Aymas is quickly approaching, and everyone is scrambling to wrap those final gifts and cook the gingerbread to defeat Aketch but that is not all we have prepared for you! I am sure that many of you have been wondering what all those beautiful ornaments are for?

We thought it would be fun this year if you could Decorate your own tree! This fun feature can actually use any site item as long as they are not privately owned! Just go to your inventory, choose the item you want to use and click "Place in Aymas Decoration Trunk"! Do not worry, any item that you place into the trunk is removable, so you don't have to worry about losing any super shiny items you may want to decorate your tree with.


Of course to decorate your tree you have to actually have a tree, now don't you? Never fear! That is where our newest friendly Site Character comes in at!

Madam Cactus has opened up a lovely new store that has plenty of beautiful trees as well as all of our new ornaments!


Decorating your tree can be a little complicated so a few tips:
-The icon in the left is your trunk, click it to reveal a collapsible menu with all the items you add
- After placing an item on the canvas you click it to "activate" it, from this you can position the item anywhere on the canvas and you also have several more icons available.
mirror.png Allows you to mirror the item and flip it horizontally
check.png Takes you out of the item edit screen so you can select another item
resize.png Allows you to adjust whether you want to use the small or large size
close.png Will put the item back in your Decoration Trunk
- Save Tree will save whatever progress you have done so your tree will look the same next time you return
- Clear tree removes everything from the canvas
- We will be hosting a Tree Decorating Contest later on!
Please remember the Site ToS. These trees cannot be labeled as you would a forum so all trees must remain PG13, any found to be breaking this rule will have their trees cleared and an official warning issues.

We also have a fun holiday game for you, otherwise known as Bingo! This task sheet has 24 different objectives for you to accomplish. When you finish a column, row, or either diagonal you can claim your prize! The prizes are one of the random holiday items (stockings, presents, etc), and many of these tasks can be completed simply by playing on the site. There is a few specialty tasks that I will go a little more in depth with!
- Master the Holiday Zone: The quests for Holiday Lane has been reset (this is what we had meant when we originally opened it and levels were changed). You must complete all Holiday Lane quests for this Achievement.
- Enter your Aymas Tree into the Tree Contest: This one is not achievable yet, as we are not opening the contest yet.
- Participate in Saving Aymas: Chapters 1-3, this is the Battle of the Gingerbreads and is accomplished by turning in one of the new gingerbreads that gets released with each chapter. So for credit for Chapter 1 you need to submit a Foot Soldier or Koaf Mount, the others will be announced as we progress through the story.
- Collect an Item from Advent: While the holiday Advent is scheduled to end on the 25th, we will still be giving out presents afterwords so do not worry!
- Adopt a New Pet: This means from the Adoption Center
- Buy something from the Seasonal Shop: This one is also not achievable yet, once the shop opens it will be.


Once you have completed your board you will be able to collect the "Blackout Prize" at the bottom, which will be a gift pile of a few of the holiday items!


These events will run into January, as we know this is a pretty big time for everyone to be spending time with their family and traveling. We will give notice before the events are going to end, to try to ensure everyone is able to participate! We hope that you enjoy everything and from the Aywas family to yours, we wish you a Very Merry Aymas!


Updates: The candy cane glitch has been resolved. You will have to collect 100 candy canes in adventure, unfortunately this is not retroactive.
Book of Completion now works with the achievement, however you will still be locked out for a week as per the books rules.
The museum collection is working as intended, however please make sure that you are completing the collection.
You may open your wrapped gift, however the lottery tickets will not work until tomorrow.
The Aymas Tree should work properly in Chrome now.
I am currently at my offline job but trying to work with Yasu as glitch reports come in. Please ping @489 if you are experiencing a glitch. (I apologize for any typos, editing this from my phone!)
Update 10:50pm AST: The Candy Canes are still causing us difficulties apparently, we apologize for this inconvenience. Yasu is going to change the way the coding works so it registers how many is in your inventory, regardless of the source. However as it is Christmas Eve he may not get to it today, please rest assured it will be done shortly and all you will have to do is go to the Bingo page to update the board. We will let you know once it is completed, Merry Aymas!

It would be pretty stupid and unfair for them to do that, so I'm assuming yes.

Ahh, I love the Holiday Tree, can it be open year round pretty please!? We could decorate it for all the holand just for fun. A quickstock option for it would also be wonderful. XD

I'm not able to decorate my tree. When I click on items from the side panel nothing happens.

Kaiyo dear 🎁❄Kaiyo❄⛄ (#489), there is no advent prize for today. Merry Christmas! <3

No Advent Prize for today, so what happened to "we will still be giving out presents afterwords so do not worry!"? I haven't missed a day, so I filled that square, but with so many people being very busy these last few days, I'm sure there are a lot of BINGO cards not touched, there...

I'm guessing this' just an overlooked error, but I still wanted to point it out, just in case.

I'd actually like to be able to do more than one tree, like maybe three; I have two themes in mind, but I don't want to redo my tree OR have to choose between the two themes,
:-p

Glynda {Conquest} (#21034) Seacrest is right xD we definitely wouldn't do that
Tee Hi (#39846) Christmas Squirrel (#34278) I had said that they will still be given out but that does not guarantee that they will be *every* day, we are not going to just cut everyone off on a task like that... have a little bit of faith in us, please guys? I stated that the Events would be running into January, so that people who are on vacation would still have plenty of time, and we are not going to be going back on that.
Haruspexx (#72967) That... is extremely weird, do you have enough inventory spaces? Please PM me.
Dragongirl (#36910) Aywas has never been coded for mobile, and anything that does happen to work on mobile is coincidental. As for the flour it is in the Random Crap store with a constant stock.
Rhee (#258) There was an issue with the unwrapped ones not swapping to wrapped so we forced all of them on site at the time to wrap themselves, including the ones that hadn't been sent yet. They seem to still be causing difficulties but due to the holidays Yasu and I were both spending time with our families.

Oh, thank you for clarifying. I didn't see that the advent calender was supposed to be done. Thank you for giving folks a chance to get the bingo for it anyway. <3
