Er, the slushie was normal. I meant the animation was gross. I don't know if people can taste their own tartar since it's in their mouth all the time.

Today's bonus: Snowstorms in Terror Mountain. Thankfully today's animation was not gross. Keep an eye on the clock behind the Myncis.

The Nova will be in the first change of scene after the poster is scanned, at the top, near the middle.

Today's bonus: chokato brucicle.

I loved today's animation. After so many years, some of them have seemed kind of stale this year, but this one used the music and color scheme of the Obelisk War while still adding a bit of holiday festiveness. (Maybe I just don't like the non-talking talking noises...)

Today's nova was tricky. I just clicked on all the stars; I think it was the bigger one on the left.

Yes, it was. It's the big one on the left. After I found it, I took a closer look. It is the one that is "2D" where the others have some thickness.

Another non-special special snowflake.

Today's nova is not the first star you see (on the building); it'll be towards the bottom and you'll have plenty of time to click.

I find it annoying when Neopian things defy simple laws of physics. Had the lanterns had "blinders" to cut off the light in certain directions, that might have made it a little believable, though the light was so diffuse, it still would have been far-fetched. It's still not as bad as the animated Mystery Island Summer Background, in which the sun sets and then reverses direction and rises from the same spot.

12/17 Bonus: minty snowflake.

Today's animation was odd. I understand they probably didn't want to show an amputated limb, but the hook is obviously made to fit over a residual limb, not a hand. (I know, the joke wouldn't work with a residual limb because it wouldn't be able to grab anything, but... it's just weird! Windmills do not work that way.)

ETA 12/18: "Bonus": dung snowflake

Hmm, now I have to figure out how to play Shenanigifts. I suspect this prize might be more time-limited than previous NC game prizes. Hopefully I'll win something fun to wear (assuming I can get my closet to work...) or beachy.

Why did you post while I was editing, Blue? Harumph! (More accurately, why don't the boards warn you if someone has posted while you were editing?)

Your "bonus" prize was as gross as mine today.

Because there is also no warning that says, "Hey! Siniri is editing her post!!"

There is usually a message stating that there is a new post since you started writing your post.
