Quick and Nasty Guide to the Tree (Update 12/30 )

It means the servers can't tell time. You should just right down the last time you opened a present on a sticky note, and then try again a couple of hours later.

Christmas is forever, not for just one day,
for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away

Mm...ok I'll try that.
Oh and when I only get the "don't shred your gifts" message [after 10 hours from the last opening] what should I do?

like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf.
The good you do for others is good you do yourself...

[SquidMcKid]

You can click on the presents 2 times now!

The ones you can click are the huge square one tied in a neon green bow. The other one you can click on was the original tiny red box that was all alone before.

Yay! I got the zOMG Ribbon and 2 more peppermint squids thanks to the 2nd giftbox!

These children are fooled into believing they've found the motherload of candies then
are gobbled up by this vicious carnivorous fish!
HAHAHHAHA! Stupid children...

I think I just got pwned by the second box. emo

[OniChild]

Thank you for this guide. Its very helpful. ^^

Though what is not helpful are those people camping out near the tree. I want to kill my own giftbox monster darn it. I think after 10 minutes of sitting near the tree the tree should warp you somewhere else. lol

Oh goodie. There's a second box now, but I still can't open either of them because of my perpetual 10-second DON'T SHRED THE BOX. =_______=

I keep getting the "Don't shred all your presents at once. Wait 10 seconds or so between each one." message crying

like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf.

Oh, I got a Bump ring as one of my Nice prizes. :3

Oh yeah. I think the wait is more like 2 hours and 20 minutes. I wrote my times down.

It seemed like it was 2 hours and 15 minutes last night... methinks Gaia's servers can't tell time.

hehe, the Elves thing for a little while was no wait, I blew through three elves in five minutes. And then they fixed it so it was a 5 minute wait between each part. xD

I'm just super excited the entire site didn't crash. 8D

So that's how I finished the event without even trying. Oh well. More time for zOMG. Although the 2 hours and random number of minutes thing is bugging me. I can't wait for more presents to be added. And yet... dear God. Imagine the lag. All those people and giftbox monster on the same square. Methinks they could have planned this a bit better. D=

Yeah, a tree by each NPC like the pumpkins would have been better.

Still, it's sillyfun. xD

Mei: Oh agreed! I want them aaaaaalll. I'm just hoping it'll get to be a LOT easier to get them by the weekend/Monday.

Bria: Wait what? No more loot for every toy part?

Woo new presents!

[Bria_Teragram]

Oh, I mean I got recipes. It'll cost me all of like 30g to make most of them I think. xD

Seriously! Are you sure that sometimes there just aren't things in the naughty boxes? Because the only time I didn't get to kill my own, I didn't get anything.
I was pissed. Dx
zOMG! is getting on my nerves in general.

[Fyre_Vixin]

So the only way we can get some of the loot to make the new recipes is to get them from the gifts around the tree?

[Lapinporokoira]

I hate that tree and the masses that cover up the prezzies and stick around,

I have a question when you get an item does it drop like when you get one from the animated?

[Fyre_Vixin]

Mine either tells me what I got, tells me it's a recipe, or tells me I got a <insert rarity here> loot item.
