Since Thanksgiving is tomorrow, I thought I'd make a topic about it and wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving on the Spiral Knights Forums. (I know this is the wrong section but I thought more people might see it this way)

So let's talk about what we're thankful for, be it from Spiral Knights, Family, or whatever and I'll start off:

I'm thankful for Spiral Knights helping me with something long ago and their amazing Gamemasters. I have never seen such gamemasters be as responsive as they are compared to any other MMO I have played. I honestly feel you guys are the best of the best.

Non-Spiral Knights I'm thankful for my Family and Friends, even if they annoy me I still care for them as they've helped me get through some hard times. I plan on spending tomorrow with them and having a fantastic dinner with them.

I have no mouth and I need to scream

Man Glacies, you don't hold back. Your backhand is too strong.

I'm thankful for some friends of mine showing me this game. It pretty much has almost everything I like in mmo's with action pace fighting. And seeing the nice looking weapons and those to come in the future, whatever (guns) they may be.

Good job Nick and your team of developers. No really, I mean this. It's not a trick.

For those who don't celebrate thanksgiving. Here's what you do. Find your nearest loved one or someone you like, and spend time with them. that's it. You don't have to shove your faces full of cooked snipes to celebrate thanksgiving.

I'm a snipe that is a sniper! (Just add sunglasses)

I'm grateful for the high energy prices.
I'm grateful for the incredible radiant crystal drop rate.
I'm grateful for the amazing drop rate of elite orbs.
Anything else I should be grateful for?

I'm thankful for the roof over my head, the warm food on my table and the bed I sleep in. Oh and everything else that I have in life, good or bad, as long as you get through it, it makes you a better person. So I am thankful for everything god has given me.

See, this is why people don't

See, this is why people don't post anything in Gremlin Chatter-

http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/93634

Half of everyone disregards that entire subforum because of all the junk in it.

Time this thread has been up: 3 hours
Time the same exact thread in gremlin chatter has been up: 1 day

Now, which one has more responses?

I was under the impression everyone went to the Bazaar and General Discussion sub forums. Every other forum you go to if your thread was moved there by an admin.

You are experiencing a PICNIC ERROR!

Well, Gremlin Chatter is never anything related to the game...

If people want non-SK stuff, they usually go to Facebook or something...

I'm thankful for the big turkey we have! (Among other things.) Maybe the turkey will last for more than a 3 days... lol

I"m thankful for this game, which my brother (Lycheesoup) and I have been playing for nearly 3 years. It's been a great way for us to keep in touch, and something to bring us a bit closer.

I'm thankful for my fiancee, and her support in all the things we do. She even lets me play SK, and treats my kids like her own.

I'm thankful for my brother, who keeps me sane and grounded through the hard times, and truly is my best friend.

I"m thankful to the guys and gals of The Nights Watch for dealing with my folly, and for giving me a refuge from some of the problems of daily life.

Lastly, I'm thankful to my employer, because without them, I wouldn't be getting paid while I post this, when I poop. Also, they give me the money to spend capriciously on this game.

Happy 'Merican Thanksgivnig y'all! ( We all know Thanksgiving is actually in October.)

Fehzor, I had no idea that topic was there and you pretty much explained why I don't go there ever. Other than that, sorry that this is a duplicate of what is pretty much an already existing topic.

And for the sake of staying on topic, I'm thankful that Fehzor is back, I missed him even though he's not on my Friend's List. (He should be though!)

I honestly didn't mean to derail this. Was just pointing one little thing out- now then:

I'm thankful for Science, without which our ideals would mean nothing.

I am thankful of nothing, I am here because I decided to, it is my descision alone and nobody else's. I pray to no one nor would I be prayed to, so I am thankful of myself... I guess...

I'm thankful for

Engineering, without which science would just be theory.

My drill instructors, for beating discipline into me for the past six months.

And chicken-fried steak.

I'm thankful I don't

I'm thankful I don't celebrate Thanksgiving, but I'm not thankful so few people regard the fact that it's a mainly American thing.

why not both?

Actually, we can only confirm that he's a [bucket], as evidenced by his post. So far, he has not submitted proof of being a DJ.

I dunno. He never called himself a [bucket]. How do we even know DJ is a he, anyway?

I'm thankful for the wonderful developers who bring us SK, laboring to create the beautiful work of art that is this game, and I am also thankful that they went with their guts and pushed the gunner update back to January instead of giving us something that they felt was not good enough, quality is everything.

@Alphacommando
You're another one of those grumpy European types that gets bitter over American holidays even though it doesn't effect you, amirite? Even if you aren't European this still applies. (note that I don't think all Europeans are like this, just a small but vocal few)

It's cool man, don't worry about folk like that. Some people get offended that others have the audacity to post anything that is country specific. You know, those people who get offended by a "Merry Christmas" wish because they don't celebrate it.

@Alpha

So you have nothing to be thankful for at all? Aside from not celebrating Thanksgiving, I mean.

Thanks for defending me... (was that your intention? IDK) But no, I am not a bucket nor am I a DJ or a grill( in Rl, no, I do not play music at the nightclub).

@Perronius
If there is one person I should be thankful to, it would be nature herself, she made the Earth beneath me the way it is and she never tried to justify her actions, she made the things the way they are because she wanted it. She never allowed others to temper with the way she lived and she punished those who dared to defy her. She is the one that I loved (yes, I am a man, thus loving a woman is completely natural).

I still want to stay alive, watch nature have her way with the world, while enjoying my own inside her tight embrace, because I know, that one day, I will return back to earth and be by her side atlast, there is no need for haste, time will come...
