ARC winners for the latest giveaway!

First up, sorry for the delay: I decided that I hadn't spent enough quality time with the exciting stomach bug that's touring around the country and became vilely ill to make up for it. Details are not forthcoming. You're welcome. Technically, I'm still ill, but I can at least sit up and type now, which is more than I could manage yesterday.

Because so many people had great "why I should win a copy of Discount Armageddon" answers, and because I am still sick, I gave up on being arbitrary and leaned on the random number generator instead. Our winners are...

jhyanmar
kalenodonnell

But because I did say I was going to be arbitrary, and because I found a few extra ARCs in my mailbox yesterday, I am also going to send a copy to...

thebluerose

Because New Zealand needs cryptids.

If you're one of our winners, please send me your mailing address via my website contact form within the next twenty-four hours. If I don't have your contact info by then, I'll choose a new winner. (thebluerose, you and I will also need to work out shipping; we can do that after you contact me.)

For everybody else: what kind of giveaway should we do next? LOLcryptids? Poetry? Art? Cookies? The sky's the limit, and I want to know what you think.

And now I'm gonna go lie down.

Yes, the platypus has a poisonous spur on it's back leg. It really does need some sort of defence, they're smaller than you'd think and very shy, although extraordinarily cute.

I want a weta, but my office mates say that if I get one, I am not allowed to bring it to work. Sillies. (I know I can't actually HAVE a weta; this does not change the wanting.)

I have the same want of a monkey, preferably a squirrel monkey or a marmoset.

Would it help your co-workers to know that they can survive freezing, have changed very little in the last 100000 and that cave wetas can jump two metres?

Cause I mean who wouldn't be impressed by that?

It impresses me, but sadly, I think it would just convince them that weta were designed by Satan for the sole purpose of making everyone else miserable. Forever.

Satan or possibly Peter Jackson...
