Ok, this is my first UO Christmas, and I was looking forward to see what the gifts were going to be!

I happen to like all of them, haven't had a chance to claim them yet, with the extra shard downtime currently, but I will!

I know that the trees have specific dates that they can be used (someone was kind enough to give me a couple from last year a while ago), but what about the rest of the items, esp like the garland? I couldn't really find an answer anywhere else about this....

Thanks for the work ya'll do everyday!

Other Christmas decorations like wreaths, mistletoe, sleighs and reindeer can be left up all year so garland might fall into that category as well.

I claimed mine on atl, but the eggnog & the garland was invisible :( box had the right count, but could only c the card & the cane. I was able to c teh snow & ice ... didnt get the tree cuz i thought it was the same as the other, but guess ima have to get it now lol

hopefully the patch or whatever they r doin will fix the eggnog & garland for me

you can get a colorful box during the trades, I got one was like "WOW". Have not seen the rare icy, I understand its round? Any pictures of it around?
Lord Drakelord, I believe there is a picture of one here:

I think the icy patch is just the cutest idea ever!

Fitting for me too...we've just started thawing from an ice storm where I live, and last season, we were without power for 9 days also due to ice, just a few weeks after I had decided to return to UO! :D

EDIT: Too slow with the picture, glad you found it...good luck on getting one too! :)

We need to be able to set the icy patch on the ground and have it work anywhere - like in front of a scripter....

Yes, thank you so much for the great gifts, Devs!
Maybe I can host some dueling events on the Icy Patches!

Just a little something i discovered with the icy patches just now.
I locked one down on the front steps of my castle, when you walk over it heading in & get the falling over one it bumps you up to the top story. Personally i think its great! but it may cause trouble.
