Angry Birds Seasons: Christmas 3 Star Walkthrough Level 1-24

One strategy for Season’s Greedings level 1-24 is to fire the White bird straight ahead, bombing the left side of the first structure and ricocheting the bird through the balloon. All pigs on the left side should pop, and the TNT should fall onto the present below. Use the next Yellow bird or two to pop the remaining pigs on the right side. The score in the video is 58,640.

Note: The video below shows the Santa Hat glitch. This glitch has since been fixed and thus is no longer possible. The trigger was the Santa Hat atop the small pig on the left. To see which levels have the glitch, we have tagged them.

The glitch works no more but the old results haven’t been erased, were they? This leaves the ranking table biased and leaves the non-glitchers virtually without any chance to pick the top notch.

Yeah, you basically have two thresholds. A bummer I know, but it happens.

When it comes to the “Off Avg By” caption (one of most important) I would suggest to consider the following:
1. Differentiate glitch scores from non-glitch if possible (e.g. by entry date)
2. Use median instead
3. Add plus differenced too (since it is important by what margin you exceed the average)
4. Make it possible to set different threshold than average/median. For best players challenge would be to be in 10th percentile or so.

Yes – I’m pretty sure it’s the only way to do it. Just follow the video above and pray. By the way, I’ve noticed that as more people play and post their scores, the average keeps going down. Eventually, your score and the average will pass each other. Good luck!

I have a top score of 112,030 on this level, but I think it counts as one of the glitch scores. One bird. Everything wiped out when bird hat exploded.

I am trying to accomplish the Score Addict for Season Greedings which is 2,080,000. My question is: Can this be accomplished without the hat glitch? If so, I will keep trying. If not, I think I will have to give up. Thanks to someone who can answer my question.

Certainly can be done without the glitch. Refer to the leaderboards and try to beat the averages on each level.

By Pattya634

I added up the average scores for Seasons Greedings , and the total on 11/13/2011 was 2,067,286 – almost 13,000 points below the 2,080,000 needed for the score addict. I am even below that average score, so I think it is time to realize that I may not be able to accomplish my goal for score addict on Seasons Greedings and Trick or Treat. I was able to do it for the rest of Seasons though. Love the game and love the help for getting through the games. Thanks so very much!

It is still doable. Comparing your score to the average shows which levels have the most room for improvement.

I remembered your comment from when I was myself trying to get the score addict on Seasons Greedings without the santa hat glitch. I just wanted to tell you that even if it far less easier (I suppose) it is still totally doable, I finally got it yesterday. I’m far below the average in the levels with the glitch but the other levels leave room for improvement ! Check my leaderboard if you want to have an idea of the possible scores :) Good luck

I’m over by 45k without any glitches and still levels to improve. The only levels the glitches are very effective are 1-24, 1-20, 1-7. Due to some graphical studies, I calculated that the mean without glitch for 1-20 is around 49k, 62k for 1-24 and 73k for 1-7. This should be your goal. Every other average score is reachable without santa’s hat glitch.

I appreciate your graphical studies. While I made above average (barely) on 7 and 20, I gave up on 24 when a one birder wouldn’t give you average. It’s reassuring to know 62000 is reasonable. Thank you.

Not sure if this will help. I have been working hard on this one. One bird strategy, aim the bird a little higher than flat, the goal is to be level with the horizontal roof part of the “house” right in front of the “chimney” when you drop the egg. If you time it right a glass block flies up to tap the TNT while your bird pops the ballon. When you do it the TNT kills the right two pigs and some extra blocks. Averaging 65-66k this way and as high as 69680. Still all about luck but a little more of an aim point.

Thanks @christophermorrison5 – I started playing after the glitch was fixed, and this was the only level I was really having trouble getting above average on. To others – on the iPhone you probably need a little more angle (about 30 degrees), but you can routinely get in the mid 60’s with two birds and high 60’s to low 70’s with one bird if the debris flies right.

Thank you Moe @christophermorrison5 for posting your Alternate Strategy. Worked great and was finally able to get above average with a non-glitch strategy. Gained 13k+ in points with the one-bird solution. Found that if the WB’s body flies straight up instead of to the right, when it comes down it can aid in destroying the pigs in the hollow wooden boxes on the right.

Details for Nook Color:

High scoring method. Zoom all of the way in. Pull the hen down until the top of her lower beak lines up around the top of the slingshot fork’s “crotch”. There is also a distinct change in background color from blue to blue-green if you look closely. Release white hen from this point and drop egg as close to the “chimney” as you can.

Then you should curse, swear, yell at the top of your lungs, etc., because it didn’t work. No problem, try again. Still no luck? Keep going, and going, and going, and going….

Don’t worry, I didn’t get it yet either. BUT, I did increase my score by almost 1,000 points with a two-birder! Hopefully I remember to come back and comment on my comment when I DO achieve the 1 bird solution.

@kathy you can see the glitch in the second video, every thing o. The right side disintegrated but only yielding 48k. And I looked through and saw fronzdevil complaining couldn’t get past 70, then later cheering the glitch.
On other levels the glitch has added some bias, but on this one it seems like crazy high scores were possible. I wouldn’t mind a bit if the entire leaderboard was scrubbed and everyone had to do this one over, maybe a special challenge event. @sweetp maybe just a challenge to see what is realistic and wipe everything above and maybe grant A puppy or two to top scorers for trying.
