Seen a few screen shots of various things for this week, so perhaps no event and just sales. Scrap that (thanks Hagypagy), event on the way which will have a separate thread to this one about sales (and a bit of off topic fun!).

Will make a separate post for each offer in case there is any additional info to add on release.



New Goal: CLEAR ANY MONSTERS FROM YOUR BOARD!

The crowned lion aim is to make crowns in the royal forge need to use a lot of energy I would rather have used on the community event. I have tons of crowns that I don?t use as I don?t care for walkers. So if you are not interested in walkers maybe don?t start this event.
Some expansions are on sale. Woohoo. Saved a ton of money and a few lanterns. Thanks S8

Update: last step you have to make 10 more crowns, each take 1 gold nugget, and 1 enchanters essence and 3 royal gems (from the lion) I won?t complete this as I don?t want to spend the energy getting the gems nor waste my nuggets and essence.

The Crowned Jewel - Part 1
* Clear a rock outcropping 0/1 GO | you'll need to spawn more than 1 lion (or direboars! while clearing the rock) to get enough royal jewels
* Defeat the crowned lion 0/1 GO | 10/10 hits to defeat
* Find royal jewels 0/1 GO (skip 26 gems) | dropping during and once defeated
Rewards: 100 coin, 10 xp

The Crowned Jewel - Part 2
* Gather golden nuggets 0/1 (have 1 in inventory)
* Brew enchanter's essence 0/1 (have 1)
* Find royal jewels 0/3
* Forge a crown 0/1 GO | Magic Forge, 2 hours - 3 royal jewels, 1 golden nugget, 1 enchanter's essence - it awarded 10 crowns when a picture of a crown dropped.
Rewards: 100 coin, 10 xp

The Crowned Jewel - Part 3
* Forge 100 crowns 0/10 GO
Rewards: 1000 coin, 30 xp


This one is worth flagging twice!!!!

Naw hope you’re not feeling too crappy SW , sending you healing vibes so you’re all better soon!

Loving the Royal Exchange spell!! :cool:

Good selection of items being rereleased (even tho I already have them all).
Hopefully it’s only a glimpse of what will be for sale.
Great to see there’ll be some new items too! (hopefully not just the multicoloured crabs.)

Also SW there is still an event this week!
... Enchanted Foxicorn creatures are coming! :cool:

I'm super excited to see what else is on offer come Friday. Not sure about limits of the alicorn - is this one capped? I've 3 already so I guess we'll find out soon! And what a great idea with the Royal Exchange! I see many egg and dairy trades in my future.

Yes you're right about the event. I saw that date and thought oh that's ages away! Germs are messing with me!;) oh well I'll start a new thread for that tomorrow night. They look interesting don't they.

I really like the Lair. I have the troll sparing put which I also use to keep a monster out of the way on the board. It has come in handy so many times, especially when you're looking for a skunkupine as they have a higher spawn rate for me. So depending on how much it is I would give it some consideration yes.

Does anyone have a guess as to how many gems these items will cost?

I?ve been saving gems (and really want a few of the sale items), but got caught in a couple of big gem traps recently and so am reluctant to buy until the event, if I do buy them at all.

Also, do gems ever go on sale during Black Friday? S8 could help make up for some of these lost gems by ?giving them back? this way.

In years past, the sale has gone through Sunday or even Monday. So if they follow the same pattern, you'll have a few days to purchase items at the sale price.

I spent money to win the shadow wolf which is already very disappointing, but I figured it was worth it to have infinite energy nd I saved all my stock piled items to use today on the stock exchange deal. It better freaking work like they said!

Anyway gonna make out nice on the sale items - gold and energy things. After that I am so done giving storm 8 my money. They sure do know how to disillusion cash paying players.

Good question, mine also says 200 gems “marked down” lol to 400! Be warned though, I think the sweet tooth Ali is one of the slackers....minimum 2 energy instead of the usual 4

For Black Friday, trade tickets were doubled....I got just one which gave me 17 tickets went to market to buy some items and then a reset. Had to tap you have trade ticket pop up;( first time ), tapped now i only have 16 ticket in inventory. Nothing can describe the frustration in losing a ticket already earned and then get nothing from the pop up. please let your team know that these hiccups tarnish any good will towards them. Leaving not benefit of the doubt for them.

