Initial reaction is that I like the new rating system that shows both the side bar and completion ratings.

2nd look: There is a delay with throwing the sticky balls (even after game has been refreshed, etc.). I guess you have to take this into consideration and aim at a different spot instead of at the target.

 

Good event. The crop is a little boring, but not to complain about. Again, there are more levels than can reasonably be completed by most people, but this time, there was a note to that effect, so good job. Having new pens is always a good reward, and in this case, there were some other things that are hard to obtain, available at the end of the challenge, for those who really want to try. I do not like getting the second set of giver items. What am I to do with them? I like when we have the OPTION to get multiples of the givers, if they are cute or we like them - but I don't like getting a second copy instead of a different prize. I like the mechanism, it's new and interesting. Difficult but not impossible - that is good. So, overall, pleased with this event.

I enjoy when events only use half the farm. But instead of nearly always being Main Farm, can we have them be maybe one Main field and one Baha field? Because we get all this time to farm on Baha - and I understand, not everyone has all of Baha open so in the interest of fairness, having Baha centered events can be unfair - but I have a surplus of everything on Baha, and a deficit of many things on the Main, because we don't get as many breaks on the Main fields. Even, have the events only using two Main fields so the third was available for farming...

 

Nice event. I like the idea of the two bars. It means that the stalk row is obtainable and that if you are capable of doing more you can continue to get great prizes. The wheel was a bit glitchy and tended to give a jump every now and then that could have an impact on your throw but that is a small thing considering that the actual event itself I thought was extremely well done. No way am I going to get all the prizes, but then I'm a reasonably small farm and I don't expect to, but I have managed to get the stalk row and I'm on level 50 on the other bar so that anything that I obtain now will be a very much appreciated extra ! More like this please. I am one happy bunny with this event .

 

This event had all the qualities to rank it as all time top event but NOT because for one little tiny thing - I always get a U-shaped drop rate but this time I got only the first half of the U, continously downhill. Could do four rounds f the minievent in the beginning and only one to two now in the end. Will probably have all the event crop for all 100 prices but because of the exceptional droprate at the end I probably will miss the 97, a stable I don't have an not know how to get. I am not very axcious to buy a lot of drops for far more BBs than you can win in the last price or can calculate the two stables are worth .... because of that I can only vote thumb down (Wonder if BP was trying to fool at least me ....)
Learned perfectly how to make 22 points/game and also emptied my party spin stock totally (at least 80 during the event) but never won the valuable 100 % or the +1 or +2 .

 

Game is a little laggy which makes it challenging to land on the pretzels. i've managed most times, but am now consistently 2 points behind the next level thanks to a round of missing a pretzel.

Crop time is too long for the amount we have to grow. Many players won't have all the supergrow, SSG, buffs etc. to achieve the ultimate prize, or even get close. Yet every event seems to require that they do. I am all for challenging events that cater to more advanced players, but it's not fair that that is ALL you offer, when many players aren't at that level. If you want to retain players, create events that are inclusive.

 

I liked this event a lot, and finished all of the steps.
- The minigame was difficult enough that you had to keep focused, without being too hard to get top marks on.
- I liked the 'lag' that other people are complaining about; I'm pretty sure it was part of the game and it made it more difficult/interesting.
- There were about the right number of minigames that you had to play. Too many can make even the best minigame boring.
- It's really nice to have a properly stretching event once in a while, and it was great that this was inclusive to lower level players too. Most players could get the cloud row and everyone had something juicy to aim for.

Only negative point is that I have far more things I want to grow on my main fields and we've had a run of events on main fields only. More Baha events please (or 1-2 fields from the mainland and 1-2 from Baha as someone else already suggested)

 

Greetings lovely farmers,
