Even though we are far from land, I invite you to join me in celebrating the Christmas spirit.
I have given you and your fellow passengers a Christmas tree in your profile. Even more exciting, the cargo hold is full
of fun and exotic presents for those who have been behaving well this year. Have you been good? Take the Good or Bad Test
here!
Some say the best thing with X-mas is getting presents. I think its much more fun to spread joy. Why not make someone you
like happy by showing them that you care? And besides, good things come to those that give, as my mother always says.. ;-)
The Christmas tree:
How do you make your tree the coolest on the chat? As you give presents to others, more and
more decorations are made available to you so that you can personalize your tree. Use the tree to show how you feel, who you
are and how you think the perfect Christmas Tree looks like. This is a perfect way of showing that you are a warm and generous
person, and having your own styled Christmas tree at the same time!
The Gifts:
During the year, the Ship’s Rat, TechnoChic and the Captain has collected gifts that are now
stored in the cargo hold. They have made sure that there are gifts for every taste, purpose and wallet size. Each gift has
a special meaning for the crew, and they will also mean something special to the one that receives it. Click here to view
all the gifts!
Giving Gifts
To give a gift to a chatter, simply enter the chatter’s profile and click “View Tree
and Gifts” and then “Give a Gift”. All gifts are displayed with a short description, sorted in the three
categories Ship’s Rat, TechnoChic and Captain. Choose the gift you want to send and click “Give”.
Follow the instructions and send a SMS with the requested content to the specified number.
You will immediately receive a reply SMS containing a code. Enter this code into the input field and click okay. The gift
is then given.
You can only use the received code once.
If you do not receive a code, or if you receive an SMS
with an error message, you have not been charged for the gift.
You are only charged if the gift is actually delivered and visible in the chatter’s profile!
When Christmas is over…..
When Christmas is over and the New Year begins, you will still keep all of your
presents. As a first present, the Captain has given you a sea chest where you can keep all your gifts. Your personal sea chest
will be kept in your profile letting you enjoy your presents and remember who was generous to you during the holiday season.
FAQ:
Can I keep my gifts?
Of course you can keep your gifts! You don’t throw away your gifts at home, do you?
When
Christmas is over, all gifts are put in the sea chest given to you by the Captain. During the Christmas campaign, you can
not exchange or give the gifts you received to someone else. The gifts you receive are yours!
What is the difference between the Ship’s Rat, TechnoChic’s and Captain’s gifts?
The gifts
are chosen by the different crew members and represent different price categories and types of presents. All gifts are nice,
but the fanciest presents are chosen by the Captain and are large, more exclusive and animated.
How do i know that my gift was recived?
You can look at the recipient’s christmas tree page to determine
whether or not the give was successfully given. If an error occurred during payment, you will automatically be notified hereof
by SMS, and will not be charged for the gift.
Most often in such cases, the user has entered the wrong code.
You
will immediately after the transaction be able to see the gift in the users profile, just reload the page!
Can I receive the same gift twice?
Just as in real life, your friends and family might give you the same gifts.
We try to prevent this from happening by showing which gifts a user already has, but hey, what is the harm in having many
of the same gifts? ;-)
Why can’t I change the appearance and decorations on my Christmas tree?
Sure you can change the appearance
on your Christmas Tree! From the start, there are some decorations available to everyone. As you give gifts to other chatters,
more decorations are made available, letting you design your own cool tree. The more you give, the more you can decorate and
personalize your tree! If people see that you are generous, perhaps they will send a gift your way in hope for one in return…
How many gifts can I send per day?
We must limit the amount of gifts you may send to 50 a day. Leave some for
the other chatters as well! ;-)
