Football Fever Final - Strategy

Football Fever Final
8 July 2016 - 10 July 2016​

No crops. No drops. No milling.
Just donate 17500 Value of regular & tropical crops to make one football.
Then play the mini game.

Rewards which can be got several times are Keppy-Uppy Champ & XL Toolbox. All other rewards can be got only once.

 

All the rewards require 350 starcoins, which means 8600 carnations.
That's just 4 harvests with CAC.

I'm beginning to wonder if they want our markets to be scarce so they have a reason to merge them.

 

Just crops or fruit? And is the Keepy Uppy Champ the same as Keepy Uppy from the Football event? It's the only one I'm missing!

I really hope Baha fruit can be included - I have loads on all farms!

Now this is a nice event!

Escalonilla: Or maybe so that HH will be a little more interesting/competitive/difficult (if that's possible!)?

 

No tree fruits, Illy. Only crops.

I too have the same thoughts about HH.

 

Now my crops?? ummm when do we get to grow them? Ahhh I see it's still squeeeze the little guys. Got it now.

​

 

Another barn drainer to skip with my farm prepping for HH

 

We never had such an Easy Mini Event for Very Long Time. It is Repeat of Football Event using the Same Mini Game of Passing the Ball

The only thing you need is to donate 17500 CC / Exchange Value of Any Main Farm or Tropical Crops ONLY !!!

I have plenty of these since i am Crop Farmer lol.

This Event is Ideal for those who are Short on Stars as you can get 80 Stars from This Event. Also can get as Many XL Toolboxes too for those Short on Woods,Bricks or Roof Tiles that are needed to Upgrade Arboretum, Manufactory or Menagerie !!

We can win Nublon Snails During Pass of Football during Mini Game....But we can Win Woods, Bricks or Roof Tiles during Mini Game aswell as Getting XL Tool Boxes.

 

I have plenty of carnations in my barn (just one example) let alone Baha crops to use for this event. It's great that we don't have to be interrupted trying to get Nublons!!

 

I'm missing something here.
Easy Does this not mean for the newbies? Let the new guys get the feets wet? to be able to finish the thing and go back to your regular scheduled program?

keltic says fine, we gots the island goods, ming will hope for the stars. Just opened Toucan, got a way to go.
Sorry newbies still none for you on the way to the island.

​

 

ming, they could donate 17,,500 lettuce...or wheat, carrots, sugarcane. I would think they should have some of that in their barns.

 

True, but I did math.....wait that may be the issue.

 

julie ! What an idea ! Thanks. Sure I am going to follow it. Grow lettuce & sugarcane with the scarecrow cloud row & CAC activated. Grow and make football and play.


I am not using supergrows, SSGs and starting only after the event starts. broke, do I qualify for your competition ? Remember the one you announced several months before ?

 

To maintain barn value, the most efficient donation is to use the lowest market value to EV.

All crops have an EV. One will find if one donates some of the lower level crops that the Market to EV is very high (on this market, lettuce is over 10 times its market Value to EV rate). Not good for an advanced level player.

BP knows that higher level players will tend to donate their stocks of roses and carnations.

A player is limited to the crops they can access by their level. Generally, the lower the level crop, the higher the market to EV ratio.

How in the world can I dump 1.1 M roses and 3.1 K carnations? No way, barns have too much. I'll wait until after the drill sale or release. Farmers will want to upgrade their boxes. I'll be able to dump them at a lower rate than tree fruit then and at a greater profit. I'll hold.

I'll have to look for a loan until then

 

i need 2nd, 3rd, 4th opinion, n so on.. compare to EV ratio n cost of water, isn't it more efficient to grow carrots n/or grapes?
carrot EV 2.5 not worth to water n grape EV 4.5 with water it's quite worthed (3x sugarcane).

 

Hello.
I want to help you but I don't know where to start explaining.

First, just enjoy the game.

What level are you?

You can submit any crop you have or can grow enough of. Some are more efficient than others.
Each crop has an exchange value.
Regardless of what you submit, the total must equal 17,500. This is NOT the market value but the exchange value (EV).

How may we assist you? What may we answer?

 

Sooooo Me being L21, I would have to grow 7000 carrots (EV2,5) in order to complete this event. Every carrot takes 10 min of staring and thumb twidling. A large field yields 5 carrots (I think), if I have 100 of those, I get 400 (500-100 to replant) in every harvest => I need 18 harvests ?? Which is 3 hours.

This does not seem right at all. Where did I go wrong ?

 

OMG.. the "ever-famous" farmer_broke answered me.. (i'm ur HUGE fan, i love all ur posts)

ok, back to business.. i'm lvl 93, i can grow most of the plants. but the timing with all the events back to back seems have drained my barn (n i believe most of us too).

i was thinking also about the time to grow. carnation is good for overnight, or roses. or if u hv raining sources of SG.
but i feel concerned about low lvl players..

the ratio of carrots n grapes to market value off course higher than carnation n roses (i think). but to grow them is more profitable to lower lvl player (again, i think)

but off course with the helpers n CAC on 1x1 field wud make life's easier..

ooh Moraine, u're not wrong.. i'm sorry if i couldn't explain myself clearly.. how can i say..
hmm.. may be like this..

i picture myself sitting on my laptop 1-2 hrs. i have 12hr helpers coupons from events or FSQ. n i have CAC from CR or buying cheaper from the market long ago..

i rip off my farm n put 1x1 field to plant carrots till i get bored. then plant corn or other 2-3hrs crops. leave my laptop a while to do other thing..
back to laptop, harvest, plant carrot again for another hr. then when i'm ready to log out (before the helpers run out), i'll plant long hour crops.

but that's just me.. u r free to plant what suits u well off course..

 

Nice to meet you and thank you for your kind words.

7th - 13th July: Breeding Layer Event (Nublons)
8th - 10th July: Soccer Finale
(from monthly calendar)

There is overlap of events here. Some planning is good if you wish to work both events.

At level 93 you probably have some crops in your barn that you may use. But if you wish to grow crops then growing the crop with the highest exchange value (EV) lessens the total number of crops you have to grow. Time to completion should always fit your real life schedule while keeping your fields active.

You are right about the ratio. The ratio is so high that growing to donate is usually not the best choice. (This does not always hold tree when one begins thinking about selling.)

Here are questions which may assist you:
Are you growing to donate?
Are you growing to sell?
Are you growing to sell and then to buy another to donate?

If you do not have anything in your barn to donate or will run short on time and need then this farm will help. The farm can send you an artisan product you may sell and then just use the proceeds to buy what you need. Simply let me know.

Notice that the price for both carnations and roses is somewhat higher. This is due to demand. This change the market price to EV ratio as it should. (The EV remains the same.)

If we are using buffs and or refinements then this whole question and answer process begins again.

If growing to sell and to buy another then given given this market and assuming I could harvest regularly ....... I would grow corn during to day using 1x1s and CAC and water, sell it, and buy the crop with the lowest market value to EV ratio.

---edit---

With the breeding event one needs drops in order to take advantage of baby boom. Maybe one can borrow from what is in the barn in order to take advantage of baby boom and then replace it after baby boom by growing it. Just a thought and what many will be doing.

 

Hi Moraine

The 17500 worth of EV is for each game of ball you want to play. You do not finish the entire event only playing one game but you don't have to do it all. Each game will give you coins. Pick and choose and spend your coins as you find best.
Good luck.

 

Ahh, I knew it - I knew I had messed up something some where. Thank you meba. 3 hours for every ball then - hmmm, depends on the snail rain - is it just a drop now and then on carrots, or will it even out nicely. I know I don't have to do the event, just those stars... those very much needed stars
