"Yeti"??   Is that another one of your clues walrus? i mean you could of just said Yet....

wikipedia had this on yeti:

""The Yeti, sometimes referred to as the Abominable Snowman, is a humanoid cryptid associated with the Himalaya. The names Yeti or Meh-Teh are commonly used by people indigenous to the Himalaya [1], and are part of their history and mythology.""

So are we expecting abonible snowmen , that we can turn into when they bite us lol

Good thing My few offers of sushi to Poseidon didn't come to waste. Glad you're feeling better walrus.

Rarebit totally stole my idea of turning the Complete Corrupted into Snow Corrupted. ;) I kid, I kid. Truth is, we'll never know who came up with the idea first.... >_> <_< -_- O_O o_o ._. *poof*

Complete Corruptors turned into giant ice monsters, perhaps? I liiiike.

Yeti ? Re-use ? Maybe a Complete Corructor made of snow and who look like a Yeti...

Edit : Heh Symm got the idea just before me ^^

"Typos" for the win. SMILEY

P.S. If SOE cares so much about the children, then how come they aren't listed as one of the corporate sponsors at the bottom of the Child's Play site? SMILEY

Back when the corrupted first appeared I had a visual bug that made one look like a giant doughboy.  They probably made it look a bit better than that, but I think that's what it'll be.
#36300109764 12/01/2006 21:29:23 Re:The Other Side of the Looking Glass - Friday, December 1, 2006
This should be pretty cool. I missed the Complete Corrupted part of that event, so this'll be new to me. SMILEY
#36300109769 12/01/2006 21:53:30 Re:The Other Side of the Looking Glass - Friday, December 1, 2006
Looking forward to the big surprise!  Is it Wednesday yeti?

Nice note about Child's Play. It's definitely a worthwhile cause to donate to, and proves that we're not as bad as a certain lawyer says we are.
#36300110067 12/02/2006 10:36:01 The Other Side of the Looking Glass - Friday, December 1, 2006
Aye, gamer charity ftw!

And Yetis eh? This could get interesting...
#36300110070 12/02/2006 10:39:28 Re:The Other Side of the Looking Glass - Friday, December 1, 2006

Yeti? hmm...better not be a snow corrupter...that'd be awful. I'd prefer Christmas to about snow ball fights and fun frolicks (not killing npc spawns ad nasuem, no matter what they are)

And yes, ChildsPlay is a worthy cause and we should all do something (whether small or large).  Not to "prove" anything to anyone, simply to help others who don't have the affluence or advantages that most of us have.

Agreed.

Although I have the feeling we're going to throw snowballs at Yeti's to catch snowflakes so we can earn the black gloves.

Well as long as the, hopefully very few, Yetis are only found in certain, appropriate, areas then i don't think it should interfere with the fun nature of the event at all.

/brainstorm

Maybe somehow (dont ask me how) they could only come out when the weather cycle is on snow?

That'd be cool.

/endbrainstorm.

HUGE bravo to the Child's Play plug.  Is there anyway to get some advertising for it in game perhaps, on billboards or whatever? 

Hopefully those that can contribute will contribute.  Everyone always says the Christmas season is about giving, but to be more specific I would say it's about giving to children. 

#36300110499 12/03/2006 02:13:36 Re:The Other Side of the Looking Glass - Friday, December 1, 2006

I've heard the word "Yeti" enough to last me a lifetime...

Start calling it "Snow Corrupted" or "Snorrupted" or "Corrupnow" Or maybe even just "SC"

Anything but yeti...

Well since I was moving last year around this time I completely missed the entire Holiday Event 2005/2006 - so I am definitely looking forward to it - no matter if there will be Yetis or not SMILEY
#36300110528 12/03/2006 03:43:12 Re:The Other Side of the Looking Glass - Friday, December 1, 2006
Is this what a Yeti looks like?


#36300111388 12/04/2006 07:25:51 Re:The Other Side of the Looking Glass - Friday, December 1, 2006

My guess, the perfect snowflake that you need to get the new holiday clothing.  And, as has been suggested, perhaps the snowflake is a luggable... go slay the yeti and then lug the flake all the way to a vendor to trade it in.

Because SOE rarely ever publicizes charitable donations it makes. No, I'm not kidding. Yes, we've made a lot of contributions that I know of--who knows how many I don't.

Just had an idea..would it be possible to change some stun/slow/root/code effect abilities to give them a winter icy look?
It just some visual effects, would look cool during this event