The bountiful table is so worth it. Gives a random feast every other day, incl sweet and spicy. Even during energy-intensive events, this is one I always collect from. It's limited to 1 unfortunately. The thief looks great, but I rarely collect from it. Can't remember what it drops.

That sounds good especially for the sweet and spicy feast, it takes me so long to collect flour which is used for almost everything, plus I have a hard time keeping the roast chickens in stock.

Could be very useful.... Maybe even more useful then energy animals since I am able to log in up to 6 times each day and use up my 40 energy each time. I was looking forward to the Chinese, but if I am interpreting this one correctly it is a whooping 400 gems to only collect 1-4 energy per day which is much less energy then the white alicorn that will give 40 per week and for less cost. I think the cholera would be 28 energy per week, but actually it could be as little as 7 energy per week. That is crazy!

I could not buy more than one bountiful table-it really is worth the gems though. It gives you all the feasts to go on adventures, so I never have to make them anymore :)
The troll thief never gives me anything I can use so I am not sure if he would be worth buying.

Yes. The one I have is from a long ago event, and I can't buy an extra.

I also have the Mystery Dinner Table that works the same way, and along with some of the newer Simple and Heart feast giving items, I rarely have to prepare feasts, in spite of running both keeps and the barrack at all times.

Thanks,

When it starts working, you get a dialogue from old thomas saying oh go look etc. At that point the times displayed in exchange show the new value: so the eggs and milk exchange (usually 2 hours) shows as 1 hour.

Not being patronizing just saying what signs you should check for. I hope you don't have to uninstall/reinstall to get the effect.

The two tables used to drop the Spicy or the Sweet Feasts on a regular basis. In the past year, however, these drops have become rarer and my stockpile of both types of feasts have been depleted with regular adventures run from the two keeps and the barracks.

Thanks! I’m finishing another trade soon. I believe that I did get the dialogue. I’ll keep trying. You are very kind! :D.



When it starts working, you get a dialogue from old thomas saying oh go look etc. At that point the times displayed in exchange show the new value: so the eggs and milk exchange (usually 2 hours) shows as 1 hour.

Not being patronizing just saying what signs you should check for. I hope you don't have to uninstall/reinstall to get the effect.

Edit: SW posted 1 min before I hit enter, lol.

Thanks SpiritWind for clarifying, I’m hopeful that my next trade time will be halved. I may delete and reinstall APP. I know these things happen just wanted to post, as others may be having similar questions. You are wonderful to the CS community.

Hey spirit wind, you are probably revising top post so FYI pastel alicorn and Sweet Tooth are of the newer, weaker variety of alicorns, dropping as low as 2 daily.

EDIT: ginerp says below that trap is not needed, triggered from chopping rock outcropping?!)
I think you know it, but for the audience FYI, I believe the crowned lion "quest" is only playable if you buy the traps for 20 gems. I cynically suspect multiple traps are needed, but I could be wrong, lol.

I completed that quest without buying a trap. Chopping the rock out cropping triggers the lion.

How do you get 2 keeps?

If you did the Halloween event from 2016, the reward was a haunted keep that has the same timing of adventures as the barracks, two days for most adventures.

Aquatic Alicorn is a daily 4+ dropper. Limit 4 which explains why I didn't see it, lol.

Soup Kitchen 200 gems has a 12 hour interval per game. (not in our inventory guide. it seems it was 2 hours when it was released https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?101867 Soup Kitchen event)

Soup Cauldron is also on sale, 25 gems. No time listed in game but inventory guide says 12 hours? drops hearty stews (ingredient for feasts)

Food shelter (as listed by bebitanuspuneper0864213579) is 200 gems but has no interval posted in game. Game says "various food drops." (Not in our inventory guide atm. Danged if I'm trying Shibuya's today lol)

The crowned lion aim is to make crowns in the royal forge need to use a lot of energy I would rather have used on the community event. I have tons of crowns that I don?t use as I don?t care for walkers. So if you are not interested in walkers maybe don?t start this event.
Some expansions are on sale. Woohoo. Saved a ton of money and a few lanterns. Thanks S8

Update: last step you have to make 10 more crowns, each take 1 gold nugget, and 1 enchanters essence and 3 royal gems (from the lion) I won?t complete this as I don?t want to spend the energy getting the gems nor waste my nuggets and essence.

