Can they survive Earth's (Urf's) bacteria?!?! i think snorks lived on urf, yeah. didn't the intro start with a diver's journal saying he saw a lot of snorks and they stopped him from drowning in his little submarine pod thing? the only snrosk intro you can get online is that stupid "SING ALONG WITH THE SNORKS, HURR ALONG WITH THE SNORKS, WIDDLY WEE THEY ARE POOING ON MEE, DURRR ALONG WITH THE SNORKS" rubbish. That was definitely NOT the snorks theme tune me and my mate used to sing on the playround (in "firing position" oddly enough - we were young and we thought it was interesting). edit TROUSERS ON.

HELLOED! Well it's about time we did today's door! Things are getting very christmassy here. we've done the tree and prsents (for other ppl, obviously my stuff isn't here yet coz snata hasn't been) but not tinsel on walls etc. that tonight maybe But l;et's see what today's door is!! Ah, here it is. It's this guy. Hes not got number on him, but it obviously him, he's all odd look. odd man.  What an odd man. He's sat on a rocking horse to watch the world go by, and he's holding a looking glass to peer into the sky. Clearly this is a looking glass that isn't a mirror but some sort of magnifying lens. He's looking up at the star and saying "gosh it's full of snorks!" in his funny accent I noe, let's go and talk to him. Hello man with funny hair! o, he say 'hullo'. ok, What did you deduce from looking at star? o, he says, 'not much, do yow knoe much about it? there seems to be snorks!' O well. Hey, you should have a look at our funny chocolate shape we've got here.  oo! that made his ears prick up! Or it would if we could see them past his big hair. Come over here odd man. that's right, leave your rocking horse thing and do something christmassey instead, it'll be much more of a success. Here we are then, have a look at this mate. (I'm showing him door w/out number, he opne it.)  OH! When he opne the door, the windy voice come flying out... and it go swirly around, and it sound like a man shouting something, but not in a cross way, in a really fun, excited way... maybe the wind is the herald!! and it GO INTO MAN! and man go all funny-eyed like Snowman did, and he open him mouth, and he going to talk like snowman did... but no! He just say "Oh! Well! I know what shape the chocolate is. It's not a bum, that's for sure. I'm surprised you didn't guess, the clues were all there." edit - chocolate was of rocking horse. door under him bumme on the saddle but it ok he say he didn't do any trumps.

 "Think about it. The Universe collapsing in on itself. Shades of Christmas from dimensions and timelines alien to ours suddenly tangible in our world. Christmases, scattered across spacetime, suddenly meeting together in one point, and from that point a chocolate is created, the expression of a door on an advent calendar, the simplest symbol of a happy december morning. "Seeing that shape has awoken in me a sense of destiny, as though I always knew, I am the herald of Christmas. My being here somehow helps to kickstart it. "Yow know? Like it won't be here properly until my voice is heard. "And part of that is to reveal the chocolate to you! The chocolate that is created out of the sum of limitless Christmasses? And this whole thread's written by someone on the internet, which implies a level of geekishness from the outset. What else could this chocolate be? Look! Have a look!"  And he reaches up to the no-number door and removes the chocolate without number! And beneath it we can see what that shape was all along!! It's... oh! I see! Ha ha! O wait m8s! That bloke ... what's that he's holding anyway? ...well anyway he's eating the chocolate! The Herald of Christmas is eating the chocolate and  BOOSH! And CHRISTMAS POWARZE go into him!! And then he opens up him gobbe and brings in the beginning of christmas with a big excited shout - the SAME SHOUT WE HEARD IN THE WIND CARRIED BY THE CHRISMAST STAR!!  IT'S CHRIIIIIIIIIISTMMAAAAAAAAAAARRSE!!!! And suddenly the huge star FLARE UP, which probbly kill the snorks tbh i hope they don't mind, but anyway it FLARE UP and go BOOOOOOOO, and out of it out of star steps a figure wreathed in light and flanked by the buttrefly's that carry the star And just as I'm watching this dude approach, i look over to the door and see the picture that was behind the chocolate, and the answer to the puzzle  CHRISTMAS ON INFINITE EARTHS!!!!

