Snow Fairies

December 7, 2017 4:11 pm

We’re doing something a little differently this month in regards to Snow Fairies. From this point until 11:59pm on December 14th, they’ll be floating around site! On the 15th, they’ll be going out a different way. This will switch up on the 22nd, as well. There will be news posts for how they’ll be going out that week! :)

Catching the fairies floating will count towards the Fairy Catcher! achievement.

The Snow Fairies will continue going out by random event all month, don’t worry.

To answer you guys in one comment:

As the news post says, "The Snow Fairies will continue going out by random event all month" which means right now you have both floating items AND random events as ways to get them. The floating items part will change to a different method later, but the random events will continue throughout the month alongside the other methods for getting them.

Floating items are a common part of a lot of site events. You can hide them with custom CSS if you find them obtrusive.

The achievement for freeing the fairies has nothing to do with how you FIND the fairies, and is still awarded for releasing a certain number of them from your inventory. Fairies you free still count towards this achievement as always. Fairies you find count towards a separate, different achievement for finding them.

Not sure if this has been answered already, but since they aren't random events anymore... do we still need to release the fairies from our inventories? Just wanted to make sure if it still counted towards the achievement or not?

Yay! Now it might not take me 5 years to get the release achievement!

I just got DOUBLE green snow faires; same color, same page, different event. It was a random event and one floating on the site!

Personally, I liked them better as unobtrusive random events. I don't care about fairies or the achieve, so they're just kind of annoying IMO.

I like change. c: This sounds like fun!

December 8, 2017, 10:31 pm by

Look forward to seeing how the fairies will be released soon. I've just seen one as a floating item.

December 8, 2017, 7:44 pm by

Are these fairies supposed to be Random events AND floating items as well? I just got both on one page, I know the sites playing up today, maybe its that?

December 8, 2017, 9:12 am by

OH! That's probably what's happening. Thank you xD

The fairies expire once a new one shows up. If you're opening 20 tabs at a time to release fairies, it doesn't matter how many floating items are on those pages, you can only collect the most recent one. If you're trying to grab a lot of floating items you have to limit how many tabs you open at a time.

Which achievement is it? Free all the Fairies, yeah?

December 8, 2017, 2:30 am by

I have the catch achievement. Finally starting to work on releasing them all. Silly fairies

December 8, 2017, 1:41 am by

Much better, already got more of them than thru a week of RE's. Finished the catching achieve too. Now releasing...

December 7, 2017, 11:51 pm by

I used to like the Fairies. Now I think im going to hate them as much as the pumpkins & flowers Im a bundle of JOY tonight :)

December 7, 2017, 10:14 pm by

Thank you

December 7, 2017, 10:11 pm by

Oh man. Why do you give me an easier way to collect fairies? I have over 10k in my vault... I don't have a problem. coughs I bought quite a bit before the achievements came out. They were dirt cheap then.

December 7, 2017, 10:03 pm by

I'm only grabbing them in the windows where they pop up ^^

December 7, 2017, 9:55 pm by

Are you grabbing them on those pages (where you're releasing them with multiple windows) or actively playing around the site (in one window, no other ones to subeta open)

December 7, 2017, 9:49 pm by

I only open new windows when I release fairies. I get the error when I try to grab them

December 7, 2017, 9:46 pm by

Do you have multiple windows open around the site? If you try to grab one from an older window (and a new fairy has spawned) then you'll get an error

December 7, 2017, 9:26 pm by

I keep getting this error multiple times. It happened with the pumpkins too

Oh No! We have no record of this floating item (131553)!

December 7, 2017, 8:18 pm by

Thank you! Honestly, I've wanted fairies to be floating items for years.

December 7, 2017, 8:08 pm by

Plot? No? Oh okay. [hoard fairies]

December 7, 2017, 8:06 pm by

Yeah, it just doesn't show as the actual prize on the achievement (layouts are dumb that way)

December 7, 2017, 7:58 pm by

Can we still get the layout from releasing fairies?

December 7, 2017, 7:43 pm by

looks at the 87 snow fairies currently in the vault laughs maniacally

December 7, 2017, 7:05 pm by

Yay! <3

December 7, 2017, 7:03 pm by

Thanks anon, close, but no matter how much I lick it, it wont stick!

December 7, 2017, 7:00 pm by

Cant someone just sneak this little lady in somewhere? I wont tell, I promise!

December 7, 2017, 6:47 pm by

good

December 7, 2017, 6:46 pm by

Ohh okay, thank you! :) For some reason I completely forgot about this achievement after getting it.

December 7, 2017, 6:44 pm by

I personally feel very attacked by the fairies

December 7, 2017, 6:36 pm by

nope, it’s not new. I’m not adding new tiers to the achievement where you release a bunch of fairies. :)

December 7, 2017, 6:30 pm by

Not more fairy tiers! We already have 50,000 snowballs to throw, and 1,000 fairies is a big enough task already. I'm only at 125 after 3 years.

December 7, 2017, 6:26 pm by

Okay kind of sleepy but Fairy Catcher is a new achievement, right? :)

December 7, 2017, 6:07 pm by

"danger" it's not like they're attacking you

December 7, 2017, 5:55 pm by

U m... I object to more tiers for freeing them!

December 7, 2017, 5:44 pm by

I was so wonderfully pleased by that, thank you for your contribution 👏

December 7, 2017, 5:42 pm by

Is it working? When I view my inventory, with all the fairies in it, not getting any achievement.

December 7, 2017, 5:36 pm by

What does this mean?

Are we in danger of an invasion of fairies?

December 7, 2017, 5:32 pm by

"Going out" a different way, huh? Cool.

December 7, 2017, 5:27 pm by

I've been capped for awhile and went to go check my vault, only had 24 fairies in there. Hope to see them floating about. I guess I should start releasing them.

December 7, 2017, 5:22 pm by

They're minions you can give to your pet, or just pretty items to collect if you want.

December 7, 2017, 5:13 pm by

I was just thinking about how cool floating fairies would be since I've only collected about four from random events since December started ;~;

December 7, 2017, 5:09 pm by

Is there a way to release more then one, at the same time ?

December 7, 2017, 5:03 pm by

What exactly is the point of faeries besides the achievement? I don't collect them when i see them, but was curious what they are for?

December 7, 2017, 4:52 pm by

HYPE ♥

December 7, 2017, 4:52 pm by

no one is forcing you to help the fairies gosH THE PRIZE WOULD BE THEIR GRATITUDE IF ANYTHING SINCE YOU SHOULD BE SETTING THEM FREE

December 7, 2017, 4:51 pm by

Throwing this out now, if we're forced to complete more Fairy tiers, then can the prize at least be Fairy Tears?
