January 25th, 2024 (feels weird to date 2024 - lack of practice I guess)
As we are entering the final sprint for Snowpocalypse 4, the leaderboard has seen some changes since my last journal entry; anchorm4n was on a break away and decisively took the lead, widening the gap between 1st and 2nd position, leading Pezman to prematurely drop the towel and admit his defeat. A little encouragement from the community and pole position leader forced Pezman back in the race, to at least finish his final lap ; a true spectacle of sportmanship! Despite having missed half the event, Caro & Alleria did some leaps and bounds and are now comfortably sitting in 6th & 7th position, respectively ; a commendable feat! VaBeZ appears out of reach and has secured himself a bronze medal while maintaining the exact same total he had had on the very first Snowpocalypse event: 327 ! With NebuchadnezzarHS defensively covering the 4th position and VaBeZ matching his previous tally, the doors are shut, preventing me from accessing the podium this year. Demonxz95 has not fired a shot since last year, leaving room for GoddammitDontShootMe & DragonDraena to close the head of the peloton. Scooter and Godsbane are lagging a tad behind, but I suspect they must have stacked cosmetic options. As for myself, I was overwhelmingly covered in snow earlier this month, leaving me to dominate the "Hit by Snowballs" ranking chart without using Goku's genkidama technique. Paradoxically, being the human equivalent to a piñata in this snowball fight made me feel both warm and icy-cold! .. and the fight ain't over yet, so you all better watch out!
I though Lubbin' was a high reward/high risk kind of strategy - it didn't bothered me too much - but I could tell it was gaining some traction and popularity, which may have been the issue .. oh well, farewell Landlubber!
Howdy everyone! I was delighted to see everyone's progress and new milestones ; some completionist of our community are truly dedicated, which I find highly motivating! Keep going, and keep updating us of your progress and achievements! As for myself, I am now entering the last few wins before completing my 1000 win portrait with Druid - now at 970! - and Druid is in a pretty good spot to quickly grind those last 30 wins. Not a huge fan of Aggro Treants, but Dragon Druid is pretty viable too, so at least I got that going. Once I do, I will then have completed all 9 of the original classes! I'm still a long way ahead with DK & DH, but have recently had lots of fun playing Highlander DH, hence completing the leveling to 60 for that class. Some neglectable wins sprinkled across the remaining classes, here and there, but only to finish weekly quest or stuff like that, as I'm really putting all my game time spread between Druid, Demon Hunter and Death Knight. So far so good, it hasn't felt too tedious or monotonous but before it does, I'll sprinkle some more play time with underappreciated archetypes !
Did I saw correctly that @Alleria - grand winner of the very first Snowpocalypse - just joined in the fight ?! Welcome back, and hope you are hungry for some snowballs !

Dec 29th 2023 Dear diary, I thought it would be wise to document the event as they unfold, before history even out its perils and gets written by the victor of the Snowball Fight! that is on-going. Despite NebuchadnezzarHS and myself's valiant effort at starting Snowpocalypse4 strong in terms of snowballs thrown, once anchorm4n got involved our best volleys were no match for his Rapid Fireand constant bombardments. VaBeZ also held strong his ground on the leaderboard for a bit, before Pezman shown us all the true meaning of being Snowed In. And in the meantime, notoriously fierce for his Hardpacked SnowballsCaro just woke from his slumber and Demonxz95 been quietly accumulating snowflakes, which I worry isn't to Build a Snowman ... The perfect storm : I predict a Blizzard will ensue
Well deserved @DragonDraena - here, have some more snow!

Make sense - thank you for the prompt enlightening
Captain, I'll need a hint - really don't get the 1 mana 12/24 reference - thanks in advance
I was genuinely amazed by the achievement ; this teen should be hell'a-proud!
And between you and me, Jayne can't even make it to level 5 ^^
