Thank you for joining us for the Festival of Winter Nights! The year sure flew by - can you believe it's that time already? We've all been pulling our hair out trying to get everything ready in time. Well, not me, exactly.. *laughs*

Anyway, you should find most questions about how the event works answered in the following posts, but if there is anything we can help you with, please let us know!

Frequently Asked Questions



  • When will the event end?

    The event will last about 10 days. We're aiming to end the event on January 1st, hour TBA


  • How do I participate in the event?

    The staff have prepared many wonderful contests and games for you, which can be found stickied at the top of the Event Forum. Links to each contest are also provided in the next post.



  • How do I earn event currency?

    You will gain some event currency ("Sweets") for each post that you make in the forums during the event.

    Additionally, you might gain some more by playing the game of chance every 15 minutes. But it's a true game of chance: you may win big, or you may walk away empty-handed!

    Chance Game Info:
    • Aces are LOW - don't be caught off guard!
    • Up to 5 pairs of cards to play every 15 minutes, if you guess correctly.
    • Cash out and collect your winnings, or risk losing the pot by guessing incorrectly the next round...your choice!



  • What is event currency for?

    It's there primarily for you to be able to gain Event Items (EIs), which are our event rares. If you participate enough and earn a lot of event currency, you could get some commons too!

    Any unused event currency will roll over to the next event.



  • Are there event commons?

    Yes! Just head down to the Special Event Store.

    Note: Commons are still being tagged, so some previews might not be working yet. We'll post again when we're through.

    Event commons will be available after the event ends. However, they will be moved out into the main stores and will retail for double their event price.



  • Are there event rares? How do I earn them?

    Yes! You'll be able to find them in the Special Event Store as they are released. They'll be on the back page.

    You can either buy them with gold or with event currency, the choice will be yours.

    Please note: After the event, the rares will be removed from the shops and discontinued.



  • Why is the Sellback Store closed?

    The Sellback Store is closed during events to prevent people from selling back event items for a large gold gain.
