D&D 5E D&D Beyond 12 Days of Christmas 2024

I never get why online stores need my phone number. It’s not like they’re going to call me.

I happen to know this professionally! It's to give the number to FedEx or UPS for the package, and Beyond's system at this time i fully integrated for physical shipments.

Cool, thanks!

If you don't want to give your address, just give them 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20500. Phone number? 555-123-4567. Done.

I don't see what the big issue is, they just have a consolidated checkout system.

You’re going to get so many Christmas presents from ENworlders now.

Well, someone is. I take it you don't recognize the address for the White House?

Nah, I’m Canadian. I kind of wish I’d gotten the joke

Today's Icewind Dale dice set isn't one I had. Presumably it was a preorder bonus or something.

This is my regularly scheduled complaint that the 12 days of Christmas don't start until Christmas

If only there was a convenient word for before Christmas...like Advent.

Right, but Advent is meant to cover the 24 days before Christmas ... whereas the "12 Days of Christmas" is specifically Christmas Day plus the 11 days afterwards. So doing a "12 Days of Christmas" leading up to Christmas is something else.

It seems to be a newish trend. My wife was looking for Advent Calendars for our daughters and was having trouble finding the standard 24-day ones. Mostly she was seeing 12-day ones.
