Snowballs!

The Snowtapult is officially open! You can purchase snowballs from the Avalanche Emporium and use the snowtapult to hurl them at people.

You will likely get a break from snowballs during Survival. More information about this during the holiday.

I’m not sure where to post this. Is it possible to have both snowball places be put on the sidebar on the news page like Melody’s Cottage was?? Please??

Are the snowballs not vending in Frosty Claw this year? I haven't seen any pop up yet, despite using all of my daily vends.

I remember last year they had to turn the snowballs off for survival because they were messing with the infection skins but forgot to turn it back on after survival was over. Hope the snowballs return after survival.

Maybe a box of random snowballs added that gives you # snowballs for a slight overpayment of buying that many outright could be added to the shop for minimal progaming changes.

The icy snowball is rather pretty ^^ some of the snowballs are really cute. I've been doing random ones, not sure which of the overlays I like the most.

I've been busy throwing Icy Snowballs at myself since it started. They're so pretty. :D

Really would love to have a mass-buy option for snowballs. Doesn't have to be anything crazy, even just adding like a Buy 10 option would be great. Though my preference would be having a little ticker on the side kinda like you do when you spend battle exp. You can implement the inventory limit to it too.

Is there any way we could work on opting out of Snowballs the way we were able to opt out of Luminaire gifts this year? I don't necessarily have a problem with being snowballed; I just don't particularly care for just because sometimes it can interfere with a really good HA.

That said, I know some users who do have issues with it, so I was just wondering if there was a possible opt-out in the works, so that the users who get snowballed are the ones who really want to. Just something to consider.

Thanks so much for all you do!

Didn't realize you could throw them at yourself. Glad I read the comments, I always felt bad throwing randomly and never really bothered much with this achievement (it's tedious too though so that's part of it). Might try to make some progress on it this year.

The shieled isn't fully effective, though, it only reduces your chances, you can still get them occasionally

I got the 30,000 tier last year not easy but it is possible. So have faith, you will get there.

Throwing snowballs random is faster for those that want to work on the achievement.

Since I usually only throw about 500 snowballs a year and I'm at 2000 now, it will only take me 56 years to get to 30000!

For people who dont want to be hit with snowballs, use a Snowball Reflecting Shield within your avatar. It will prevent your avatar from getting hit.

Bam! Ouch! You tried to throw a Banana Snowball at but they reflected it! Maybe you should be a little more careful next time... LoL

Throw all you want... to have an "issue" with having snowballs thrown at your HA, is really just asinine. :/

It's actually 150k seconds, thus 2.5k minutes, which is around 1.7 days. Seems fair enough considering it's not meant to be an easy achievement. The 30m we have to spend on it is the real scary part here 😦

There's a fair chance my math is the one skewed though.

Considering the 30k achievement tier, there has to be a way to buy in bulk. It's near enough impossible otherwise.

Forgive me if my maths is skewed, but I think I'm right in saying that if you were to buy a snowball every 5 seconds, this would take 150k minutes, aka 2500 hours aka 104 solid days. That's without actually throwing them.

I know it's something to work on rather than a 'get done quick' kinda achievement, but spending 104 days on it no matter how many years you spread that out over is just immense.

Snowball's aren't vending?

Feel free to snowball me too. I'll bomb some of you. I'm only at 600/30,000...I do wish this would be easier. At least buy in bulk or be able to bomb multiple people at once. It's super daunting looking at how many I have to go to reach 30,000. Feels impossible.

Thanks for assuring us about the MM items still being released instead of us having to wait another year for them, that's all I really cared about.

Also, sorry but I don't like snowballs appearing on my HA. I would let people throw them at me for achievements if not for that.

The time limit isn't 30 seconds, it's only 5! I'll adjust this though and make the message stop saying 30 if I can. :)

I would also like to ask if the buying cooldown could please be removed? Or lowered to one second. Please? We can’t refresh the page to buy again so no one is going to hold down the button and mass buy.

Why are snowballs even still a thing? ;;

"Oh No! You've got 30 seconds until you can buy again!"

You have to buy them one at a time, and can only buy every 30 seconds, but you need to throw like 30,000 for an achievement? It's not even worth the half ounce of lag it could add to the site...
