    I agree! Random should not mean unfair! This farm certainly seems to be on the low side. Only made it to 88/125 =(

    Disappointed about not getting cloud row, but NOT spending real money to make it!

    Not a bad event mechanic, congrats to all those who participated! I was no near the row either, but i started late and i did not spend that much time with the event anyway. The prizes that i got from the bats were mainly EP and CC, but I would like, however, to see the harvester time rewarded as a coupon instead of time added right away, as the ones i won were wasted.

    I totally agree with SylvanasW. I too couldn't spend several days for the event as I was busy with Real life work. The event was good. But rewards were mostly CCs & EPs. Other reward items could have been frequently rewarded. It would have been more exciting.

    I truly desire to have the monkey Queen Event once again :inlove: It will be more exciting and enjoyable. More like a carnival fest.

    I'm a bit conflicted about this event. I work full time but usually with a bit of effort I can finish a moderate labelled event fairly easily but I went right down to the wire on this one, had to work much harder & even then had to buy a few of the drop items to actually finish. I did like the fact that we didn't have to grow that much of the crop so left plenty of time for me to grow normal MM crops but with the longest crop being only 8hrs even after BP adjusted the drop rate it wasn't that good. I liked the little bats & I did seem to luck out with rewards & for once seemed to get a fairly good balance of EP, TEP & CCs to other goodies. I would however have liked the harvester rewards as coupons rather than immediate activations as most times that was wasted for me.

    Overall a nice event but the low drop rate spoiled it a bit for me (too stressful).

    Happy Farming :inlove:

    Most of what I think is already said.

    I like this kind of event.
    But the milling time was kind of long. The bats let me wait, so sometime I checked to see if I had "checked" them to appear. ( Way slower than on similar events.) And maybe It was just me. But the bats should be bigger. Often enough I "super growed" the fields next to them while being to fast.
    I love the less clicking since the trunks opened by them self.
    I got my used TB returned as rewards and even got some CAC and 1 or 2 golden bananas. The harvesters should have been coupons. Especially the 1 hour ones. They get used if I am really in a hurry just for change of crops.

    i liked this event. it was a good theme and the event crops didn't take too long. the prizes were also good. the drop rate wasn't good at all. i also wish that we would have some extra time on the moonlight field. every time we get more than 24 hours for the moonlight mania there is an event that i feel i must try to win. i don't get time to complete the farmers quest that way though. i'm never going to get finished with any of them at this rate.

    I liked this event. I like getting the items from the bats and waiting to see what I got. However, the abysmal drop rate at the start meant that because I work and am unable to start and finish the event with the event times due to my time zones I was the grand total of 8 bats short of the completing event. This means I now have 3 useless givers in my inventory as I have no room for them and I don't like 24hr givers. This one should have been labeled hard instead of medium.
    I do appreciate the change to the drops, but for me it was just too late.

    Oh, where to begin. First, the cons. Drop rate. Even when it was fixed, it was still way too low. I farmed my hind end off, and still had to buy the last few blood sauces. That was rough on my BB's. Next, Harvester Coupons. Most of us won them last thing before quitting for the night, and lost their benefit immediately. Also, if you won a harvester function and could use it, you'd have to stop feeding bats because if you won another one, it ran at the same time. COUPONS. Please. Third, there was a very high rate of CC/EP/TEP rewards, double or triple the chances of any of the others. I will never be disappointed by more TEP, but constantly getting regular EP/CC was disappointing, and after a while, disheartening. Lastly, milling time for the ears was a bit long. Now for the pros: Fun event, cute bats, nice way of getting rewards which eliminated excessive clicking. It was very helpful that the kebabs could be milled at both the Main and the Baha mills. Was very happy at the respawn rate of the bats, and the fact that you could turn them off. I liked that you could see your progress at a glance. It would have been nice to see on the progress bar a number on each of the presents, so you could easily tell how many kebabs total you needed to get each giver without having to go to the FAQ's. Thank you for putting some really great items in the prizes. Golden Bananas, CAC, Trees and Stables (though I would have liked to have two different collections of each as a possibility, so I would have a better chance of scoring some older vintage trees), Power Feed, really, the prize list contained almost everything one could desire, which I think is why so many people stuck with it after all that trouble with the drop rate. In conclusion, even though I was tearing my hair out, the event was overall beneficial, and I would love to see it again, with some tweaks.
