Questions

How do events work?

On the dates shown, the site dresses up: the computer players put on costumes and there is a limited-time profile frame to win by playing. When the event ends everything goes back to normal.

Do I keep what I win?

Yes. Event frames are yours for good once you have earned them, even after the event is over.

Are the dates the same every year?

Yes — the same dates come round each year, and there may be new rewards each time.

Do I need an account?

Anyone can see the costumes and play. A free account is needed for wins to count towards rewards and the event leaderboards.
