I'm glad I didn't waste my time staying up until 3 AM, it didn't make sense to release it at that time. Halloween makes more sense because Halloween is a holiday based on "dark" and "scary"

Winter has nothing to do with that, if anything it's the exact opposite about "light"

well actually if you live in northenr Canada, Alaska, or the Netherlands then winter is a time of darkness as they only have the sune for a few hours a day, if that... so winter is known as a dark time up north hehe...

of course that doesn't explain why they would make you get it at midnight, I think this is by far the stupidist thing I have seen in a while... release a sidebar and have zero people out of a few million get it. There was no one any where that got this. I am sure we will be hearing sumthin about this soon as they get a ton of neo-hate-mails (yes after all these years they now have their own type hehe) from everyone asking how to get it... heh

My guess is the editorial this week will explain it.

*raises hand* Yup, here in North Sweden where I live we are so close to the arctic that we have WEEKS where we don't see Mr. Sun.

At all.

these sidebars really are not fair

they should at least be POSSIBLE to get for all places. If they say they are a kids site and want to up that idea then having the halloween bar avaiable at 3am only (for us est-ers) and impossible for winter its really not fair

I never even knew about the winter sidebar! When did it come out? What does it do? Why did it get released at midnight again???

Well that's most of the problem. It was up for yesterday and they told us we could unlock it, but we couldn't figure it out. One or two people got it, but they have no idea when or how they did. It wasn't released at midnight like the last one though.

Yesterday. We don't know. It didn't, we don't konw how to get it.

Oh. Well maybe March 1st will let us get it again or something. we have a month to figure it out. I just hope it's not at midnight. What does the sidebar do exactly?

It doesn't really do anything. It's just a fancier. Like the birthday sidebar!

Actually, the birthday sidebar gives you more random events. I'd like to say twice as many, but I'm not sure if that's true or not. (I can't remember what was said.)

The Halloween sidebar did something too, I thought, but I don't remember what.

I believe TNT said it was a 10% or 20% increase in the chances of getting a 'good' random event....I think during the birthday bar I recieved a Kacheek Transmorphing potion from Sloth....which was then almost imidietly stolen by the pants devil....*sighs*

They really should either lighten up, or not give them out at all. At this point it's pretty unfair for a lot of players.

Same timezone I am? Live someplace Midwest US? I have no cool sidebar either. Just the boring plain yellow one
