My alt just got a visit from time the healer but no snowbound. I am starting to freak out as well.
Don't freak out! I actually thought it would start Friday, but now, like Travers, I am going with Day 7 as the start of the event too. It is The Number after all, so hope all shall be well. Plus, it coincides with certain advent calendar shenanigans!
By the way, I am really liking the the way the calendar is set up, especially the good night choice! I loved seeing the source stuff too with the easter egg in there. A handy reddit thread will catch anyone up to speed with that too. Even though it's been only 4 days in, I really like what has been revealed thus far. My first Christmas in the Neath is going swimmingly, looking forward to the day we may get certain meticulous equipment!  Nice work Failbetter!

I confess that I'm getting nervous about how long it's taking for the "Snowbound" portion of Sackmas to begin. My unsubstantiated theory is that snow will come on every Monday in December for everyone regardless of their Time, the Healer. That will lead to everyone getting four pails from Snowbound. We'll just have to wait and see!
That would stink for monday people, though. The extra free evenings are a rare treasure- to lose them because it's on their TTH day would be quite irksome. At least, if it's capped at 5 like i remember it being.

I will accept all social actions that do not consume free evenings- and i will provide patronage to anyone who requests it, though it will be split between all requesters.

I'm also a bit concerned about the lack of snow, it was my favorite part of December in the neath to get both characters TtH without a single flake has me worried. Hopefully whatever is happening back at Failbetter to cause the change will be worth it, they've done fairly well by the game over the years so I expect they've got good reason for the delay

Just my kind of bucket! Not the usual type of cat bucket I collect, I usually cast my liquid cats into buckets rather than fill buckets with them.

likely a precuation against password-guessing. That is a thing that happens in some games, you know.

Looking at the page source again, I noticed some Javascript that appears to cause a snowfall effect starting on the 6th, which increases in intensity as time passes. Maybe snowbound will come tomorrow then.

Has anyone tried opening a door for the first time after the day for it has passed? I'm going to be traveling and wondering how vigilant I need to be.

@an ocelot: someone I know just started the game, and all the doors worked except the first. No Christmas cards, worse luck. But he is rather well-dressed for a complete noob. So Gonen's left hand is safe.

That's a difficult one, I'm really not sure if i want to open today's door. I have Candles that I don't want to lose but on the other hand maybe I could send it on to someone who wants it [spoiler] or a Scuttering Squad [/spoiler] and doesn't mind the gamble.

Sorry RL means I am not a very active player at the moment. No social actions unless you are prepared to wait and definitely no sparring or other mult-action things.
No Calling Cards or boxed cats please. Will take dupes on the affluent photographers. Other social invitations welcome. Parabolan Kittens usually available, send me an in-game social action saying you want one and I will get one to you as soon as possible.

Could someone-one with past experiences of Rats of Glory summarise the mechanics please? I looked on Wiki but it's not entirely clear.
How much do you stand to lose? Can it activate repeatedly or only once? If repeatedly then indefinitely?
What are the mechanics of activation? Is it a living story? Or some sort of automatic Must storylet with some randomiser quality?
