Santapalooza: SantaCon 2014 Strategy

Hey Aluntino,

I've tried this, but somehow it's more effective for me to actually log out and log back in. Or at least it seems so.....

 

I want to say that you should immediately unlock this cloud rows. Especially the rewards of this event (5% reduces the production time of the workshop) is needed for The Last Candle event tomorrow...

Good luck everyone..

 

If you have any details of this event, please post them?

 

Click on that The Last Candle..
Direct link for the FAQ..

 

Thank you, just found them!

(now I am the silly one.. lol)

EDIT.. don't want to start a strategy thread (leave that to the experts), but just calculated we will need, in addition to the regular chickens and eggs , we will need 340 chickens EDIT.. 256, as noted below ) and 86 PF to just for ONE Gumbo chicken without skips.. and the prices have already gone waaaay up!

 

I am sure baby boom day is coming this weekend Hopefully there will be plenty of skips

 

Actually, you need 256 chickens:
4 normal * 4 roasters * 4 Silky * 4 Cuckoo = 4 * 4 * 4 * 4

But, however much you need, this is indeed a hell of a lot. And that on top of the Chestnut event where people already had to donate so much......

@-Mir85- I hope you're right! It would be my first BBD I'd get to enjoy. It would be fun

 

My bad... I added all the steps. Still a LOT.

 

As a former IT Pro... I can tell you, for the purpose of this conversation, browser refresh is as effective as logout/in. And quicker.

 

Cuckoo?? We do not need cuckoo eggs for The Last Candle event..

Let me correct for you, I make calculation without any skips :
4 normal chickens + 2 PF = 1 roaster,
4 roasters + 2 PF = 1 silky,
4 silkies + 2 PF = 1 crazy chicken,
4 crazy chickens + 2 PF = 1 gumbo.

1 gumbo = 256 normal chickens + 170 PF.

For every level required 25 products, 562 normal animals and 340 PFs.


EDIT : Have to correct my numbers for PFs usage.

 

If only

 

So sorry Silly Guy but it will take more PF than 8 to get a gumbo.

It is true that 4 normal chickens and 2 PF will give you a roaster (unless you get a skip) but you will need 4 rounds of breeding to make enough roasters to to make 1 silky. That means in order to get the silky, you will need 16 normal chickens and 8 PF. You will need 128 PF for the gumbo.

 

ops... wrong numbers, Mir.

I edited the correct numbers.
It should be 170 PFs for 1 gumbo.

 

If you do all the levels you will receive 310 PF back in rewards...

Here's hoping we all get good skips!

I only have the rabbits in stock so will have to breed everything else.

 

• 256 chickens + 128 PF = 64 roasters
• 64 roasters + 32 PF = 16 silkys
• 16 silkys + 8 PF = 4 crazy chickens
• 4 crazy chickens + 2 PF = 1 gumbo

That makes a total of 170 PF

But don't worry about those numbers, a few skips make a great difference If you are really lucky you can get a gumbo from 4 chickens and 2 PF here is to hoping

I have one pygmy goat, have to breed the rest BTW, suzee has opened a strategy thread

 

Thanks for the math Mir! I cannot count today!

 

Thanks for the Correction. I guess another update for the FAQ's is in order. I copied my list straight from the FAQ Chickens:

 

Don't worry about it pnp, it is a useless calculation anyway

Sheriziya, the crazy chickens used to be called cuckoo's But when the cuckoo event was introduced they were renamed. Like you said, the FAQ just hasn't been updated

 

Ah, that explains it than

Thanks, Mir!

 

A little worried about "a skip":

4 crazy chickens + 2 PF = not 1 gumbo, but you get higher valued animal such as 1 mini/breezy/rainbow/golden hen.

You have to start again from normal animal..
Or you can sell it in market and buy gumbo..
