What Christmas has taught me:

[Former-GM-Glyph]

@Ptah: It's a once per account quest with a unique item at the end.

@Bee: We aren't going to offer every Christmas Item every time we make a Christmas Event, sometimes you just have to wait until the next one, or buy it off someone.

And as for the Charity NPC, we don't expect it to rise in only a few days, and the higher rewards will certainly justify the amount of effort and zeny everyone puts in.

With the Fairy Auction, that's honestly how it works. We put up items and services for bid and whoever bids the most gets the item. If it means some people don't get the item they want that month because someone else wanted it more then okay. Everyone needs to go into the Auction with the mindset of "I want this item but so do others and they might have more zeny than me." or they're just going to get their hopes dashed when someone with more zeny beats them to the punch.

Now if you'll excuse me, I need a drink, and Mr Claus seems like a great guy to get shots with.
