Christmas Giveaway results!

General
Okay, time to call it a rap on the christmas giveaway. First off, thanks to all who took the time for this. Over the week I gave out gradual parts of a line from a christmas song, one word per art post per day. The order of those could be indentified by the Twelve Days of Christmas,
For example of this, the clue...
You find yourself stuck in a tree, not sure how you got there, there's a rough scent of pears about, a Partridge appears before you, it tells you the following word...
Everyone
Refers to the Partridge in a Pear Tree, the first day of christmas, so Everyone comes first. While...
A Couple of Doves approach you, but they approach you slowly, it was like if a Turtle was trying to catch, when they pass you they say the following word...
Hail
Refers to the Two Turtle Doves, the second day of christmas, so Hail comes second, and so on.
Of course, if you know The Nightmare Before Christmas, you could have guessed the lyric password was "Everyone Hail to the Pumpkin King now!" from the song "This is Halloween". Congratulations if you solved it.
Now, on to the results, here's a screencap of my notes an hour after midnight over here.

Now I have a bit of a conundrum here to solve with a few of you,
flutterguy10 posted first, but you posted before midnight, sorry, needed to be after I'm afraid. Keep your eye on that timer
thebackup was the first to post after midnight, but in a haste to post their note, only wrote "Everyone Hail To The Pumpkin King", forgetting the now. Sorry, needed to be the full line.
So our first place winner posting after midnight and the full phrase is
TwoTone at 00:08! Congratulations! Shortly after was
Swinging also at 00:08 according to FA (That could be anywhere between a second and 59 seconds apart, I'm not entirely sure),
OneWithLogic came third, also at 00:08 (pretty impressive there is seconds between them). Our first 00:09 came with
ZeroKelvin.
Vinal211 was also in at 00:09, but I'm afraid you got the order wrong with "Everyone now hail to the pumpkin king", now was the seven swans a swimming at the end of the phrase. So
Foxintheanthill takes 5th.
So in order we have the following...
First:
TwoTone
Second:
Swinging
Third:
OneWithLogic
Fourth:
ZeroKelvin
Fifth:
Foxintheanthill
Now, I would say that
flutterguy10,
thebackup and
Vinal211 all got the solution Close Enough, with just a minor mistake be that timing, missing word or incorrect order. So, I'm going to give all 3 of you joint 6th place. I'll get a few extra key copies for them since it is christmas after all.
Ok, so to all our winners I will now send you a note confirming your placement and I will ask you to write a list of which games you want in priority, This should hopefully get you want you want in a speedy fashion. To explain, I will ask OneWithLogic for their top 3 games from the bundle since they came in third, lets say TwoTone takes their number 1 pick, but Swinging takes a different game not on their top 3 list, I will give OneWithLogic their second pick as no one has taken that game. Hope that's simple enough to understand.
Oh, and last thing to the winners, don't keep the others waiting before I can hand out keys, if you don't respond with which game you want in 48 hours, I will move you to 7th place and you will get whatever remains from the prize bundle for holding up the game giving.
Well, that's it. It's 2018. Once Again, thanks for taking part in the christmas giveaway!
