    I actually don't really know how to get it.
    Some people say you need all the items from the advent calender, is that true, cuz I read some of the books to my pet :/

    Anyways..any info is great X_x

    There isn't an official guaranteed method yet, however most believe it is obtained by going to the advent calendar everyday. That would be your best bet if you wish to obtain it, but others manage to get the theme without going everyday. Hmmm, who knows; just another mystery(sort of like the vexed av...people have it but don't know the actual way of getting it).

    There are tons of theories, such as that one. Some say you need to collect and keep the prizes everyday. Some say you have to do it around the same time everyday.

    Here is a link to the statistics of the Winter Sidebar: http://www.neo pets.com/~Arid

    Uhg..if you needa COLLECT items everyday..then i'm screwed..because I believe it was Sunday? That gave away the "freaky factory" items, well I collected it while it wasn't working, so I got no items. I went back when they were fixed and they already said I collected it.

    @ Mooie, I did the same thing on the glitch day, but today I logged on and had those items in my inventory, so you should probably get them sometime too.

    And I saw that someone said something about the vexed avatar.... It's my favorite one and I have obtained it on four different accounts. Each and every time it was by defeating Master Vex in Cellblock to get the gold trophy, I forget what round it was, like the 12th or 13th.

    It can't be that. There is a vexed project where people are at round 50+ and don't have it.

    Isn't there a program that you can use that unlocks all the sidebars for you?

    There is a gm script that gives you all the sidebars, but just like faux fur, it isn't the official real deal. But it does the job if you want something different to look at.

    I got the sidebar a few years ago and I only collected 6-7x on that account when I got it.

    It is still semi-random (seemingly) and many people on many forums have been trying to find a solution.

    On -insert forum here- there were PAGES on one thread of data collected by people who 1) collected all items and DID get it, 2) people who collected all items and did NOT get it, and 3) people who did NOT collect all items and DID get it. No real pattern was found =/
