Although Snowman Survival is related to Christmas because Christmas is the time people build snowmen, I think it should end when the snow disappears, or when winter ends March 22nd. 40 days is not really the amount of time between snow coming and snow melting, and snowman survival should be that length between snow coming and melting.

You don't have a choice in when this takes place.
It's up to the management team.

Which is why he's suggesting it to be changed.


Although your reasoning isn't totally flawed, keep in mind that it's a Christmas game, and not necessarily a winter seasonal game. Sure, it would only appear during the winter, but that's due to Christmas being in that time.
To be honest, using your reasoning, I could say that snowmen survival should never be brought back as it never snows here.
Anyways, that aside, it's a phenomenal game. I couldn't agree more that it needs to be brought back, but it does need some "reskinning" to make it not directly Christmas based. Arcade is the perfect spot for this game.

It might be a good idea to give snowman survival a different texture and name, because it would be completely absurd to have snowman survival with the texture it has now all year round. If it got another texture, it might make sense, while still being fun.

I want it year-round, but probably retextured so its appropriate to every season, not just winter.
May I suggest a retexture to the game? As opposed to building snowmen are there any other ideas for how the game could look?
Maybe a texture like creepers throwing TNT at players might work. Especially because when creepers blow up, they die. At the end of the game, the creepers would blow up like they would anywhere else.

Depends in what country you live. People at the ecuator mostly don't even experience snow. It's a very inaccurate way of deciding when a temporary christmas game should be added/removed.

I think it are good time lenghts as they are now for temporary games.

You don't have the choice whether the glass for oriental is changed
That argument is completely redundant since the point of suggestions are to suggest a change, addition, or removal

You can suggest that the glass for oriental is changed
But that doesn't mean you have the choice over whether It does or not

Same applies here
They don't have control over whether it is changed or not but they can suggest it

I think by time when snow is out they more just mean winter
Which (if you ignore time zones) is the same time all around the world

Well, I'm not just suggesting it begins when snow comes and ends when snow melts. I'm also suggesting it could be the beginning of winter to end of winter. Notice how no one (including me) voted in the poll for whenever the snow on the ground melts.

Sure. Due to the amount of wanting of the game to make a return and to add it, it has a high chance of being re-added!

@Tacosbefriends liked it instantly :D, he adored it.

I loved Snowman Survival, and to be honest, I think it will be brought back under a different name and different maps.
If not, we should keep in mind that it was a seasonally game and it will likely come back next year.

However, If I take a look at Line Dash, which used to be a Christmas Game too, it has been abandoned and not really a lot of players play it, I think the same would happen with Snowman Survival.

In the end, I do think it will be brought back, but I don't encourage it.

What if you're in Australia? It's summer there during Christmas. No snow.

EDIT: or anywhere in the southern hemisphere.

Sure, people in the southern hemisphere don't experience snow during Christmas, but that didn't stop Cubecraft's management team from adding Snowman Survival anyway. The management team still added this winter game despite the fact that some people don't experience snow. This means that if they made Snowman Survival go from the beginning of winter to the end of winter, it wouldn't really make a change as to snow coming in the northern or southern hemisphere.

This means, if the management team made a Christmas game relate to winter, then making Snowman Survival go from the beginning of winter to the end of winter wouldn't really make a change. Because if the management team made it that instead, it would still be related to winter whether it was as it is now or from the beginning of winter to the end of winter. So if they changed it, that would mean that it's still a winter game in the Northern Hemisphere, and although it would be summer in the Southern Hemisphere when this happened, it wouldn't really make a change.

For my first suggestion upon returning, should it be cosmetic-related, Skyblock related, QoL-related, or a more different/unique one?
P.S. I have a ginormous amount of ideas for all 4 options
Maybe a bit of a dumb question, but do chat prefixes exist on Cubecraft Java like they do on Bedrock?
