until it reached its maximum size at which time <strong>all</strong> raffle entrants receive a reward when the festival concluds in each city. Rewards are scaled to a percentage of total participants for each tree size below the maximum tree size.</li>
<li>Values were calculated on the 'banked' value of the BoD, not the full value. ie 2% of the full value for small orders, 20% for large orders. Therefore several low level large BoDs gave more value than higher level small BoDs</li>
<li>Players claim their rewards by double clicking on the large gift bag near the elf.
