    I like this event because I can just farm away; it still involves strategy but it gives us time to stock up our barns with things that we may need or finish FSQ instead of having to abandon everything, rip up our fields and grow vast quantities of event crops. The prizes are very generous considering and I love that you can win the event items twice - great to fill up empty parks/shipwreck.

    Got the CR :) I am not going to continue as there are too low drop rates and I will not be able to harvest and get drops before or after going to work :cry:

    Hmm, I have to say the event in total did nothing to enthuse me. If you use only drops without using fuel, growing event crop, you need over 1000 to just get the cloud row. If you do grow the event crop, you only save a couple hundred drops for the whole race. If you grow the event crop you need around 18 thousand. o_O

    I don't know about you but it seems that isn't an incentive to grow the event crop. If you do decide to grow it, the amount required is daunting. The Devs put alot of effort to design a nice event crop with many not even growing it.

    I like the idea of the event, just not that well thought out in my opinion. I think this would have worked better if you could have used only 700 - 900 drops for the whole event if you grow event crop. Event crop number should be down to more manageable numbers like 1200 -1400 crops. You could still have the option of not growing the event crop, but make the drop numbers much higher in difference of growing vs. not growing event crop if you want people to grow the event crop. Only one type if milled fuel would be better I think.

    All-in-all, I'm not impressed. -.-

    BP can do better, it has in the past. I do appreciate you trying though, that I do like to see. ;)

    Would have really enjoyed this Event .....IF the Drops had been better ....instead I was extremely glad to get it over and done with

    The Drops were pathetic from day 1..
    The amount of time and effort that was put into this event ...warranted more then what was dropped

    This took the fun aspect out of this game....It COULD and SHOULD have been fun ... that's what games are meant to be aren't they FUN ?????

    This wasn't FUN in my book ...in fact it was a CHORE ...that i wont be doing again if another one like this comes along in the future

    As Baw has stated ...not that well thought out and i agree

    If it wasn't for My neighbours and the people in the strategy threads... i wouldn't have completed this event ...with the extremely poor drops i was getting from Carnations with the time of 18:54
    Tried many of my crops and whatever i put out on my fields ....the results were not much different
    Moan over xD

    I really enjoyed this event as it was a bit different to others. I managed to complete it the day before and was glad I decided at the start to mainly grow the event plant to make premium fuel and progress 6 spaces at a time. At the start the event seemed easy but some stages were quite tough but worth it. It was a very good idea to give away the extra deco items in race 5 which players could win or stop after obtaining the cloud row. Also the prizes along the way were very useful too. My drop rate was Ok but I do have the Living Legend trophies and they do help. Thank you.

    I just loooooved that I did NOT have to grow any event crops during this event.:inlove:
    Drops was fine too - at least on my farm... I had no problems whatsoever winning all my races xDxDxD

    I like that not all events are a like so just keep up the good work and add more different events to this game!

    I like the Concept to Either Grow Event Crops or able to complete this Event just based on Event Drops of Turboline....Which i was able to complete this Event with the need to grow Event Crop.

    Love The Graphics of Tractor Racing as it makes it more interesting to complete this event !!! It is help to have two lots of EP Givers for this event

    The Event Prizes was reasonable ;)

    I really did like this event, the choices of how to complete gave an added challenge. Although I didn't finish on this farm, I finished on my baby farm because I had different tactics for the two farms. :)

    The only thing that I found a little odd and that has already been mentioned, there was no real incentive to mill the bio-fuels for the little they gave in return for all the effort of growing the event crop, plus the drops and Sunflowers required. It would have been better if the Premium Bio-fuel used, for example, a third of the number of drops and the normal Bio-fuel used half the required drops instead of four or one less respectively than you would have used anyway. :p

    On the whole, prizes were good and I agree that having another set of EP items from the event is definitely a bonus especially for newer players trying to fill up their Parks and Shipwreck Harbours (my baby farm being in such a position). :D

    Really think the Developers are getting better and better at giving us events that are more entertaining. ;)

    I thought this event was really fun!!!Like that it was different than others. I grew a few rounds of event crops on one field to get a bit of a jump when a race felt draggy but mostly relied on drops.

    I really like getting a second set of givers as my park and bay still have lots of room. Since I've been playing during events most givers seem attached to a CR so I'm not earning much to add to park/bay.

    I did find the drop rate more erratic than usual though. Growing a field of the same crop 2 times in a row resulted in drastically different drops earned. Also on the last day of the event(for Me) the morning harvest left me with 4 steps to finish race 5. It seemed to take forever to get the 16 turbolines needed but they finally did come through mid afternoon. I checked back just before bed time ( 5+ hours left in event here) and was really stunned to see 141 turbolines earned after I no longer needed them. A more stable drop rate would make this type of event better.

    I enjoyed this event!

    It was nice having several options for completion.

    Once I noticed the poor drop rate, I decided to use premium fuels and still only finished it in its entirety with 7 hours to spare. Happy to see a new design. The graphics were cute and well thought.

    Thumbs up here!!

    I liked the event, thank you for making it a six day event with so many options so I could plan around it. I would make two suggestions: If you are going to have duplicate givers as prizes, offering the cloud row without having to complete collecting all of the givers would be advantageous to newer players. (The duplicates will find their way, during Gift and Trade, from those who don't have a use for the extras to those who can't complete everything.) Please offer longer event crops, especially if drops are essential to completing the event. The camelina was beautiful, but generated very few drops.

    I liked the event and with several days to complete was nice.
    I like that we are being given options to grow on our own or the event crop.
    It give us the ability to keep our farms the same or change it up to maximize drops.

    I do agree about the motion sickness with the constant moving background.
    Would have been easier if it only moved when the fuel was donated.

    I also agree that the number of crops being requested are high - they are not unatainable - or a thought increase the drop rate in relation to the event crop

    One last suggestion can we please get more ways to get stars.
    Not by doing a FSQ with new trees or stables. Or very high demands on FSQ - like the cuckoo quests not sure I will ever complete those.
    When I first started playing about a year ago - each event gave 1/2/3 stars with each step and this helped to move along the tree. Then stars stopped and they have slowly started back up again but would be nice to help the new players to help fill that tree and get those necessary items like LL Rune!

    Thanks BP and Happy Holidays
