Anyone want to give me an idea what's going on for the Christmas event this year?

Once again, Winter is blowing in across the bay to Paragon City™, and settling on the Rogue Isles™ like an icy blanket. This year new challenges and new rewards make it an exciting time for Heroes and Villains!
By simply logging in and visiting Paragon City or the Rogue Isles between December 17th, 2007 and January 6th, 2008*, your character will receive the Gifted badge and of course the Fuzzy Earmuffs costume piece. You’ll also receive the Holiday Spirit Temporary Power, which grants 48 hours of 25% Debt Protection, as well as the Holiday Cheer Temporary Power – target another player and use Holiday Cheer on them. It will reward them with a random, Mystery Gift – possibly a Temporary Power, a sack full of Influence or Infamy, or maybe even a very recognizable hat.
Once again Father Time, the keeper of the New Year, has a crisis on his hands. Snaptooth has kidnapped Baby New Year in order to keep Father Time from passing on the chronological mantle. If he keeps Baby New Year locked away forever, guarded by the Red Caps and allies among the Tuatha, winter will never give way to spring, and the universe as we know it may come to an end. Heroes and Villains can again band together to tackle this task!
Father Time can be found through a doorway in Pocket D that leads to a ski chalet built on a piece of the Shadow Shard. If you help him out, he’ll give out a choice of one of several fabulous holiday presents.
Ski Slopes are Open
While you are helping Father Time, take a few runs down the snowy ski course outside of the chalet. Authorities have kept the slalom course in great condition and this year all runs will be timed! Start practicing because your skills could earn you Bronze, Silver, or even Gold Medalist Badges!
Candy Canes and Gamester’s Gifts
Not surprisingly Gamester is up to his usual pranks. He has loaded the streets and rooftops with gifts once more. His presents might hold an Inspiration or Temporary Power, or they might reveal less favorable items like a Lump of Coal (though some find this a good thing), a Snowbeast, or maybe even the Winter Lord!
Candy Canes, a new type of Salvage, will be abundant this year! With every present that Heroes and Villains open “successfully,” a Candy Cane will appear. These can be redeemed with the Candy Keeper in the Pocket D chalet for a huge host of holiday rewards.
With so many fun Winter activities, the only question is where to begin! |

Hmmm. mostly rehashed from last year. But that's ok for a few reasons. First, I already have most of the badges involved so maybe I can skip the stupid new year baby missions (got tired of doing those over and over) and second, I love the random presents. It makes me feel warm and fuzzy :)
I guess I should have just gone to the CoH site (sorry :D)

How so? The deion here is the same as last year with the Baby New Year mission, Snaptooth, skiing, and presents, but without the candy canes and a few of the other things. So it seems like last year's event, but with extras.

Hey! You can't apologize to ME!? I was apologizing to you for not checking the main site before bugging everyone :D
Man. You didn't bore me silly, you gave me what I asked for. Plus cred :)

Like I said this is only what I heard, not having activated my account yet...
Too few boxes, and especially with the recent farming increase I heard it was like a race at times
there's the ever popular "innappropriate level spawn for zone" from high level heroes not killing their spawns
the racing minigame on the slopes in pocket d for a badge has drawn negative response
and the father time mission is the same as ever...
that's just what I read on the forums

Oh...
Huh. Well, I play at times of the day when no one is really around so maybe it will still work out.

good point, although we haven't made much progress on the virus so far...I hope I'll be able to play before the winter event ends, considering that last year, I just got into the game during the event

Double exp is even better now that there's the Oroborus system. That way, if you miss something important, you can go back for it.
