I don't have the mine and don't want it. Does this mean I can't play in the event?

You can do the beginning goals without the event item from the mine.

In order to turn in collections though you would need the pool shack to make the item from the mine or you would have to expand to the mine.

The pet pig can only be won by turning in collections at the collection gallery though.

It may be an idea to put something in the first page to let people know that they should not complete goals unless they know they don't need the collectibles to complete collections.

Ok putting this right under Kooky's message in the first post!

I am on lvl 37; I can only have 5 orange trees. Hopefully that will be enough for the collections. I am saving up oranges now. It will really suck to get stuck because of that!

Haha, just got the turtle. Wow, 7 collections and no repeats.

I am still making biscuits, eggs, bread, french fries, and will be selling cotton and oranges as much as I can. Good luck everyone!

I hate that the prize is left up to chance :( I really want the turtle, but I was so disappointed when I didn't get the pink bow bunny. To work really hard AND use gems and still not be guaranteed the ultimate prize really blows :/

Although saving your oranges may not be a bad idea, I think the point here is collecting from the trees, not simply turning in oranges.

Sorry, let me clarify. I meant that although the quest MAY require giving oranges to Morgan, it is needing to collect from the orange trees (not the oranges themselves) that is important.

Just as collecting eggs was important for Morgan's 3rd quest, so was collecting the sunglasses from the chickens at the same time. It is the pool party items you might collect from the oranges that is more important than the oranges themselves. While having more trees might improve your chances, it is also possible that 5 trees will be all you need to complete that goal (when it unlocks).

I know that's a little unclear...but basically, it's what ELSE you might get when collecting from the orange trees that's important, not how many trees you have or how many oranges you get.

I'm still doing this event although I almost quit. The towels started dropping pretty well after a while. I'm having the hardest time getting sun lotion at the moment. Considering getting the pool shag but still waiting for it to go on sale. I've been collecting gems to buy a pony and I'm almost there, so not sure if I'm willing to let go of so many gems. I've been doing the goals because I noticed that the drop rate gets better after I've completed a goal.
The iron ore will be the hardest part because I'm one of the players who can't but ores in Sweet Retreat although I can mine for them and sell them.

I stopped at goal #3. Didn't see any point in continuing doing goals, since there's no pet reward at the end. Not gonna waste my collectibles on the goals.

I did went ahead and bought the pool shack. Not sure if it will be on sales few days later, but seeing how the event is so short and you need time to craft the collectible too. So it's better to start crafting them earlier. Save the frustration. ;)

I got in this late from not understanding. When we were collecting pool balls we were also supposed to "turn in" 60 biscuits. What was the reason? Where do they go? I feel that I was giving them away with nothing in return, so I stoppped. ???

If you look at the popup it would show as a reward the pool floats.
You would receive this when you complete the goal which is to give ten pool balls and 60 biscuits.
It is a way to receive some of the decorations.

I had the gems, so I splurged on the pool shack after a couple days. I should be able to turn in my first collection later tonight!

Am I the only one who doesn't go nuts for the pets? I mean, they drop nice things when you collect from them, and they're super cute wandering around, but I can barely keep the ones I have fed, and they take up so much space! I do think the turtle is cute and I like that he's different than all the cats and dogs, so I do hope I get him, but I really like all the decor. I love decorating the farm for each holiday and season - though I'll probably only leave all this summer stuff up for a couple weeks before breaking out the Halloween decorations.

Wait...what? So I spent some gems skipping one part after I finished the eggs and fries section and am on the one where we need wool and oranges. Are you seriously saying we aren't getting the pet? Did they confirm this? That sucks if so. I could have saved my stress, time, effort and money. I don't think this building will go on sale, so I'll see how I do with the deliveries and fishing, before I take the plunge and buy it outright.

I'm trying to learn this game. This challenge is hard unless you have a lot of animals. But I wanted to ask you what you mean by 'turning in four collections.' I thought we got one piece of the collection each day.

Yes Kooky confirmed on no pet thru goal, see page 1. You are better off saving your collection items. The drops from orange tree will take ages to collect since its 16 hrs waiting time. If you are getting the shack at full price, don't wait too long, you already lost 6 days crafting time. Good luck.

Ok, I bought the shack at full price. So it was 160 gems but since the goal gave me 25 gems back, it ended up costing 135 gems. I really like the decor too and want a chance to get the turtle. Hopefully I didn't make the decision too late.

