It’s that time of year we’ve all been waiting for: Canadian Thanksgiving!

Rules:
1) Winners will be determined by random.org, however final determination of awards is up to me
2) Initial list will include 15 games, and every 1-2 days I will choose a winner for one game. The GA is scheduled to go until all games are gone, but I reserve the right to close it early if there is no interest in the remaining games, or at the end of the month.
3) You may only win one. I may alter this however if I add additional games later or if interest is thin.
4) There is no rep requirement, however your account must show a join date of Mar 2015 or sooner to enter.
5) You may enter for someone else, even someone who doesn’t meet #4 [edit for correction], provided you do meet #4.
6) If you are concerned about a particular entrant, please PM me privately.

To enter:
Say, “I’m in for __game___” and

1) Either
A) Talk briefly about something you are thankful for in your own life, and/or
B) Say something nice / express thanks for another GoG forum member

Additional Entries in the draw will be granted for:
2) Linking to your participation here http://www.gog.com/forum/general/the_directory_of_public_wishlists
3) Saying something nice about Canada or someone from Canada, eh. (Entries containing nekkid photos of Justin Bieber will be disqualified.)

In all each entrant can garner 4 entries (1a/1b/2/3)

Edit: Intended to add to rule 3 but neglected to, but the wording was carefully chosen that you can only 'win' one, at least until further notice. However if you lose a draw, you can re-enter for a different game still on the board. E.g. if Trine2 is the next draw, the non-winner out of Leonard/Paladin would be free to re-enter for a different game still in play.

You don't need to list new things that you're thankful for - you may simply make a new post that links your initial entry (or notes the post#) and specifies which game you are updating to enter for.

Thank you so much for the giveaway, Bler! You beat me to my USA Thanksgiving giveaway lol! Not in, but good luck to all the entrants!

Thank you for the giveaway and for again promoting the Directory of Public Wishlists. +1.

Not in, but would like to take this opportunity to thank Adaliabooks and to draw people's attention to the suite of GOG enhancements he has released recently, aptly named Adalia Fundamentals. It is highly recommended. If you're already using Barefoot Essentials, it is really essential to supplement it with Adalia Fundlamentals, and if you're not, you should seriously consider installing both, for they are indeed essential and fundamental.

Thanks bler144!

I'm in for Tetrobot & Co. I love those type of puzzle games and this one seems to have excellent reviews.

As to what I'm thankful for: I'm thankful for having very recently met the perfect girl. Best. Ever.

About Canada: I'm sorry to say that my view of Canada is tainted by the South Park marathon that i recently did and when I think of Canadians I get the image of people with funny voices and large head-bisecting mouths.
However, I can say something nice about someone from Canada: I'd like to thank _Slaugh_ who is one of the best forum members here (other than the host of this GA ;)) for bringing lots of positivity to this community.

Not in, just had to come and say thanks to mrkgnao for the thanks and the promotion :)
I'm in for: cookies. Virtual cookies.

Or just a photo of any cookies of your choosing! :)

Not in, but the topic title drew me in - can you tell me more about Canadian thanksgiving? How do you personally celebrate it, is it in any way different from the usual celebrations? :) +1 for the giveaway!
Hmm. Is Canadian Thanksgiving history different from the US one ? or is it the same ?

Not in. But something about Canadian : I actually like how they use "eh" at the end of the sentence when they talk.
