Oh man blah, thanks for sharing this file! I do love a good Excel spreadsheet I did a few minor changes to adjust it to my needs. Namely in the input berries columns as I track mine in a slightly different way. The other change is probably a more useful one to anyone else using the sheet. I've decided not to go for the big prize. I'll be trying to earn gems so that I might be able to buy the Lost Island. Yay! So I modified the cell N15 to only calculate how many iceberries were needed to get up to the second Snowflake as that's my goal. I don't know if this is something you want to add on or not. (Heck, if you want I can finagle around and add a drop down choice so that users may select which prize is their goal!)
I hope by "earning gems" you mean that you don't spend them for the event and not that you try to maximise left over iceberries. Otherwise I should tell you that leftover iceberries will be transformed into food not gems.
Oh yes, definitely not counting on gems after the event ends. The way I see it, BeB will probably end the same time the event does, so I will need to get it before then anyways! Thanks for the reminder though.
I only need 130 or so gems, so it seems like I should be able to make it!
Oh joy, guess what I just found on entering DV? I have new goals!! I have goals for the rifts dragons, and even more exciting, I have a goal for ovalith! Wow! I was really sad that I didn't need to breed bloom and panlong for anything. I even cried myself to sleep last night wishing I were one of those who needed to complete that goal. It was so kind of BFS to give me my deepest Christmas wish. I will have to think long and hard on how to repay them for this beautiful gift.
{wapa looks at her list of BEB needed dragons and puts ovalith at the bottom, WAAAAY at the bottom.}
{wapa thinks about purchasing gems, looks at her goal list again and decides Not on your life!}
I love my vine dragon avatar created by ElektronX. Now, if only BFS would add it to the game...

Oh the horror. I was glad my only new goals were Century which is done, and Panlong and Apocalypse, which are both on the way.
Koala, I hope you get them....
And, I just checked my goals while typing this. Add Light Rift, Dark Rift and.... Ovalith.
Sigh, 39 hours in the cave and the island, when they clear, I'll start hunting my last goal, Ovalith.

How's everyone doing with ice berry collection? I haven't been particularly zealous today as I'm in the midst of a move to a new house, and my total is 304. They seem to come almost naturally. I did spend some gems in the flow of things and have received a lot of gifts (Thanks!). Haven't tracked totals for growing treats and harvesting GC but I think I've probably maxed out there.
Cheers, Poppy

bye bye candy crush...thanks Greg. No iphone 6 in budget for me!!
As it happens I have just ordered a 6. I noticed it was on the list of "rewards" for using my credit card. And as it was a millennium ago that I last cashed in some rewards points ( I flew to England on them then ) I had plenty to spare. Almost but not quite enough for two.

Just in case anyone is wondering, it looks like using Kairos to speed up time does not reset the Sandakloz clock. Just tried it tonight with finding him first and then speeding up things, but no new Sandakloz appeared after that.

Around half a million. You will note I have not used any this millennium. That means at least 15 years worth. It helps that the card I use does not expire the points.

Hey guys! Popping out of hibernation! (I still stalk the forum occasionally)
Thought I'd mention that in the "buildings" menu where you can purchase the twilight tower, it does show "3/1" for how many I have. Lol. I will try to post a pic later. And NO, I have sadly still not been able to glitch my 3 towers since the Halloween update, even with the added Christmas background. No triple-auras.
Will try to be more forum active in the near future. Koala with those ice berries everyone!
Something was left in our collective stockings - for a price! Just noticed that some new goodies were added to the market. Winter Festival Bundle for 50 gems includes Everburning Candles, Candied Fence, Frozen Goodies, Frostree Planters, and Sandakloz's Hut. You can also purchase Candied Fences (left, right, and corner) for 2500 coin and Frostree Planters (left, right, and corner) for 10,000 coin. Maybe we can use these to corral Sandakloz. I have over 350 visitors and have been turning my park upside down trying to contain them in order to find the elusive Red One. It's like trying to herd cats!

Thanks. I'm going to the marketplace to do my Christmas shopping. Better than the mall!
Btw, does anyone know whether Goodies Treatery is anything more than a cute building?
Okay, couldn't help myself and now I am 50 gems lighter. Sandakloz's Hut is 3x3 and the other goodies in the bundle are 1x1. You get one of each of the fence parts. I like the candy cane fencing the best. After purchase you must go to your Social menu to retrieve each item just like the Island themes. If any one wants a look at them in a park setting, add me GCID: !!vp!! and I temporarily placed them on my new Lost Island.

Curse my need to have one of every limited decoration! I guess I'll be shelling out those 50 gems...

I was wondering the same thing. I always worry about the possibility that at some future point or event it becomes magical and starts giving out real treats. I also am curious about the size of the Snowflake habitat. I have some gigantic rocks on my Cold island that I will now store. I hope it fits in that footprint or a redecoration is required.

Especially since it does not seem you can buy the candles, goodies, and hut seperately. The wizards at BFS are getting tricky in figuring out ways to part us from our gems!
Hello DragonValer's. I haven't had the time to read through all of these posts, but I figured out ways to drastically improve the time to locate Sandakloz. First, all of these visitors (Snowmen, Penguins, Yetis, etc.) prefer to travel on paths, but don't always. We all know that they teleport. By creating branches of paths off of your portals and/or creating closed loops with these paths helps to keep them flowing along these paths so it is easier to track them. If you have big empty openings on any of your islands; just put a race track in there using the path tiles (try to keep these paths visible. The BEST suggestion that I've been using is to select any one path tile on any one island and depress the "Edit Paths" button in the lower right hand corner (Do NOT turn off or close this function just yet). This will allow you to navigate through all of the islands like an X-Ray. You can see everything (Including your visitors) right through all of the objects (trees, Giant Suns/Moons, etc., but NOT flying Dragons?) on your islands. When you spot Sandakloz, turn off the "add a path/tile" function by depressing "done" on your path/tile function and catch him for 6 ice berries. It sure beats just crossing your fingers. I hope this helps. Please share with other forums. Thx

I am running out of room on all of my islands. I have no idea where to place all of my Christmas decos as well as the new Snowflake habitat yet to come. Looks like I'll be saying goodbye to my giant Rainbow habitat factory