Hi, are you turning in collections early? I turned one in and got a second pool lounge. I'm okay with this but I do loooove the pets. So could you please tell me, in you opinion should I make the missing parts to my collection and turn in as many as possible or wait for the last day after collecting from the individual places? I'm so confused. 😱 Thanks for any advice. 👍

I won the turtle too, with my 5th turn in. However, I got the same message as above. However, after about an hour or so, I got the sandcastle/habitat by itself. So not sure if that is a glitch or it is designed that way.

When you say "to focus on the collections", does that mean I will get a turtle if I continue to collect from the different areas each of these days (which I have been). I hope so and thanks for the advice.

You won't get the turtle from doing goals. You turn in collections in hope of getting a turtle. There is no garantee of turtle as prize from turning in. Think of it as a lucky draw whereby you win the first prize if you're lucky. One in a million as a player said.

Not sure what you are asking..what we mean by collections. Go to your collections gallery and the first tab will be a pair of sunglasses. You collect ten different items from around the farm and they are listed in the second post on the first page. Then you turn in the collection for a random luck prize like you do with the butterflies and moles.
There are nine prizes so every time you turn in a collection you have a one out of nine chances of winning one of the following prizes.

Lifeguard Stand
Pool Villa
Pool Lounge
Sand Castle with the Swimming Turtle
Pool Floats
Party Pool
Pool Umbrella
Pipers Pool
Beach Ball

The thing is the odds will be one out of nine each time you turn in a collection... the game is not going to look to see what you have...
And for all we know the turtle could be one out of a hundred...

Day 9
The swim goggles will be from the fishing pond.
The item will be released at 5:30 pm Eastern Daylight Savings Time
You will have to craft a special summer bait to catch the item.
We do not know what items will be needed yet to craft this bait.
Based on previous events there will likely be an ore from the mine plus wool and who knows what else.
Today's Dilemma is that you best look to see how many pickaxes and shovels you have and before you race into the mine to get the needed ore you sadly need to remember that tomorrow's event item comes from the mine! I have the pool shack so I will make the swim goggles from the hats and wait until tomorrow to mine but that is my strategy and you have to decide what is best for your game. Hopefully everyone got some summer bait from Stormie's Store!

Got 45 summer bait ready so not worried about that one.
And managed to unlock the mine yesterday so with 35 pickaxes waiting also confident about that one.
Now if only I had more orange trees...

How did you make the summer baits??? I don't have the option to make summer baits just the other normal baits!!! Why is that? :(

I simply bought them all from the market. Stalking there and found quite a few sellers.
Dont believe anyone can manifacture them yet, so Stormie and the market are the only ways to get them.

Okay, so I'm probably having the opposite problem of everyone else - I used my pool shack to turn in collections early, and out of 8 collections I got 3 turtles! However, I can actually only have one because I didn't get extra sandcastles and they only hold one?

Kooky, pretty please could you ask someone if they can increase the sandcastle capacity like the other habitats or have them buyable? Or even have it so you can only win one so I at least get decorations instead. I was so excited to have my little group of swimmers :(


Edit:


Oh my!! Not sure. I will check on this.

Oops, sorry, didn't see this!

LizzyWizzyNL33
09-04-15, 01:07 PM
I got them all through the market, none via Stormie either.
Just stalk the market and you probably see a few pop up here and there eventually.
With the rate this event is going, I might have to sell a lot too because I lack the item of the orange trees.

You have to be kidding!!! IRON ORE! Of all the things we can create u do iron ore. And tomorrow the challenge is MINING. So u want us to use all our picks today mining for ore to fish, so we can't do the challenge tomorrow!
This is ridiculous! I wasn't happy with the oranges, but didn't complain & kept plugging along. But now I am angry!!!
Are all of ur little programmers sitting back laughing now ... look at all those idiots! We'll show them!! No one wins our challenges without spending money on gems because we are greedy, greedy mean B's!!!!!!!!
I quit this game for six months when u took away the Russian Blue Cat & Yellow Lab without enough notice to get enough money to buy them - and made all the pets available only for a barrel of gems. Now this, just as I start to play again!
I wish u had been honest up front & told us there was no way to win this challenge! I just wasted days of time on this!!! Way to go! Thanks a lot for nothing!
I will NEVER EVER do another challenge in this game again! How greedy and mean spirited!!!!!!! You should be ashamed.

