Easy as Pie

Players will need to mill Apple Pies or Onion Quiches to feed Porky or Bertha in this new version of the spawning characters' event.

Event crop:	Event drop:	Mill item 1:	Mill item 2:
Salt Flower Time: 4 hours Gives (2x2): 160 EP Plantable on the Main field and Green Meadow only!	Pie Pan You will get these drops when harvesting your main field and green meadow when harvesting your crops and trees only!	Apple Pie Ingredients: 328 x Salt Flowers, 16 x Pie Pans Time: 15 seconds can be produced in the main and tropical mills - Events feed tab!	Onion Quiche Ingredients: 656 x Salt Flowers, 32 x Pie Pans Time: 15 seconds can be produced in the main and tropical mills - Events feed tab!

Each Apple Pie fed to the Porky Character rewards 1 x step on the progression bar!
Each Onion Quiche fed to the Bertha Character rewards 2 x steps on the progression bar!

One spawning character will alternate each day until the last day of the event where both characters will show up.

	Appearing days:	Random prizes:
Porky:	7th May (14:00 - 23:59 CEST) 9th May (00:00 - 23:59 CEST) 11th May (00:00 - 23:59 CEST) 13th May (00:00 - 22:00 CEST)
Bertha:	8th May (00:00 - 23:59 CEST) 10th May (00:00 - 23:59 CEST) 12th May (00:00 - 23:59 CEST) 13th May (00:00 - 22:00 CEST)

An Event Market will let players exchange Gear Coins or Star Coins for other goodies, but they are not needed to complete the event.

The milling of either the Apple Pie or Onion Quiche will determine which ramdom prize players will get. The only difference is that the Onion Quiche costs twice as much event crops and drops but at the same time counts as two feedings: this means that the total amount of event crops and drops needed will be the same no matter what players chose to feed the critters.

To get the cloud row + givers 100 feeds in total	To complete the event 113 feeds in total
32800 Salt Flowers 1600 Pie Pans Mill option 1: 100 Apple Pies Or Mill option 2: 50 Onion Quiches Or Mill option 3: a mix of both Apple Pie & Onion Quiche	37064 Salt Flowers 1808 Pie Pans Mill option 1: 113 Apple Pies Or Mill option 2: 56 Onion Quiches +1 Apple Pie Or Mill option 3: a mix of both Apple Pie & Onion Quiche

Good luck everyone!

 

You continue to be amazing. Thank you.

 

Genuinely, you never cease to amaze me! Thank you, kind farmer.

 

The event is Bad.
Worst Event Ever!
I'll ignore it.
​

 

Thanks Nordais, for doing the sums.

I will sow the seeds, collect the drops and see how I go, maybe doing the feeding on a day when I don't have much going on - or if the weather is bad!
Good luck all!

 

Thank you Nordais, for always coming here to strategy and starting us all off on doing these events!
And for crunching the numbers I will try to do the whole 113 by feeding "Porky" on the 7th,9th,11th and 13th!
Good luck everyone I hope we all reach our goals!

 

Thank you Nordais. It always seems clearer once you have set it out for us. I will give it a go but my eldest son is visiting from tomorrow over the weekend so may not have much playing time, then dentist on Tuesday. I will have to get organised and spend some money to get started and fingers crossed the windmill is kind to me. Good luck everyone and busy farming.

 

Thank you Nordais...

 

Thank you very much, Nordais!
Last year, i did this event twice because i didn't notice i needed star coins for the things in the shop

Wish everyone the best of luck!

 

Thank you, Nordais, you are very much appreciated and admired for all your hard work and being a kind fellow farmer!
I like this type of event and will do it.
Overall, I play most events, though not like them all equally well. Today, e.g. I stopped playing Renzo's balloon game. Like the game, but not that I had some 720 points yesterday, played a few more games today and ended up with some 290! Won some nice prices in the past, but cannot see the fun of it today.

Wishing everyone fun and luck with tomorrow's event.

 

Thanks so much Northy. Even though I'm skipping this and most events atm as RL continues to require my attention, I do enjoy reading your charts. It's truly a labour of love on your part and much appreciated by your fellow farmers. Sending warm greetings to everyone from this side of the pond. And my surprise this morning when completing a city task in EV - I leveled up and was rewarded with an Alpine MS row! Going now to check it out.

PS please do NOT send me any drops and good luck to all those taking on this event.

 

This time around you don't need to worry about star coins or gear coins for that matter!

Congrats on the new EV level, it should be the one helping with tree fruits production! Yay!

Where did the celery go? Did you wize up and start eating it?!?

 

I'm back! We had a very nice time in CdA! If you follow me on Facebook, I posted a picture of my in-laws on their anniversary. We try to go every year for their anniversary - 69 years this time around. I think this trip was my MIL's goal for getting well. So she made it, had a good time and now she has to set a new goal. I'm pretty sure that one is returning to CdA in September or October.

Okay, I farmed a little while I was there - not much, though. But, I did prep my fields for this event yesterday morning. I'll try to remember to send drops around.

Time to bake and serve pies! Here we go!

And, Northy, THANKS for starting the strategy thread and drilling down on the FAQ! You rock!

 

Way to got MIL and FIL of PM23! We celebrate 30 years tomorrow though we have been together 52 years! But 69 years, now that is an achievement.

 

I saw some celery in the supermarket recently and took my own advice. It did look fresh, though....​

 

Thank you Nordais, your hard work helps us determine what effort we will put into the event. Looks like minimal for me- far, far too many crops needed for me to get to the CR so I will just do what I can.
