That's a lot of work for the players who want to do this! Good luck all!

EDIT: changed that amount of Fruit Syrups after update of the FAQ

EDIT 2: Numbers have been updated with new FAQ

 

Wow! Thanks so much, Northy. Really appreciate you making such detailed and clear charts. I always find them very helpful.
As you say, it is indeed, a lot of work.

I shall skip this event; atm, more focus is needed for RL things and I just go to the game to relax and do basics.

I will send drop items to neighbors who indicate they are taking on the challenge, and ask that no one send me drop items - rather please pass on to event participants.

Wishing everyone success and happy farming!

 

Am I in or am I out? I'm not sure at the moment. CR is fairly meh considering the 64 hour cooldown time. I have another very busy day in RL, so I'll have to figure it out this evening.

 

Thanks for the numbers and the detailed charts. Perfect, by the way
I was anxious to see your numbers, Nordais, because I was afraid they were the same as mine. Well... They are

I'm still undecided if it's worth all the work. Just in case, thou, I left the farm and baha prepared and tomorrow I'll see.

Good luck to the braves who will attemp and to everyone else!

 

Thanks for doing the numbers, Nordais, always nice to see them laid out so neatly.

These days, I look at the prizes before I decide whether I will participate. I do like to see other farmers' take on the difficulty of an event and also to see if I have missed something (like an attractive prize!). I see that this is a difficult event and prizes are as I first thought so I will sit back and watch my SG and SSG piles mount while waiting for the next event!
Good luck to anyone going for it!

 

Wishing all the best if you do the event. I'm sitting this one out.

 

I've decided to prep the three main farms for this event, but I'm still not sure if any of them are doing it. I might do this one on this farm and SL's and let dumbunny's farm recoup from the carnival queen. That farm squeaked out the CR this morning, but is now low on green goo and propellors.

I'll see how I feel about the whole thing in the morning.

 

Thank you very much Northy. The reward is nice. The warehouse requests are in English and I don't know them. The converter does not translate fully. I am grateful to you. Thank

 

The starting time of the event was pushed back by 4 hours, also there will be a modified FAQ for the event due to negative feedbacks.

 

of course I noticed the delay AFTER harvesting the preparation crops

could there be an announcement first thing if something gets postponed when you log in?

 

The changes posted for the revised event requirements/rewards are not enough to make me change my mind. Still skipping this event.

 

After a lot of thought, I too will give this a miss. Please will my neighbours send drop items to others.

 

Numbers have been updated in my first post, I don't see why these changes would make people want to do this event after all....

 

ooh, so mediocre. I was on the fence yesterday. I'm still on the fence today, and I'm starting to fall off the fence.

I think I'm sitting this one out altogether after all. Prizes aren't worth the expenditure of precious resources.

 

I agree with others, the rewards are very mediocre to down right laughable for a great deal of event harvesting. I will be sitting this one out and continue on a couple of targeted FSQs.

 

What on earth?

Before, in this type of event, you had to play all the way to the end, you barely managed to acquire Star Coins with that one Piccolo Box and you won't win any other prizes...

Now then as a prize one Piccolo for 500 SC and a total pot of more than 2300 SC... You never know what to buy as prizes.

Drops seem to come in large quantities, more than 180 per area and Bahamarama areas 3 pieces can be played all the time only with the idea of drops when not growing plants Bahamarama!

 

OK guys I need help. My brain is absolutely not working today. Just came back from vacation in the hot spots to frozen land... and my brain must have got frozen too.

I just would like to get Tower of Candy. It says I need to finish 6 games to get it. What does it mean? With all this 3 totems, 8 layers what is a game?

 

1 game = 1 totem

You'll need to do the first three layers.

 

Thanks Nordais. I'll take it easy (no SG, SSG) and see if I'll get it.

 

I am exhausted, my barns are exhausted. I think I'll take a break.
