It's just a bit more than six months until Christmas. The Firemonkeys seem to know some players like to start decorating early :D

Probably because the Christmas quest that I only missed because my game had a lag at the very end has started up again.

Last Dec. I achieved all the prizes except the template house at the end.(Fell asleep) So, I thought I wouldn’t have more than the last day of tasks to finish this rerun. But, it wants me to complete the full 12 days run! I did today’s tasks and achieved the round mirror again. No mirror appeared in inventory though. What gives? I thought the game restarts at the point where a person finished last time? Any ideas because I really don’t want to totally redo the whole thing.

Sadly, yes, you will have to redo all the days. The daily quests (for whatever stupid reason) are not like other events which do pick up where you left off.

I missed the final day in a Christmas quest two years ago when a relative was hospitalized and had to redo the whole thing when it repeated. I did it as I really wanted the final prize. It's up to you if Santa's farmhouse is worth it to you. I love it, so personally, I'd do it over.

Thank you, SKatF. I needed someone’s experience in this. I was so disappointed last Dec. when I missed out on Santa’s farmhouse so I will go thru it all again as well as the SimChase event. Yikes, I’m going to be busy. :o

If you notice, all the prizes are already checked off in the menu, so you probably have already used the mirror somewhere.
