So... if you done it at ten, you would be able to get another one at about twelve.

I heard about this over seven months ago. Finally got around to resting it en masse. Nice when you can get a whole college classroom to give it a go! I'll try testing it on the two hour scenario next. Volunteering encouraged! Please state time and refreshes, and NOW time since last tried. What you got also, and new screenies is also interesting!

EDIT: NST times postings

Okay, next 100 refresh trial:

Place: ADVENT CAL.

10:05:05 NST: (5 refreshes): A gust of icy cold wind blows past you, chilling you to the bone.

Refreshes 6-100: NOTHING.

Shame too, I'd reeeeally like to get the snow beast as a challenger out of this.

Blah... on my 56th refresh I got this:

NEW BATTLEDOME CHALLENGER!!!
Snow Beast will be waiting for you in the BATTLEDOME!!!
NO!!!!! Not the SNOW BEAST!

My guildmate has has very good luck with the Advent page and occasionally reports 1 random event every 15 minutes!

Here's the results from this afternoon for me. 11 refreshes and "SNOWBALL ATTACK! - Strong_Brad gets hit by a snowball from above and takes 3 damage!"

Reports so far: Limited by account, not by computer. Some people are getting it on thier main and on thier gallery. Q: Is searching for Random Events ok on spare accounts?

Also a claim of recieving an Ultimate Icy Negg, but no screeny as proof. *sigh

ALSO: specify if it is a WINTER random event. They are blue and found by the Oops! part of the AC unlike regulars that are yellow and found myt he top banner.
