That is a lot of event crops and drops for only two fields and 6 days!

Race 6 is optional for players who do not want the Victorian Greenhouse Upgrades nor the bonus giver Cosmic Race.

Good luck everyone!

 

Is that number of FUEL´s - minimum amount, "straight to goal" - no doubles or nothing special?

edit: OK, mentioned that option 3 - we get all the "main bonuses" x 2 !

 

Wow Nordais I admire your effort in providing all the figures for us Thank You.

Only having played the MM fields only once its just a case of seeing what I can achieve for now as dont have 2 full fields and my goal is looking at what I need to open up all of Mushroom field

Good luck everyone

 

Thanks Nordais for doing the sums.

That is a lot of crops for most of us, let alone those who have yet to open all the fields. I'm in and I wish the best of luck to everybody going for it!

 

Phew, Northy, you are tireless...don't know how you do it, but so grateful that you do!

I'm busy in RL, but will see what I can do with this. I love MM events and the playing fields. In my hasty reading of FAQs and your Northy's Notes, I'm still not clear on how this works, but that will come as y'all make a start when it goes live (and I'm sound asleep on this side of the globe!) Will check back tomorrow to read more comments. Thanks again for all your hard work.

 

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Nordais, you are my hero for saving me from trying to figure this on my own one race at a time! I know we all appreciate your time and effort that you give us doing these strategy post for us all! Good luck everyone and again Nordais thanks!

 

Option 1: each prize just one time
Option 2: using Luminous Fuel XXL to get 4 Victorian Greenhouse Upgrades+ 4 Steam Tickets for the new spinning wheel
Option 3 : Option 2 + two copies of each giver

The best giver is the one we get from Race 6 called Cosmic Race, it goes on the pet playground and is 1000 x farm level EP/TEP!

 

Thank you @Nordais for the strategy thread.

The event is Bad.
Worst Event Ever!
I'll ignore it.
​

 

We are in the middle of another wind storm...weather man on the local news said we could have up to 93mph gusts with this one. More of our roof is already gone. Ugh.

On the MIL front: She is going home TOMORROW! She has made amazing progress. Pushed herself, I am sure of this...and it's all because she feels she has to take care of FIL (I'm pretty sure I'm "not doing it right" - that's a pug thing, actually, but apparently also applies to MILs). DH and I will still be helping out a lot - there are things she can't quite do just yet and things that need to be changed to make chores easier (laundry, mostly).

All that is to say that as much as I would like the upgrades for the greenhouse, I am sitting this event out. I just am not able to farm enough to do the event. Please send drops to other players who are participating. And everyone stay warm, dry and well!

 

Sorry to hear you are having such challenging times.

We have a ice storm and everything is covered in black ice... Winds picked up this morning and we will get more snow/pellets/rain in the next few days. Wishing for spring to come as soon as possible!

Don'T forget to take care of yourself too.

 

*Edit to ask @Nordais the total and complete number we need for creepy camelinas is 20650? I just wanted to make sure if that includes what's needed for milling as well. And would this number be changed, for example if making a mistake or something during the event and accidentally wasting some of the creepy camelinas? I haven't gotten as far as to play it yet so I'm not sure how it'll go, I'm just focused on accumulating the creepy camelinas first. Thank you in advance for answering if you see this!

Thank you, Northy.
I'm in for this one. Good luck to all participating.

 

Wow!!!!! I was cooking lunch with terrible difficulty to do anything in the game (techinical reasons) and now i open the forum and meet this amazing chart Thank you very much, Nordais! I was like @sandollar15, trying to figure out what to do (think they

changed things a little bit).

Good luck everyone!

 

Usually the event is on the main field, with camelinas and sunflowers. The new thing is that Luv Fuel made with drops from breeding and asking for two different MM crops to mill the Luv Fuel.

@MeadowCrossing : now manure is starting to sell for more, it won't be long before it is back in the 1000CCs...

 

Thanks for all your hard work Northy!

My four farms are sitting this one out. I will do the timed weekend event and be happy with the four greenhouse upgrades from it. RL is just too complicated atm. Please send drops to others. I will continue to send drops out.

 

I have changed my mind. I am going to try to do a little of this event on this farm and SL's. And going to tackle the timed quest thing that starts tomorrow, too.

Whatever I get done is what gets done and any prizes are all gravy.

My laptop can travel across town to the in-laws, so I can harvest some while I'm there, anyway.

The winds have stopped this evening. Now that everything has blown to the eastern side of the state. Now the snow is supposed to start. I'm with Northy - I vote for winter to be over now.

 

Strength and endurance, as well as good luck, are needed to survive in those areas where winter storms and winds are more than enough!

The saying "it is Lottery Win to be born in Finland"... (of course it is winter here too),

but the winds are not 60-100mph (in our kilometers, 96-160 km/h) and all the little snow that has fallen on the ground during the Greenhouse Effect (and Golf stream), (30-40 years ago in this city was all tje Winters at least 80-100cm now only 5-15 cm SNOW) has almost melted by the time spring comes and the rains turn into water and sleet!

---> The above is indeed "off topic" BUT since it seems that the world is suffering from it and A LOT, so May the Force be with you (whether you watched the movies in question or not)!

After all the worldly reflection, I am happy to see that 22700 plants and still small fields produce 10 seeds in 9 hours...

Now I just need to get a lot of DROPS, then I can be "nasty" in a different way from my usual life and greedy" like this in the game and dare to get all the prizes! You can't take it badly, like this only IN THE GAME!

---> I try to remember "with the idea of Hammurabi's law" all my Neighbors who do the same and donate DROP-Fuel !!!

 

You will get these drops when harvesting your crops and trees on the fullmoon field and mushroom forest.

I have harvested a few times and haven't received one goggle. It looks as though the only way to receive them is to breed. Am I correct?

 

Thanks Nordais for your sublime calculations!!! Are you an accountant or mathematician in RL? You are a wizard and quick with numbers!
I'm in....haven' had this event in quite awhile.
Good luck to all!!!

 

I think those drops are only available when you harvest the breeding hut. We are having a baby boom tomorrow (Saturday). No discount day, but at least it's a baby boom day.

Honestly, I think that BP discovered we all were hoarding power feed and decided to reduce our stores to nothing as fast as they could.

 

I think you've misread, the FAQ always stated that the drop from crops and trees on both MM fields was the fuel can, the aviator goggle coming from breeding (also breeding will help with the timed quest with a medium chance of getting two hourglasses with each breeding)
