Well, I've uncovered a bit of info actually...
Let's start off with this...
http://www.roblox.com/Lobby-place?id=143261111
If you can sort through the comments ALL THE WAY TO 1/23/2014 (That's yesterday from when I posted this!) You will see a post by kryptonikofficial, the game guy who works with Roblox and got his OWN HAT JUST FOR HIM.
"It will opened on friday"...
Today's Friday, so that's already a no for today, and the event was SUPPOSED to open before the end of the month, right?
So there you have it, Robl-
WAIT! I'M NOT DONE!
Later, this was posted. http://www.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=123948822
One of the later posts? Alexrocks911, the game guy who MADE ONE OF THE WINTER GAMES! http://www.roblox.com/Roblox-Snowball-Fight-place?id=143262848
See it in the corner? Yeah, he submitted that game and it got approved, so later it seems he received a message, and he posted it here.
Let's first say the first bit of info.
The thread was originally about the games starting on the 25th, which chief denied, which also crosses out today even further.
Now, let's combine that info with what alex said.
FROM ALEX: He IS being serious
"Sorcus and the Games team are in the final stages of putting together the Winter Games universe (your creations hooked into the Winter Lodge portal + leaderboards and more). If we can, we'll provide a sneak preview for you early next week. We're hoping to publish the event page (similar to the Halloween event page) mid-week next week and then go live with events before the weekend."
So this week is the 19th-25th. Which means the REST OF JANUARY'S LAST WEEK, not including days from February, is the 26th-31st.
Mid next week is Wednesday, and then it notes that it will go live before the weekend, which means it isn't Wednesday, but after that and before the weekend.
There is only two days left in the week, Thursday and Friday.
So EVEN IF WE DENY WHAT KRYPTO SAID, it's either the 30th or the 31st.
But if we take what he says to be true...
The Winter Games are opening 1/31/2014. One week from today. |

@Sherknock,
Yes, next Friday according to the info. All we need now is someone like chief posting that it's correct and the date is pretty much a set in stone PLAN (Don't bug them, we're only human.) |

@Shedow,
There's lots more research I've done, this is just a bit of it.
@Hawks,
Please link to the 20 people which posted this exact thing. Until then, you are wrong and made out of slate and mold and plates and are cold. |

I would have posted the whole mail chief sent me but I'm keeping it a secret until you find out about it on the blog in a few days |

@Alex,
While this is just a theory, thank you for confirming that the mail is indeed legit. Would you mind messaging me the rest once the blog is out for future theories like this? |

| Well the secret part is kind-of wintergames related and community-related. It will be on the blog before February 8. (date of something) |

Well either way, thanks for the update. Just a couple more questions...
1.Did Roblox do anything special for you other than just offer the game as an event? This is one of the few events to mainly use user created places, this and two Thanksgiving events, along with the Siege of Quebec
2.Could you provide any info on the Snowball fight? How it is played, gameplay, weapons, tips? |

1. Well Chiefjustus was accepting entries on RbxDev. They did offer something special but that would give too much info about something secret. THey offered it to all of the game creators that had the place used.
2. It'll be easy to understand when you get in the game. Good luck |

| I meant to ask if he actually made a game for it, but I didn't think before I typed. I knew he was a developer, I just didn't know he was that GOOD of a developer to actually be approved of his game for a ROBLOX event. |

@c0ns
Yes, it all started with Clonetrooper1019 talking with Sorcus, offereing to make a game event for Christmas, he posted that on another forum (NOT HERE, IRONNOOB) and a flood of "teams" started making games, eventually Clone quit and Team Rudimentary submitted what we all know as the Siege of Quebec, and the rest of the games were submitted helping fuel the idea for TWG, anyone could submit a game, but only the best builders really knew about this little "contest" where the prize is your game being part of Roblox's event. |

In the BLOXcast... they said it will release in 10 or 11 days. And according to my calculations, it will be released next Wednesday, or next Thursday.
