    Please bring back the Tree Express.

    Please allow the disguise shop and the textile mill to be traded in Gift and Trade.

    Please remove basic workshops from Baha wonder stables. They were removed from Main farm wonder stables and it should be consistent.

    Thank you for a fun riding the train weekend. :)

    I am very unhappy with this mini event the wonder tree's. It wasn;t clear to me where to get the new animals needed for the quest. So I purchased all of them. Which was too much money so close to Moonlight Madness. Needless to say I got a lot of nothing I needed and wasted gold bars. what a rip off. I image a lot of others did it too. when I returned to read properly i see added in red was a banner that said becareful with your choices. Too Late should have been explained much better at the beginning. Why events that do take gold bars sometimes a lt are not spread out through the month amazes me. I love this game, but it feels like its requiring more money all the time to play it and a lot. Come on people give us a break here.

    The train was great, I had dozens of yellow workshops, egg farms and dairy to get rid of.
    The return cargo had a very low ratio of Yellow anything, that was really nice.

    I agree that a Tree Train would be WONDERFUL, I have several hundred trees and XL upgrades that are never used and we have never been given a chance to get rid of them.

    I agree that it was way too expensive. I did save up and buy the pack but I cannot say I was excited about the results. I truly don't know why we still yellow up grades. Yes, I got one (1) of every pen but the rest is going into the storage box. It was NOT worth 650BB's. I bought 30 of the other pens as well (opal and pearl, I think) and I got mostly junk to stick in the storage box. I was excited about this event and spent my BB's but oh boy do I regret it now. I was hoping to get some pink upgrades but not a single one. I also agree that why do we have to wait 2x for the train stables? Also, I only got yellow stables (yet more junk for the storage box). Again, either I'm very unlucky or this event was a BB raid. :eek:

    I loved both of these mini-events! How smart to run both at the same time! Mystery stables and seedlings used to be my favorites but I had quit buying them altogether-they had lost all their fun due to far too many poor outcomes, but by adding the Express event at the same time...I just recycled any unwanted pens I received in the Express and had a blast all weekend! I hope to see mystery purchase events and train events running concurrently in the future-it sure takes the sting out of underwhelming results!

    I still stand by my original post stating overall satisfaction with these 2 events. The train was great fun, and the returns, at least for me, excellent. However, I'm a bit cheesed right now over the Baha stables. I understand that I'm not going to get awesome results every time, but I find it not only irritating but insulting to spend BBs only to get items that I can buy with CCs or build myself for tools. Out of my last 5 stables, I got classic anaconda II, classic parrot II, parrot feather factory, and a basic chopstick factory. 30 BBs for 2 basic factories that cost nothing but tools to build? Really?>:( That's just not right.-.- Trying not to be a whiner, but that just feels so wrong to me.

    :inlove:BP thank you!! This Express was worth it!. I got at 3 of the 4 new stables, and then multiples of those. Great event! Now lets have the Tree Express with upgrades for all trees over 1 year in the game. While still getting the newer trees introduced over the last year and the upgrades already issued.

    But all in all Thanks!! :inlove:

    I think one of my biggest issue was the inequity of pink pens...some got a lot while others got none...I traded that train every hour...I its insulting to get a yellow beehive...got other crappy pens...it wasnt until the end that I got a pink and it was something i had...

    As far as Baha....the prices were exorbitant and quite frankly felt like extortion. I received so many tigers that I was trading them on the train...disappointed as well in the pens...seriously---I got three orange chopsticks, and tons of pens that weren't worth the price...this will make me think long and hard about purchasing anything for another. event...seriously some I really thought this event would have given more pinks

    Mill subscription sale, I know it hasn't been let and I do love it, but the last one was exactly a month ago (Feb 13-14), so it really needs to be a regular every month thing. There is nothing more frustrating than when it runs out.

    This Party ticket event is allowing me to stock up on suzy's super grow, that's what I seem to be getting along with the Red Bat Roost which I have 12 so far...in 60 tries I got 3 jackpots...hmmm. Is it my luck or the wheel has it out for me? I spent a lot of money on this people.
    Edit:
    Okay I'll eat my shorts now, or the equivalent. The wheel messed up and wouldn't stop spinning, then I couldn't close it, then I had to re-start the computer...
    I complained bitterly that jackpots were hens teeth. After 64 tries and finally, then another, and another. I just got 3x 200% ep; AFTER I harvested everything! LOL!

    I have mixed opinions about this farm wheel special. I know a lot of newer players are eager for different pens. They are not of humongous interest to me, but I am still looking for some scarecrows. However, the allocation is a bit off. On my first try, I got a red crow pen upgrade as a lessor prize. I think a scarecrow was the top. Both perfectly reasonable. On my next try, I got a ... cryptovase???? for a party ticket??? it would be OK for a regular ticket, a party ticket? I did a few more tries, then the wheel switched up, and instead of a scarecrow/birdhouse, EP bonus, etc, your "big" prize was a frog pen??? I did click, actually by mistake, got some mulch. (at least its 4 and not 2), then rolled again and the top prize was a kingfisher. Further, when the pen is the top prize, there don't seem to be other pens as prizes. If you are going to put pens as the top prize, it at least should be an upgrade or something better.. maybe an otter or swan. And, when pens are the special, I think folks expect more than just one pen to be on the wheel. one pen is normal, not a special.

    Although it did not happen this time, another "miss" on your part was putting an XXL pine tree as the top prize. I mean, maybe down lower as a kind of booby prize, but a pine tree of any sort is NOT a jackpot!

    I also have mixed feelings about this farmwheel special. The OA stated that there would be an increased chance for the older rare pens. I did see more red upgrades but the older pens are few and far between. I received quite a few basic workshops and once a yellow upgrade, as well as crafted items that are fairly inexpensive in the market. The basic workshops, yellow upgrades and artisan products are fine for the daily Fuzzles spin but they are out of proportion for BB party spins. I tried for some of the rare pens as it would be cheaper than wonder stables, but was very disappointed in 45 attempts to not get one at all. I had saved my spins and would have bought some if the return was better. I was glad to see the ability to get some older stables from the wheel as when I tried the wonder stables earlier in the month, I mostly got orange upgrades.

    As a side note, if I had been going for a scarecrow or the birdhouses, I would have been disappointed in that too. None of my spins gave either of those.

    Overall, a great concept (I was so excited waiting for the event to start yesterday) but the actual experience left me very disappointed.
