The Winter 2008 Dualstream Day of Zeux was hosted by Insidious and started on Monday, December 29th, 2008, 5PM GMT (ending the same time the next day). The topics were "Water" and "Murder Mystery"; the judges were initially Tecki, Aussie Evil, SeventhShade and ScottVyper, but after receiving fierce criticism over the quality of his scores Aussie Evil withdrew them and Terryn filled his place. ScottVyper's scores were also hotly contested and declaimed, prompting him to Leave The Community, but the scores themselves remained. Despite a lack of build up to the event itself (a serious problem in the Summer 2008 Dualstream Day of Zeux), fifteen entries were received, most of them in a complete (if flawed) state; this is a marked improvement from the last competition. What might have been a 16th entry produced by Giel was posted on the DigitalMZX forums nearly one day after the competition ended; various difficulties were cited by Giel as prohibiting him from submitting his entry on time. His entry is not included for judging or in the DoZ archive.

This was also the first DoZ to have an official contingency measure for replacement judges, as well as stricter guidelines on score quality, largely at the urging of Wervyn. Terryn and Exophase served as backup judges, with Terryn stepping in to fulfill his role when Aussie Evil's scores were withdrawn. Initially Exophase had elected to replace Aussie, but later passed the job on in order to focus on MegaZeux development.
