So, doesn't seem to be any signs of the snow snakes so far this year… possibly we need to meet some minimum amount of scariness before that first message will start showing up?

I also haven't seen any signs of the fight option that lets you get to the fuzed snowmen… That part seems a bit odd, since I remember that coming up pretty quickly the last couple years. I'd guess it has something to do with helping the hipsters, and there are two different results from doing that. Maybe we just haven't been giving them enough help?

Edit: The patterns started showing up somewhere around:
According to the screen, there were a total of 228 snowmen built and 300 torn back down. The total Abomonometer reading is 557.

An Abomonometer reading of 500 had not been enough to trigger it. And it was probably at around 290-something torn down when I saw them.

Good news, snakes have appeared in the shadows. No idea on what to test, though.

Edit: Tried using some normal quad item (corduroys) and tried with -evasion (everything is so tiny). -4 evasion power and pants did not seem to matter.

Results for this year:

It's finally time to open all these presents!

You received: spicy present

A pile of gifts came in overnight in Metroplex U wrapping paper. You haul them into your apartment.

You received: 9 traditional sled ornaments

You received: 10 bloody sled ornaments

You received: 5 black sled ornaments

You received: 8 friendly candle ornaments

You received: snowy cookie tin

Hey, there's something from the OmniMall here too.

You found: snow globe

So, based on my numbers I think it must be bloody sled ornaments for building, traditional sled ornaments for destroying (possibly a mix-up there?), black sled ornaments for scariness, and friendly candle ornaments are presumably for helping hipsters.

I'd say bloody sleds for building, since I almost only did that (kind of weird that they're bloody). Friendly candles are for helping the hipsters since I helped every time I got the option. Black sleds are for scariness, since I only added one more scariness.

Looks like there was a bit of a mix-up in the rewards going out. The leaderboard reward is a sparkling sled ornament.
