December Freebies and Advent Calendar
- Posted by Nynex
- Posted on December 1, 2012, 12:00 am NST
The Month of Celebrating is finally here!! With all the Advent excitement, don't forget to collect this months freebie foods and 2000 NP.
Today is the first day of the Advent Calendar. Check back each day during the month of Celebrating for special animations and goodies. We will have full coverage of the prizes on our Advent guide, as well as the upcoming Stocking Stufftacular starting in a few days.
The Advent Calendar will be giving away a freebie Mall Snowball item. Keep on the lookout for this item!
With the Winter Celebration in full swing, the Snowager has gone into hibernation. He is now sleeping every hour of the day, and you can attempt to steal a piece of treasure once a day. (as opposed to the normal 3 times a day.) If you are lucky, you will snag a new item. Check our Snowager guide for prize details. Unfortunately, the avatar will not be obtainable this month. :/
The final item in the Daring Duos NC Mall Collection will be released this month. The month of December will be featuring Hannah and Kanrik!

Advent Calendar - Hidden Snowflakes
- Posted by Nynex

Looks like a new Advent activity has begun this year. Each day a hidden snowflake can be found in the animation. If you click the snowflake, you will earn a prize.
Today you can find the hidden snowflake on King Roo's cape. Check our Advent guide each day for more locations!
Perhaps collecting each snowflake will earn you a snowball prize?

Advent Holiday Snowball
- Posted by Nynex

While claiming today's hidden snowflake in the Advent animation, you will be awarded a special Holiday Snowball. This Snowball is an NC item, similar to the Mini Neggs or Locked Treasure of Mystery Chest where you have to use NC to open them. The Snowball can be melted using the Really Warm Holiday Mittens located in the NC Mall.
The melted Snowball will randomly award 1 of 10 wearable items, and a chance to receive another Holiday Mitten (although, it will say you received Cheery Holiday Mittens, this is incorrect). You can view the full prize listing here.
Update: The bonus Cheery Snowflake Mittens has finally been fixed.

We're finishing up the last set of the Daring Duos NC Mall Collectibles with Kanrik! Please remember that this item will only be available for the month of December.
If you've purchased all of the items in this collection, you will receive a bonus item starring Hannah!
It would be wonderful if you could help out and model these items and earn a new trophy for your cabinet as well! We're also still looking for a few models for those items from the Holiday Snowball as well.

Advent Calendar Prize Update - Remember that whole Real Negg Faerie Wings NC prize on Day 6, where they looked like another item that was already given out during the Negg Festival? Yeah, sorry about that. We'll be replacing the newer, duplicate wings today so they'll no longer be the same. Hooray! The name will change this afternoon, and the art will update later tonight/early tomorrow morning. Sorry again for the duplicate. The Real Negg Faerie pulled one over on us because he's sneaky like that.
Also, we got an amazing number of entries for the Winter Holiday FB costume contest and are still sorting through all the entries! We're hoping to get the finalists up for voting later tomorrow.
