But for now I'll go with Plum and Immortalia.

There are nice entries indeed!
I vote for Immortalia and PluM! For some reason I find the no context clip of fire being randomly dumped on a cake amusing.
Thanks guys!

For the context, it's a plum pudding. It references the tradition (not sure how widespread?) where brandy is poured on plum pudding at Christmas and set alight. The original thought process was documented here:

Ah, I thought it looked like an alcohol fire. I just couldn't recall the term at the time. I was going to call it liquid fire originally!
The fact that it's plum pudding being set alight makes it even funnier.

We reached the dead-line, so here you have the final results!
- Immortalia: 7 votes
- Steo: 4 votes
- Hoodcom: 3 votes
- Elite, Plum: 2 votes
It seems we have a clear winner this time, so... Many congratulations, Immortalia! If I'm not wrong, this is your
1st win, and what a way to win! Enjoy those shiny
800 tings from the jackpot

As this is your first win, remember that you can contact an administrator to get your special rank. Don't worry about your Christmas rank, you can get it once we're done with Christmas season.
Wait, I've just received a private message...
Santa!? He has a little surprise?? Please, Santa, can you come here and explain further?

Ho ho ho! I've come with a little surprise for my good boys. 'Tis the season to be jolly after all, so Santa will give a compensation for all the good boys who didn't win! I've made some calculus, so let me check my notes...
Howdy, my dear Santa! I’m just sending you a quick message because I’m curious if Santa reads and/or answers PM messages. Hope you don’t mind it.
Wishing you the Merriest Christmas of all time! 
Oh no, I forgot to answer my good boy
Fifo! Merry Christmas to you!
I think I got it... Here it is! So, if 7 votes corresponded to 800 tings, here's my calculus. I'm good at giving presents, but not at Maths, so maybe I'm wrong here!
- Steo (4 votes): 460 tings
- Hoodcom (3 votes) 343 tings
- PluM and Elite (2 votes): 230 tings
- mikemoron (0 votes): 100 tings
Enjoy those tings, my little boys!
Merry Christmas and see you next year!

You're very kind, Santa. I don't doubt they'll appreciate your little surprise. Take care of your reindeers and see you next year!
Now, it's time to think about the next SOTM. I saw there weren't any Rayman themed entries this year, so... What can we do? Do you prefer doing a signature about a character from Rayman's universe, or a signature about Captain Laserhawk's Rayman?

I will contemplate on the shiny special rank as the holiday season closes.

Thank you everybody again!

Congrats Immortalia for winning and everyone else for the beautiful entries! I somehow missed this vote, but I know it would have been a though decision.
And thanks Santa for the jolly surprise!

Oh wow, that was an unexpected surprise! Thanks Santa!
And congratulations Immortalia on the well-deserved win!
I think a Captain-Laserhawk-related theme could be interesting in terms of what people might come up with. Of course I wouldn't have anything myself since I haven't watched the series

Okay, what about this... I'll create a poll and let the people vote what do they prefer. I'll give you some days to decide which one would you find more interesting, and we'll go with that idea.

Congrats to Immortalia and thanks Santa for the Tings!
A Captain Laserhawk theme sounds good to me (however I would like it to not be limited to just Rayman).

No worries Mike, there's always next time.
As for me, I'll only be participating in the freestyle themed ones anyway, since I'll always favor my character Reese in my signature.

Wow, I didn't expect both of the ideas to be extremely close in the final count. As most of you really liked the idea, the next one it will be about any character from Rayman's universe, but now we'll go with Captain Laserhawk, as it was the most voted idea
So... I'm glad to announce the start of
SOTM #154: Captain Laserhawk! Initially, I was thinking about only Rayman related signatures, but I liked Elite's idea, so you can think about anything related to the series (landscape, any of the characters...) for your signature. The dead line will be on
January the 22nd. Many people participated in the last one, so hopefully we can see some interesting signatures this month. Good luck!
