30 Minutes and Not a Cherry.

I'll consider a new name, but without cheating it can't be changed before Jan.5. Which is conveniently the end of Winterbash.

user259867

9:38 AM

I mean who cares about the year ending... the Bash ending is more important.

Infinite Happiness

I can understand that asking an easy question which anyone can answer in 30 minutes is incompatible. But why is not-a-cherry incompatible with your world view?

Jan Dvorak

Wait, Bash is going to end?

@Behaviour I'm glad about the prior, sad about the latter

So, tagging wrong tag was an issue ?

But it's understandable since it can be easily confirmed on Winter Bash page itself, that there is no hohohohohoho hat

and people thought "no effort"

TheLittleNaruto

Yes, But I mentioned that. Also my question was , why it's not this year as well.
