Booster Shots

Postby GigisCove » Sun Apr 30, 2017 12:49 pm

Maybe someone already thought of this or mentioned but I feel so bad during special events when other trademasters and friends don't seem to get the grand prize, I try very hard to help others and still do not see progress because like in our latest event there just seemed to be far to few jellybeans in eggs searched for. Wouldnt it be nice to have some type of daily booster shot with say a dose of 10 jellybeans along with the regular amount found. I know for myself I only found maybe 3 per day, and yes I bought the trees, many in fact but still the time required and amounts given out do not seem to be enough to help others. A daily booster designated only for helping others would be awesome! And thanks for creating this game by the way, with all the mess and violence on this planet it sure is nice to have something sweet and fun to look at, and these forums are a joy too. The other regular trademasters on here are a hoot and so gracious with helping with tips and ideas! It seems like alot of us are just very old kids trapped in let's say more mature bodies, I love every minute of this game and quite honestly it's a pleasure to hear others set timers in the middle of the night to get up for events and dives, I thought I was losing it over this game...Daily Helper Booster Shots please, would love to see other trademasters stay encouraged in the game by getting their grand prizes too! :D

It did seem like the game gave us a lot - a lot, lot - fewer jellybeans and eggs Than their counterpart items in earlier events. Not only were they fewer but they were of less value. It took more eggs to buy the chests, for example, even though they were also scarcer.

The decorated chests were especially dusappointing. IMO the special event chests should have been giving special event items (jellybeans, multiple eggs, even an occasional basket), not regular stuff like tools.

I remember the last two events a lot of people on the forum were complaining about too many wrapping papers and too many pumpkins :lol: Now it's too little jelly beans :D More isn't always better and less isn't always bad.

Yes, I think we could need more of these jelly beans. To help a facebook neighbour, I traded eggs for 4 bountiful baskets and sold them for low to her. She vor the rabbit this way.
I don't like stickers and have already more than 150 fences. But not everybody wants to give eggs to help others, so there should definitly be a let's say more natural way to help.

Jelleybeans are not a counterpart to the wrapping paper. The paper and the pumpkins were used mostly as commodities used to feed the big event item, or rather materials used to produce stuff to feed the big item. The eggs are the nearest counterpart to those, except the eggs served only to feed the egg/rabbit if they went to buy the big basket. The eggs are comparable to the pumpkins and paper as the currency for buying the event decorations.

This event was more like the friendship in that the egg/ bunny was fed regular commodities with regular input materials.

IMO those food choices were another bit of really bad thinking by the devs. Of the thing we needed to grow the egg/ rabbit, three of them were dependent on slow harvesting, limited quantity plants - coconuts, blueberries, cacao. Really awful choices from the player's pov.
