Stranger Christmas Card!
 
Yay! I got my Stranger card today! Thank you OWI!

Now...I'm not going to include a scan of the card. That wouldn't be fair, because I want the people across the country and overseas to be surprised when they get their card. The only reason I got my card early is because I live fairly close to OWI.

I can tell you all one thing though...it's blue.

Anyway, when we all get our cards we can...err, talk about it and be all happy. :happy:

Curse you oddguy!

Though I agree, I don't want it to be spoiled for me. Although, blue? Seem out of touch with the recent shades of yellow, brown, orange and red we've had going on with the Western themes. Still, I can't wait :D

Xavier 12-12-2004 09:36 AM

can't wait too.. I guess I'll get it within a few days...
I'm so excited about it!!!

Blue? well that's a change
perhaps it's about the mongo river :p

And I live in the Netherlands, so other closer country's should have it too.

Rincewynd 12-13-2004 08:06 AM

Software Bug 12-13-2004 08:23 AM

Xavier 12-13-2004 09:47 AM

erwinraaben55 12-13-2004 11:22 AM

Even my dad really liked the card, he loves the cowboy LOL.

Erts 12-13-2004 02:14 PM

How'd you guys get the ODI card?

Nate 12-13-2004 02:19 PM

A few years back you could register on the OWI website to be a part of the Rehab & Tea club.

I'm guessing now that the only way to get into it now is to email alf with your details (inc address of course) alf@oddworld.com

Al the Vykker 12-13-2004 03:18 PM

I got mine today while I was at home sick. Very nice once more as always and a big round of applause for OWI. Especially being hand signed by good ol Alf himself. It's nice to be remembered when your having a really awful day and week.:fuzsmile:

And I thought the blue was a very nice touch this year it fits with the picture.

KintoKid 12-13-2004 03:31 PM

Got mine Sunday, but I think it came on Saturday.

Really like the card, especially the stuff in the background, which gives the card a fitting mood.

Also, I really like how OWI is devoted enough to do this every year. Don't know of any other game companies as devoted to their fans as OWI is.

The place to sign up for the comoddities (what this stuff is, basically) can still be reached via the bottom of Oddworld Inhabitants' main page. The link to sign up is: http://www.oddworld.com/contact.shtml

I also have received the card just now! It looks fantastic! This is the third Oddworld related item I've received in the mail in three days! Happy happy joy joy!

I got my card through today. Lovely picture on the front :) Thanks for leaving it as a surprise.

Fuzzle Guy 12-14-2004 08:16 AM

I got mine today too. I like it.

Elodie 12-14-2004 08:17 AM

Wow, I've never got a card from a game company before, or even a company, sure I've got leflets and stuff, but a card is a nice personal touch. I just want to say a really big thank-you to everyone at Oddworld Inhabitants for taking the care to do this, especially since they are signed by what looks "Alf"! great stuff, love it.

My First Card
 
I got mine today, its the first OWI card I've got and its really cool. I love the pictures on the inside, and the way someones actually signed Alf by hand. Dedication, that.

Wil 12-14-2004 09:46 AM

I got my card. Heh, it made me laugh to see the ______ with the _______ ____. Oddworld Inhabitants is a fantastic company to love, because they love right back.

Fez 12-14-2004 09:50 AM

I got mine, its so nice:D

Esus 12-14-2004 11:08 AM

Were there any Christmas cards sent out before Christmas 2001? If so, what card was it?

ANN NEELY 12-14-2004 11:22 AM

SPONTAINEOUS EXPLOSION!!! *Boom*
 
Got mine yesterday!:cheer: My parents were lucky they weren't home to hear me squealing like a school girl...
I'm going to frame it like my last card!
-:beer:

T-nex 12-14-2004 11:23 AM

I haven't got mine yet. But seeing you talking so positive about it amkes me even more impatient... I WANT MY CARD!!... umm... sorry... :p

paramiteabe 12-14-2004 12:09 PM

Hmm haven't recieved mine yet but I think its because I moved and I have a change of address. I think I am going to let Alf know my new address so they can send the card to the new address.

Paramiteabe... :fuzblink:

Oddish 12-14-2004 01:41 PM

Still don't have mine... and I hope I receve it. I never card OW thing before (apart from the games)

Di$array 12-15-2004 03:57 AM

it's a great gift :D cheers OW and thanks a butch!!!!

mawk 12-15-2004 04:29 AM

I got mine ages ago. Really pleased that it's actually signed, and not printed with a signature. Makes it worth much more when I eventually flog it for far more than it's worth on ebay.

Xavier 12-15-2004 08:29 AM

I have it!!!
I love it!!!

Thank you OWI it's absolutly superb!!!

Wil 12-15-2004 12:01 PM

Esus, I believe there's been an Oddworld Holiday Card every year since December 1996, though obviously they weren't sent out to fans at that point, there being another nine months until Odd Friday at that point.
