lophostrix , December 1, 2012 1:13 PM NST Nice! I got a Small Roasted Chestnut Smoothie

renaki , December 1, 2012 1:17 PM NST Hehe nice-I got a Golden Snowflake

jawsch - JN Staff , December 1, 2012 1:19 PM NST Looks more like the Snowball is something related to the NC Mall...since it's animated.

hannahcreep , December 1, 2012 1:22 PM NST I just hope... beg... pray... that the snowball gives out a wearable and DOES NOT give out neohome 2.0 stuff. The only reason I think it would is because it looks like an ornament.

gustavohdh , December 1, 2012 1:23 PM NST lol I got a Blunella Brucicle...

0o0slytherinpride0o0 , December 1, 2012 1:27 PM NST Stockings, Gift of Neocash, possible Holiday Grams and now an NC component tied to the Advent Calendar? Do we really need anything else this month?

13germandames , December 1, 2012 1:36 PM NST Nice, TNT! =D



Glowing Snowflake c:

lucky300 , December 1, 2012 1:39 PM NST I got a Ice Shield.

katieisme67 , December 1, 2012 1:42 PM NST FYI, after you get the prize, you can not go back to click on the snowflake. I got my first advent calendar prize just after midnight nst and went back just now to see if I could click the snowflake and I can not even re-watch the animation :-(

queen_megs , December 1, 2012 1:43 PM NST Oooh interesting.



I got Large Honey Smoothie.



Maybe the snowball is this year's NC cracker?

nynex - JN Staff , December 1, 2012 1:43 PM NST



you do not have to go to the prize page, just the advent page with the animation on it. I got my advent items at midnight, and went back to get the snowflake. the screenie is from me getting the snowflake.you do not have to go to the prize page, just the advent page with the animation on it.

gustavohdh , December 1, 2012 1:43 PM NST will have a guide about it?

liabeth , December 1, 2012 1:47 PM NST I was NOT able to get the bonus prize in JN's Dailies Doer. I had to go to the actual advent page on Neo in its own tab to get it. Odd.

nynex - JN Staff , December 1, 2012 1:48 PM NST @gustavahdh yup, its in the works now!



@liabeth because that frame does not allow popups.

liabeth , December 1, 2012 1:53 PM NST Figured it was something similar. But now I know for future days

goldennightfox , December 1, 2012 1:58 PM NST I'm not liking that there may be (yet another) NC component... but the extra prize is interesting.

Though how they thought anyone'd think to click the snowflake because it's "out of place" (isn't the cape the item we get today?) is beyond me. x)

milkyweaselcakes , December 1, 2012 2:23 PM NST Awesome idea! I got Coffee Slushie (:

cat , December 1, 2012 2:24 PM NST Ooh thanks for the info! I'd have never tried clicking on the snowflake if I hadn't seen this.



Maybe the snowball's a NC freebie. Anyway I wouldn't worry too much about it being animated, plenty of NP items have animated item images including bobbleheads.

piratekay , December 1, 2012 2:31 PM NST ... I have been clicking the snowflake for like 20 mins now.. and I can't get it to work. Anyone else having this problem? O-o

hannahcreep , December 1, 2012 2:55 PM NST @milkyweaselcakes you mean a frappe?

0o0slytherinpride0o0 , December 1, 2012 3:02 PM NST



"But Wait, There's More!

It seems you've also won a snowball. Taking a closer look, you notice that something appears to be inside of it. Hmm... perhaps a trip to the NC Mall for some Melting Mittens is in order?"



(Jawsch posted on Charter that there was something in the source code, so credit goes to him. ) @cat It's not because it's animated, this is in the source code:"But Wait, There's More!It seems you've also won a snowball.

hypo , December 1, 2012 4:15 PM NST Well spotted!



You've found today's hidden snowflake. As your reward, you've earned the following prize:





Blue Pop Slushie

cat , December 1, 2012 4:23 PM NST Ah, I see, so it's a free box that has to be opened with a mall item. Tricky tricky TNT.

kingloui17 , December 1, 2012 5:22 PM NST look at the source code... the snowball is an NC component -_-







But Wait, There's More!

This item has also been added to your inventory

hannahcreep , December 1, 2012 6:20 PM NST We have to buy something to get something. Great, no free NC item.We have to buy something to get something.

nick - JN Staff , December 1, 2012 9:38 PM NST It's no different than the chests in last year's Krawk Island event... Or the mini-neggs, for that matter.

kitty_200167 , December 1, 2012 9:56 PM NST Where do you find the snowball?

dinox19ace , December 1, 2012 10:11 PM NST you are right hannahcreep.please come to my shop on neopets.my username is dinox19ace you are right hannahcreep.please come to my shop on neopets.my username is dinox19ace

dinox19ace , December 1, 2012 10:20 PM NST thanks for coming to my shop if any of you came to it thanks for coming to my shop if any of you came to it

agent_711 , December 1, 2012 10:23 PM NST



Anyway, I got a Large Honey Smoothie from this. It's already listed, but I just wanted to say something just because. x)

I do think this is pretty clever of TNT though, I would've never thought to click on the snowflakes for prizes. :o Snowball = Treasure chests at last year's KI event and mini neggs at the Negg Festival this year.Anyway, I got a Large Honey Smoothie from this.

whoandwhy , December 1, 2012 11:10 PM NST I think that the animation would include at least one of the day's advent calendar prizes, and that it would give a hint as to where the snowflake is.

musicgirl59 , December 2, 2012 1:10 AM NST If you don't know already, today's snowflake is on top of the tree. I saw it right away, but had to click it a few times before i got my prize.

matryoshka , December 2, 2012 2:09 AM NST Aww man I wish I knew earlier. D:

kayotico , December 2, 2012 5:29 AM NST Today the snowball is at the top of moltaran tree.

tomato99 , December 2, 2012 7:08 AM NST

I keep clicking but I'm not getting anything.

whoandwhy , December 2, 2012 12:15 PM NST Try clicking at the begining of the animation when it first appears. If that doesn't work, then try to refresh the page.

elvenfaery , December 2, 2012 2:27 PM NST I just saw this post after midnight today when I was signing on to collect my prizes. I was only able to get on long enough to do the normal Advent Calendar visiting on the first day, and that was also right after midnight. In other words, I certainly hope there's no super duper, spectacularly unique prize for finding the snowflake each day when there was no indication anything might possibly be different this year...

Even if there is, I still love this idea, and it's not like I haven't missed the boat on nearly everything else of any neo-importance in the last 12.5 years.

katieisme67 , December 2, 2012 7:07 PM NST I do use the Daily Do-er, that must be why I couldn't get the animation again. Thanks!

dragonflyboi , December 3, 2012 12:27 AM NST ok so i got the holiday snowball, but it says i have to buy really warm holiday mittens from the NC mall to reveal the prize in the snowball.

esem17 , December 3, 2012 12:37 AM NST I got two prizes from the holiday snowball: Knitted Grey Caplet, and another pair of Really warm mittens

whoandwhy , December 3, 2012 6:31 PM NST How do you get a pair of really warm mittens from a snowball? I thought you could only get a pair from buying them from the nc mall. Or do you mean the cheery holiday mittens?
