Anyone else notice that the Zero Punctuation snow tower is taller than everything else on the calendar? Personally, I think Yahtzee is compensating for something.

Thanks, but the quote wasn't my own D: DH came up with it a bit after he made Rorsanta, my Christmas avatar here [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.79496?page=124#3748162] (name was my idea).

I'm still getting myself that cookie, though.

Ya, same here. I just noticed it for ENN (is in Australia) and I discovered the number 1 as well so I clicked it and fully watched the really great review and went back to check and it's covered over o.o

The ENN one (number 2) is fine though.

how exactly do we get credit for the 1st box? We didn't find out about the advent calander until today. :S
Click it now! Quickly! :)
I did, but the 1 still appears over the first box. The 2nd box I clicked had the number 2 removed and it's darkened a bit. Shouldn't the same have happened with box 1?
I honestly don't know, but I'll find out for you. What I heard form the tech department was that everyone got auto-credit for Box 1 since we rolled it out a day late, but I'll have to double check.

I have the same problem with the first box not darkening and the third box just leads to the error message page here.

My box number 3 won't open; the number is lit up but when I click it, it merely refreshes the page; any ideas?

I do believe it is not aligned correctly... I don't know if it is intensional... Maybe to stop us Brits from clicking it to quick :/

My theory is that it's meant to be a link to either the next Apocalypse Lane video or some other featured content for today that hasn't been posted yet on the site. In which case it should be fine later today. Just have a little patience...

None of my boxes will highlight no matter how mush I click them and number 3 isn't there.
There seams to be quite a lot of issues here. Hope it all works out, I think this is a good idea.
