Welcome brothers and sisters to this emergency meeting of the Royal Order of the Holy Mackerel.
I am this chapter's founder and it's duly appointed High Exalted Big Fish, Douglas MacKrell.
As folks who have been following our meetings for the past few weeks know full well - I
hosted a giveaway to celebrate the fact that I had gained 500 subscribers. This giveaway
was a way to thank the fantastic people who were tackling each week's challenge and really
interacting in the society.
So for this giveaway, I decided the best way repay all of my followers was to create a
physical Membership Kit. Sure, there are weekly rewards they could get their hands on by tackling
the challenges, but I wanted to craft something more tangible than that. Something stuffed
with cool secrets and keepsakes! I wanted to create a Membership Kit that I would personally
love to have and would proudly own. So I got to work.
The construction and design of the Membership Kits took some time. Mostly because I had
to hunt down parts, and have various pieces printed professionally - and then wait for
those parts and pieces to be delivered. Well, as of last night, I finally received the last
parts I needed to complete the kits!
Each Membership Kit is enclosed in a top secret envelope, and inside you'll find a professionally
printed and wallet-sized Official Royal Order of the Holy Mackerel Membership Card, a personalized,
foil embossed, and personally signed Certificate of Membership, and a Royal Order of the Holy
Mackerel magnet for your fridge, locker, or other metal thing!
You'll also receive prints of every reward I've created for the Royal Order - all the
way up to this week's reward, Bill Cipher's Maze! But that's not all! You'll also get
a Master Cipher for every code used in both Gravity Falls AND the ones I've created specifically
for the Royal Order of the Holy Mackerel. That means you'll also be getting color prints
of BOTH of the Royal Order of the Holy Mackerel secret decoder disks AND the Alchemy Font
cipher!
And there's still more! Each Membership Kit will also receive a personal welcome letter
from myself, The High Exalted Big Fish, a special invisible ink pen that only reveals
it's messages under ultraviolet light, and an Official Royal Order of the Holy Mackerel
Secret Decoder Ring! This ring has it's own specific secret code - so I'll also include
a special secret message that can only be decoded by that ring!
Each one of these personally built Membership Kits will be unique. Not only will it be personalized
for you and printed with your name or nickname throughout - but each will have secret invisible
handwritten messages scrawled across everything inside and outside. These Membership Kits
are made with my own blood, sweat, tears, and other various bodily fluids, and as such
- no two will be exactly the same.
For those who won the original 500 Subscribers Giveaway - I should have these put together
and in the mail this Friday - possibly Saturday . With good shipping luck - those in the states
will receive theirs early next week! I'm unsure how long it will take for the kits traveling
overseas - but hopefully not too much longer than that.
Also, I'm proud to announce the open entry for my 1250 Subscriber Giveaway! Most of the
rules are the same as my first giveaway - so if you have any questions, you can watch the
previous announcement here for a breakdown of all the rules. I am changing one thing
though - And I'm sorry for this - but I'm restricting entry to only those who are in
the United States. I know this sucks! But I didn't expect to hit this many subscribers
so soon! So I do need a little more time to recharge my wallet before I attempt another
global giveaway.
This Giveaway will have 3 winners, and the entry time is a LOT shorter. You have until
Midnight eastern standard time THIS SATURDAY January the 18th to fill out the form below
and enter. Much like last time, I'll shoot and upload a short screen capture video of
the drawing on Sunday the 19th declaring the winners.
You'll find all of the rules and restrictions written in the About section below this video
- and remember. I need you to fill out the form with your Full legal name and an active
email address I can reach you at easily. I won't accept entries from nicknames, and I
won't hunt you down if you win. So make sure the email you enter with works or you won't
get your Membership Kit.
I know I said I would announce the opening of a small store to handle orders of the Membership
Kit for members - like myself - who need to get their hands on one of these. The bad news
is that I'm still setting it up. The good news is that the hold up is over pricing.
I'm trying to get the price as low as possible so that I'm not losing my shirt over selling
these. I don't want to gouge my members.
I'm also on the fence about deconstructing the kit and offering parts of it individually
for those who want to save money, but still want to get their hands on printings of the
rewards or just the decoder ring separately. If this sounds good to you - let me know in
the comments below! I should have the store open in a few days - and I'll officially announce
it this coming Tuesday!
With no other orders of business I hereby call a close to this emergency meeting. Remember
- you have just three days to enter for the Giveaway so do so right now! Until next time,
share, subscribe, and keep cracking those codes!
Okami-G asks: Which TV program from Gravity Falls come to reality: Duck-tective, Tiger
Fist, or the Duchess Approves? This is a hard question - because if The Dutchess Approves
is anything like Dark Shadows, I would watch every episode of that. But most likely, I
would be a huge fan of Tiger Fist. Especially if Tiger Fist fights bigfoot like the 6 million
dollar man. Who really fought a bigfoot! Look it up!