Hi meugie, maybe try another browser to lodge a ticket. Unfortunately, only Support can help with gem issues. Check your itunes/google play store history to see if the purchase went through or not and take a screen shot of that to attach to your ticket. :)

I have a bountiful table that never even got past the first level - should never have even attempted that event :)

However there is showing the option for me to purchase another one, yet when I try it tells me I already have one.

Is this a glitch of some sort? As i would like to purchase one

Top right of screen - there are 6 plots with reduced prices. This land was released today.

I don't have aquamarine yet but have 4 aquatic. Mostly, besides the energy, mine usually drop orange coral. As I am always maxed on mermaid scales, I will probably get more aquatics.

reposting this from page 1. If you can afford to at least give the coins alone to these plots, it would be worth it!


I just clicked on one of those. Paid the coins and lanterns but was short 2 expansion permits
When does the sale end and what will happen to those partially done?
Will i lose everything. The wisp lantern coins expansion permit already done

Didnt check if i had enough first

Lost those previously when the expansion plot next to the hidden outpost was available then reverted due to some glitch
Never got reimbursed. So therefore the query

I wouldn't think you'd lose anything you've partially completed. I will check though although I'm not sure we have time for an answer bc of the holidays.

I also would think that if you fully loaded EG lantern and coins then after sale ends but still had permits to apply then the permit count would revert back to full.

Had to tap you have trade ticket pop up;( first time ), tapped now i only have 16 ticket in inventory. Nothing can describe the frustration in losing a ticket already earned and then get nothing from the pop up. please let your team know that these hiccups tarnish any good will towards them. Leaving not benefit of the doubt for them.

I just expanded to G0 and H0, and it only took 3 permits each instead of 6 each. I had 8 permits to start with and still have 2. Making one now so I can expand to I0. I figure it?s better to do the ones that would save 3 permits instead of just one.

A few hours ago I bought gems specially for this sale, game lost connection and puff, my purchase disappeared. Of course, I submitted a ticket - only to get a response, that office is closed until Nov 26, and after that day I must wait 5 to 7 days for the answer. By that time sale will be long gone. Hopefully, I will get gems for my money one day, but who will compensate my missed opportunity?

This is a big sale, with extremely short time period during holidays. And S8 left it with no one to supervise this event goes smoothly.

It's an excellent addition to the game. Every 2 days a 'FEAST' drops randomly.. Hearty, Spicy, Mercury or Sweet.

Please tell me about Bountiful table. Does it often drop sweet or spicy feast, or are they rare and mostly just simple and hearty?

Between this and a couple of other decorations with the drops etc I’ve found I only make spicy feasts when I need to use some roast chicken up because it’s uneven with the fish and bacon. I’ve usually got around 70-80 of these, I have the haunted castle, queens court and the barracks adventuring every day and I regularly do the dark cave adventure at least 3 times a week.

The sweet feast I usually have between 35 and 50 of these stashed and make 1 every 2 weeks but also try and do this adventure at least once a week.

So for me the bountiful table has been bountiful and I collect from it at every 2 days.

I haven?t seen this question asked so apologies if it?s a repeat, but does the golden mine drop a nugget, egg or apple at every collection?

I noticed it drops other gold items, but it?s really these three I want. I?m debating between this and another alicorn. I?m thinking that if I go with the Ali which I have a herd of and sometimes find I don?t know what to do with my energy, but if I go for the gold mine then I can use those to create gems in the exchange and therefore buy whatever I want including the Ali?s.

Thoughts?

SpiritWind00
11-24-18, 02:12 AM
Yes, however... extract added here from Guide:

Note: The Golden Mine will always drop either a Golden Nugget, Golden Egg, or Golden Apple. You still have a chance to get the other more rare items. (updated Aug 2016). If you are maxed on a gold item, you will not get the drop.

All the positive comments about the bountiful table have convinced me to spend all my saved gems on it. Now to decide if I want to buy some gems to get a second gold mine/white flyer/red crab or aquamarine alicorn...