 It's the ANCIENT ELF, Burgess Meredith! He's the head elf until Dooley grows up probbly. Burgess is here from the Star of Christmas, because of CHRISTMAS ON INFINITE EARTHS! All the Christmasses ever in different dimensions and also time are here at once, and so accompanying Ancient Elf on him's travels are The THREE SPIRITS OF CHRISTMAS PAST PRESENT AND FUTAR  Burgess look at us and him say wise words: "Greetings. I am addressing now those who would observe these events in the future. My knowledge of the future reveals that all this will be depicted in an advent calendar one day. And that calendar will have been so full of merry adventure that several doors will have been missed, chocolates uneaten - even materials other than chocolate may have been eaten in chocolate's stead. To right this wrong I hereby grant to you the readers of the calendar all the missing, skipped or substituted chocolates. Including today's! It's this door here behind me look it's got a chocolate in. Eat up and be merry!" Then he move over to the sley and look at baby snata.  "Ah, yes! Since the dawns of time we have prophecied the coming of a Chosen One, and this Chosen One would be kind of heart, and would wee on Dooley. And he will grow up to deliver all the toys we can create to all the children of the world, and all this, in one night. Then all those within the sound of my voice, and all the people of the world know that from this day forth, now and forever, this baby will be destined to become Snata." And there a bright light from the star... AND LOOK AT THE BABY SNATA NOW!!  HE'S GOT HIS BEARD!!!! And Ancient Elf now turn around to leave back into the star with the spirits of Christmas, and he turn to us and he explain: "I will return inside this star to its place of origin, and the fires of its heart (and its snorks) will seal the rift in reality. This means that tomorrow, on Christmas day, everything will be a bit mental but extremely Christmassey and excellent as the rift remains open. Then, afterwards, it will all be back to normal. Enjoy it while it lasts. And... keep looking. The calendar doesn't end here. There's still one more door." AND THEN HIM GONE, and star goe flyuing away into CHRISTMAS SPACE!!!

M8s and ladym8s IT IS NEARLY CHRISTMAS and Ancient Elf has told us there's one final door left! ONE LAST DOOR But I still can't find it!!! where is it? Not in the stable where reindeer are kept Not in the sleigh where snata claus slept Not in the elven folk coming to see Not in the bucket of snata claus wee Not in the mince pies and cinnamon loaf Not in the mother or father (or both) Not in the presents the meeces have stolen Nor in a reindeer, lodged deep in his colon Not in the mecha, I hasten to mention, Who just clambered free into our own dimension And not in the star hanging high overhead That's a vendor of japanese pants, as I said. So where can it be? WHERE CAN IT BE? WHERE CAN IT WHO CAN IT WHAT CAN IT BE! (I certainly hope it's not you and not me) But what... can it ... be?

Oh my goodness! This is the most excellent news I have ever heard. Baby

his growth from infant to manfant.

HELLOED MATES THE FINAL DOOR! It's the WHOLE CALENDAR! THAT'S WHY I COULDN'T FIND IT! YES!! Peel back the very side of the advent calendar itself - for the WHOLE CALENDAR makes up the final door! The WHOLE THING peels away! And underneath, as this glorious final flap peels aside, we see an entirely new scene! The stable has gone crazy! The people within have gone mental!  Baby Snata has lifted into the air and is firing laser beams! Daddy and Mummy Snata are fighting with Lightsabres! Dooley isn't being wee'd on, he's got a Wii for Christmas! The Snowman is here but he's a bit older! The Snorks are attacking from space! Burgess Meredith is floating around, carried by his butterflies! The Mecha Snata has the whole stable gripped within one gigantic claw and is slowly crushing the roof! The radioactive spider has turned black and is handing out presents which are really alien mutagena which will take over the bodies of anyone who opens them! And above all this, the beaming face of sant nick grins down from space, wearing his trademark red hat and electronic internal face implants. HERE IT IS! THE FINAL DOOR, FOR YOU TO ENJOY!!  Click here for 1024x768 (with borders)  Click here for ENORMOUS 1680x1050! And thus concludes our adventure! HELLO CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!! ...And seriously, I hope everyone had a great day. It's twenty to midnight here and we've had a fantastic time. I've really had a good laugh getting this done every day this month - I've actually Drawn Every Day! Creative Convention would be proud! Thanks to The elves! Good old Dooley!  Duddley!  Burgess the Ancient Elf!  And of course, our old friend... The giant hovering head of actor Richard Burton!!  Plus Abby, for making sure I did an entry every day, and of course everyone who replied to this thread. And to alt.digi and the hahs, and #gbs-fm, for thinking this was a good idea in the first place and sort of egging me on. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Thanks chaps. I spent so long making it I'm glad someone saw it. I was
talking to a friend of mine last night who said he didn't (and implied
he wouldn't) read the thread because he thought a thread about what was
in each other's advent calendars would be really dull. I guess I
should've made the idea a bit clearer in post 1.

Thanks for this amazing thread bumlor. I actually looked forward to
seeing what great and creative pictures you could bring us every day
and am very thankful you kept drawing the entire time. Words can't
express how much this thread has cheered me up this entire month.

No, thank you! The little comments and conversations we had were what
kept me doing this every day, and I honestly thought I didn't have it
in me to draw EVERY DAY for a month. Even simple drawings made to look
like MSpaints. It was quite an experience. Also, that bit where I said I was fed up and wasn't going to do it any more, that was honestly just part of that week's door. There wasn't any danger of me quitting by that point, since I was already working on door 25!

Thanks for sitting through all of it! I've been meaning to post in here again to see if anyone would be interested in my selling a few of the drawings in SAmart. I've just got a few sketches lying around really, the Mechasnata (which is a full-page pencil sketch that I then traced over MSPaint style), the big smiley sky santa, the lightsaber fight, basically everything from page 25. Page 25 is done in ridiculously high res, so I could make some prints of it or something?