So I've been saving up Picks and Shovels since this event started. I how have 24 Picks and 9 Shovels in inventory. Rather than use them up today to get Iron for the lures (I only had 4 Iron in inventory), I'll wait until tomorrow's challenge to mine for the flippers. Then hopefully, I'll have the 6 Iron to turn in for the quest plus some more with which to make more Summer Bait. I'm making 4 now with the Iron I had. I'll need 10 or more just to get enough goggles to finish the quest. Does anyone have any experience with using the Summer Bait yet? Is it a very high drop rate? or a 1/4 like some of the others?

I had a bad attitude towards events when I first started playing back in December. But since I play every day, I must like this game, and since I've gotten to a higher level I appreciate the events because it's something new to do. I really do love my farm, and love reorganizing stuff and getting more stuff. Even if I have to buy gems. It's worth it because I enjoy it.

Yup my first try gave me 5 salmon and second try gave me 11 goggles. This seems better than the drop rate we have for oranges. I will wait till tomorrow to go into the mine to get the iron ore. No point wasting it today.

Thank you so much for telling us about the green button.

I have received either 4 tuna or 4 salmon from a summer bait in one try. When I have received the goggles it was 10 or 14 in one try so I now have plenty of those and it is the hats you gets from deliveries which are my lowest number. We shall have to see what happens with the mining tomorrow.

Same issue im having. Ive got 10 paltry shovels at the moment, compared to about 60 saws and need iron ore. So now I need to wait until tomorrow and hope for a balance of the ores AND the last part to turn in collections. I was going to buy the shack but I wasnt going to spend ten dollars on it. So my only hope is do what I can. Maybe get the 120 gem package and use them to turn in extras. If I win the turtle great. If not, I dont care too much.

Won a second turtle. Of course, can't place it. Would love to see the sand castle expanded to allow another 2 turtles. Would be willing to pay coins, not gems, to either buy another sand castle or expand the one I have

Yes, you do. When you are ready to fish, and the baits all appear in a circle, in the middle there is a small green circle. There are arrows on it. If you touch it, it rotates the bait to the second page, which is where your summer bait is.

I've not turned anything in for this goal yet cos I haven't got many hats from deliveries. I want to wait til I've got surplus for collections before turning in to the goal.

In the package for sale there is one golden lure which catches like fourteen anchovies at a time.
It is not used for goggles.
There are 3 summer bait and they have the exact same chance at catching goggles that the summer bait you buy from Stormie or make in the bait shop. There is going to likely be a fair amount of summer bait appearing in the newspaper because players will keep making the bait and one only needs so many goggles.

As for goals you are likely looking at the last goal because this event ends on Monday.
The Last Goal
Give 30 sun hats
Give 10 goggles
Give 7 iron ore
Give 15 anchovies
Give 7 catfish
Prize is the party pool!

In the past, we had seen players turned in many more times and turned out empty so 12 isn't too bad. Keep trying. Good luck :)

Just to add: the players who got their turtle at first few tries and some got multiple turtles are the lucky ones. There are many players who are still trying.

Not in my experience. I've used 10 summer baits and received 7 goggles one time, the other times I received 1 catfish at a time or 4 tunas. Used 5 golden baits and received 1 catfish each time. So now in addition to making these 3 1/2 hour baits I also have to make regular bait for the anchovies. I've fished in hot spots and not hot sports, doesn't seem to matter.

4 more bait...a ton more salmon and tuna! so jealous of the people who are overflowing with goggles. I only have 3 more iron ores to make bait with so we'll see :/

Ok I've used four of the summer baits now and no goggles. I seriously think I am going to stop playing this game now. I'm not going to put hours upon countless hours of time into an event like this just to MAYBE get an item when it clearly states you need the summer bait to get the goggles. If you spend all the time making the bait like they ask you to then you should get the goggles. Every event has been like this. They dangle these prizes in front of our faces then make it darn near impossible to get anywhere without spending gems. I've bought plenty of gems but I'm done. I have better things to do than spend half my day chasing after a turtle that I may or may not even get in the end, no matter how much time, effort or money I put into it.

Does anyone know how players who have not yet expanded to the mine can get iron ore? I've been stalking the newspaper but no one is selling (for obvious reasons). I had two summer bait I bought from Stormy's shop earlier this week but neither gave me goggles. So I have no goggles, no way to make new bait or to complete the quest. Kinda makes this past week seem like a big waste of my time.

you better catch up on your neighbors store, ask them for any ore if possible. hopefully some of them will sell any, or try to look up on the community. i usually do that for the things i need the most and always get what i want in the end, of course after spending hours and hours.. gud luck!

