Crimbo is coming ... Crimbo is coming! (on KoL)

It's the most.... wonderful time... of the (KoL) year!

Yes, It's the Christmas / Crimbo season in Kingdom of Loathing, and this year, the opponents are the evil Penguin Mafia, and the poor, mutated elves.

Here are a couple of hints for you to get started:

In your KoL Advent calendar (in your campground) there is an offhand item on punch #8 (I think) called 'The Spirit of Crimbo. Go get it, equip it and cast it as a Combat spell on the Elves in the Atomic Crimbo Toy Factory. You'll get some cool drops that will give you a new familiar and a new outfit (and tattoo!)

You should acquire Fat Stacks of Cash and use them against the Penguin Mafia at least three times per day. You'll get Crates with good stuff in 'em!

Finally, there is a Meta-Crimbo activity going on, which pits all the kills of Penguins vs. all the kills of the Elves. TPTB will make something special for the team that wins. Currently the stats look like this:

Elves Defeated:	1,127,432
Elves Cured:	533,865
Penguins Defeated:	1,118,728
Penguins Bribed:	145,291

I'll post more as we learn more!
