Carnival Queen strategy

My thoughts are with you dumbunny!

 

My final words on this poor version of Carnival Queen:

With all the eps and ccs in the world, you still won't be able to buy power feed and Golden Bananas.
.

 

BP knows that, they planned it that way. They realized all the lost sales because of the Queen's generosity, so they gave us a Pirate this time to make sure BP still gets their loot... because what do pirates do? Pirates steal

 

dumbunny - I am so sorry for your loss. My condolences to you and your family. My thoughts and prayers are with you as you go through this tough time.

 

dumbunny, I am so sorry to hear about your sister! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family! You are so right when you say "go live your life" as it can be over in a heartbeat!

The deluxe pheromones were not helpful and so I will not be growing anymore roses for them. I will mill baskets to do the mini game from the roses I have on hand but am not growing anymore roses at all and have returned to normal farming.

I agree this Carnival ride is not like the previous ones but overall, with just 36 games played, not shabby prizes. It is in alignment of a normal event. Our expectations were high from experience but taken on its own, very similar to Dice game and Ingrid (if I remember correctly). In all honesty, last Carnival Queen found this farm using just under 900 baskets which caught a lot of very nice supplies for the farm, but no way can my hands handle that again. In fact, they didn't handle it well last time. I recruited family members and bribed them with their favorite snacks and drinks I was ready for the parade float to float away to another town

I am super fatigued trying to do event crops for baskets and pheromones, catching candy, counting Olympic medals, Gift and Trade and closing extra farm. I've put in 8-14 hour crops so I can leave my farm idle

 

Finished Carnival Queen for cloud row. Now playing to get enough to buy some more shop items. I think that the event was fun and I appreciate the catches I did get. I had less before!

I am half way through the bunny love and I too have not donated any animals yet. Going to do some breeding today since Baby Boom is still on. If given a choice between Deluxe Phermones and Carnival basket - I am going to mill the baskets. I didn't see the advantage in using the deluxe pheromones.

 

Beware what you buy in the Event Shop!

XXL Toolbox - 45 BB in regular shop - 49 SC in event shop -> 1.08 SC needed per BB
Super Grow - 20 BB per 50 in regular shop - 119 SC per 50 in event shop -> 5.95 SC needed per BB
Power Feed - 20 BB per 20 in regular shop - 149 SC per 20 in event shop -> 7.45 SC needed per BB

Now I'm even more displeased about this event.

 

I think maybe the GB's and Stars may be a good buy(?) seeing how there is more trees and crops coming out again in baha I think I'm catching up opening new chambers or whatever and BAM!! they come out with more Then what, Party spins? or maybe the givers? hmmm......

 

Julie, decent buys are the Toolboxes, CAC, Free Spins and Party Tickets. When in need for GBs or Stars I would buy those too but I have far too many of them already.

All SG, SSG and PF packages are a rip off and should only be bought when one has an abundance of SC and does't want them converted into 50 EP/50TEP/70CC each.

EDIT:
Jusy keep in mind SCs (and thus all prizes) are gained for free, BBs are not. It's just the ridiculous conversion rate BP uses for the goodies which upsets me.

Good luck deciding!

 

I've done 58 games and ended up with 1058 SC. I was pretty happy with that till I read habalala's conversion chart. This is what they mean by ignorance is bliss. I haven't decided other than party spins what I will purchase with them but I certainly don't want any of them converted at the end.

 

I picked PF on both farms. Any boost replaces what I used for breeding and saves me a ton of time in the mill.

On BW, with my Star coins, I got 110 PF x 9 hours (no mill here) =990 hours/ 24 hours= 41.25 days of milling time saved.

This was by far the best choice for me. All other items come from cloud rows, crates, farmwheel spins, Fuzzles, etc.

 

I didn't do any math beforehand and bought the big offers of the PF, SSG, SG with a bunch of my Star Coins , but at least it did help recoop some of what I wasted nuking event crops and breeding a ton of my expensive colored animals trying to get those hyped up better skips from the Deluxe PHAKEmones (cough). I will go back for some CAC, Party Spins and maybe XXL Toolboxes (ty for the number crunching habalaba!) with whatever Star Coins I manage to get until the event ends. Drops are still not keeping up with my crops tho and I refuse to use up any more valuable buffs other than water and maybe more manure to speed them up at this point, so we'll see how the next 2 days go as far as baskets/games and Star Coin accumulation. I'm only averaging 3-4 games per harvest now. Booooring.

Finished the Bunny Love event on both farms . I did toss in a few animals here and there just to hurry up and get the next prize, but I think if I had been patient I probably could have done that entire event on medal drops alone. (I have no patience tho ).

 

I'm only 48 farm coins away from opening that last area of crystal falls! Very exciting! Hope to catch a few more before this is over.

 

Very sorry to hear of your loss @dumbunny Condolences to you and your family.

Got the CR early this morn. Congrats to those who have finished & good luck to those still working on it! Here's my tally for the prizes I caught:
star coin: 498
farm coin: 72
EP: 381,225
TEP: 191,385
CC: 175,025
GB: 4
floral candy basket: 11
suzy's tb: 30
PF: 36
SG: 36
SSG: 24

• I didn't tally any of the candy.
• I would definitely have liked more GBs. I caught every GB that was thrown which means not many were thrown, for me anyway. But 4 is better than none!
• Happy with the PF I received! We can always use more PF so that's excellent ~ with the added bonus of not having to do the long milling required. I love PF gifts!
• I also thought it was cool that floral baskets were thrown as well since the game kept lagging for me & I lost several floral baskets due to that.
• The CR is pointless for me right now but might be of benefit later on down the road for certain quests I may try to finish, so that's a positive.
• I spent my star coins on both normal & party spins & CAC. From those spins I got 2 great prizes: red turkey run & jackpot 200% EP Bonus!
• I still have more floral baskets to make so I'll play more mini games till the event ends & maybe get some more GBs! Fingers crossed.

 

Congrats LDC, crystal Falls is a big milestone. And at least the Pirate Monkey has been a little more generous with tossing FCs at us than she has with the other valuable goodies

Congrats to you too gardengal, glad you are raking in some goodies for your farm . You can see your totals of the 3 different candies in your barn, under the Other section. Then you can do the math conversion for the EP and CC amounts you'll be getting:

• 1 Bon Bon = 84 EP + 7 CC;
• 1 Chocolate = 88 EP + 6 CC;
• 1 Lollipop = 125 EP + 6 CC;

I'm sure we'll all get a decent chunk of both EP and CC after the event since this silly monkey has a serious sweet tooth this time around. I'd have gladly taken more frequent flying GBs and PF instead tho

 

How in the world did I end up with 7000 roses and zero baskets?

 

Ouch... clash! That's 28 more flower baskets lol, you better get crankin' on the drops

 

Is anyone getting the extra deco from star coin shop? Seems like there's no point purchasing those since we can get the decos by playing a number of games.

 

I did... by accident. Waste
