[Event][Great Challenge] The Snow Battle
The Snow BattleThe Snow Battle has begun! During the Snow Battle, your task is to catch UFOs in three daily sessions, with the number of UFOs based on the community's horseshoe collection progress. After you catch a UFO, decide to keep the gift (and lose points), send it to another player (and gain points), or spend Equus for a chance at a different UFO. The value of the UFO's content affects the points you win or lose. You can wait to decide but can't catch new UFOs until you choose. Win bonus points by using items earned from horse competitions, friends' help, or your participation in the Great Challenge. Accumulate points to rise in the rankings, unlocking gifts associated with your rank and those below. 🆕 Adjustments to the Battle🆕 We have optimized the chances of finding certain items, such as the Kairos Dial, Aging Points, or Artemis's Arrow, and reduced the frequency of less sought-after items. 🆕 The gift list has been enriched with new surprises, including the Hera Pack. 🆕 The points awarded for items when catching a UFO have been revised to better reflect their value and influence, adding a new dimension to your strategy. Have fun in the Snow Battle! Best regards, The Howrse Team

There should be a final 2 hour session left, this is because, unlike the lottery, you can get your prizes straight away.
 The reason we don't get an extra lottery draw is because the draws are at set times, so there isn't time to draw out the prizes before the event ends.

Couldn't be happier. spent 33k on trades. only once did i spend 5400 the rest i capped at 1800. and the 5400 was a mistake. and many times i didn't even do the 1800 trade.
my haul for the event: harmony pack timer 4 hops 4 tears 4 wands 4 ladybugs 3 heels 8 dials 2 lyre 50 APs 13 arrows 6 cardenala fortune 35000e 350 mash 2 saddle cloth at the start of this the only prizes i didn't want were the lyres and fortunes. as i've gotten more of some of the low stuff i started trading small amounts to try for something more useful. like i don't need more cardenala's or dials. so if i haven't hit my cap of 1800 i'm trading those now. which is one of the reasons my money for trades is so high. but to note i have spent ZERO to request bonuses which saved me an additional 57000. Best i could have gotten is the bottom 3 prizes for ranks. All which i don't need or use. So didn't even try. I kept my expectations low. Knew without spending a fortune i wasn't guaranteed to get great prizes. So i was happy with lesser prizes that are useful. Yes i could have spent more money to MAYBE get better prizes but i could have gotten worse. The only things totally useless to me were lyres and fortunes and with keeping my cap at 1800 for a trade i only got 3 of them. that's pretty good in my eyes

Very happy with my haul too. Only exchanged for low amounts,and decided I would only exchange lyres, equus and numnahs, but I did swap a few of the bird companions and mashed as I went on too.
Ended up with 2 harmony packs  3 tears 4 wands 7 ladybird 5 heels 15 lots of AP 11 arrows 4 dials 4 birds 16 CF 3 lots of mashes

I raced for the bottom, but missed a few draws due to life and work and sleep or lack thereof. ended up at -2075. Congrats to those who probably got more of the Heras (0), Harmonys (0) and timers and hops and reached the -3k mark.
I got a lot of e and ap which I traded and only manged to get lyres and fortunes or more e and saddle clothes.

Here's what I got! I was very frustrated in the beginning as I kept getting Arrows back to back, and trading gave Cardenalas, followed by aging points, which I traded again so you can imagine the rolling costs, but I'm glad it got better towards the end!
