Now that this is underway, I'll start getting my ducks in a row for the Holiday Raffle. No promises, but I'll aim to have a thread up to get things started sometime this weekend. I've got to order my sweater:

I'm finally back online! Sorry to hear about your kitchen mishap @HollyJollyOne. Glad everything is ok. Thanks for finishing up the raffle when I had to bail. I really enjoy my time on the boards and I was happy to help out as a small way to give back. Honestly, my "help" was pretty much limited to the 5 hours I spent doing this thread yesterday. @HolidayHam and @HollyJollyOne did the lion's share of the work for the month+ leading up to it. The reminder posts, thread updates, and submission forms was all them. Thanks to you guys for keeping this fun tradition alive! And thanks to everyone (even @greggy) who stopped by and participated in the thread yesterday. It really flew by and I had a lot of fun. I hope to see you all at next year's raffle!

Unfortunately I won't be able to finish this one out all the way to the end. I'll leave you in the capable hands of @HollyJollyOne Just a recap, @Arak Zantara and @worldsbestcomics are currently skipped and could come back at any time. No forms were submitted. It's been fun! I'll check in later tonight if there are any issues. Thanks guys!

@HaupiaCheck out the spoilertag. Anything without a line through it is available.
