    Really loved this event!!! Love the new Neon stables!! Putting the stables in the middle made it possible for all players to receive them.
    Nice rewards of GB's, CC's and EP's. I know it has made my baby farm level up very fast :inlove:

    I struggled to get all 3 stables and will stop now because my barn/CC are exhausted so I will not go for the CR, however, the prizes getting to the stables are very good. Well done BP for starting to get the balance right for ALL players to have a good chance of getting what they want

    Great job with the neon pens. I like that they produce 4 animals thus saving space. My personal favorite is the goat pen, fantastic!

    I loved this event! I'm hoping there will be more neon stables to come as they are just fantastic. :inlove:

    Personally I like the solution of having an early short BBD to be followed by the longer traditional one. If this is the answer to the negative feedback of players disliking the wait time from event start to the weekend BBD it's a good one. I liked the delivery mechanism and specifically the warning of over paying. For those of us less mathematically inclined it was a big help and certainly saved me from donating too much.

    I really liked the stables being in the 3rd spot, just seemed to really make it fair for all farmers to be able to get them. All the prizes were really good but wow thanks for the golden bananas and the EP givers are very cute. I especially like the goat on the trampoline. Finally thank you for making the cloud row the final option on it's own. I really liked having the option of going for it or not without having to miss out on something else if I didn't get it.

    All in all just a great event that was super fun and again the stables are just wicked cool! Thanks BP. :D

    This event has something for everybody. My main farm managed virtually from existing stock, my baby farm is still plodding on. Both were able to get the Neon Stables without resorting to spending every CC I had. I chose/choose to finish the event (of course) on both farms. I can finish on Chevrefeuille with about a day to spare but, if there is a BB weekend, I may do a bit of breeding to speed things along. :music:

    So, as said, something for everyone:

    Shiny prizes achievable to all, even newer players.
    Chance to make CCs on the market as everyone has or can raise chickens, rabbits and/or goats.
    Breeding is involved - most players love breeding and especially Baby Boom. :D

    I too wonder what was the thinking behind the short BB which probably excluded the majority of players (including me) but as it was an extra (I hope) it didn't really bother me so much. Just curious as to the purpose. :eek:

    All in all, agree with the farmer who gave this event 11/10! xD

    Thank you BP for the extended BB event. I really appreciate it. I hereby retract my earlier criticism and, with a pinch of salt and a dash of pepper, politely chew and swallow those words of criticism.

    Loved the neon stables event! I really hope you introduce neon stables for all of the other breeding animals as this would help solve some of the lack of space issues. One stable taking the place of 4 really helps. I also really liked that you could get the stable midway thru the event and that the cloud row was the top prize. You could earn the stable first, and if you had the animals/power feed proceed on to get the cloud row. Again I really hope to see another event like this one for other animals!!!

    It looks like I'm about the only person who didn't really enjoy this event (apart from oldman49 above who seems to have an issue with the market).
    The positives: The neon stables appearing early in the stages and the golden bananas as prizes
    The negatives: The small EP/CC benefit receivable from the cloud row seems way out of line with the huge amount of animals needed for the event giver items and the cloud row. I always aim for the cloud row in events but not this time.

    I love the stables, and the space they save. That alone was worth a lot I would say. (and I'm partial to all things new,:p).
    Thank you for the extended BB also! As illy said, "something for everyone".

    PRO:
    I loved this event and it's nice to see an event where lower levels had a chance to get the pens even if the cloud row was out of bounds.
    The goat pen is fantastic.
    Cloud Row - To anyone that thinks this was a so-so row. I think this is a great row and ANY 12 hour or under cloud row is something to aim high for, just wait until you hit level 90 and see your EP requirement for that level, you'll change you mind.

    CON: In the past a Neon pen would be very hard but at least it would be attainable with skips during a BB.
    Now, Baby Boom's are VERY stingy with skips and high level breeding animals are absurdly expensive in my market so it's going to be very, very hard to build a Neon Pen, too hard to be worth it.
    The past few months of stingy skips have caused breeding animals in my market to double or triple, in some cases animals are 10 times what they used to be.
    I would probably just stick with Pink pens.

    I loved the Neon Stable Event Very Much as They were must have Stables for My Farm as They give better rewards than the pink pens as for me it is very very hard to make a pink pen as i need breeding animals to finish of Breeding Quests and other quests

    Yes I agree to becoming hard to obtain such a high level stable that can be obtain with ease with this Event as we seem to not get good skips during breeding events like we use too

    I too would love another Neon Stable Event as this Event has rewarded me with loads of CC of Selling Stuff in the Markets i had surplus off

    It was also lovely to give us two BBD Events for this Event too also love the other rewards from completing this quest too as in goes in favour to those who have be hoarding Chickens,Rabbits and Goat plus these Breeding Animals too.

    With The Proceeds I made during this Event of CC it had Actually Helped me made some progress of completing some breeding quests that is hard and expensive to do so Overall Very Happy with this Event xD

    I like the neon stables .. think they look cool. i like they give 4 animals and that you could get them in this event w/o having to do the whole event.
    However i do think that the animal requirements for the whole event were way high and i really really dislike / hate that with the high EV requirement amount for animals that you loose the leftover EV if you dont have exactly the right amount EV requested. I was unable to get the exact amount requested every step for all three animals. So i lost EV and feel like i lost precious animals. Please DO NOT do this again. I also think that skips were crappy and due to the timing and duration of the first BBD, i like most in the US, were unable to play or benefit from the first BBD.

    Fantastic Event with great rewards and easy to complete with stock already in the barn. The Neon stables are cool but I wish the chicken coop had been reinvented a little like the other 2 for this event.
    I though that all levels were worth completing as it's a great cloud row that can be harvested twice a day, I like rows with 10-12 hour cool down time.

    As for the first BB, how did everyone in the US miss this? It started early in the AM not in the middle of the night.

    Well I got all 3 neon stables but couldn't get the final prize (cloud row). Just couldn't produce or buy enough power feed for breeding. Some say they calculated with regular animals but even so no matter which way I went I wouldn't have enough. Bad part is that halfway through the event it looked like I would be able to complete with time to spare causing me to make the mistake of furnishing some of the requirements before I had the full amount for all three. Inventory depleted now so I have to work on restocking and hopefully they won't have a good timed event until this is done. Also used my stock that I was working on for the other Breeding Quests and have to restock that.

    I actually prefer the Glowworm stable to the neon stables. If all fields end up with Neon we may all end up blinded. An entire field of neon stables would probably be hard to look at.

    Good event I just wish I hadn't of made the stupid mistakes that I did.

    Like they said in This Is Spinal Tap... This one goes to 11
    I had plenty of stock from previous BBDs and was able to painlessly complete this adventure and then have a semi-successful breeding session to re-stock.
