How long will the snowball fight last? I can't see any information on how long but I don't know if I am looking in the wrong places?
On the snowball fight page there's a bunch of numbers, "score", "snowballs thrown", "members", "your score". They're all straightforward except "score", what does this calculate? At the time of posting this the "score" under Tobias is more than Dolly's. Even though his team is smaller and has throw less snowballs than Dolly's team.
@ Astrid The score is calculated by dividing the number of snowballs thrown by the number of users (in their respective team). In other words, the score is the average number of snowballs thrown per team member. Tobias' score is higher than Dolly because at this moment, 100,110 / 721 = ~138 while Dolly's is 162,626 / 1209 = ~134. I hope that helps :)
Thanks. :D So is that the score that determines the winner? Or is the winner just the overall snowballs thrown total?
Presumably, the score would determine the winner, otherwise it would just be a popularity contest, which is kinda lame and defeats the purpose of throwing snowballs xD
The snowball fight will be lasting throughout Luminaire, so just because Tobias is in the lead right now doesn't mean it'll stay that way. There are a good two weeks left for Dolly to pull ahead (though please don't let that happen because toys forever).
TEAM TOYS! Thanks for letting me know. I was hoping to sleep tonight. :)
AUHHHH! So that is why Dolly's nearly 1 mil snowballs is still not matching Tobias' in point value. A few of us are throwing a lot, but not enough to make up for those who aren't throwing any.
Though I'm still slightly confused (Math isn't my friend. Sigh.) at how that works...or how to change it.
..so let's say only a few of us throw a lot of snowballs on Dolly's team. We could hypothetically still loose if all the other members just sit in and don't do anything? Trying to wrap my mind around if the 2K snowballs I threw is worth it or not. :D
Is there going to be a way for non-active folk (who haven't thrown any/enough) to not drag us all down quite as much on either side?

It's based on the average snowballs thrown per person. So if there are two people on the team, one throws 1000 snowballs, and one throws 0, it works out to only 500 snowballs per person. So yes if there are enough people not throwing, you can still lose.
