Edit: Event has finished, hope you all enjoyed your presents :)

 

 

 

So for the money to send him this year, the clue from the newspaper is:

 

I wanna wish yous a merry christmas, from the bottom of my heart. But I can’t cause my friggin record player broke. Piece of dumb CRAP. - Shirley Prima Dante Calabrese

 

1970 = year Feliz Navidad was first released (the song these lyrics are from)

 

Remember - you can repeat this 6 hours after you receive the present (which you get on the following 15 minute tick) so can do this 3 times today :)

 

Edit - Also remember, these presents can contain ANYTHING, including horses heads - treat them like any other unexpected gift and use your energy/nerve before opening :)

It worked. Gift received.

God I went way too in depth for thinking about it then. 

each sentance has 13 characters. Presuming the name doesn’t count. So I had originally sent just $13

You get a random present he had - can be anything he had been sent in a mission, or anything anyone else sent him to be a jerk (don't underestimate players sending him horseheads so that they get re-distributed at Christmas)

I just did an attacking mission before sending him the money
