...is awesome.
Straight out of A Christmas Story, nice touch. :)
Good schoolyard fun in Irrisen. :-)
So which Iconics are on the card this year?

I'm waiting for Geb or the Whispering Tyrant with the lamp made out of a woman's leg.

My 11 year old looks at it and says "Cool Goblin card, Dad"
and I said "how do you know those are goblins"
and she says "Because I play Pathfinder!"

Yea, she said it like she thought it was cool too, was pretty funny. We I was a kid and played Dnd, you had to keep it secret or the nerd police would decent on you like locust.
Now, she thinks she's a bad a$$ because she kills goblins with a magus....
Crazy kids...

I'm disappointed that there isn't a scantily-clad iconic on the card this year, but only because the ensuing "Paizo is sexist!" blogs and threads are entertaining.

oh gosh I recall the Seoni card and how much grief that was.

To be honest was only D7 that did that and his blog seems to have gone the way of the dodo
You didn't think that one goblin was sexy?
I never really got why that card was so bad, considering what Seoni normally wears is much more revealing. Ah well, I've still got the bath scene when I need some cheesecake. ;)
This is my first year with Paizo, so the Christmas card came out of the blue. Never had any company send me a Christmas card before, love it. Too bad I missed the Seoni card...
Received my card and my family all thought it was great. They loved that my "game friends" sent me a card.
Thank You

I thought it was a very nice thing to get a Christmas card -- reminds me that Paizo is a company run by real people and gamers and not a board game/action figure conglomerate. Makes me sort of nostalgic. ^_^
Merry Christmas to Paizo and also to everyone here. If not into Christmas then Happy Holidays.
I liked it too.
And...well played, Paizo. The discount starts 12/12/2012. So, if the world ends, you're off the hook. ;)

Close, but its 12/21/2012. Just in case the world needs an extra week to end.
Just recieved the card Very very nice card (Although would still love a Lini one for next year.)
Also I assume the card discount is for a regular purchase and not for subscriptions?
Per the card fine print:

I presume that, as per the usual Paizo rules, the discount doesn't stack with Pathfinder Advantage?
Nothing like blowing the punchline so very publicly. ;(

This is one of those rare occasions that the discount *does* stack with other promotions and offers (subject to the terms listed above). :D
Does it work with 3PP print products?
Such as Rappan Athuk?

Yes.
Thanks for the card! The discount code was a welcome surprise :)
I hope that this year I get the Christmas Card before the promotion runs out.
DM Sothal it runs to January 31st...not sure if it has every year but this year it does. I was worried about that as well but Sara Marie set me straight.

The card alway goes to January 31st, but in the past it has gone out with the December shipment, which for us international buyers often doesn't turn up until the middle of January.
The good news is that we put up a virtual version of the card on our store blog on the 25th of December and it has the code in it that you can use. So even if you don't get the physical card until after January, you can still get the code from the virtual card.

This card is up with the rest of my christmas cards. :)

Thanks for the holiday card. I bet that gobo thought it was a giant candy cane. Just to note though, pathfinder make the goblins too cute. That should stop that so I no longer feel guilty slaughtering them. :D
How does one get a Christmas card? I've never gotten one and I have had a Paizo account for years. I've ordered stuff so I know that my address is good.
What's the dealio?
Wow, it was in my subscription package that arrived yesterday! That is really great!
@The Terrible Zodin: I think up until now it was a 'subscribers only' thing.

Thanks. That actually makes a lot of sense.
Nope, I've never been a subscriber and I've got one this year and last year.
All subscribers who receive a December shipment get one; other customers have gotten them "at random" or possibly due to an incredibly complex algorithm over the years. :)
As stated above, however, the card is always in the store blog in digital form at Christmas with fully functional discount code so everyone can get in on the savings.

I suspect there is a window of orders that get them (something like "when they arrive in the warehouse, until we run out"), and if you place an order during that period (and presumably haven't already been sent one) you get a card.
Yay! Finally got mine. Was actually expecting the NPC Codex cover with lots of Santa Claus-look-alikes but this one's cool too.
Ruyan.
Reminds me of "The Christmas Story" I like!
A pleasant surprise today. Makes me remember why I support Paizo products.

Dude...you're a venture-lieutenant...you have a PFS subscription by default. :P
I wasn't last year and still got it. :P~~

Received mine this week, first holiday card of the year. Thanks to all the awesome folks at Paizo.

Might be related to the amount of money spent during the year or something.
It's complicated enough that I don't remember the answer off the top of my head.
