    Hopefully will be trouble free.

    To me seems newer players have same oppotunity to finish event as more experienced players, a big plus

    750 crop and 75 gloves to mill? drop rate and growing will be difficult as usual or maybe we will be surprised on this one.

    Love the format on this one - something new and I always love puzzle type things. That there is no timer on this makes it fun and stress free. BUT - 750 event crop for ONE go? That is a little strenuous. For anyone trying to do this with 2x2 and no CAC, it would take the whole event just to get two gloves made!

    The concept of the mini-game is fun, and at first I was excited to get going on this and play play play... but the drop rate on the event crop leaves a lot to be desired. I don't see how it can be rated easy, seems like lower level farmers still working on upping their trophies/LL Rune will struggle just to play the 20 games and get the givers and cloud row.

    Once again I am not at all a fan of the long milling time. It doesn't seem that you guys even read all the feedback complaints about having to use our already overloaded mills for events.

    Faster paced events keep us much more entertained... but with the drop and crop requirement per game being so high for this event, this is turning into a snore-fest already, at just 16 hours in :sleepy:.

    Hmmmm before event started I was optimistic that lower level farmers will be able to complete event Im not so sure now with the terrible drops.
    Which part of their FAQs do BP not understand when it says drop rate will be higher for this event. Is that a higher drop rate in relation to forthcoming events as they are going to reduce them.
    Mini event is only good part of this event even though im useless at it, time for pen and paper as others are doing

    750 crops for one glove is a joke.

    I like this event, though I agree with the other comments: I would like a lesser number of crops and the promised higher rate of drops so we can play more games. :music:

    I do find the glitch where the "winning score" banner stays on the screen a little irritating but we only need to refresh to continue and it's nothing that stops me playing for long. This was mentioned in technical problems so I know that the devs are aware. It hasn't happened enough to be really annoying. :oops:

    I like the mini game and am happy that it isn't timed (even though I didn't realise at first), it means that we can note where the characters (or backgrounds) are if we wish without losing valuable points. :p
    The prizes are okay but I would like the number of Star Coins required for them to be a little lower - of course! :D
    As always, though it should always be said, the graphics are gorgeous! Love Cupig! :inlove:

    Edit: I forgot to say that I love the Foxgloves (Digitalis) too ... maybe they will stay in the game? :music:

    The game is fine, the number of crops required to mill, too many. And with all the new quests, too much. The graphics are great as always, but the satisfaction of finishing the events is, again, on the decline, for me. The effort needed to finish the events is again beginning to not be worth the rewards.

    In addition, we shouldn't have to shut down to continue playing the event. Also check what is happening with the flash plug in disconnecting from time to time. This has only been happening since you starting converting the platform (at least for me).

    BP seriously needs to up the number of drops we can get from fields. I use CAC and from 3 fields of event crops I got 48 drops, not nearly enough to make even one special glove. :(
    Don't be so mean BP. >:(

    I think it very unfair to say or misleading us or even being dishonest to us Fellow farmers whom play and enjoy Farmerama. That this event is set as EASY, with three fields of Foxgloves using 1x1 and CAC has two be harvested twice to be able to gain enough fingerless gloves to be able to mill 1 special glove.

    It is getting very silly to be able to make only 2 or if lucky 3 special gloves within 24 hours. I personally think it is too high amount of 750 Fox gloves and 70 fingerless gloves to mill 1 special glove. >:(:cry:

    It even harder for Newbie farmers to be able to Mill at least 2 special gloves per 24 Hours...Why Why Why it is set as Easy.

    Even said the Drop rate of Fingerless gloves it set to high as yet it is taking forever to get all the needed fingerless gloves that are needed to complete this event.

    It has started to become repetitive and boring to gain star coins to buy things from the store. In terms of prizes that can be more useful to us, like perhaps sought after older givers, bundles of wood, older rare trees, older rare stables or stuff that can helps us with quests etc :p

    I'm torn now as to how many crops I can harvest without manure, as I cant keep stalls out any longer (the 750-1 glove recipe) or get my husbands credit card out while hes sleeping...

    Best post ever purplebeet xDxDxDxDxDI almost fell off my chair at work:p:p

    Game concept and graphics are nicely done. Just wish BP would throw that much enthusiasm into game strategy:sleepy:Requirements are just too high for me this time round. I really do have the greatset boss ever....she doesn't mind if I play while at work. HOWEVER, I still have to work and have managed 7 gloves thus far. 20 seems like a rather big streeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetch. Not impressed with the CR. Those crates are not random....they are set with code so the minimum reward is given 999 times out of 1000 (just as an example). A lot of work is required for measley rewards:cry: Not pulling out my credit card for this one-.-

    Haven't been getting the high drop rate specified in the FAQ for the event.

    I have my event crops in inventory just waiting to get enough drops to mill another glove.

    I wouldn't complain about the drop rate because it looks like I have time to finish the event but BP did state that it would be high so what gives?

    UPDATE: I have my last glove milling to get the CR. I won't go for the extras because of the drop rate -- will spend the time planting crops to work on some quests. When saying that the drop rate will be high that should mean that everyone will get plenty of drops for the event taking into consideration how many are needed to mill an item. I think a high drop rate for an event would mean that I would have all the necessary drops and just waiting on event crops to harvest but that was not the case. Some said that trees provided good results -- if the drop rate was high for trees only then this should have been stated in the FAQ.

    Prizes were good -- got some PF for the upcoming breeding event. The match game itself was easy to understand and it helped that the Hamster (or was it a Chipmunk) always stayed in the bottom right corner.

    The drop rate is fine but 70 drops required for a glove is way too much. As stated above, growing extra long timed crops to gather more drops is needed, and quite a lot too. Easy? .. hmmm, definately not for players under level 80.

    The 16 tile memory board is too small to make the mini game a challenge, despite the 2 given play options.
    A larger board filled with characters and farm goodies to match (and at the end of game an instant reward of those) would've provided way more fun.

    Very disappointing. I was looking forward to the mini game, but I certainly don't get much of a chance to with obsene amounts forboth event crop and drops! same old story of inadequate drops seems to be a ploy to get money from players. The more you use tactics like this, the less I spend and the less I play. ={
