    I agree, it is very disappointing. 2 cow dairies are not what I expect to find on the party spins. I have lots of spins waiting to be used but have only spun once. I refuse to spin if there are low level prizes.

    I also haven't seen many rare stables. I was pleased to see different red upgrades to the ever present red bat, but although I bought spins I haven't spun more than once due to the fact that I am faced with a raft of workshops and yellow workshops that I don't want or need. They need to be gone; they're not worth 8BB so they shouldn't be there.

    More spins, and I have to say more disappointment. Set aside the yellow pen issue for now (though I think we have plenty of red bats, never mind the yellows!), but the following were 2 choices I consider quite poor:

    One spin offered a skunk as a "top" prize, with 4 sets of mulch, 3 susy super grow (the propeller), and 2 powerfeed (powerfeed is OK, rest ... eh). Further, 7you offer 10 super grow, but only 4 mulch.. and mulch is not even worth as much as the supergrow!

    On another, I think the top prize was OK (cannot remember what it was... which should say something!), but a pumpkin tart, pretzels and 2 guava jams.. all LOW level craft products! (plus you had mulch on that run). Definitely not what I expect from even a normal party wheel, never mind a party fun days wheel!

    Overall.. no longer happy I got my tickets. I will save them for what will hopefully be a decent event later.. or, just eventually I will get the latest birdhouse whenever it is introduced. Sad, really, because I think this had the potential to be a nice event, even for older players. We understand that you are not necessarily going to give us all our "favorites", but some better offerings would be appropriate. After all, these tickets are not free. (even for those with the pet that offers tickets ... the pet had to be purchased and the one a week ticket, while nice, is hardly enough to unbalance anyone's game).

    I plan on buying a few sets of 200 party spins before the sale ends, to stock up. I love to spin the prize wheel during the Moonlight mania events especially if there is a chance to win the double harvest. I love going for the jackpot prizes, and wish there would be another series like the flowers or the scarecrow to collect. If I want supergrow or powerfeeds I buy them when on sale. There should be a booby prize sound effect when one lands on a lowly artisan gift or ridiculous stable, because it sure plays in my head! Whaaawhaaawhaaaa! and a low toned crashing horn sound.......Oh well we can't win em all! hehe :)
    Isn't that the attraction of spinning a prize wheel, The great prize and the so so prize, makes getting the great prize even better!!!

    I liked the chance to get older animal pens but all I seem to get is scarecrows and castles.:( If ever we can trade them you farmers know who to ask. Please give me a chance to get an animal pen. :(

    42 spins on my prize wheel and I have hit harvest bonus three times now. This means I get 4 animals for every harvest instead of 1!!!!!! I like the new prizes on the Prize Wheel, it has made it fun to spin. I also like how frequent the grand prizes are changing. Thanks BP for making positive change to the Prize Wheel. I will be up all night harvesting. ​

    I don't know whether I am jumping the gun here :p, but is BP actually considering that players need to recover from previous events? I can't speak for anyone else, but I have skipped the last 2 events because of lack of crops/animals and RL funds to buy the baskets available :oops:. I think I will skip the Mind's Eye as well :( as these growing crops/breeding events are too close together :oops: for people with real lives and real jobs :wuerg:

    My feed back on the mini events is the changes to the Farm Wheel has vastly improved the prizes and offerings. I have gotten so many III stables and I have never had so many Harvest Bonus hits ever. It was so worth buying spins. After 87 spins I hit FOUR Harvest bonus jackpots!!! I love the new Farm Wheel changes! I feel so lucky!! I want to thank BP for the changes, it sure has made my game a lot of fun to play! Especially since I am going to be up all night tonight playing, reaping the benefits of getting 81 crops per comfort plot and 20 animals per neon pen! hehe[​IMG]

    I have same Farmwheel Strategy as Farmerumf as I only do Party Spins if they are Possible Prizes to Win, Such as 100% Harvest or 200% EP or Good Breeding Animal. Bundle of Power Feeds

    I only did few Spins but was Aiming for 100% Harvest but missed it this time. It was suppose to give us chance to win Rare Stables often but did not see them on Wheel Hardly at All.

    I got Enough Scarecrows and Birdhouses as i do not want any more of them as they cannot be Traded at Barter and Gift Event. As My Shipwreck is already full of BEST TEP Givers i had.

    I have Several Jumbo Trees That Gives me Super Grow and Suzy Super Grow and Suzy Super Mulch. This is the other reason why i hold back on my Party Spins. Conserving my Party Spins to win better Prizes Later.

    I have already won decent amount of Orange and Red Stables from Express Train recently. Therefore this narrows down to only Handful of Prizes i like to get. Not worth risking my Party Spins for. Perhaps Next Time will better Prizes.

    StellaStar That is Super Wonderful to win 4 x 100 Harvest it is very rare feat to see on Farmerama :D But hope you had plenty of Black Coffee to Keep you wake though the Night I can see you have been growing Wheat did you use Oat Bread that give 25% More Wheat....Using Comfort Fields did you use Wheat Refinements too :p Have lots of Fun :D

    I really wanted Moose stables, I got one. :)
    I won an amazing amount of PF, SG and SSG, xDxD so much of each it really was worth buying the 200 pack
    I also won the 200% EP several times and the 100% barn goods twice.:D
    If I never see another scarecrow or Pagoda castle again I'll be happy.:wuerg::(

    As usual, I love the the babyboom! It may be my imagination, but I do feel I got more skips than in prior runs.

    woody, I think it is your imagination. I have not seen anything great in the way of skips. Really wish that breeding upper level animals would result in better skips. At this point, one is better off breeding only basic animals. At least there you can skip 2 or 3 levels instead of maybe a one level skip or only twins.

    I usually love baby boom...BUT I am really disappointed...animals that would normally skip arent. I should have had 2 pink pens already...I am getting really frustrated lately.

    There have been far too many events requiring breeding animals lately and far too many new breeding animals introduced. Once I have completed the the FSQs for the animals I have, I won't bother doing and new breeding.
    BBD used to be fun, now it's just tedious-.-

    I only play Mach-O-Meter during Renzo's as I don't have much luck at the other things. However the last few months that meter really needs some WD-40;):p It just jerks and seems to get stuck so once again I will save my tickets until it's fixed-.-

    Glad you said that Julie I thought Mach-o-Metre was glitchy (and I do clear my cache regularly and restart so didn't see how it could be me since everything else is running okay).
