Hi, I am really hoping the drops are dropping well for this event. It does appear to be a little demanding!

Here is the link for the SOS thread:

SOS Christmas Nights Event Drop Items/Festive Stars
Good luck as always all!

 

Thanks for working out the different strategies for us Thomas and a Happy Christmas to you too.

 

Thank you, Thomas!! I really appreciate all the info and steps you have provided Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you too from the USA!!

 

Thank you ThomasZ you are such a help to us all! I also want to wish you and the people of
Hungary and around the world, the Happiest of Christmas's and a safe and happy
New Year from the USA!

 

Thank you Thomas. You made it easy to choose my goals, less stress that way.
Wishing you and all of yours a Merry Christmas and a healthy and Happy New Year!

 

Thank you so much Thomas for working out the calculations.Easy to follow and less work to do with sorting out the requirements.Hope the drops will be better this time.Good luck to everyone!!Merry Christmas to all the farmerama friends!!May all your wishes come true!!

 

May your days be merry and bright, Thomas! Thanks so much for the strategy!

 

Good luck Illy...i thought this event started today ... big panic ...i was kicking myself for not preparing my fields over night ...then found out today wasn't the 22nd phewwww...what a bit of luck

 

Thanks Nellie. And to all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I am working all weekend so am pretty glad that the crops are longer growing time ... but still so many of them! I am going to mess around with Comfort Fields until nearer the end. Then ... we shall see. I don't want to use up all my harvester coupons - again!

 

Have family coming for Christmas dinner and Boxing day... so the 9 hour crop will be helpful without using the harvester..will find out tomorrow to see how that works out

 

I saved my gift of the Harvester just in case I would need it for the end of the month I am going to nuke a couple of rounds and then switch to all 1x1's Let's hope that BP and Santa will be very generous with the drops

 

Thank You Thomas for the calculations!! Big help. I was a bit late today.
My areas are full with trees, stables and 1x1 fields at the moment. Will put out refined roses tonight and see, what the drops bring.
Initial harvest at event start will show, if I leave the wild meadow with trees until friday morning or if I rip them up and put out fields.
Magic glade will get the 2x2 fields after start of event, nuking event crops with supergrow, white innocence, water and manure to get two harvests quickly.
Last sowing tomorrow will be event crops on comfort fields with all boosters possible to get them ready within 9 hours (no howie donuts or CR for that here)

Good Luck everybody

 

Many Thanks ThomasZalan for Info for this Event. In the FAQ says it set at Medium in my Analyse to should be set to Hard.

If a Farm Tick all the Right Boxes to Prepare Well for this Event. Keep Idle Time as little as possible. Use at Least 5 CAC for this event. Willing to use all 5 Fields as 1 x 1 Fields. To Grow all the needed Poinsettia within 6 Days.

Even with the Nuke of Event Crops takes time to build up event crops. if you are hindered build up event crops to seed all five fields using 1 x 1 Poinsettia then you will hit the buffers early aiming to complete this event.

It going to be a waste to use Harvester Coupons for this event if you not got any 1 Hour or 3 Hour Coupons Left this one of my dislikes of Long timed Crops when we have harvester running !!

We shall have to wait to see how this event pans out

 

Thanks a heap ThomasZalan! Your info gives this ol person much to think on while growing. Merry Christmas to you and yours! Here's hoping we'll see you back here soon.

 

Using all the fields with 1X1 and chutney it's possible to get all the plants in 2 days. The time left will be used in my usual battle for crops: carnations and/or roses. The idea of getting first or only what I really want is a great idea!

 

Have got one field of refined carnations growing in 2x2 fields ... will put them in 1x1 after i have used suzy super grow on them ...have got trees and stables out..will take the stables out ...that are now all ready waiting to be harvested when the event starts and then use 1x1 fields to grow the event crop ...to see how that goes,,,fingers crossed
And have got me boys ( Howie donuts) ....ready to be placed on the fields before i harvest
Haven't harvested my magic trees ..so i will have at least 3 drops if nothing else and have made my supply of CAC
Now it's time to get some sleep
Good Luck everyone.... Hope the drop fairy is good to us all

 

The Hardest Part of this Event will be getting Festive Stars. An Ill Prepare Farm for this Event. Farmers too busy to send Neighbours or Buddies Festive Stars as Gifts. Not Harvesting Farms when they are Idle.

Some of you might have to use Nuking Tactic of Refinement Crops to make up for shortfall of Festive Stars. This would be consuming some stock of Super Grow. As Instant Harvest of Either Roses, Carnations, Leeks or Organic Cotton.

Getting All of Poinsettia Should not be a Problem.

Good Luck Everyone

 

Am SO glad i am going shopping this morning ...my fingers want to harvest all these fields
