The Twelve Days of Caelmas 2013

On the seventh day of Caelmas, Caelestis gave to me...

...[strike]ALIENS[/strike] the Nine-Pipe Problem!

A big shout out to Radio, who had fifty-seven ubercharges recorded today and takes home the Nine-Pipe Problem, one of the many shifty and gently used items in my backpack! We settled on that item after it became clear she had every other Medic item in the universe.

Also, my apologies for bringing my entire entourage into her TS room as one of the unintended consequences of being incredibly charismatic.

Day Eight begins! This one's an easy one, kids.

Record, in screenshots, the most kills with the Axtinguisher.​

...a Cremator's Conscience!

Honorbound easily wins today's Caelmas present, the Cremator's Conscience. Now, even when he's burned up everyone on the battlefield, he'll never be lonely! And that's what Caelmas is all about.*

Onward to the ninth challenge of Caelmas:

Record, in screenshots, the most taunt-kills as a Demoman.​



*The burning people up part, not the never being lonely part.

...or, that would've been the prize if jhnsn didn't already have it. So he gets to revel in receiving the Lights, Camera, Action! forum achievement for his video of his experiences in trying to do today's Caelmas challenge. Happy days abound!​

Let the tenth day begin! Again, this is an easy one: most dominations as Scout.
 
Much as I'm entertained by someone hurting Kazoo, those old screenshots are ineligible. It looks like nobody wanted to claim today's prize. Oh well. I guess there's nothing to do but look forward to the eleventh day. Maybe someone will try for this one:

The Greek aphorism "Know Thyself" is the title of a musical track for a deleted boss fight in which video game?​

First one to PM me the answer on the forum wins!

...a copy of Sonic the Hedgehog!

Amazing what a little willingness to play my games does, right? Sonic Team developed a game for the Sega Saturn in the late 90s and one of its scrapped ideas for a boss was the character Selph, whose theme was Know Thyself!

(interestingly, or maybe not if you're dull, "know thyself" is an aphorism attributed to the Greek sage Thales of Miletos)

That game was called NiGHTS Into Dreams... And since NiGHTS Into Dreams... was developed by Sonic Team, today's prize is the Sonic Team classic Sonic the Hedgehog for the MegaDrive/Genesis. Give your congratulations to Tomain, who takes home this sweet prize on Steam!

All right! Last day of Caelmas is tomorrow. Sad, isn't it? I know, but let us not end on a sad note:

Let's see your funniest replay video.

It doesn't have to be a recent replay. It can be from whenever. It must be a Team Fortress 2 replay.​
 
Taunt kill on our favorite medic-heavy combo.

...festive Jarate!

Jhnsn's video was a prime example of the giving spirit of the holidays. ;)

Caelmas has passed, but don't feel too badly. Part of the fun is in waiting for this happiest of holidays. Thanks to everyone who participated, congratulations to everyone who won, and see you next year!​

Smissmas? More like "Pissmas", amirite?
