On the thirteenth day of Hogswatch, your Seanan gave away...

...a MYSTERY!

Welcome to the thirteenth of the Twelve Days of Hogswatch. This is the last giveaway, and is numerically surprising. Surprise! Each giveaway will have different rules, and a different deadline, although all prizes will be mailed on December 29th, because I am bad at going to the post office (and also, still mailing shirts).

The thirteenth giveaway is for a mystery prize. What is it? NO ONE KNOWS, NOT EVEN ME. This is going to be a random number drawing, because that's working well so far.

1. To enter, comment on this post.
2. If you are international, indicate that you are willing/able to pay postage.
3. Tell me one thing you hope your prize is not. Do not tell me what you hope it is; if you do that, you will be ineligible to win.

I will choose the winner at 1PM PST on Sunday, December 27th.

MYSTERY PRIZE!

Game on!

I hope it's not a Vestiarium sapiens... That would be creepy. And also probably pretty hard to ship to the US.

1) check
2) I am in the US, and therefore unwilling to pay international postage. Fortunately, while USPS will cheerfully send something from Louisiana to Idaho and THEN to me in New Mexico, they have as yet not randomly included Canada in this. >_<
3) I hope it's not rabid. Rabies would interfere with my intentions to have a better year next year.

Oooh, mysteries!
I'm in the US, and I hope it's not... the taxidermic head of a stuffed otter. Because how would I explain receiving that to anyone I know?

Hooray surprise prize!

I hope that it is not a very small t-shirt, as none of my family would be able to wear it!

Ooooh a mystery! Me! USA

I hope that the mystery prize was not something that ever walked, creeped, crawler, hopped, fly or swam.

I hope the prize is not cookies. I have an excess of cookies in my house right now.

I really hope that it's not a damaged book, that would make me super sad :(

A bobcat in a box ( I really don't think it would enjoy being posted ).

I hope it is not a genetically engineered tapeworm or two-vaccines-gone-rogue.

Yes, I will pay for postage to Canada!

Not an Elder God

I don't have the space for Cthulhu and really, the insanity aspect is a total downer.

But I am in the US and on the coast (albeit Pacific) so if he made his way here I guess, he could hang with the cats and lizard.

I hope it's not a maine coon. There's too many allergic people in my house, sadly.

Here is my comment, and I am in the US.

And I sincerely hope that it is NOT the Glow Cloud (ALL HAIL THE GLOW CLOUD), mostly because I'm not sure how I would explain the rain of dead animals.

1. Comment
2. I am in the US but would still be willing to pay postage
3. I hope that my prize is not banana-flavored tapioca pudding thrown at me by a rabid monkey

I don't know if I'm in time or not--but I love a good mystery!
Please count me in.
(I'm in the USA but am still willing to pay postage on whatever it is. And yes, I will be well-behaved should I not win it.)

Ooh a mystery gift which I hope is not spiders.

I hope my prize is NOT... Smelly!

Oh, and while I'm not international, I am willing to pay postage - or just drive somewhere to pick it up, since you're often in my area.

I hope it isn't an abominable feline-generated mess.

Hi!

I am not international. I am USA-an.

I hope my prize is not a bloody chainsaw. Biohazards are not an appropriate gifts, and I would hate for you to have to pay postage for such a heavy gift.

i am entering!
canadian, willing to pay postage

i hope the prize is not a live terrapin, because it would never get through customs.

Ordinarily I would stop entering once I won something, but a surprise? I love surprises!

Well, ok, to be honest, I *hate* surprises. But surprise gifts? Yay!

I just hope it's not something I've won in the past (Parasite, Sparrow Hill Road CD) or spiders. You may like them, I do not.

I am in the US and I am hoping my prize is not a cat or covered in cat hair, as I am allergic. I do so enjoy the pictures of your cats though, as they are made of floof and adoreableness! Happy Hogswatch to you and yours and the lovely kitties! Also willing to pay postage!

I am in the U.S.

I hope my prize is not a pony.
