#### It's Glitchmas Time!

In case you've been lying awake worrying that the winter holidays would pass Glitch by and leave only the odd potato and lump of guano at your doorstep, all that yearning will not go unrewarded. Today, Glitchmas has arrived. Brand new goodies have materialized in Ur just for the occasion (dropped down the "seasonal features" chimney if you will) and will be around for you to make merry until a couple of days past Christmas.
To stir up the holiday spirit, a sleigh-load of clothing has found its way to the Wardrobe. You can deck your Glitch out in iconic fur-trimmed red velvet, or choose from a number of the most shamelessly festive sweaters Ur has seen.
Once you're dressed for the part (or not, if you're feeling all bah humbuggy) it's over meadows and through the caverns to the nearest Toy Vendor you go. They’ll have stocked up on three new items that are each a gateway to even more surprises as Glitchmas marches on.
So what are they?!?! Gift Boxes let you bestow well-deserved presents unto the Glitches who stand by your side through rookings and peat bog quests, in a package that's infinitely nicer to look at than a plain brown bag. They have three slots, and to the despair of ribbon factories everywhere, a one-step wrap comes included. If you’re skint and would rather send someone a more lightweight token of your affection, crimson Glitchmas Cards let you offer your tidings with a personalized signature. And lastly, but most awesomely, there are Glitchmas Crackers. They take two Glitches to open, with the lucky cracker owner giving the first pull and both getting a treat for their efforts.
So all those Glitchmas parties where this stuff can be pimped out would be twice as fun happening in … well, the snow. But you'll tire of throwing holiday shindigs that always end up with a couple of your guests croaking. Enter a new Party Space where the frost doesn't bite: Winter Wingding!
One final note before you rush in to try it all out: there may not be egg nog, but that doesn't mean you can't maybe 'nog' an Egg of your own.

- "Bah rookbug" bahahaha I love it. Also, thank you to everyone on the forums who put their heads down and brainstormed on what awesomeness Glitchmas should bring along with it. So many amazing ideas.

- Dang. You can't mail the gift boxes. Is there some magic that will make them stay put if you leave them on someone's doorstep? (I'm assuming not -- so you have to be in the same space at the same time to give someone a present?)
  EDIT: Oh, maybe you have to "Wrap" it first. That would make sense.

- The gift boxes appear to be broken. Trying to buy one reports that I have no more room in my inventory. A quick look at my bags shows around 90 empty slots.
  Posted 12 months ago by Nerd of Epic | Permalink
- I think you have to have an empty slot at the base level. You can't put a container in another container.
  Posted 12 months ago by Joscor So | Permalink
- OH... it's a bag. 3 slots, no less, no more. I get it. Thanks. :)

- where did the nog and egg thread go ? i am lost on this nog egg thing .. O-O
  Posted 12 months ago by serenitycat | Permalink
- Serenity: If you have a egg, click it and then click "Nog." A phrase pops up but that's all that happens. :p

- You get a little xp from nogging the egg :D

  Posted 12 months ago by Hindrick | Permalink
- I don't want to be the scrooge here but what is the point of nogging an egg? Last night, I tried and nothing happened and several people I have talked to found the same thing. Is it that we're missing something else that we should be doing?