Does the red crab drop mermaid scales every collection (and how many)? Is the white flyger worth it?

White flygers are definitely worth it for me. I already have 2, I think I crafted them during an event ...
But I am about to buy another 2 for this price.

They were my principal source of expansion permits, like 1 a week, while the armored flyger only gave me 1 in months. But like everything else, the drops are different between kingdoms ...

I am debating alicorns. Already maxed on aquatics which I enjoy. I started playing in march so I have no weekly alicorns. Do the weeklies get occasional windfalls of 100, etc? Because if not, I think the dailues are a better value.

I can buy two weeklies for 600 net, or 3 aquamarines for 200 each, 600 net. From the 2 weeklies I would get 80 energy every 7 days. But from the 3 dailies I will get min 4/day from each, which is 84 every 7 days, plus random chances of windfalls of 20+.

People talk about "saving up" energy, I guess by collecting from their weeklies, but right now I use every scrap of energy every day, and that's with many buildings/items in storage, lol. I see no reason nor avenue to save up? Unless it's someone who takes a break from playing, and just logs in once a week to collect from alis?

I'm debating Ivy and actually getting a Living Wood tree (not on sale.) I used to never need LW but now I'm constantly out of it, lol.

And Ivy ... I sure wish I hadn't just built Cooking Camp. Between Bountiful Table and Ivy, I won't need it at all. GAH!! lol

The weeklies always drop 40. I agree with your analysis, the dailies (the ones with 4 energy minimum) are a better value. However, it still is a gaming style preference. Would you rather have a ton of energy once a week or a little bit every day?

I’ve gathered a few weeklies along the way and they do make somewhat of a dent during events, but the main engine in my game are the dailies. I think S8 realized that and introduced the 2-energy droppers, who are useless in this context. The big drops are too rare.

If I had 99 white alis I’d be saving energy too, lol. But I’m not in that privileged class. The only scenario beneficial for me would be to save up for the new LB monster hunts. But mostly there’s an event the week before in which I’m engaged.

The Ivy’s kitchen has a 24h timer. A timer I personally despise deeply. Same for the unicorns. A few minutes always creep up daily until it’s too late to collect before work and at that point I usually lose them for the day.

I’m sure your new kitchen will be of use! And good luck with you decisions!

I can buy two weeklies for 600 net, or 3 aquamarines for 200 each, 600 net. From the 2 weeklies I would get 80 energy every 7 days. But from the 3 dailies I will get min 4/day from each, which is 84 every 7 days, plus random chances of windfalls of 20+.

People talk about "saving up" energy, I guess by collecting from their weeklies, but right now I use every scrap of energy every day, and that's with many buildings/items in storage, lol. I see no reason nor avenue to save up? Unless it's someone who takes a break from playing, and just logs in once a week to collect from alis?

I'm debating Ivy and actually getting a Living Wood tree (not on sale.) I used to never need LW but now I'm constantly out of it, lol.

And Ivy ... I sure wish I hadn't just built Cooking Camp. Between Bountiful Table and Ivy, I won't need it at all. GAH!! lol

Don't forget to take into account the energy you use to collect from the alicorns. With two weekly alicorns - you use 2 energy to get 80 energy whereas 3 daily alicorns you use 21 energy over the week to get 84 energy (but there's a chance of more). So without the chance of more the weekly alicorn is clearly better.

That said, I think getting a small amount more energy is quite common. At least - my two wedding alicorns seem to give 5-7 energy as often as they give 4 energy. Higher amounts of energy are rarer (and over 12 is very rare) but overall I think they're probably averaging out at around 6 energy per collection which makes them definitely better than a weekly.

... it still is a gaming style preference. Would you rather have a ton of energy once a week or a little bit every day? ...
Good luck with you decisions!

Thank you so much for posting all of your reasoning. It's super nice to know other people have asked the same questions and are thinking the same way. I think my play style suits the dailies, as I always have more to do even with many logins a day.

Thanks for your post and the math I neglected. Darn it, I knew there had to be some catch to it, lol. I forgot about the click cost! I should know better! Based on your very good point, I think I'll get at least one weekly so I can feel that difference.

I don't pay attention to the small extras. It's a treat when my 2+ droppers occasionally cough up 4-5, lol. I get a windfall (20 or more) at least once a week from my source pool, which includes 4 aquatics (4+), wedding (4+), candy alicorn (2+), prince+princess (2+), spring steed (2+), and my first MRC daily unicorn (4+ type).

How the heck did you get 2 wedding alicorns, and most importantly, why didn't I think of it?!

Thanks again to both of you. Your posts let me see into your process and both were super helpful!! :-)

I think you will find it quite useful. I have the two regular kitchens, two winter bakeries, and the cooking camp and all of them are crafting almost all the time. I also have the bountiful and another meal dropping table, forget the name. And the two guard dogs that occasionally drop simple feasts. My keep and the barracks are questing all the time, mostly exploring the dark caves and desert sands. So I?m always making Sweet and Spicy feasts or apple pie, orange cobbler, and lemonade to trade for a gem.


The other table is the Mystery Dinner Table. Same drops as the Bountiful.

I'm thinking he might be like an 8 hour mermaid pond? With the sale you could get two of him for the price of a mermaid pond; if he's a guaranteed drop it's pretty good.

I'm still doubtful myself on purchasing the Chimera, due to the fact that it's not on sale. I realise it's a new entry and completely new design introduced, but not knowing the style of energy drops, what category dropper.. can't judge at the moment if it's worthwhile and $ well spent.
So.. holding back on that and choosing other energy-droppers of which are offered for less and I can buy more at the same price. I figured at the end of a week, considering I bought more, even if they are considered low droppers, together they should give more.

That's pretty much my thinking as well. Unfortunately, I was already maxed on all the Alis but Sweet Tooth and the weekly so there's not much of a variety for me to choose from. If it was any other Ali than Sweet Tooth I'd buy a few more without thought but I've still got a slight chip on my shoulder where that Ali is concerned so I'm hesitating and will likely purchase a few weekly Alis instead.

I really had high hopes for this sale but I can't purchase any of the big ticket items due to the caps on them so I'm mostly focusing on the expansions right now. I love the lowered timer and expansion discounts but it's not the same as buying items that I've been wanting. Hopefully they'll offer some items that we old timers can actually purchase in the Christmas sale!

Aquatic. Hands down. I bought 2 when they were on sale recently, at least on 4 separate occasions I received +100 energy between the two of them. Plus all the extra aquatic supplies he drops, I'd say it's way better than mermaid scales....

Quite true about old timers.. putting caps on the different Dalies, there's no way we can help the s8 economy. Useful buildings are capped.. I wouldn't think twice to buy another 2 Gold Mines, but they're not even in my offers. Bountiful Table capped too.. so that leaves a 400 Chimera or more normal Alis, which are already in majority in my kingdom, being an oldtimer.
I save all year for this sale, never spending in speeding or any luxuries during events so as to be a big-spender during this Black Friday period... lol!

Annirasweets I finally got a pair of your designed Valentine SweetTooth Alis! I waited all year for the price to go down.. but finally I have a pair. So maybe I'll wait for the Chimera to drop in sale price too.

Happy Shopping everyone.. these sales are a once a year pleasure. I don't remember Cyber Monday Sales and Christmas Sales are usually decos.. so take advantage if you can. You'll be thankful on the long run and they are permenant useful additions.

Haven?t seen on first page... maybe I missed it - but the cabbage but is on sale and I am thinking on getting it - good?? Or maybe one alicorn (the white regular one that I think looks a bit stupid... but since it gives energy..) what do you think? Getting one of them or both? Or getting two?

Already got one right after this post- visited one of my friends and alicorn was too cute as young so had to!

Hello everyone! I bought the 530 gems pack, plus 65 gems that I already had. I bought 1) the bountiful table, because I am always sort on sweet feasts and it takes too much to make it. I have quite enough of the other 3 kind of feasts, but I have 3 dragon eggs to hatch and need the drops from desert sands adventure 2) one aquatic alicorn. I have 3 weekly alicorns (believe it or not, all from watching videos!) and 11 daily alicorns. I would love to get a couple of those, but I am not that desperate for energy, so I thought I could invest to something different this time. Which brings us to no.3) the cabbage hut. I didn’t have a cabbage hut, and I thought I should give it a try, although last year alicorns didn’t come up in baron’s tent much. We’ll see how it goes.

Some information about stuff I already have. I bought Ivy’s Bakery six months ago. It is a good buy, it gives me things that I am usually bored to make, such as cakes, coblers, pies etc, but are very useful to the elves exchange. Much better than the harvest pergola, I wish I knew that before. I also have the soup cauldron, really useful little thing. I am maxed to hearty soup thanks to it, it made cooking hearty feasts much easier.

I wish I could get a couple of the golden mines, but well, we can’ t have it all. Next year!

Red crab has given 3-4 mermaid scales, coins (I didn?t see how many) and 2-3 water each collection so far (3 times).

I?m disappointed that the troll theif doesn?t give gold nuggets more often. He?s disappointing so far just water and a black flag for jewels.

Considering the low price.. the gold drops are proportional. However it's a good buy for an occasional gold dropper and handy to have in the kingdom. I always collect from mine to see what surprise pops out.

Thats true. For the price, I?m not angry at having purchased him. I just wish he would drop more gold nuggets, since I?m still working towards upgrading my jousting arena.

I did by the gold mine and feel good about that. So far I?ve gotten a golden apple. I figure it will help with the gold needs during adventures and perhaps even pay for itself over time with the gold trade for gems.

So, just looking at value, seems I will be better off buying more aquatic alicorns. I have 4, is there a cap on these? The sweet tooth and aquamarine are pretty, but are they worth the extra 75 gems apiece? Got the bountiful table and Ivy's bakery. I have played so many junky games over the past year to earn gems, I have quite a few. Should I save some for Christmas? Might any of the cute Christmas things I see in others games ever be up, such as the reindeer stable, etc.? Thanks for all opinions.

Are we sure the Lair of Beasts is capped at one? I already have a Lair from the original event, but it is in my market for sale and when I click on it, it is ready to place it if I click the check mark.

I'm debating whether to buy a 2nd one. It's one of those items that can come in handy during timed events requiring a skunkupine, fangbeast or dire boar, although it's always random if you'll get the monster you need. Of course for 250 gems I could buy 50 traps and be guaranteed to get the monster that I might need for an event lol.

Anyone else getting a 2nd one?

Congrats on your gold mine. I think you will love having it. I have three in my kingdom and do the gold for gems exchange any time I have accumulated at least 50 of each gold item. I kept records of each exchange and paid for all of the gold mines in about 6-8 months each. Good luck with yours.

Aquatic Alis unfortunatly are capped at 4.. also Aquamarine. Sweet Tooth is not stated on the back of the card, so assume it's not capoed. I have 2 at the moment.
Looking at your kingdom, I would suggest you build up your secondary energy supplies (when you can) as it's with energy you move forward and the more you have the further you go.

Re Christmas decos, yes every year something is re-released, but of course we have no idea what. They're however usually animals and pets along with the Christmas Trees we can chop. The Stable is an icecream dropper however.. handy to have but not essential.

Secondary energy is essential.. so I would suggest choose anything you fancy that drops energy.

just went through a major let down in life and decided it's finally time to have one original Alicorn per day ready so went for 6 at half price and i'll set it up so one is ready each day.
never got any through the videos, but i wonder, do you only get them when the video offer shows an alicorn or can they show up fr any video you watch???

i have zillions of daily alis and they helped me build up almost 9000 energy [skipping events that i'm not interested in]

The only concern I have is I have had a few times where I have enough royal points for an expansion and then to minimize my board I remove the royal building and the check disappears when I then try to finish the expansion a few weeks later and I have to get the royal buildings back out.

Here's hoping, because I spent the money and lanterns but won't have the permits yet. Figured I really don't lose anything because even if it doesn't stay ticked off, I will have part of the requirements met when I get back to them.

Did you finish the Search for Sabina Quest? Epelus was locked in the Town Square until that story was finished so maybe that's it?

If you miss him during this sale, I wouldn't worry too much; once you unlock him he's a permanent item in the Town Square Market. To be honest, they didn't offer much of a discount on the permanent citizens, they're normally 500 Crowns but the sale price is 450.

