SNOWFIGHT 2025

SNOWFIGHT 2025 - LET THE CHAOS BEGIN!

Winter has officially arrived in The Hive, and with it… an all-out blizzard of friendly mayhem. Grab your gloves, shake off the frost, and get ready to pelt fellow Bees with virtual snowballs while dodging incoming attacks with real-world jumping jacks.

This is a fast, silly, high-energy community event meant to get everyone moving and having fun. The more you dodge, the more snowballs you get - and the faster the snowstorm grows. Jump in, tag friends - and strangers, and see who can survive the flurry!

HOW TO PLAY

1. Everyone starts with two snowballs .
2. To attack, tag someone using @Username and throw one or two snowballs at them.
3. To dodge a snowball, do one jumping jack per snowball. Can’t do jumping jacks? Do side jacks instead.
4. Each snowball you successfully dodge rewards you with two new snowballs to throw back.
5. You have 24 hours to dodge any snowball thrown at you - after that, it counts as a hit.
6. The entire fight happens in this thread (keep all throws here!).
7. Not sure who to tag? Check who’s online at the bottom of the forum page.
8. Bring in as many Bees as you can - the bigger the snowstorm, the more fun it gets.

IMPORTANT NOTES

• It’s absolutely okay not to respond if you don’t want to participate - just ignore the tag.
• If you prefer not to appear in the “online” list during the event, you can enable Invisible Mode in your forum settings.

Once you join in, don’t forget to claim your SNOWFIGHT 2025 participation badge in your profile!

@Fanta press the space bar after the name and yes they’ll get a notification (if they have it active in their profile

 

[JesseW]

@JesseW

And now, thanks to graoumia's kind provision of additional snow (which missed me by inches!), I *do* have enough supply.

And since JJaka was kind enough to pop in so quickly... -- have another:
1x @JJakaSquirrel

 

[Fanta]

Pressing spacebar does not highlight the name with a link... oh well. Maybe it's my browser! I do get a listing I can select from when I do an @, will trust that for now - thanks for helping
