Advent Calendar 2012

Sat Dec 01, 2012 8:01 am

You carefully walk in and pick up a scratchcard from the pile of treasure, and then run for your life!!!!!

Wow, it's already December...

Got a Broken Heart Keychain from Snowy.

Thank you Daze!

Thanks for this reminder, too Daze.

Look at you all prepared with all 31 days already in your post

Hey, me too!

I can't view the Advent Calendar animation; it simply won't load (I have the latest version of Flash and Firefox, and I can see the grayed-out background picture, but the animation never pops up, even when the page is fully loaded). When I first tried to pick up my prizes, I went to my inventory by clicking on my NP total, and the prizes weren't there, but when I went back to the Advent Calendar and clicked on the inventory link from within the "here are your prizes" text, they showed up. Phew.

TNT really needs to address all the site weirdness that's been going on lately. When the Advent Calendar isn't working properly, you got trouble right here in River City.

Not trouble in River City! Noooooo

This year TNT have added a secret bonus link. Find a link in the animation to be rewarded.
Day 1: The snowflake on King Roo's cloak.

Well spotted!

You've found today's hidden snowflake. As your reward, you've earned the following prize:
Raindorf

I just found out about the snowflake and came to tell people. Foiled by Daze again!

Just kidding, thanks for letting everyone know. I had to log into my main on Chrome to get the animation to work (usually I reserve Chrome for my side, so I don't get the two accounts mixed up). So weird; I've never had an issue with the animations before.

Oh, and I got a Small Yogurt Pea Smoothie. Yum.

Is this everyday? And can you go back to view the animation from past days to get to the hidden link?

DHK, the wording of the message to me implies that it will be a daily. I suspect it will only be available the day of, but no one will know for sure until people who missed it today try to get it tomorrow.

LOL! Sorry Siniri.

I am lucky that Midnight NST is only 6pm here. It gives me plenty of time to find things and post. I only found out about the hidden item on the Neopets Facebook post. Two things I check first thing in the morning and last thing at night - Neopets and Facebook! :roll:

Well spotted!

Large Wild Chocomato Smoothie

Some are posting that they are also getting this message:
But Wait, There's More!

It seems you've also won a snowball. Taking a closer look, you notice that something appears to be inside of it. Hmm... perhaps a trip to the NC Mall for some Melting Mittens is in order?

I can try to get yesterday's hidden link today, as I'm not supposed to even be using the computer for Neo, so I could never view the animation. Time to take a bit of risk... hehe.

Wow, the animation actually started for me today, but it froze a little into it -- right after I clicked the snowflake

.

Today's snowflake prize was a healing potion XIV.

Mon Dec 03, 2012 2:00 am

Viewing a missed animation doesn't have the missing link, so no bonus prize.
At least I got a Grape Snowflake from today.

Looks like the hidden linked prize is unique for each person. Today (Day 2), I got an Ice Shield. Delightfully ironic, considering it was a Moltara themed day.

Thanks Daze for finding this for us. Midnight NST is midnight for me, too
