View Full Version : The no box club !

Didn't you got any boxes (so far) in this latest event:
you're not the only one!
unburden your heart overhere in the no box club!!

In the latest event knights can bring back boxes from their trick or treat adventure. With nice things in it: for instance a hayride, a scarecrow. Anyhthing else? I wouldnt't know: I've send out on adventure about 25 times and got 0, zero, nada boxes...!

I know for some players it seems like whining (especially for those who d?d get a box ; ) ).
But over all it's for me very discouraging and demotivating: when the event started I put everything aside, worked continuously on those (Raket)candy corn, and to keep all the harvesting of the corn and sugar and making and baking and collecting going I needed something more. Especially since the spooky walls/towers/gate are not correct, and the tiles can't be moved like I needed to. So I waited to place all in my kingdom, but since I had nothing else to encourage me (I didn't want to buy the lantern) I took them out eventually. But because of it all the lack of boxes is even bigger!
Even more now: I'm over 3100 (Raket)candy corn, so I got the cauldron (another sad thing: not animated!). But I find a big change compared to the previous event: when I received my 5th prize then I boldly went on making stones, for community! In this event I really have to set my mind to it. I must level up the Haunted Hall to 5 (but also there a slight disappointment: it's not spooky at all) and yes, I want the tree badly, but there you have it: I want the tree badly, but I'm feeling my enthousiasm slipping away...! I have to drag myself...

Long story short:

I've send out about 25 boxes so far, and so far no boxes reveived:
My name is Zelda and I'm in the no box club...!

I want to escape the no box club !!!
Knights, please, get me out of there, bring me something nice, the scarecrow would be so welcome!

Can anyone join? I too have sent out 3 adventures per day and nothing. Nothing at all from a box. I have completed everything else including my HH. Now I am just focusing on the community corn mission.

Every time I hit the castle when an adventure is done, I say "box, box, give me a box". So far, no stinken' box. Big sigh......

YES, everyone who hasn't had a box so far can join!!
That's why I started this :o
So we'll know we're not alone in this....

Me myself I'm scared to look now, when I bring the knights in...
As a matter of fact: I've forgotten to being them in in time twice, that's how much it bothers me...

No box for me either. I don't know why it bothers me, b/c I'm sure I'd store them after the event. But my collector's heart want them so badly!

Just got the hayride this morning, after sending out 3 adventures a day. So don't give up hope yet! Now hoping for the scarecrow.

No box for me either yet. 3 adventures a day since 12 hours after the event started (my knights were out elsewhere). But have you noticed how we've been lucky with our bats and ghosts? Last time I was grappling for braziers and think I even gemmed the last step on the last day. This time well more than a week to go and I just upgraded my Haunted Hall to level 5.

It seemed to me becoming Raket-candy corns is easier and quicker then the stones in the previous event. Then I reached the 5th individual prize a couple of days before the end, but not as soon as now! And leveling the HH, indeed, also easier (I hope to level up tomorrow).

10-27-14, 01:53 AM
I did three adv. per day for 9 days, got my last prize and slowed down a bit to get glimmer rocks for the bat, but no special prize for me .. I WOULD pay 200 gems for the hayride!!! will still do a few more candy missions but have little hope

PurpleScorpion76
10-27-14, 03:54 AM
Still no special boxes. Will keep trying and will probably max on ghosts and bats at this rate before I get a box.

10-27-14, 01:17 PM
I'm in the club too: dunno how many adventures I've sent out, but I've upgraded my HH to lvl 5 already and have 3390 Candy Corn, so it's not like I'm sitting on my hands, doing nothing. But still, no box for me.

10-27-14, 01:51 PM
My Cownt Moo Moo is with me now, I'm on HHL4, and trick or treating around the clock since the beginning, however, still a flaming member of the no box club. LoL I'd really love the cute scarecrow, the hayride would take up too much space, I'm only L29. I find myself praying to the Glimmergods at the end of every adventure, alas they deny me each time. Then I go talk to Pepe, he'd give me a sweet corn to help forget my sorrows. Maybe next time I'll put some maple syrup on it.. Now that I'm out of fur and silver, I hear "There is still time", says Ivy, "here, have some wine - hmm, wait, rat tails". :D I accept thankfully, count my blessings and keep the faith. There is still time indeed.

Hello everyone! We gave the knights some more food and now they have more energy to search for more boxes. You should have a higher chance of getting those boxes now! Good luck! :)

10-27-14, 05:53 PM
Thank you! I too was becoming very discouraged- HH is level 5, have the individual prizes, still cooking away at candy corn (although it slowed somewhat to finish the trick-treat brooms)- so it's great to think the possibilities have ticked up a bit...

EBJW
10-27-14, 10:01 PM
Really REALLY hope so, I keep fingers and toes crossed!!

