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!

Ahhh, a refreshing Ten balls-o'-snow to dodge. I was wondering how many I'd wake up to. All dodged. Let's see who might need some cool, refreshing ammunition...

First, must return the favor:
2x to @MangoTux
2x to @AquaMarie
2x to @Maegaranthelas
2x to @TopNotch
2x to @NightWolf714

And now, with my *other* ten...

1x to @KaylaKhann -- welcome!
1x to @XiaoHua -- also welcome!
1x to @pnkpttr -- such a snowy dog in your profile picture, must have more snowballs!
1x to @lizita -- since 'tis requested.

And some to try and bring in more throwers:
1x to @anotheranathema -- loved your exercise goal of living up to the character you play!
1x to @Subhashbha -- hi!
1x to @Ariaana21
1x to @UroborosDJ

That leaves two more for our gracious hosts:
1x to @Damer
1x to @neilarey

12 more dodged. I never thought I'd be okay with perpetuating a cycle of (snow-based) violence, yet here I am!

3x incoming:
@Maegaranthelas
@brandteixeira
@AceofSwords
@Antheia & Colossus
@KaylaKhann
@Damer

All dodged.
Since you seemed a bit intimidated by your 13, here have just one:
1x to @Maegaranthelas

But, @brandteixeira ... ohh, for you:
3x to @brandteixeira

And @KaylaKhann -- you seem to have a good idea of how to use ammunition, so:
3x to @KaylaKhann

And graoumia is awake, apparently, so:
2x to @graoumia

Let's toss a few to bring in more people:
1x to @eeek
1x to @AceofSwords

That just leaves one more.... which obviously needs to go to the OP this year:
1x to @Jaga
