Because, as always, we have many wonderful games waiting to meet you, and this is the perfect moment to let them shine in their own winter light.

Wonderful games waiting to meet you? Or maybe some pieces of * thrown out from beta?
Rules are broken, UI is broken. Any reason for release? Yes - winter event!
Shouldn't there be at least one simple rule: do not release a game if there are a lot of open bug reports?

You get trophies on day 1, day 10, day 20 and on the last day for opening gifts consecutively. If you miss one day, like me, well...

I'm more than sure that the conditions for the last trophy should be decreased from 31 days to 29-30, because in December there are at least two very important celebrations when everyone is concentrated on the family issues only.

Why? You just have to click a box. It's not like you have to play the game or learn new rules etc. Click box alongside deal with any turn based actions for the day and job done. You can do that at your leisure any time within that 24hr window.

I don't know what the point of the award is though. No one sees it anyway and there are no real XP gained nor anything else beyond personal satisfaction at having not forgotten to click the box for 31 days.

Does anyone else think the 20 day award looks more special than the 31 day one?

Am I the first one who got the award?

A PRISM of games!

No. See my post above yours but I don't think a few minutes really matters. The award is kind of pointless anyway

And yet someone changed his BGA avatar to last year's image when he failed to collect it because he thought he deserved it because some glitch supposedly denied him his rightful collection of pixels.

What? Seriously? Who did that? I hope you're not suggesting I did that because I did no such thing.

I didn't name the user because it would get me moderated. I in no way suggested it was you.

And, yes, seriously. It was one of the most cringeworthy things I've seen on BGA.

It was suggestive to me - "someone else" wouldn't have been - thank you for clarifying.

Okay, I got moderated because I've lost my temper after the another bug ruined my game. Maybe I was wrong posting that but: will this ever stop? I mean releasing games (potentially great popular games) that are definitely not ready for releasing?
