And by prepared, we mean get your snow gear out and throw some snowballs. Each snowball you throw counts as 5 snowballs for the "Throw a Snowball" achievement! You can purchase snowballs here.
Please read the entire post before asking questions in the comments.

Bumbles Cryptid Encounter has been read to Alba Aurora!

Girl, be more grateful.

And by the way in case not everyone knows, if you don't want to bother other people you can just throw snowballs at yourself. It still counts. :D
PSA: If you ever intend to complete the snowball achievement, take advantage of 5 for 1 now. Before this news release, I had 450 snowballs thrown. I just completed 30,000 thrown! StarShadow gave good advice in the previous news comments. Have a 1/2 size window open for buying and a 1/2 size window open for throwing. Keep them both open next to each other. I bought the same type of snowball, then I typed my username to 'throw at'. I refreshed the thrown page after buying a snowball and didn't even have to select the snowball or the person to toss it at. The same snowball was tossed at me every time. There is a five second restriction between throwing, but it went pretty fast. Good luck!

Disappointed the Unstable Fairy Scroll isn't a drop. Rare scrolls should get re-releases too!

I think I need 6,000 snowballs to complete the "Throw a Snowball" achievement. My math might be off.

My birthday is 7/25 so its always funny to see Christmas in July or like...snowmen in july sort of things

Idk about the rest of ya'll, but I am RACKING UP the Quest Points during this event. Lovin' it! :)

Doing an effort to NOT spend token shops in hopes some book Alba Aurora still needs releases

As much as I enjoy the fun snowball overlays (Spiky Snowball is one of my top favorites with the screaming anime-style facial expression), the Snowtapult's long track record of broken overlays really takes away its purpose. I'm trying to get the snowball achievement, but it feels like I'm just throwing avatar-breakers at people and it's sad.
I also remember the good ole days when you could layer 2 or 3 snowball overlays at once, I loved getting my favorites reflected back onto myself and making a goofy setup (imagine if you will, a top hat and mustache at once).

My avatar is also broken and Kumos isn't letting me log-in properly so I can't get into the wardrobe! ;<





@Amber
Is there any way someone can look at the mouse snowball? It seems to break the HA's when you throw it at someone.

i need roughly 5,775 snowballs to reach the highest tier of the achievement. (this is taking the '1 counts as 5' thing into consideration.) i don't suppose there will ever be an option to buy multiple at once? even a 10 pack would be helpful. haha
also, it's a little odd that maleria is the one passing out retired food and not pete.
but those are just nitpicks. thanks for the event!

I wanted to 2nd what @Lorelai posted and also ping @Amber.
Any way we could get the following Choice items into the CS stock?

They were from the Tres Chic competition in 2013, and haven't been brought back to the Cash Shop in years.
I posted about them last BF sale here.

Thank you for fixing the HAs. Though I'm okay with people throwing snowballs at me, I concur there should be a way to opt out.

I love this event, thank you! I went a little crazy in the cash shop. ๐
If anyone needs to throw snowballs, feel free to send some my way!

Looks like the HAs are back. And I love the Icy Snowballs, they make a pretty ice crown. In case someone missed it, here's a tip for snowballs - make two 1/2 size windows side by side, buy in 1 & toss in the other. Goes faster that way. Good luck to all. :D

dare to ask Any chance that the 5 second wait time on buying and throwing snowballs would be removed? That's the thing that really puts a damper on it for me.

oh not all the collections r being brought back? i wanted to buy some recent December collections.



I love this mini event. Thank you for this Amber!
Stocking up on snowballswhile patiently waiting for the avatars to turn back on
Also, if you're hesitant about attacking random people, feel free to launch some snowballs my way :snowman:
