This keeps happening - I click on the boost hit okay and then double check to make sure it took. But then when I start sending deliveries I see by the points I’m getting that it didn’t take and I have to spend 7 more gems!!! What’s up with that?

[PookieBear50]

Apparently the newest recipes in the Noodle House and the Dehydrator have been updated so that they do, in fact, give boost points (they did not do so during the previous Leaderboard event).

Which leads to the question: why hasn't the Truffle Shavings in the Windmill been updated as well?

Just to confirm:

Spiced Orange Cider (from the Caf?) provides 2 boost points (1 Orange Cider, 1 Dried Orange, 2 Cinnamon Sticks)
Dried Mango (from the Dehydrator) counts towards a boost point (2 Mango)
Tempeh Chips (from the Dehydrator) provides 1 boost point (1 Tempeh)
Spicy Edamame (from the Noodle House) counts towards a boost point (2 Edamame, 1 Herb)
Teriyaki Wheat Meat (from the Noodle House) provides 6 boost points (3 Seitan,1 Herb, 1 Honey)

[JustKay]

Which leads to the question: why hasn't the Truffle Shavings in the Windmill been updated as well.

The truffle shavings in the windmill aren't leaderpoint giving items because Android gamers don't have the truffle pig feature. This might be perceived as an advantage to iPhone players, whether it actually does confer an advantage. Ironically, in reality it is a disadvantage to iPhone players as a naive iPhone player might inadvertently waste time making truffle shavings for zero leader points, believing otherwise.

[PookieBear50]

As expected, I'm getting small amounts of boost points from the rare occasions that I spin and land on a chest (fence parts are more prevalent, as usual). The highest I've seen so far has been 50, but usually the amounts are between 13 and 20. This is in sharp contrast to the one time I actually went through the trouble of noting down the amounts I received, which often were 100+ and sometimes 200+. Sigh.

[Natasha_07]

I really want that Fall llama.

I’ve noticed this too. They’re always below 20. Very low this time around.

I got the red squirrel today but putting it on my farm means buying a 500 gem gazebo? I’m going to assume I can use another habitat so please tell me which one it is. Otherwise we’ve got another issue like the rescue pen shortage which is easily fixed and yet isn’t.

I am always from end of milestones but I would try the Wildlife Den beings the other squirrel lives there.
Trial and error is how I test. Please let us know.

Yes I was able to place the red squirrel into Wildlife den.

The Owl Tree milestone prize: is it storable? I already have several prizes that I can not store.

You should be able to store it when the event ends.
Boost items from other events have been able to be stored.
I will likely leave the owl out...he is so cute!

[mmrl]

Thanks so much for getting back to me!! And yes the little owl �� peeking out is so cute!

I didn't think Android users got the Leaderboard....

[PookieBear50]

Wow...in less than 24 hours I drop from number 2 to number 6. I knew it would be a fight to hold onto my position at 1st and totally expected my drop to 2nd...but didn't think I'd drop so quickly to 6. Oh well. Maybe I can hold on and get the Red Squirrel in the end...

I am in the same position. I was in 2nd position and a farmer who was in 7th or 8th shot up into first place n 2 hours time adding 8000 points and without the use of boosters. I know this because one can see on the leaderboard if a booster is being used How can he gain so many points in such a short period of time! Frustrating for players!

The player probably purchased one (or more) of the packages. One of them includes 1800 boost points...

Me too. I spin and usually get points but it is always under 50. More like under 30. Sigh. With less than two days left there?s no way I?m getting the squirrel now. Luckily I?m hanging onto 3rd place right now. I was going back and forth with 2nd but now they?re 150+ points ahead. The last leaderboard event had much higher spin amounts (100, 200+). I was able to finish all of the milestones on that one.

I will not make the squirrel milestone either I still need 1600 points. About 80% of the wheel spins have given fencing and when I do get a chest the points are between 11 and 19. None of the milestone chests have given any points mostly coins. Currently in second place but that can be taken away if someone buys the limited package. I think this is only the second time that I will not collect enough points to win the individual prize.

I got the Harvest Mouse reward, but no possibility of purchasing a 2nd rodent grotto to put him in. Is there a limit of just 1 rodent grotto? It doesn’t even show up in the market that I have one. I see it can also go in a wildlife den, but I’m maxed out with 4 of those that are full and other animals still in storage. I do wish the developers would lift the limit of wildlife dens you can purchase or start adding new habitats for these animals. Seems like every event has animals for the wildlife den...

I’m right there with you! No rodent grotto to be found anywhere!

[PookieBear50]

Well, it's done. As much as I would have liked to have received the Fall Llama, staying in 1st or 2nd was always a long shot. I think I received the Axolotl, which I am fine with. I came in 4th, which to my thinking is actually better than 3rd: a trophy is nice, but 10000 coins is more useful to me. Getting the Red Squirrel would have been nice too, but with each spin of the wheel only getting my up to 50 each time, it was never going to happen without buying any packages...which I can't afford to do. So, I'm going to be satisfied with what I have.

Now I just need to do something about all the Bacon I collected from my Pigs. Meh...guess it's time to go full-speed ahead on crafting Pet Feed again.

[Natasha_07]

I didn't even reach the Owl Tree much less the Red Squirrel, maybe it will be in a sale by BF.
