Looks good to me.

 

Farm wheel fun days is my favorite among the sale mini events

The pogo item is excellent, by far the best baha item I have seen, I love that it is 10 hours, so that I can harvest it twice a day with the 10 hour pets

 

I also Love Farm wheel fun days The pogo scarecrow is a great item to have. Love all the breeding animals, PF and SG.

But can we please remove some of the production pens or at least give us the option to trade them in on the train. I am overrun in egg farms, goat dairies, shearing sheds, etc. with yellow upgrades that I don't think I will ever have a use for.
Also if it was possible to rotate the upgraded animal stall (Red Bat Roost) to have an additional choice or two it would be nice. I now have 13 of these.

 

Also agree with what JJ said

I have 1 basic bat roost and 6 red bat roosts (one of which I build myself, was very proud now if I could just distinguish that one from the others, so that I know which one to keep when G&T comes along )

 

I love farmwheel fun days - more than happy to buy party tickets at a much more reasonable price. I would like to see the new jackpot come up more often. The prizes are generally good with the exception of mulch (don't want it in any quantity thanks) and the basic workshops - they are of no use to me at level 94 and are really not worth any BBs since they can be built for free with tools that drop for free.

 

Used 60 spins trying to get the pogo scarecrow and no luck. Ok, have to admit that I'm not the luckiest person in the world, but smth must have been changed in the system as during all previous farm wheel fun days I was able to get the new top prize (((

 

Usually I am not lucky and things don't come to me the easy way, only this time, my first party spin and I got pogo from the first try, and I like it, it is very nice to have, I like the farm wheel it is a part of my daily routine, and it is the first thing I do every morning when I log on, it is nice to start your farm day feeling that you are lucky by winning something new, the event is one of my favorites but my remarks are on the wheel itself, since the last adjustment, the time of the spins became very short that sometime can't use the stop button, and for the rewards, there is a very good rewards that they are very hard to get, and a lot of useless rewards that have to be changed, like the turbo mulch which the wheel tends to stop at these most of the times, and the Catapala trees and the yellow stalls and workshops, one final note, it happens that certain type of gifts are repeated 2 or 3 times at the same spin and some times 4, which makes the rewards less attractive, if this can be worked out definitely the wheel is going to be more attractive.

 

I have bought party packs in the past and enjoyed them. However, I have to say I am continuing with just free playing for now. a party day every 4-6 months is one thing, one every month is just too much.

Its fun to win, but when they become a regular occurrence, its no longer special or quite so fun.

 

I used 100 and only won two pogo scarecrows

 

Congratulations Solotime! As for me 70+ still no pogo(

 

EDIT: I goofed, forget the part in italics, it was wrong. I am leaving it to make clear what mistake I made.
Having the pogo be a random result not always obtained is one thing.. that is how the wheel works. However, to limit the time its available and then not even put it on everyone's wheel, is, well.... just one for example of "BP really doesn't care about fair play".

The pogo only appeared once in the past 3 days on my wheel. The cost of instantly getting another choice is 4BB.. and no guarantee I would even get a wheel with a pogo appearing, never mind actually win one. So much for the fun event for all


EDIT: Mea culpa, I made a mistake -- Apparently Pogo is not limited in time. Like other special items, it will be around for a time being.

Ironically, right after I posted that, pogo did appear for me 3 times in a row. I even won one. I have no problem with the general win frequency. (Others have reported low frequencies of wins.) I can say it takes a LOT of repetitions to really assess.... even a hundred tries without a win is not necessarily an indication that the statistics are skewed/not random. My issue was just that it did not seem even a chance was appearing for a short duration item. I was wrong, and admit it.

Overall, sad. More and more sure I am making the right decision to not spend more real money here.

I am, sadly, still not entirely happy. This was actually a small matter, and I was wrong to add this to my list. (again, just to clarify my big gripe is the mill/row issue and its about how it was handled, more than the workings themselves, Beyond that, I dislike the move toward either spending too much time or too much money or both to keep moving ahead in the game)

But, enough of the complaints.

