There are a lot of positive things I could say about this event
- early announcement which gave us time to prepare
- well balanced (proportional) drop rate, although we had 3 things to collect
- wonder trees and stables as rewards (always welcome)
- good amount of BEP for finishing levels
- 80h of machinery
...

Now, with only one more harvest, I'll finish it all, but I guess this will be the first time to win cloud row, but deliberately omit to put deco items on it. The "bonus" it gives is just too .... weak.
I don't see the benefit of it right now. Movie Mice gives 2.600 CC, and I value that higher, then putting it on a row.
Maybe with Coral Reef, those +5% of drop rate will have some meaning, but for now, I will use items separately.

 

I like the event - plenty of notice and plenty of time, prizes are good although not sure about the cloud row. The need for breeding animals without a BB day isn't particularly nice so maybe hints could be given to our grapevines about the animals that may be needed for forthcoming events during BB days?

 

The event itself, including the announcement and FAQ, came along smoothly....except for the small mishap with the magic trees not giving event items, everything was running good. The requirements were ok, only thing that hurt a bit were the breeding animal requirements.....especially with the run and panic on the market after the FAQ came out.
I only hope that now that the Cloud Rows are more regular reward items, that there soon will be some improvements on the Bean Stalk (Search/Sorting Function and Harvester).
All in all, a big thumbs up for the event.

P.S. Now the Baha Feed Mill is running to turn the leftovers into something more profitable for the after event exchange.....

 

the rewards for "soup and friends" are much better. So I skipped the steps requiring the breeding fish and the ostrich one. I only breed during baby boom and the power feed are too precious to be wasted. Unless the rewards are exceptional I do not do breeding animals quests. clouds row would be better if they were not themed.

 

The event itself is "so-so". I like the party tickets and wonder stables, but I don't have either aloe or Hibiscus opened, so I am going to be left with an empty, useless cloud row.

The worst part, however, is that this is just one of WAY too many events happening too close together. This was supposed to be a fun, relaxing game. All these events are turning it into work. I did buy some BP, against my better judgement, but even so, its never "enough".

I like to increase, build, but when you offer so very many boosts, they are no longer special items, but rather things that wind up being critical to advancing.

 

There was enough time to grow the event crop but I didn't like that we had to deliver breeding animals. A lot of events now need breeding animals to be completed.
The rewards are good(PF, BEP) but I am very disappointed from the mystery seedlings results.
I hope I have better luck in the wonder stables...

 

I like the rewards - a relaxing one for me. Plenty of time and advance notice given of the requirements allowed ample planning for growing. I am not a fan of the requirement for breeding animals, if this is happening it should be coupled with a Baby Boom as the PF requirement is just too high especially with the quantities required. I feel sorry for those not able to complete their cloud row but higher level players/ long-term players have to have some perks .

 

I enjoyed this event - the breeding was not onerous - apart from unwanted skips! - and the rewards were good. Thank you for listening and giving us BEP as well. I don't like drops but this time there were plenty, so thank you for that too.
I would have liked a better reward from the cloud but I have left it empty and put the deco items on Baha. It would be nicer if the clouds were affected by owl tree, etc so we got the extra percentage ep each time we harvested.

 

Lower level players knew up front that they would only be able to do so much of the event and thankfully they got some potentially nice rewards of trees and stables. Not sure that the type of trees and stables were beneficial for upper level players who had no problem finishing the event. Mid level players had some issues with the Monkey temple location of the plants requested for the completion of the entire event. I was unable to level up enough in Baha to open hibiscus. I opted to pay BBs to complete the event but wonder if I may have made a mistake. I really dislike being one deco item short of completing a cloud row. (I leveled up enough to open two new chambers (75 GBs) but didn't have enough time to earn the GBs (42) required for cactus and hibiscus.)

Also, I had to open Aloe Vera and I think the other plant as well.

 

I started too late, and now i don't have enough time to get the rockets.

 

I don't like the inclusion of breeding animals that we've seen recently but I do understand that higher level players who spend money on the game may have finished most of the breeding quests so they need to have some outlet for extra animals. I am still slowly plodding on with all the breeding quests as I can't afford to buy PF. I would like to see some higher level breeding animals as prizes, that would really help those of us without much PF.

 

I did not have enough emus to finish task 6 diamond and i did not have any hibiscus for task 7 but i finished task 6 silver and gold stages and task 7 silver stage,all in all i came out okay,even though on the stables i got some repeats as well as the wonder trees,did not get the things i wanted to complete other quests in the Farmer's Society but all in all i feel i did well in the event,my suggestion is bring this one back next year only tweek it so the breeding animals you need is achieveable.

 

It would be very interesting to know how many players completed all the tasks as I don't think an event which asked for so many breeding animals would be very popular without the accompanying Baby Boom over some of the event time. I personally did not complete the tasks requesting breeding animals.

 

The topup seeds reset system was faulty. I had to raise a bug report to get my seeds. And this was more than 15 hours after my donation of last seeds. Why was that so?

 

I didn't finish because I didn't have hibiscus or had the animals...otherwise it was good to get the stalls and a few prizes...but the last candle is the best one I've seen in a while.

 

I finished all but the last two parts of the level 7 - could not get Hibiscus in time but I finished the event in four days on my other farm, thanks to the FAQs being released so early (a nice gesture for the festive season). Drops were good and, though I see there were a few glitches, these were minor and more or less rectified without major hiccoughs).

The prizes were very good - Secret Seedlings and Stables are always welcome as are Spins though I would still like the harvester prizes to come as vouchers so we can decide when we use them.

All in all, a good event, not too pressurised so that we could do it without too much time sitting at the 'puter.

 

I don't like events that require a bunch of breeding animals that are not based on breeding already, and there are plenty breeding events and quests already. You mean to tell me with all of the different trees and stables that are coming out that you can't find enough other stuff besides breeding animals to require? Also, I agree with others here that the rewards for the row don't make sense or aren't valuable compared to the rewards for the individual components.
