    You might want to add the instant-invite to closed beta from the special offers page to your post about closed beta invites. It's all the way at the bottom of the christmas page.

    "Anyone who uses this offer to sign up for twelve months of Membership will receive immediate access to the Closed Beta.
    Anyone who has signed up for six months of Membership will receive guaranteed access to the Closed Beta in January."

    So we who have 12month already, shouldnt we already be invited? Or do we get punished for already having paid?

    I started a thread on 18.6, but maybe this is the better place to post ...

    Did I read the holiday renewal offer correctly???

    If you renew your subscription for 12 months during the holiday promotion you will receive an immediate invite to the closed beta?

    What about all of us who are already on a 12 month subscription (some on 12 month subs for years ... ) and availed ourselves of previous offers such that we are already paid thru 2015? We have not received invites and are now behind players who did not renew previously and now choose to renew this current holiday offer?

    Damn, no closed beta access for me then. I've played since 2007, been paid since 2008 iirc and just because I don't prefer subscribing for 1 year rather than 1 month per time, I don't get the access. :/

    Anyway, is it just me or is the loginserver down? I can't log on! D: fixed

    It's a fairly transparent play to leverage the beta and buzz about the new engine to sell as many returning players on one-year subs as possible. Then they roll the beta engine to live in May to get another little burst of re-subs . . . and in August announce the game is being shut down by the end of the year. Not the worst plan for going out in style. It'll mean more people around for the 12/31/14 last day celebration anyway.

    Outdoor Holiday Leets

    Do we have the chance to find Ice-leets, Ant-leets, or Santaleets roaming around the countryside? Or do the holiday packages only drop from the Grinch in the Santa Workshop missions?

    I re-read the Holiday webpage and it wasn't clear, to me at least.

    Nice so if you buy a 12 month sub now you get immediate access but if you already have a 12 month sub you don't? How fair. I've got 2 12m subs i should have the same access as anyone buying right now.

    I say a higher priority since we have already proved that we love the game and want to keep playing. I have two accounts that are paid until:

    Membership valid until 2015-05-26 20:25:07

    And two more that are good to the middle of 2014.

    Players who have unique hardware that we think is important to test, might get a higher priority than the above mentioned list.

    I will add that I have 3 24" 1920 x 1200 monitors that support Nvidia's Surround mode. Surely this qualifies if not as Unique but certainly not as common!
    I also have a Unique sound setup. I have multiple sound cards all being used simultaneously...

    /me has hopeful fingers crossed....

    Happy 12th Birthday - still at the bottom

    I just noticed my account had its 12th Birthday yesterday ..happy birthday my account. But as I have only paid monthly, or quarterly for about 3 year period in the middle, and notwithstanding the number of funcom points I have bought, paid points I bought and upgrades I have bough all through the account...I am still at the lowest priority for closed beta access...happy birthday but no present it seems Oh - and I think this may well be my first post (or at least the first one I can remember).

    Its great to be a customer...

    I have done all the Santa Workshop Missions, the Ginger Leet, all the other Santa Leet missions, and the Stolen gifts mission in Borealis. None of them give the new tree outfit as a reward.

    Anyone willing to tell the secret of finding the new tree outfit?

    edit: Thank you sooo much for putting 3 of the stolen pkgs on top of buildings so small toons have to find ways to climb shear walls to get the stolen gifts ... one of the three is impossible. I had to get the candycane with a toon that can fly/jump tall bldgs. in order to finish mission with my new small toon.

    Get parrot from an advy, I know it's hard to think for yourself from time to time, but there are such things as miracles.

    Setup.
    One bright day in the middle of the night,
    Two dead boys got up to fight.
    Back to back they faced each other,
    Drew their swords, and Shot each other.
    A deaf policeman heard the noise,
    He came and killed those two dead boys.
    If you don't believe this lie is true... ask the Blind Man, He saw it too.
