About the same time that Christmas decorations get taken down.

In other words, there are 12 days to Christmas so presumably when those 12 days are over the Christmas present reclaim will be removed.

Actually on some maps like Syrtis, its great to have all your reclaim on high visibility, so I don't have to facehug the ground to see if I have missed anything.

Other maps its very annoying though and I can't tell the difference between small and large rocks xD

Yes, at first I found the presents very useful because they are easier to see, but then I played on a map with daroza stones. I thought nice I have some small reclaim, and suddenly I was overflowing tons of mass xD These presents did show that setons actually has stones on the air spot O_O

I was thinking about leaving them in for 3639 -- but if people don't want it I'm all for removing them :)

... Would just like to play a game with them before this happens ;)

I think this is a good discussion on reclaim visibility. A large problem for me personally is that reclaim isn't that visible on certain color maps. Maybe we can increase the visibility or make that an option, without being obnoxious.
