Event Basics
Event Basics
Every year, for the whole month of December, you can leave gift bundles on other players' Den pages! Being a mini event, this event does not have an exclusive currency, an event shop, or any unique explore encounters.
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.
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.
On your own Den page, you can view how many gifts have been left for you. Other players cannot see this number.
Opening Gifts
Opening Gifts
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.

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the gifting menus from other player's pages too but note that the steps provided to apply the CSS to your page are outdated. Alternatively, you can simply copy and paste the below link into the CSS Files section of your Den page.