Yes.. the Royal Points are counted only at the time you open the plot. If you do it before and it ticks off.. then you put your buildings away.. it won't count even if it was ticked off. You must have them all out at the moment when you open the plot.
I don't think the other requirements, lanterns and coins, will disappear once ticked off though. In the past I usually give lanterns to unopened plots not to waste them when maxed.. they remain there.

I've given coins and lanterns to all discount plots.. taking advantage of the reductions. Plots I've fully opened only 2.. as even with less crafting time and double tickets given.. it still takes awhile to complete a permit even if all possible ticket/permit droppers are on the board and are collected each time. It's a slow process however.

Oh! yesterday the Billy Goat with hat and long fringe dropped a Permit.. the birthday one.. sorry I don't remember his correct name at the moment, but he's one and only so can't be confused.

Thanks for your post and the math I neglected. Darn it, I knew there had to be some catch to it, lol. I forgot about the click cost! I should know better! Based on your very good point, I think I'll get at least one weekly so I can feel that difference.

I don't pay attention to the small extras. It's a treat when my 2+ droppers occasionally cough up 4-5, lol. I get a windfall (20 or more) at least once a week from my source pool, which includes 4 aquatics (4+), wedding (4+), candy alicorn (2+), prince+princess (2+), spring steed (2+), and my first MRC daily unicorn (4+ type).

How the heck did you get 2 wedding alicorns, and most importantly, why didn't I think of it?!

Thanks again to both of you. Your posts let me see into your process and both were super helpful!! :-)

I got one wedding alicorn from the goal line and one in last year's black friday sale. It was the second cheapest alicorn on sale last year - I didn't like the design of the cheapest one - but also they make a nice matched set to draw my wedding carriage.

Glad I could help. :)

Edit: Thanks everyone who reported on the red crab drops - you've convinced me it's worth 60 gems to get some help with my permanent mermaid scale shortage.

Being a hoarder it was hard to give up my lanterns for the sale plots but I did. I'm down to 9 lanterns. It's going to be a long road back.

Yes.. the Royal Points are counted only at the time you open the plot. If you do it before and it ticks off.. then you put your buildings away.. it won't count even if it was ticked off. You must have them all out at the moment when you open the plot.
I don't think the other requirements, lanterns and coins, will disappear once ticked off though. In the past I usually give lanterns to unopened plots not to waste them when maxed.. they remain there.

I've given coins and lanterns to all discount plots.. taking advantage of the reductions. Plots I've fully opened only 2.. as even with less crafting time and double tickets given.. it still takes awhile to complete a permit even if all possible ticket/permit droppers are on the board and are collected each time. It's a slow process however.

Oh! yesterday the Billy Goat with hat and long fringe dropped a Permit.. the birthday one.. sorry I don't remember his correct name at the moment, but he's one and only so can't be confused.

Yes! He also gave me one! And lanterns on other days! Like that goat!

About two hours ago I finally decided to buy one of the daily Alicorns on my low level account and spent happily most of my gems for it. Now I find the game reset, alicorn is gone, gems are back, but now I am back to the question: daily alicorn or cabbage hut and hope that there will be alicorns in the barons tent in the future... If I had about 20 gems more it would be easier and I would buy the bountiful table, but so I am stuck.. any advice?

I've been having quite a few resets on my game too.
Your kingdom being a lower level.. I would suggest the Cabbage Hut, so you can collect cabbages in the hope of using them on some daily alis offered, or other useful offers.
The choice of buying only 1 Daily Ali won't make much difference in providing you with secondary energy.. so the Hut would give you chances to collect more.

Yep I finished quest, game reset, it showed not finished and I can?t get him ever



Did you finish the Search for Sabina Quest? Epelus was locked in the Town Square until that story was finished so maybe that's it?

If you miss him during this sale, I wouldn't worry too much; once you unlock him he's a permanent item in the Town Square Market. To be honest, they didn't offer much of a discount on the permanent citizens, they're normally 500 Crowns but the sale price is 450.

