I have visited every spot, I have not found them.
I live in the EST time zone. Means you are +5 hours from me.
Which means it's technically Sunday 12:30am where you are located.
I have not found one snowman since this was presented. Where may I find them?
I'm on YouTube - Search me at Littlejayberry . Or don't. Up to you.

I did 3 of these events. Every single one of them was packed with maxed combat players who basically one hit these as soon as they spawn, leaving lower leveled players no chance of getting a kill. The tagging system makes it even worse as the person with the lowest ping gets the drop.

Will not participate anymore.

Issues with this event: Super LAG! Not enough snowmen to the amount of players in the area. From what ive seen it's only like 20 mins between when they start spawning so theres really not enough time. Ive done it a number of times now and have only recieved 1 drop which was a D-Battle axe, which im not complaining about the drops rather the lack of opportunity to recieve anything. Overall I think this even could have been better considering the year is almost at an end.

I'm sick of hearing about people complaining about 'high level' people hogging all the kills. Not only are drops dependent on tagging, thus the best internet connection rules all, but this is supposedly a 'holiday event' that is supposed to be enjoyed by all members.

Don't hate on the individual players (although those with cannons just add to the lag and accomplish nothing worthwhile), but take it out on Jagex who facilitated this _re-skin_ of the previously flawed zombie monkeys. Their laziness and lack of foresight has ruined it for everyone, not just low levels.

This event should have been more well planned out, such as no multi combat! I can hit someone and get them almost to half life then someone will just come in and melee 2 shot with a combo of their cannon and i cant even get a Mob that i tagged first and did what seemed like most of the damage at or over50% I have seen alot of people exploiting this and most of them seem to get more then 2 dragon drops per event. Might I add none of them even use a ROW when i use mine so far this entire event 1 Dlong sword in over 12 events... all in all kinda worthless when if u bother to try to set up a cannon you lose money just in ammo alone... Please figure our some way to make up for this huge imbalance in the aspect of selfish players wanting all the loot not even letting people get 1 mob for themselves, otherwise decent event if it was balanced!

I don't care who has a higher cb lvl, but the unfair advantage is the one with the cannon! Just really not fair being that the player isn't really doing the work. Snowmen should be immune to the cannonballs! These players are killing all of the snowmen. But knowing Jagex, nothing will be done about it. :(

Lol i dont even know why people are moaning, its just a winter weekend event. You dont need to participate. Its just 1st successful hit and its yours. It is really fun when you get something.

I like this event though it needed more snowmen. :/

Mod Lods event was..... bad.
