Thank you Imalattanhalka for doing all the maths!

I will do what I can but I'm not a fan of these daily events. We'll see how the drops go and how many harvests are possible in 24 hours on those events that need them.
Good luck all!

 

Thank you imalattanhalka for starting this thread.

 

Thanks imalattanhalka for starting. I was just tallying myself.

There is a discrepancy in the FAQs between languages.
English and Hungarian forums show 3 parts to day 5. The German and Italian forums only show 2 parts, like all other days.
I think its safer to plan for 3 levels.

~Edit~
The drops would want to be good considering the numbers and they can only be gotten from the Main Field. Fingers Crossed.

 

Event FAQs : "*There will be 6 daily Quests, each one lasting 24 hours:"
This sentence is annoying.

- Ghost Story Shrub = Time: 5 hours and 30 minutes , plantable on the Green Meadow only!
- Gothic Novel Shrub = Time: 6 hours , plantable on the Green Meadow only!
- Grimoire Shrub = Time: 5 hours and 30 minutes , plantable on the Green Meadow only!

* Tea Strainer : crops and trees on the Main field only!
* Tea Pot :crops and trees on the Main field only!
You will also receive 1 x Tea Pot with each breeding process completed.

* Bookmark : crops and trees on the Bahamarama plantation only!

After seeing the growing time of the plants and the desired numbers, a question that comes to mind is: When will we go to sleep?
Of course attending the event is a matter of preference. Those who want to participate participate. But I guess the game we play for fun sometimes makes us captives.
The final word as a good prisoner though: I'll start, I'll continue if I have fun.

 

Thank you Imalattanhalka for doing the numbers

 

Sleep? This word does not compute for these daily events!
I will also do what I can and if I don't make it to the bitter end, I won't be bitter!

 

Got 114 tea strainers from rose hip 1x1s

 

Clove, 1x1 to 118 tea strainers. Then I planted roses. Let's see what will happen?

blessedlady2

1st day of this event. Just falling drops. There are seeds in the later days of the event.
FAQ

 

where are the seeds?

Thanks, lol I was ready to go.

 

wow had long overnight crops and got 0 drops Sorry no coffee found them

 

They're actually going to be a little hard to get I think. I made the silly mistake of replanting rose hip which without SG is 13hr 47mins. Cant fit 2 of those into a 24 hour period. Had better do some better planning.

 

I did finish the first part and have 70 Tea Strainers left so I am hoping everybody else did okay.

Now I got a little confused for the second part - no reason, just not checking and double checking where everything gets planted or gets drops. So my Meadow was not going to be ready for nearly an hour!

Decisions, decisions. Do I clear the field completely, do I nuke it all with SG (I have a bit but what a waste) or do I just nuke 40 plots so I can get my first planting in?
Option 3: 40 SG and I can plant just after the event starts! Meaning I do not spill over into my out of Farmerama evening time.
Good luck with those spooky crops everyone!

 

My strategy:
1.Sowing process:
10 2x2 fields. 1 hour = 100 items
CAC + SG + SSG + Water + fertilizer + craft items (white 10% + fruit 5%).

2. sowing process:
4 pcs 2x2
90 pcs 1x2
6pcs 1x1 field = 802 items.

3.Sowing process:
All 1x1 field

Edit :
2. Forced change in my strategy.
98 1x2
2 1x1
= 798 items
Not everything happens with math. Need to see )

 

Assuming we can finish all 6 Daily Quest, Has any noticed the Giver Items?
I was looking though and see that we get ,

The Cloud Row

The Awakening x 2
Metamorphosis x 2
Coming Curse x 2
Something Wicked x 3
The Stuff Of Nightmares x 1

or did i read that wrong ?

 

DE and IT FAQs were correct. HU FAQ has now been amended to only show 2 levels (3 tasks per level) for Quest #5.

The third Something Wicked giver from Quest #5: L2 Gold is likely an error in the EN FAQ - see my reply to ctindaldavies above.

We get two The Stuff of Nightmares givers:

1. Quest #2: L2 Gold
2. Quest #3: L2 Diamond

 

I have unlocked The Castaway Coast as no room for Extra Guvers you can place either EP or TEP Givers here

In Castaway Coast FAQ says we will be having New Field accessible via The Lighthouse in a few weeks time will.need lots of Stars

So.Far this is nice easy event as it is appreciated that many of us able to work on quests, making CC and Stock up our Barns plus doing events These are the reasons why I do all Events spooky ones are my favourite plus love the graphics lol

I liking this event no high event crop requirements nor high event drop requirements

 

My dear neighbour reminded me that we will need Ghost Story Shrubs for the next part starting today so don't throw them all in the pot, save enough to plant again. We can get the majority of the crops before the event starts (if you haven't done what I have done and planted a long term crop already!).
Thanks to a +100% Harvest bonus, I have finished part with ease.

Mooboy: I keep forgetting to go to Castaway Coast! I may just put out mainly chargeable items there so I can easily check when they are all used up!

 

Looks amazing, but where do we get the globe berries from?

 

Shee.lagh: I'm not sure what level you are at but Globe Berries are crops that can be bought/grown. They are a six hour crop and I can see them on my second page of crops (I have my filter set on "Duration"). Hope this helps.

If you haven't got any, and are at a level high enough, you can buy them in the Store.