And, again, apologies to teddy and the rest for having to translate negative messages. You are helping to make this forum reasonable.

 

I really like farm wheel fun days! It's fun to spin and hope for a good prize and also gives immediate gratification unlike mystery stables and trees where you have to wait.

It is disappointing though that when it includes a new prize as part of the event that the new prize rarely appears. Pogo has been suspiciously absent from my wheel. I'm getting lots of Capt Scarecrow (won 5) and the flowers but in over 50 spins Pogo has be there 4-5 times.

I suggest when you launch a new prize as part of an event it should be there at least 50% of the time. Hitting the jackpot is infrequent enough to provide the challenge but at least if Pogo was at the top I would feel I had a chance. I'm almost afraid to spin anymore in case I get another Scarecrow and just bought a smaller pack of tickets than planned to control my urge to keep spinning.

 

pogo is not available only for a limited time All the previous jackpot items have stayed on the wheel after the farm wheel fun days, they just appear more often during the mini-event

 

OK

Edited my post.

 

First off, thanks for offering Party Win spins as a reward in the Czech event. I've only done two so far, and I did get the jackpot on the second one! I'm very happy with my new and only scarecrow.

On the other hand, I wouldn't mind spending some BBs on this during the sales - if the prizes were worthwhile. A couple turbo mulch are not worth a single BB, let alone multiple. A cow dairy is worthless, even if it is yellow, as are egg farms or goat dairies. Even if you don't have a tree for those, you can sell the animals needed for far more than the cost of the product. And it's not like we can recycle these anywhere.

Make the prizes worth the expense and you'll have a lot more people buying tickets. As it is, the only time I use the party wheel is when I win tickets through a quest or event, and I don't see that changing until the prize structure improves.

ETA - abubadi66, unless they changed the game mechanics recently, the stop button is for looks only. The prize you win is determined randomly before the wheel even starts. It doesn't matter when you hit it.

 

Hi!

I disagree. I can consistently get the prize I want by clicking the stop button at the right time on the normal wheel (but I can't on the party wheel), though it did take a few weeks of practice to find the "sweet spot". However, I don't usually bother because I just run it when I'm due to get Fuzzles's daily gift (I hate wasting free stuff due to no inventory space), and the prizes aren't usually good enough to care.

When I go to the party wheel and it says I have 2 chances to win turbo mulch and one chance to win lavender jam why on earth would I spend BB's to win those prizes?

I don't have any of the delightful flowers for cloud row. I would love to win one. But spend 6 BB's and get 4 turbo mulch or a lavender jam? Come ON...

Please take the crap out of the possibilities and then I will be happy [still hate the secrecy over the problems with the German Mods... but at least BP is giving us the stars back for events] to give it a try.
To put it more plainly.... everything on the wheel should be worth at least 6 BB's
I would also like 0 supergrows on the wheel....
If your going to give us trees... Please don't give us xxl orange/cherry trees [which cost 170 BB's in the store] Please give us chestnuts, ginko, magnolia, or gold leaf [all less then 100 BB's]
Yes I realize that this will negatively affect the market for people that bought these trees... I don't know... All I know is I gambled and won a wonderful wolf den with rare stables and now lots and lots and lots of people will have wolf dens... which will crash the market on wolves.... Its the nature of the game. I don't feel bad about it... I just have to find other ways to make money

The party wheel should be fun I would buy party tickets for a wheel that looked like this: 4 chances to win 4 different flowers, a green mateato, 5 stars, 5 GB's .... I do like the harvest helper coupons those are good stuff like that

 

Usually love the farm wheel, but I'm sticking to my guns and NOT spending any real money anymore until things change. NO Sale here.

 

I like farm wheel fun days!! It have nice awards and i really want to win singing flowers and pogo i must admit i did use 10 tickets and didnt get any good reward so i am little sad