My knights have been out 34 times with nothing to show for it ,

10-28-14, 01:36 AM
hmmmm good to know now that I have no more silver for tiaras... might be able to do a few more adventures before the event is up but I've been adventuring for the glimmerbat recently

jbfps116
10-28-14, 01:38 AM
In retrospect of this event I did remarkably good I think having got the last prize on day 9... but some things I'm thinking about that might make things go even better:
invest $$$ into my hobby and get 7 alicorns so I have an extra energy refill per day... and a barracks so I can keep going on other missions AND esp ones that give lots of energy!!

oops wrong thread!

NorthWoodsKingdom
10-28-14, 03:01 PM
Yeah, the drop rate has been changed .... But by how much? 1/2%? Lol
I've noticed no difference either.

Three more collections since the box chances were increased and nothing. Waiting, waiting, waiting......

hungjackyng
10-28-14, 09:05 PM
Same here ...-.-

EBJW
10-28-14, 10:40 PM
Me too...

Still nothing...

4254 Raket-candy corns made so far and send on adventure over 30 times (lost count how much exactly)(how come? she asked ironicly...).

At start staff said the drop was rare. But how come I saw in lots of neighbours' kingdoms right from the beginning scarecrows and hayrides, and lots of times more than one...?!

And now the chances to drop are higher... Indeed, how much?

I'm beginning to wonder if there really is a spell casted on that cauldron: what lays IN that huge smoke? There must be a reason why it's not moving... :rolleyes:

Nevertheless: after reaching my cauldron I fell into a black hole because of the no boxes. I managed to crawl out of it, even more so after reading the chances are higher now (yes!), so 3 times hopeful again, but... I'm seeing that black hole again, dooming up in front of me....

I have a bad feeling.....

10-28-14, 11:24 PM
I'm over this one. At least witH the dragon egg one most people got a drop (egg) that in the long run gave them something. Ie dragon drops. This one, we are waiting for a decoration drop. Hay ride, scare cow, whatever.

Whilst, nice to have on show, it will become useless.

Have made all requirements for candy corn. Have 2 visits in store to get a box, however, not holding my breath.

TL - whilst above advised that drop rate has been increased, it does not appear so. At least I know that my random 'no drop' means that I will not receive a thing, and if I do, it will be a miricale.

EBJW
10-28-14, 11:32 PM
and if I do, it will only go into inventory. As there is no now space to display. Che

Of course some people don't care about it (even more sad for us who do!)

I want the scarecrow for my spooky corner! Would look so nice in it!

But glad for you if you don't mind, that's lots of stress less ;)

10-29-14, 01:21 AM
4619 candys later another faired box,, thinking more and more it so the ones getting them are getting more as those who are not,,still are not still a memeber of the NO box club, so thinking no scarecrow or hay ride for me ,,, I'm want them ,, wish I had them ,,but glad they are just Decorations cuz it looks like I'm not getting them

It shows how people react differently:
I took it out 1 second, then put it back in inventory. I want a box!! I don't want a constant reminder of what I'm longing for, something so close, you can almost touch it, tough so far, far away....

That drink sounds much better: drinking our sorrows away...Yo ho Yo ho!

With 3 energy we should get very very very far!! Not? :cool:

I so feel for you all! I had that feeling too: if the drop is rare (at first), then why do I see multiple items at many neighbours and I don't get anything? Why do I see them at neighbours who are not into the Raket-candy corn-making 100 % like me, am I being punished for being so active?!

And especially when claimed the chances were raised: why are there still people with so many adventures done still waiting for that first box...?

I had a big deep breath not only before, but also when I saw that box appear:
the first thing my dearest said to me when he saw me jump up: "that's not very nice for your fellow-no box club-members, you getting a box!!"
Oh yes, he's right....

So therefore I hopefully bring some moral support, it's the least I can do!!
Keep courage!

Wish I could give away my hayrides and scarecrows. I got some but don't want them - I cannot even sell them because they are no-money-items. So they are in storage :-(

Got 3 scarecrows in row - and the next contained the hayride. So keep going - its possible

I'm hoping really want the hayride. Strangely that's exactly what happened to me except the hayride.

No hay ride here either. The castle game me two scarecrow in a roll. Then I have collected 3 more time with no box

Still nothing ... Oh well. Not really a big deal I suppose as the event itself has been great. Love the cauldron - drops good stuff.

No hay ride for me. I wanted it much more badly than the 2 scarecrows I did get (one very early, 1 like 5 days ago). I'm still sending out adventures, though, for the candy corn for the community prize I hope we squeak out. So it's still possible I get it. :)

These boxes are the weirdest thing of this event, I think. When I read in the beginning it was a rare drop, I thought: oh well, just hope I'll be lucky. Until I saw lots at neighbours in the first few days already! Some having 2 or 3.
Rare??