I was trying to get as many Expansion Permits as possible before the reduced pricing goes away and so I was chopping all my Rainbow Pots and Bags of Treats. I got a few from each source but I was blown away when I got a Vampire Bat pet from the Bag of Treats, making it my second. I had no idea that was even possible and I'm over the moon about it since it has the possibility of dropping permits too. So glad I stocked up on those bags when they were on sale!

The crowned lion aim is to make crowns in the royal forge need to use a lot of energy I would rather have used on the community event. I have tons of crowns that I don?t use as I don?t care for walkers. So if you are not interested in walkers maybe don?t start this event.
Some expansions are on sale. Woohoo. Saved a ton of money and a few lanterns. Thanks S8

Update: last step you have to make 10 more crowns, each take 1 gold nugget, and 1 enchanters essence and 3 royal gems (from the lion) I won?t complete this as I don?t want to spend the energy getting the gems nor waste my nuggets and essence.

Thank you for this. I decided not to do it as well.

Now that was LUCK! I would think the pet Bat offer would have expired!

Rainbow Pots have always been my favorite drop from the Rainbow Alicorns, even if rare.. BUT that they drop also from the Lucky Cauldron and the Parade Float, this is new to me.
Not that I'm saying it's not true.. but I collect EVERYday from my Lucky Caldron as I always do a Lucky Workshop craft and need the Lucky Magic.. never have I seen a Rainbowpot dropping there.. and my Parade Float only drops a few coins. As being a surprise that they do actually drop Rainbow Pots.. I judge as extra-super-super-rare drop.

Referring to this comment.. I've continued doing the Crown crafts and have stashed away quite a few Crowns for future use. The craft is still available even after the goals have been completed. Besides having a full inventory of Gold Nuggets.. they've been dropping quite often from Sparkling, Deep and Gold Mines. Also the Trade House has been dropping them.

In my game I can't place more than 5 Walkers at a time, otherwise I start having crashing problems, but I do like having all the Walkers possible in the Town Square, as they're part of the game and to me represent goals completed. I then change them around depending on the event that's running.. or none at all if my game's unstable.

There were a few reports that they drop on a rare case pots. I can amend if needed. I cannot confirm, I will pull them out of the storage and make a few weeks tests.

Thanks Shibuya... and I'll put mine in storage for a short rest to see if my luck changes when they're placed again.. lol!

I was just doing some research on the Rainbow Arches.. should these drop Rainbow pots as well? These I have never placed due to lack of space but now opening the new discount plots I can fix them in if they contain surprises.

Just found 15 pots in my inventory, must be drops from my Alis. Well 0 permits :( but tons of mithril, golden stuff, gems & energy. Still won't use my gems to buy a pot, I just hope m alis continue providing me with a few surprises.

Great sale! I got the last 2 Aquamarine alicorns and a Sweet tooth alicorn. I was maxed on the other daily, so I got 2 weekly, and a third White flyger. I crafted maybe 140 crowns and got some walkers, even though I can't display them. And opened 2 of the new reduced plots, plus paid lanterns and coins for the others.

Then a genius here on the forum reminded me of the rainbow pots, of which I had 13. With these I managed to get gems and permits so I could open one more plot and buy a fourth White flyger. My queendom is now broke, but I am so happy. Thank you S8 :)

PS We need at least one new type of daily alicorn before the next big sale. May I suggest introduction through the Barons tent, cabbages are the only currency I now have plenty of, with all the recycles.

I literally had my whole day planned around this--I was going to have just enough time to craft my last expansion permit needed for one of the plots. I very carefully made note of the time. It was posted in the expansion plots for sure, but I am thinking I saw it in the RE as well. C'mon S8! Is this really how you want to be after giving us this wonderful opportunity?

SW? Any explanation? Beyond disappointed & frustrated. My first clue was when I checked my RE before going on my lunch break & knew the timer was off. I had my trades planned down to the last minute.

Also came for the same reason - I thought the reduced prices on coins, lanterns and expansion permits were tied to the Royal Exchange deal, not the Black Friday sale. The plots that were reduced in coins, I paid those coins and checked off the box - they are all now back to full price. Same thing with permits - checked off the box with the reduced price of 3/6 permits and now the box is back with 3/6 - in other words it wants 3 more permits. S8 never ceases to amaze me!!! So incredibly frustrated.
