Gifting

Gifting

Every year, for the whole month of December, you can leave gift bundles on other players' Den pages!


Leaving Gifts

Leaving Gifts


Visiting the Den page of a player who has rolled over that December will reveal the above interface. Note that the player must have rolled over at least once since December 1st. If they've logged in (and thus been "active"), but not rolled over, the option will still not appear.


In this menu, you can select up to 5 components to leave for that player! The components could be any of your items, or a bundle of currency. Silver Cone and Gold Cone bundles count as separate components in the total 5. You can include any item or currency as long as it isn't account bound!


Food left in gifts will not rot, meaning the carcasses you leave for other players will still be fresh when they open the gift!


After you have selected your gift items, you can choose some gift wrapping. This is purely cosmetic, and just for fun!



Finally, you can choose to leave your gift anonymously, meaning that the player opening it will not be able to see who left it.


Opening Gifts

Opening Gifts

Throughout the month, you can see how many gifts have been left for you on your Den page. Other players cannot see this number.



You can start opening any gifts left for you on December 25th, and you have until the end of the day on December 31st to open all of them! If you're not able to open your gifts in time, don't worry! They will stick around until next year.


Achievements

Achievements

December gifting comes with a few unlockable achievements! Earning these achievements does not reward anything, but they can be a fun goal to aim for. You can view your achievements on the Achievements page, with these ones being under the Events tab.


It's Not a Popularity Contest!
Receive 100 gifts from others during the December gifting event.
In order to achieve this, you must be gifted 100 gifts from other players.


A Generous Benefactor
Leave 100 gifts for others during the December event.
In order to achieve this, you must leave 100 bundles in separate player's dens.


Last Minute Shopping
Leave a gift for another member on the 24th December.
In order to achieve this, you must leave a bundle in another player's den on Christmas Eve.


Happy Holidays!
Open a gift on the 25th December.
In order to achieve this, you must open a gift from another player on Christmas Day.


Opting Out

Opting Out

There is not yet an official way to opt out of the December gifting event.


Many players write on their Den or Profile page that they are not participating, requesting others to not gift them. You can also apply CSS to your den page to remove the gifting menu, but this method will not work on visitors who have CSS disabled.


You can find the CSS to use in this forum post, which also provides methods for removing the gifting menus from other player's pages too. Note however that the post is old and the steps for completing the task are outdated! Alternatively, you can simply copy and paste the below link into the CSS Files section of your Den page.