And then of course people like us hard working and waiting, and time after time getting nothing.
The chances were raised, eventually, and some of us were lucky. Me myself I got what I wanted: the scarcrow! And as a bonus little after the hayride! But more of us get more of the same, or.... are s t i l l waiting for the first box... Some of my neighbours as well.... So sad!!

Especially cause it happens to people who are really working hard at this event, who spend much time at his game and forum, and then being so dependent on pure luck, cause there's no other way, is :mad:
And is SO demotivating...

We haven't got much time left. I really hope you will all be rewarded with what you want!!
And I really hope incidents like these won't happen again in future events/quests....

I haven't gotten the hayride yet, and I've sent out 3 adventures per day. I did get the scarecrow on the second day, so I'm not completely out. I figure that the hayride would prolly end up in storage anyway, so I'm not too upset about it, but it does seem odd that so many people who have adventured their hind ends off and want it so badly haven't gotten anything yet. I do wish that TL would not do random drops during timed events! We've talked about this over and over, and TL still does it. What does it take for them to stop doing this?

I haven't gotten yhe scarecrow either, and only got the hayride thudsday or friday last week. Having said that, i actually understand this particular random drop. If everyone has all they need, then no one will continue adventuring for the community, or at least less people will. This way, those who have completed all tasks and individual prizes, still need to adventure in order to get the drops, thus helpping out the community.
I know there are some out there croping corn like crazy even after they got everything. But most players seem to have slackened off a bit with the corn collection.

Some people have stopped the Halloween event altogether, saying it's over, I just don't get it.

I think this one is a bit different from let's say the glimmerbat. These are just decorations that don't help or hinder your progress. A lot of people really, really want these but should that mean they all get them? Life isn't fair, and neither is this game. Saying that, I did get both decorations but I would not have complained had I not done so (and both will probably be stored soon).

I don't recall them using random drops absolutely required for a time limited event this year so I think they have listened (or I have just forgotten).

I know this is off the Halloween subject but I am level 29 and still have not gotten any fruit trees from adventures! I have about 3 goals right now that I need fruit and it's ****ing me. I'll just continue to be patient

This shows it's just how you look at it and experience it:
when I received the cauldron I went into a black hole. Not having reveived a box so far didn't encourage me to continue, au contraire, I was so disappointed I went from making/collecting Raket-candy corn 100 % to about 20 %!
So the randomness is no turn on, but a turn off for me.... And certainly doesn't motivate me...

Especially cause some things didn't seem fair, but I've said this all before in this thread, I'm repeating myself :rolleyes:

:( very aggravating to officially become part of this no box club!! a minimum of two adventures per day and still no box on this last day..i very much doubt i will get one with the current sent out adventure or the last one i can send out before this event ends..

these limited rare boxes should at least be programed to show up after a set number of adventures have been done during timed events!! its only decorations but, still its NOT fair period to faithfully play and still be left with no way to obtain these limited items, they should at least be made available in market for a limited time on last day of events... grrrrrr

I finally received my first box last night, and it contained the hayride! Good luck to all!

Still nothing. Mind you, I am feeling rather exclusive now! Second last adventure sent out just now so two more opportunities to be knocked off the "no box wall flower" club. Humm, somehow I now don't want a box - got to laugh!!! Have fun with it everyone. It looks like we will get the final community prize which is ten times better than a decoration from a box so thank you TL!

Today, I got knocked out of the "no box-club": I got my first box, containing the hayride. Feels like I'm missing out on something... really liked being in this club ;)

I know exactly what you mean, I finally got a box a couple of days ago, shouted 'finally' and then went 'oh no I have to leave the no box club.'

You guys shouldn't be sad because you finally got something. :( I've been sending quests out at least twice a day for the whole event, and nothing yet with 17 hours to go. Since I've just started a quest, I'll be able send once more before the event closes. But I have very little hope of getting anything at all at this point and the odds of finding both is like less than zero, especially since I don't even know if it will be possible with my last quest finishing after the close of the event.

Still in the " no- box" club. Can't believe that after sending 2-3 adventures per day I still don't have a hayride or scarecrow. I'm usually pretty lucky with these things, but I guess my luck has changed. LOL

I think the no-box-club is a very, very good idea! It has a feeling of exclusivity, and, because I never use decoration in my kingdom (it's crowded enough without it!) I'm even a bit sorry for being out of the no-box-club.

This is true, I did get something. My only bad luck on this event was no hayride and no crown.

Lost power yesterday and didn't come back on until the event was almost over...so no hay ride for me .

I sent one final quest out 6.5 hours ago. Wish me luck that this list one will come back with that hay ride I want so badly!
