Yes I was also waiting for their post however, thanks BlackCaviar

 

Thank you BlackCaviar. I started trying to work out the requirements and my head hurt! So I went to soak in a bubby bath and voila! You had done all the sums for me and all the other farmers. SOS thread is now done.

Good luck everybody!

 

Have I read this right. We get the Cloud Row but the givers we get twice??

 

Think that's right Fifi. Not sure why ...

 

Thank you for doing the math, Black Caviar!

Sewinglady is so excited for this event! It's SEWING related! Of course, she can't post here, so you'll just have to take my word for it. (tehee!)

I can't decide whether to go all out and try and complete this one or do what I can and sell manure...hmmm...the manure thing worked out pretty well for me last time since I knew I'd never be able to get 20 white cows.

 

Thanks @BlackCaviar , just went shopping before the price hikes hit and loaded up my barn

 

2 sets of givers, now we'll have 1 set for the cloud row and the other set can go in the park or the bay. Or they can be used to fill all those 1x2 slots on the non-themed rows. I hope they'll give us extras more often.
Thanks for doing the math BC.

 

It will allow those that can't complete the fifth room to still be able to complete the cloud row by getting the cloud row in the first step of the fifth room.

 

Thanks BlackCaviar for the thread & also for the above reasoning. I would not have found out if you have not pointed out. Also thanks to fifitrixiebell for pointing the double rewards.

Some tips to plan more strategy.

Halloween Calender News:

Day 3 reward might be 100% EP for 24 hrs
&
Day 7 +1 crop for 36 hrs.

So friends plan accordingly. This is the assumption (rumour) and don't take me to task if it doesn't happen

No time for me to plan strategy. Will be very busy tomorrow. So I will make plans tomorrow evening, if I am home early.
Its time for me to say Good Night. See you tomorrow.

 

Thanks BlackCaviar for setting up the event amounts!!!! I overslept...and being a west coaster....It would have taken me eons to figure it all out.(especially without necessary caffeine )

Good tips 12ss12! Thanks

 

Thanks from me too BC, for the amounts and the reasoning.

 

Thanks BC This looks great, an extra set of givers is nice and we can continue growing what MM crops we want to

 

Thanks for The Maths and Statistics BlackCaviar ....The FAQ has been Kind to us so that Getting the Cloud Row is Optional but Still Need to Get 175 Shimmershrooms (Drop Item) From Moonlight Mania Playing Field to Obtain Cloud Row, With one Set of EP/Baha EP Givers...You only Need only 660 Spider Silks for this Part of This Event

You will be needing an Extra 260 Spider Silks to Complete 5th Chartacter Level 2,3 and Level 4 to Get your 2nd Set of EP/BEP Givers which you can either place them in your Park or Shipwreck.

How to Maximise Drop of Shimmershrooms in Moonlight Mania Playing Field

• Place Glowmold in all 202(1x1) Field at least 8 Hours Before Halloween Dress to Thrill Event Starts (This is longest Spooky Crop that you can Grow)
• Place any Tentacle Willow Trees you Managed to Create From Jack's Shop (This Tree takes 10 hours to grow but can be shorten down to 6hrs 30 Mins using Super Mulch !)
• You can use water to Speed up Growth Time Glowmold by 20%
• You can use Manure to Speed up Growth Time only by 5% but if have Growth Boost Rune Unlocked it is 10% (It Might be too costly to do this)
• Use Your Howie Donuts if you have any to Boost The Drops
• If you not got Living Legend Rune unlock remember to place and move your Animal/Crop Trophies Around
• Always Check that your Terror Bouquet Buff is Active in Gold Slot during Whole Halloween Event as it reduces your Spooky Crops Growing time by 20% this helps reaps your Shimmershrooms sooner !!
• You Cannot use Comfort Fields in Moonlight Mania Playing Field....I suggest to Seed your Glowmold Crops as Overnight Crop or any Tentacle Willow Trees you have to get Best Drop Rate of Shimmershrooms
• If you are using Tentacle willow Trees Dont Forget to use Suzy Super row on them..Each will give you 6 Willow Tentacles

Milling 4 Cloured Fabrics

• 462 Violets ( Buy 100 Seeds from the Stores Daily for 4050 CC) (More Pricey in The Markets)
• 396 Lily of The Valley ( Buy 100 Seeds from the Stores Daily for 7500 CC) (More Pricey in The Markets)
• 660 Orchids( Buy 100 Seeds from the Stores Daily for 3000 CC) (More Pricey in The Markets)
• 462 Sunflowers ( Buy 100 Seeds from the Stores Daily for 700 CC) (More Pricey in The Markets)
• Need to Mill 33 of Each Colour Total of 11880 Creepy Cotton + 528 Spider Silk

Spider Silk Drops

• 920 Spider Silk to Complete Whole Event
• 260 Spider Silk to Complete to Get Second Lot of EP/Baha EP Givers
• 528 Spider Silk to Mill 33 X 4 Coloured Fabrics
• 132 Spider Silk to Donate Towards The 4 Chartacters Quest

It Helps to have your Farm Well Prepared to get as Many Drops of Spider Silks and shimmershrooms as you can, I suggest not to keep you Moonlight Mania Playing Idle for too Long as it will make you Struggle to get all 175 shimmershrooms for this Event.

I also Suggest to send your Neighbours and Buddies Shimmershrooms as these will be more harder to Obtain than Spider Silks due to High Likeness of Idle Time in Moonlight Mania Playing Field !!!

I hope you all Enjoy this Event

Happy Halloween

 

Very nice and well thought out summary Mooboy!

 

Thanks for the additional info and strategy tips, Mooboy!

 

Thanks for the additional tips Mooboy, very nicely done.

I did double check with the powers that be and we will get the Spider silk drops from stables and workshops as well as crops and trees. Just in case anyone was thinking of what this event will do to the already high manure prices and was looking to cash in on it.

 

• If you are using Tentacle willow Trees Dont Forget to use Suzy Super row on them..Each will give you 6 Willow Tentacles

In the Farmer's society in the disobedience school quest the 3rd section last quest has an XL upgrade to the Tentacle willow tree that is ready to harvest in 8:48. Just to give a heads up to anyone that hasn't seen it yet.

 

Wow, I didn't realize you couldn't place trophies on the MM field but that does make sense. It would be a nightmare if someone forgot and they got stuck on the field when it closed. Yet another reason I'm happy I pushed for LL rune and got rid of those pesky things.

I've got to get all the bats and crows and so forth off my fields, sadly I didn't read the forum when I harvested this morning and I fed quite a few workshops. It's going to play havoc with my timing on setting up a long crop for maximum drops.

Thanks to BlackCaviar and Mooboy for the event breakdown and advice! Good luck to everyone and Happy Halloween!

 

Yes, thank you BlackCaviar and Mooboy!! I roughly figured it out this morning and was off on a couple of things BUT I completely missed those words under the Glimmershrooms. I keep telling my grand daughter when I was in grade school I used to get "U"s (unsatisfactory) in "Reads and follows instructions well" Guess I haven't outgrown that
