Every month, she/he/it has their front yard decorated for something so much so that you don't even see grass or the color of the bricks. Its atrocious! I still prefer that, seperate holidays, to this massive blending people do. To each his own but I prefer my holidays one at a time (less food to cook that way lol). But bring on the pressies! Edit: by every month I mean EVERY month...July is red white and blue all month, May, September, no holiday? No problem, that house decorates for....something lol Edited November 24, 2019 by EmmySky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was living in California, I worked for an Inventory company. I've heard Christmas music before Halloween... I'm down with Christmas music. I just prefer it to start in the month of December. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the wiki, the Winter Event dates were as follows: 2004 01/12/05-02/08/05 2005 12/05/05-01/02/06 2006 12/14/06-01/02/07 & 01/08/07-01/15/07 2007 12/17/07-01/06/08 2008 12/15/08-01/04/09 2009 12/15/09-01/12/10 2010 12/17/10-01/02/11 2011 12/13/11-01/03/12 That said, I wouldn't be surprised if the event runs for a full month this year. There were always complaints that some people couldn't participate because of their holiday schedules, so a longer run time would allow more players to join in the fun. After Thanksgiving then! The 29th 😉 I agree with you and Tahliah though, to at least start early on the month of December with the longer event run. 1 1 @Kismet @KlSMET - (kLsmet) @Kismette @Kismet Angel/@Angel of Fate/@One Kismet - on live Heroes on Guardian/Villains on Victory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EiricEPadraig Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I really wish the event was already active. We have 14 inches of snow on the ground outside and most of the city was closed yesterday. Would have been a great way to fix the winter blues.

Sovera Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 I asked on chat but other than a laconic 'badges' none seemed interested in answering. There are winter lords chasings, baby farms, etc, but what *are* the rewards for doing wintery stuff? - Simple guide for newcomers. - Money making included among other things. - Tanker Fire Armor: the Turtle, the Allrounder, the Dragon, and compilation of Fire Armor builds. - Tanker Stone Armor: beginner friendly (near) immortal Tanker for leveling/end-game and Stone Armor framework. - Brute Rad/Stone and compilation of Brute Stone Armor builds.

Possibly a few other things, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly a few other things, too. The Winter's Gift recipes -- travel, travel/end, and 20% cold resistance Opening the presents scattered around the zones can give you temp powers, too -- Build Snow Beast (a pet summons), Instant Snowstorm (creates a visual snowstorm around allies -- no combat effect, though), Duplicating Gift (to chain passing around among allies), Snowball (make and throw snowballs -- snowballs don't cause aggro, so they're fun to throw at enemies), and Mystery Gift (open for a random reward). Note that the consumable temp powers you get from the presents (Mystery Gift, Duplicating Gift, Build Snow Beast, and Instant Snowstorm) stack (before burning one each on a Posi 1 and 2, I had five Snow Beast uses), but the ones you buy with canes from the vendor don't, and if you have any of the present-awarded versions, you can't buy more from the vendor. The Mystery Gift, when opened, randomly awards one of: Candy Cane, 250 Inf, Build Snow Beast, Snowball, or Jingle Jet. You can also get a Mystery Gift when someone gives you Holiday Cheer (purchased from the candy cane vendor). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a winner! 😄 When I logged in Friday & saw the snow in Atlas Park, I wondered why it had never occurred to me that the perfect day to start the Winter Event would be Black Friday.

Nericus Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Now for the other question, when is the launch date of the spring event? I wouldn't be surprised if it's on Valentine's day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
