^Well that's the thing... how come some people didn't get it? I have a feeling that there is one other stiupation. As I remember it, the NT piece about it was rather cryptic. They didn't say all you have to to is go there on the 31, they just said it could only be gotten on the 31st.

Here's what was said in the Neopian Times: I was thinking -- the way to unlock the winter sidebar ISN'T by staying up on Christmas Eve or Christmas night until midnight and refreshing at Terror Mountain... right? ~narelliagiven More hint requests?!
Ah, since it is a once-in-a-year opportunity, we'll let you off the hook this time. If you are celebrating Christmas, please don't upset Santa by staying up to midnight on Neopets. Should you meet the requirements, you'll be able to collect the sidebar by visiting the Advent Calendar at ANY time on December 31st. They said something about meeting the "requirements", so I definitely think there is something else besides going to the calender on the 31st. I don't have a snowflake, and I still got the sidebar so that must not be it. The only things I did was make sure I didn't miss a day of the calender this year, and had all my Advent items in my SDB before going.

Maybe that's what it is!! You have to get EVERY advent for the year. Brilliant!

Maybe that's what it is!! You have to get EVERY advent for the year. Brilliant! I don't have most of the advent items, I sold most of it. So I think making sure to collect every day is a very plausible reason! I started a board here, if you could you reply that would be appreciated neopets.com/neoboards/topic.phtml?topic=101903529

I have all kinds of snowflakes, but that didn't seem to matter. (I already have the Icy Snowflake Avi) I guess some just got it and some didn't, and I didn't. booohooo

I went and read through all those posts, dl. I don't have any other ideas after reading what all those people had to say. I did miss one day, but Jazzmyn gave me those prizes so I did have them. All of my advent prizes are in my gallery.
I tend to think it was just a random thing...some got it and some didn't. (which I don't think is fair btw)

I bet it's just a glitch on tnt's part since the site has been mucking up so bad lately, but who knows
I'm sorry that a lot of you didn't get it

Besides not getting that one, I used to have the Valentine's Day one and it's been gone for some time out of my drop down list.

On Halloween, I made sure to have five browsers opened all at once and refreshed them all several times just to be certain I got the Halloween one. And I did, lol.
