Yeah, that can be frustrating if you are going for first.

Well, Krinadon is only human. If he honestly forgot, he forgot. There is a third leaderboard competition on the schedule for this festival, though the date hasn't been announced yet.

No, no. I was posting solely to refute your claims that my hatchery doesn't matter, not harping on Krin. I fully accept and understand that one person can only juggle so many things; goodness knows I've failed enough in my life.

This particular instance is only one more minor irritant; the point of my initial post was more about the whole system that allowed this to happen. This is not the first time I've found out about an ongoing contest by accident, and I'd just suggest some system be put in place to give a heads-up, perhaps automated, to those who may be interested in competing to avoid this sort of frustration in future.

I typically try and get the whole schedule posted at once before the first Round even begins. However, many things were not done on time with this Festival and that just causes everything to snowball. Throw in some personal stuff I had going on outside of Sylestia and everything was even more compounded lol.

As I've said before somewhere else, I think, this definitely is not the norm and I don't plan on things running like this in the future. I accept full responsibility for all the mishaps and issues and irritants with this year's Winter Festival and I sincerely apologize.

Atm, I'm trying to rectify some semblance of a sleep schedule because atm I'm going to bed in the morning and waking up at night and it's really making things difficult lol. I do plan on having everything 100% squared away though by the end of this weekend and then start fresh and move forward come Monday.

I have added in Catalyst Salvaging so you can now Salvage Frost Essences that you don't want and then once you have 3 (or 2 for Fabled/Majestic) you can turn them into a new random non-Aged Frost Essence of that same type.

Additionally, here are the final Leaderboard Contest Times for Round 2 (currently ongoing) and Round 3:

Enemies Defeated Contest #2: January 4th at 12 PM - January 8th at 11:59 PM
Enemies Defeated Contest #3: January 12th at 6 AM - January 16th at 11:59 PM

Pets Nurtured Contest #2: January 4th at 12 PM - January 8th at 11:59 PM
Pets Nurtured Contest #3: January 12th at 6 AM - January 16th at 11:59 PM


For Snow Wars, I am going to get a second round of Leaderboard rankings put in. This means that the current Leaderboard will end on Sunday, January 6th, at 11:59 PM. The second round probably will begin Monday and last for the remainder of the Festival (Jan 20th).


I will also try and get the new pet Traits put in this weekend as well.

Thank you for the update Krin. I am looking forward to seeing the new traits :D

When the second round of snow wars starts... will we have to start the tiers over?

Thanks Krin, but will we get extended leaderboards for Snow Wars, as we have for battle/nurture (so 15 people get prizes, 1 best and 4x 2nd best)?

I don't think there's any way around having to reset the rankings.

I'll see if there's anything I can do to keep the AI Farm Tiers unlocked tho even after Ratings are reset.

I'll take a look at the Leaderboards once they finish and judge from there.

Great, thank you :)
