    " REMEMBER to switch lanes depending on the rewards you wish to collect because your progress in the event is irreversible. "

    This is what FAQ says. So if you miss a prize, its gone forever. Think twice before choosing a prize. That's for me too.

    Thanks Esca and Meba for the numbers and paths to follow. Another event with tons of junks to grow :sleepy:. But I'm in...all the way ;)
    I have different paths for each farm mapped out so should be totally lost by the end. xD May the drops be plentiful :)

    Thanks everyone for the strategy for this event! I too think I will just stick to one lane as I am not as brave as some of your are;) and need to use my drops and crops wisely! So Good Luck to everyone and I hope we all get what we go after!:p I :inlove: the givers!!

    I just saw this and to avoid any confusion I will just add you cannot move up and down ONLY from side to side - between the lanes. And remember to check out where you switch lane as is can cost extra fuel (more than just the regular needed for the switch) ie if you want to switch in the middle of a 6 step you need to use 2 xl fuel instead of 1 xxl. It all depends on where you switch and how the path will be from that point. Hope it makes sense.

    Doing one step at a time, if you wont to switch lanes, it will cost you 1 fuel each switch. Correct?

    I have decided not to do this one. It looks a decent event but I have other priorities on my farm. Many of my tree stocks are low so I will use the time to replenish them.
    Good luck everyone doing the event. :):)

    Hi littlejim

    Correct. But you will be better of taking 6 steps at a time when possible because the use of crops and drops are lower in the xxl fuel than in the others.

    Insane drops and not a lot of reward for anyone looking for rares or Baha rewards. Count me out this time.

    Muchas garcias for the maths and paths amigos!

    My advise is to head over to the grocery prior to the start of this race. I think everyone taking part will be in need for some super fuel foods and drinks themselves.. I know I will otherwise there's no way I'll get over 18k crops and 1k drops while it being Summer here.
    Got to compensate for less sleep. :)

    This looks like an event I can not do without the rainforest and some really good time and planning. Guess what, don't have any of that atm xD In the middle of a move all week. BUT I shall make an effort and grab as much of the good stuff I can. So I am thinking, just biofuel, no xl or xxl. Too complicated and can't see how I would get the most goodie doing that. I am for TEPs and givers.
    Doing my calculation and drawing up my map on where to switch and when to snail on on the the same lane.

    Wish me luck and hand over the painkillers.

    You will get the most benefit of your crops and drops if you use xxl fuel when possible. You get more fuel per crop and drop using that. It takes you 6 steps. Just remember to check where you want to switch if that's what you plan on doing. Every switch will cost you 1 regular fuel though and if you know you will have trouble making it then perhaps you should consider doing the lanes in full without changing - choosing the best one for you. Just a thought...

    Good luck!

    absolutely true, if my goal was givers and CR. But there are for me, many goodies on the way there, and I have a snowballs chance bla bla... So aiming to get as much out of each race as I can. Who knows. might not be able to finished the first. Thank you for pointing it out for me tho, I could have on a wild mulch hunt again:wuerg:

    My strategy:
    Race 1-4 Top Lanes
    Race 5: 1-16 Bottom Lane
    17-26 Top Lane

    48 xxl, 3 xl, and 8 regular fuel: 18,335 crops, 1025 drops, and 2571 sunflowers
    I will not rip out my Rainforest and will be doing the event only on 4 fields.

    For BillyWhiskers: same race but will use rainforest

    On Your Mark, Get Set, GO!

    Firstly I been studying FAQ Carefully. It going to be a Hard Event for many of us Including me as i will hardly be able to Farm my Farm This Friday 29th July as it will be my Big 50th Birthday as my partner is correctly said i need to spend quality time with Friends lol.

    This is an 6 Day Event, As we can grow Camelina in All Fields, using 1 x 1 Fields used with CAC. As we need to complete 304 Event Steps Requirements Breakdown Calculated by Escalonilla

    Then the total requirements are:

    event plant: 18290
    drop item: 1021
    sunflower: 2559

    I am going to Aim to do Seven (7) Harvest of all 5 Fields of Camelina. Which Can be achieved under 3 days of Harvesting of Camelina.

    But i will unable to harvest on my Birthday to will not be able to reap those needed Fuel Cans so i going to have to do some Nuking Refinements of Leeks using +1 Veg Cloud Row to make up short fall of Fuel Cans.

    From The FAQ to Get The Prizes in a certain order will not work using as Little Fuel Cans as you can by doing XXL Bio Fuels most of the time. As i am write down a sequence that works best to obtain the prizes i like to get most or best of..... I am prepared to use little more than 1021 Fuel Cans !!

    Note: Race 2 Step 19 Bottom Step you can gain 5 Farm Wheel Spins, Make sure you Farm Wheel Spins are all spent before getting this Prize !!

    I would Tread Carefully on those Bio Fuels, as it may mess up what prizes you like to get, This is not a Straight Forward Event to do. Just Do what you can and Carefully as you Can Good Luck ;)

    Ok, wait...where was I going again?!?o_O:pxD

    Set up my fields here for a (hopefully) good drop start using refined carnations on comfort fields. Left Baha as is for now (animals and trees in rainforest, menagerie, fields and trees on main) and worry about changing it out to mostly fields later. I've pulled/will pull the majority of my trees, including Jumbos, for this event-.-, as I'm uncertain as to how much time I'll have to farm the first 3 days of the event, so I want to maximize my growing space. Will follow in 007's spysteps and wait until Friday to decide how to proceed, hopefully will find time between now and then to figure out paths for each race.:p Now off to plan bearbabe.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOOBOY!:D[​IMG][​IMG]
