It's Advent Calendar time again! This year's Winter Starlight Celebration has officially started!

Visit the Advent Calendar daily to collect prizes, and don't forget to click on Reina (the Christmas Aisha) for a bonus prize.

The Snowager is also hibernating (and might be for the first couple of days in January as well, so don't forget to check back!), so you can get a daily prize from him, as well.

The Stocking Stufftacular will start December 8th, so the first stocking must be hung by the 11:59:59pm on the 7th.

The SAP is back in the prize pool for Reina again this year. The prize pool seems to consist mostly of previous years' advent calendar items.
Yes, there is a premium extra item each day. Considering that they've devalued premium a LOT this last year (giving out Nerkmids & paintbrushes and then other strength boost items seriously devalued the extra battledome challengers...and then putting a Premium Monthly Items capsule in the NCMall more recently that everyone could buy...yeah), this is a welcome addition. They specifically state in the FAQ that there will be no battledome items for Premium members, that it's "extra customisation, plushes, toys, and more!"
---------------
Day 1:
Reina: Darkest Faerie Snowglobe
Snowie: Candy Filled Negg
Neggs that are not neggs/"pick up a negg": 1/1 - off to a great start here... :wall: :roflol:
You find 2254 Neopoints!!!
You also find
Twig
Money Tree Fables

And for today's Premium Perk Prize, you also find
Winter Sunrise Trail Background
New P3!!!!! Wheee!! So cute! <3

Snowager: can't remember (did during his usual time)
Reina: Beelzebug

I was a little surprised to see this until I read until the end. That's actually a good marketing tactic. Not going to work on me, but it could on others.

Day 2:
Snowager: terror trove scratchcard (a dud)
Reina: Purple Shoyru Cracker (woah, it's worth 90k, and yesterday's is 70k and dropping) -- and there's a pretty high chance of getting items worth even more, so I'm opening it: Grape Gummy Gem (1700 NP), Moon and Stars Paper Crown (60k), and Baby Cybunny Sticker (unbuyable, seeing asks of 2M-4M on the TP, but there are several)

Okay, I'm glad I opened that, even if it's HTS!

Yesterday's comic about the money tree's motives was cute, and today's wallpaper was really cute as well. I suspected the prize would be the image, and it didn't disappoint. Something about the faellie finishing the snow ear really solidified the cuteness.

There are a lot of people kvetching about the premium "ad". I'm like...they're finally breaking even for the first time in years. Give them a break. They've been transparent about that in the AMA's. If you don't want premium, fine, but if you want the site to continue to run, they do need to make money or their investors will drop them and then that's it.

Day 2:
Reina: Holiday Bell Chocolate Advent Calendar (wohoo! I needed this for gourmet club!)
Snowie: Minty Snowager Pie
Neggs that are not neggs/"pick up a negg": 1/1
You find 897 Neopoints!!!
You also find
Christmas Faellie Cake
Faellie Snowglobe
And for today's Premium Perk Prize, you also find
Faellie Christmas Cookie Decorating Foreground
Allll the Faellies. I can't imagine TNT Fae had anything to do with that.... :lol:

Day 2 Bonus: Festive Special PJs
Snowie: Faeries Fortune Scratchcard

Is it me, or does the scratchcard look different?

I *would* put them on my pet, but apparently my closet is full. Need to cull my closet. Ironically, I need to do the same in RL, too.

Yes, they changed the scratchcard picture a few weeks/months ago.

Day 3:
Snowie: Supersize Mega Ultra Plus
Reina: Winter Shoyru Plushie

Has anyone ever actually used any of the coloring pages? Maybe if you actually had kids... I like that they left it to you to design the stamp.

So far none of the premium items have made me want to buy. Just ignore the ad if you don't like it. People like to complain about literally everything. (We were complaining we didn't win some of the most generous prizes from a very generous wheel, even though we all won other generous items, so I'm definitely not immune to this myself.)

Okay, was definitely expecting a stamp, but I guess not. The garland is really nice! I might actually use it for someone. <shoves it in the closet to try on while I'm working on customizing pets for Christmas>

They have updated the Faeries Fortune scratchcard but not the others when they changed the item pools. I dislike the new look. But...however many years on the site since they first came out and them looking the same...yeah, don't like the change. I will adapt, though.

If your closet is full, you probably have the settings set to limit the number of items in your closet. I definitely don't. My "standards" is more than that limit as it is, and when I add in seasonal items.... :lol:
