I'm a bit behind on the event due to being out of town with limited Internet access over the weekend, so I just got my first upgrade to the Snow Fort today. I'm hoping for another before the end of the day.

I'm going to try doing a few tournaments this week to boost my arsenal and maybe get an extra Advent Chocolate or two. :)

Things are moving along quickly now. :D I just have the three levels of Snow Cannon and Lv.3 of the Festive Tavern to go.

I'm still puzzling over the Paint Can on a Rope.

I just finished the Festive tavern. I'm almost up to the first level of blocks for the Winter Walls. I'm hoping to make a bit of progress this week since I'll be home a bit more this week.

I have the first two levels of the walls built, and I'm almost to the first level of the Tavern (I have quite a few Festive Treasure Chests I'm waiting to open until I have that built). After that, I think I'll just build as I get the Blocks for each upgrade, as none of them really seem pressing to me at the moment. It takes 7.5 runs through the event to fully upgrade the Snow Fort, and I'm about halfway through run #3. If all goes well, I should be able to finish it before the event ends. Now that I get extra Snowball cheese when I catch the right mice, it's much easier to get a good stockpile going, particularly with all the Seasoned Gouda I had from the last event with that cheese. :D

Progress will be slow overall. Laptop is now deceased after seven good years, thus internet access when I am off duty is nil. Kinda nice not having it, really. Mucking my way through. Festive Tavern will be done today.

That must not take into account the extra snow blocks that drop off of mice. I'm a little ways into my 6th run with only 3 more upgrades to go. I should get the next one when I catch Reinbo, another when I catch the SNOW Golem, and the final piece shortly after I start my 7th run. So that's... 6.5 runs for me.

Yeah, that's ignoring any extra drops, since those aren't something you can bank on or predict. I'm slightly ahead of my estimate due to extra Blocks dropping from mice, but not enough to make too much of a difference at this point. :)

I'm with FK; I've just started my sixth run with only the last three upgrades to go. We must be about even in bricks as well because I should be done around the time I catch my 6th Snow Golem. So we'll see! I've got enough Boccochini to see me through; how about you? ;)

I need 59 Snow Blocks to complete my Snow Fort. I'll get 30 with the Golem, and then another 20 from the Snow Boulder. Hopefully I'll pick up the other 9 from random mice so I don't have to get back to Reinbo again. ;)) I have 44 Snowball Bocconcini left which is enough for the two boss mice. We'll see after that. :)

I've doing too many Festive Fodder tourneys - I have hunted with Festive Feta, thus only built 8 out of 13 sections of the Fort, but accumulated 227 Snowball cheese :p

I'm building the Fort now - but then we're stuck on a Gingerbread mouse on a Nice Treasure List (I have 7 other list invites queued up behind it :p ). I have caught several Gingerbread mice during the event, including one while I was hunting with the Gingerbread trap, the Gingerbread base, and with Gingerbread cheese.

Perhaps I should arm those again, as I know that they can catch the elusive mouse ...

The treasure lists give me gold, and the tourneys move me towards the Golden Tournament Base. I'm only at 43 tokens, but half a year ago I doubted I would ever even get the Silver base - so there is progress! (I don't know whether I'll have the chance for more tourneys next week, but we'll see.)

So I need 78 more blocks. I'll get at least 55 this run and then I'll get 20 on the Snow Boulder. Shouldn't have a problem to get 3 to drop on the way. Right now I have exactly enough Boccocini to get me to the Snow Boulder, haha.

I finished up my Snow Fort late last night. Now I'm just there for tournaments and I'll probably go elsewhere when I'm not doing tournaments.

What's up with the surge of Treasurer mice by the way? This week my husband caught one, I saw someone on my team FTC one, and then I FTCed one last night. Has anyone else had one stop by?

Tomorrow is Feedbake FRYday on FBF. ;)) It's been quite a few years since I was able to watch this episode but I think I will be able to tomorrow.

I've got 350 blocks to go before I finish up my snow fort. So hopefully I will finish before the hunt ends. I'm hoping it'll go a bit quicker as I got the part built where the mice drop an extra piece of snowball completed.

I've FTC'd two Prize mice since the event started...both Treasurer, now that I think about it, lol!

I'm just a few hunts away from finishing my fort, and then I'm just here for tourneys and to lay in a supply of Boccocini for next year. Otherwise, I'll be in the Warpath hoping to get lucky with an Oasis Bead...it's over 6mil in the Marketplace!!! 8-o

I'm near the start of my fifth run through the event, and just finished upgrade number 8. I need about 275 more Snow Blocks to finish it completely. Thanks to the Advent Calendar, I only need the new Snowglobe collectible from the GWH collectibles.

I'm still enjoying the event, even though I've not been as active as in previous years. It's been a good event for me to set up my trap and be gone for a while, even with the number of runs it requires. I haven't even begun to figure out how to spend my Ice Coins at the end of it.
