Snowman Building Contest



HELLO AGAIN, everyone! We’re back in the snolympics! We can never resist a good snow-themed competition, but this year we decided to put our competitive natures aside and make OTHER people battle for the win! Nothing like a little team spirit, am I right?

Oh Tobi, you’re such a goof. Gosh it’s freezing. Was it this freezing last year?  Anyway, we’ve called together some of our fellow shopkeepers and mischief makers to take part in this little competition. Obviously we’d love for EVERYONE IN THE WORLD to build snowmen, but there’s just not enough room for you all in Peka Park!

So instead, you can pick a team to support! Pick a team and help them build the biggest and best snowman. There are five teams in all, and you can donate snow as well as food, drink and warm clothes to help them and keep up their morale once the competition starts!  You’ll get a participation prize for your team, a pet slot, and for taking part at all you’ll get a special ice skin, courtesy of Aspen! If you can’t decide which participation prize you want, don’t worry - Saggitarius has kindly offered to stock them in his Millionaire Centre after the competition.

The winning team’s supporters will get a forum title and a special prize, as well as a cool new trophy for their profiles.


Unlike last year's snowball fight, there won't be any individual prizes after the fact; this competition is a team affair!

Team signups start now and will close on Monday at 12 noon. You can still participate from the sidelines after that and receive Aspen’s ice skin, but you will no longer be eligible for winning or the team participation prize.

Now - onto the team selection! Visit us HERE to learn more about each team and pick which one you want to join!

Plus, we've got an outdoorsman and an artist on our team. Strong arms + artistic vision = best snowmen ever.

Is it gonna be calculated on averages ? I always seem to pick the least popular teams and don't want to be penalised for it!

Please, for the love of Earth, DO NOT pick a team just because you like the participation prize, as it says right in the news post ALL participation prizes will be available to EVERYONE in the Millionaire center after the event.

"If you can’t decide which participation prize you want, don’t worry - Saggitarius has kindly offered to stock them in his Millionaire Centre after the competition."

Also, team Nature is going to win, so the rest of ya'll should just go home.

Oh gosh, I thought I would go Team Nature, but then I read the description for Team Stick Together and their item. It's almost word for word like my relationship with my dad. Sheer warm fuzzies may influence this decision!

Hard, hard choice as none of these are NPCs I really love and would like to help out. Will we get an alert that it's going to close before it does, or will someone forgetful like me have to pick now?

You can donate as much as you want from one category or all of them! We just wanted to provide people with a few different things they can donate so no one item gets too ridiculously inflated. :)

AH this is great to hear, I didn't want it to be one of those things like this Team didn't see enough recruits so we'll just divide them up :)

Just curious, do you have to donate something from each category? Snow, food, clothes, etc, or can you just donate from one?

The teams will still be around! We, as users, are just helping them out some! They’ll still build an awesome snowman with or without our help (they’ll just be hungry, cold, and sad while doing it)

If there are Teams that don't get enough members, will they be disqualified or will they still be able to do it?

Oh goodness, there are so many great teams, but the father-daughter team is no contest for me. Two of my favorite NPCs and their teamwork blurb is adorable. Let's whoop some tush, Team Stick Together!
