I pretty much just stayed on the stone path to get to the safe zones. Prior to figuring out that plan, I had only 1 run-in with a rock monster when I was going cross-country by the tree - that is how I found the safe zone for that area - but my later, and my alt's - attempts (focusing on following the path to the safe zones) were both rock monster free. So it was not at all as bad as I had been imagining it would be. Would you say that the prize you got is worth doing all this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get it or don't get it. On the plus side, you get something you didn't pay for and might find useful. On the down side, you lost a few minutes out of your busy day. There's not a big deal either way, as far as I can see. Still, as they say, never miss a chance to kick a gift horse in the teeth. 🙄 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleMe Jewell Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 11 hours ago, Pixels Sideways said: Hello Lindens and Moles: #3 box isn't working. This is frustrating. Especially this box because getting to it isn't easy. Keep getting this chat message: [03:43] Winter Gift Box v 1.14: Please stop clicking the box. It will not respond to you again unless someone else clicks it first. Another person who was here couldn't get the box to work either. Now we have sadz... The mist just kicked me way from the box -- now I have to try to get back to the box again. Super sadz. I will check back later. Good night. When you go back, stay in the safe zone after you cross into the sim that has the box. Then just cam to the box and click it. Won't fix box issues, but at least you won't have mist or other things get you. 8 hours ago, Coby Foden said: New challenge to the moles: how to get the boxes working so that they don't break ever so often. Or move mysteriously up in the air. In areas where flying is not allowed even. While we could override that at Winter Wonderland, you can be permanently banned from LR and related for flying there. 4 hours ago, Prokofy Neva said: Would you say that the prize you got is worth doing all this? I really like the bookcase - it is 13 LI, but overall a nice bookcase. The lamp is okay - it is 4 LI. The rugs, one dark and one light, are 5 LI each, which IMO is ridiculous for a mediocre rug. Heck, I shrunk the rug down as tiny as it would go and it is still 4 LI. I stayed at the landing point and cammed the adjacent sims, based on the hints here, looking for the tree that glows in its base. I then marked the location to get a map beacon and determined a path to the appropriate safe zones - one in the landing sim and then to one in the adjacent sim. Once I hit the safe zone in the sim with the box, I stayed there and cammed to the box to click it. I'm horrid at LR type of games, so to me, that was the quickest safest way of getting the box. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes - I like the bookcase and the lamp, and it wasn't really a lot of trouble after seeing the hints here about following the signs to the forest. The 2nd time with an alt was easy, because I knew where the safe zones were (they look like a trampoline to me) and I only had to get to the 2nd one (and then I used my camera skills). I ignored all crystals and didn't deviate from my path to collect any. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callum Meriman Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 It is handy that map beacons can be used to get there safely, and that this box can be clicked from a large distance in the same region. It's not one you need to stand next to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VelvetCandi Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 (edited) Is there a trick to getting the box to work? I was sick on Monday was only able to get on a computer today... Did I miss it? Or is the gift box broken somehow? Edited December 8, 2018 by VelvetCandi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is one copy of the box per instance of tthe Realms - just try another until they are fixed. wait in front of the portal until it says "now sending to LR $NUMBER" and test them all.

And definitely do not go off of the HUD indicator to know if you got the box or not, because it does not always update correctly until it has be detached and re-attached (sometimes twice). Check your inventory for the new box. Edited December 8, 2018 by LittleMe Jewell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LittleMe Jewell Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Given everything we have so far, I'm still thinking that the "very special new and exclusive gift" for Premiums that will "go with your Winter Swaginator gifts" is going to be a cabin or small house. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alyona Su Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) I'm guessing PaleoQuest - if I'm wrong, please help ... someone helped me, thank you. ~facepalms~ As a side note, I did discover that, apparently, Genus Heads must be BANNED in PaleoQuest LOL (It detaches when I go in and no matter what I do, cannot reattach, but when I leave it reattaches on its own.)

Alyona Su Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Wow, finally, this weeks clue is descriptive, intuitive and easy to find. And of all of the locations, this one feels most appropriate for the final Winter Swaginator gift. What a great little spot in SL! Snapshot-worthy, folks! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Female Winslet Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 (edited) This gift just happens to be where I spend a great deal of my time in SL these days. That made the clue pretty easy to figure out. It took me 30 seconds to find it and 25 of those were spent flying from where I was when I looked at the blog post with the clue. Please do say hi if you are in the area. And do take some time to look around. There are spots all over the surrounding area that are just gorgeous. I own an expanding land area in the region and I really love it. I also use part of it for public, community display that is open now. I also don't know where else to post this, but I would like to thank LL and the mole team for some truly fabulous prizes on this hunt. Just perfect for the season. And, unlike most hunts, the prizes have been very useful pretty much immediately given what time of year it is.
