Gee I'm getting confused. People getting the sidebar don't seem to have much in common. x.X

Sun Dec 31, 2006 8:18 am

I got it!

This is my consolation for missing the Cyodrake's sidebar, I suppose.

What I did:

Collected everyday.
Fed snow food to active pet.
Had Snow Kookith on active pet.
Had snowballs in inventory.
Had snow food in inventory (as well as other items).
Sent a snow item to a friend.

It looks like collecting everyday is the common theme!

Edit to add:

I did not change my avatar at all.
I collected advent items from Money Tree often, including on 31st.
I signed up for a Taelia quest, but didn't do it.
I played Snowmuncher, and Snow Wars II once during the month. (not a particularly high score)

Except we know that it is not the sole requirement, if any. I collected everyday last year too.

*scratches head*

I have no idea what the requirements are than!
I'm glad I got it.. but I want to know why I got it.. what exactly I did that helped!
Anyways, i'm going to bed right now.. but hopefully we think up something! *hugs*

eurgh I'm so nervous.. I won't collect until like, 11pm tonight, so I'm hoping someone compiles a list :P so far I'm seeing everyone who got it collected the AC everyday, which I didn't ( :( ), but that didn't seem to be the main factor last year, so I'm hoping it isn't this year either.

I really, really want to try, but I really want the sidebar at the same time. So I'm going to resist :D

hmm.. i havent collected mine today in hopes that i can guarantee a sidebar later... but i cant piece together many similarities..


did anybody get the sidebar who did not have any snow items in their inventory or snowballs?

did anybody get the sidebar who HASNT done a taelia quest?

did anybody get the sidebar whos pets werent alll happy?

.....just many things ive been pondering.

*she has a snow bunny as an active petpet.

I did not have any snow items in inventory, i have not completed a taelia quest, and one of my pets is unhappy due to illness.

Yes. I haven't done her quests nor did I have any snow items in my inventory.