I've crafted summer bait and they are in my Barn but not showing up at the fishing pond?

Same issue im having. Ive got 10 paltry shovels at the moment, compared to about 60 saws and need iron ore. So now I need to wait until tomorrow and hope for a balance of the ores AND the last part to turn in collections. I was going to buy the shack but I wasnt going to spend ten dollars on it. So my only hope is do what I can. Maybe get the 120 gem package and use them to turn in extras. If I win the turtle great. If not, I dont care too much.

Hi. Don't give up I still have a bit summer baits left. Maybe it can help if you catch the goggles . Will sell you some mining tools too. I've got a few left. Don't give up.

When you go to select your bait to fish, you should see a green button in the middle. Tap that green button and you should see them. The other reason you may not see them, is that the baits must be harvested.

20 collections now and no turtle...

I don't think any other game has such work- intensive events where the reward is not guaranteed at the end. I will finish this event but then I think it's time to move on and stop wasting time. I haven't been playing anyways unless there was an event going on but the events really don't seem to be worth it.

evys_mom

Nine collections now. I've got:

1) umbrella
2) life guard's chair
3) Piper's pool
4) pool float
5) umbrella
6) pool float
7) life guard's chair
8) Pool villa
9) umbrella

Looks like I may need to turn in tens of collections to get the turtle.


15 COLLECTIONS in total turned in and nothing but decorations and a ton of fish nobody wants to buy anymore (salmon and tuna- at least 30 of each) and now sitting with 50 anchovies and over barn limited LOL!!!!! Felt good to vent a little!

I have farmed, fished, crafted, bought the shack, 3 of the "special" deals... I think I am not meant to get this pet!!!

I've got turtle, even 2 ! But only 1 sand castle so 1turtle is still in my barn. I'm lucky I guess 'cause it was my first prize turning in collection! Hot air balloon took almost all tuna and salmon so no extra fish. Now I wait for the last prize- lifeguard stand. All I want is more decoration in the market for I've played on Android before 😀

I have one bouncing ball, 2 piper's pools, 3 pool floats, 4 pool Umbrellas, FIVE GOLDEN RINGS, (JK.....about the rings!). Plus...2 pool villas, 1 pool lounge chair set, and still no turtle. :(
I will be really sad if I don't get the turtle. This has been a lot of effort!
I have used 14 Summer Bait (I have been buying them ahead), and got 3 goggles catches, one for 11 goggles , one was 14 goggles and one was 10. Out of the first 6, the last one was the first hit on goggles. I was getting worried. The drop rate made me feel a little better, but with the luck I'm having, who knows if it will be enough!
Here Turtle, turtle, turtle! I've got juicy tomatoes and strawberries for you! :D. Good luck all! Annie

I am feeling really grouchy about the number of duplicate decor items I have gotten. And also grouchy about people not reading the darn thread and asking the same thing that was answered three comments ago, on the same PAGE, like not even a couple of pages back. I am sure I will feel much better when I have a turtle on my farm, finally. Or maybe I just need a margarita.

This might be a duplicate question, but does anyone know if we can continue to use the pool shack to make the collection items after the quest is over? Or will it just become decor? Thank you so much.

Just did a bit of mining - you can now get flippers! I found one and it gave me 3 flippers, so it's similar to the fishing this time in that you get multiple :)

Mining: every time I hit the flippers I get 3. I'm hitting flippers about 1 out of every 3 tools. Just picked up 26 flippers with my tools and I didn't use all of them. Ran out of snorkels....

Btw, got my third turtle.

Newton122712

I'm level 19 and one expansion from getting the mine, which I won be able to do for this goal. It's frustrating to get this far but not be able to finish. I only had one special bait I bought from Stormies & I received no water goggles when fishing with it. I can't make the bait because I can't mine and no one is selling the ore needed. My question: if I were to get the pool shack this late in the goals, what items are needed to craft the water goggles and swim fins? I just want to make sure they are items I have or can buy. Thanks

Can you craft the items needed for completing the collection or do you craft only various pool toys?

orleansparish
09-05-15, 03:04 PM
Even if i win no turtles today im happy. I just got 100 each of salmon and tuna. Thats a huge haul!

I had 11 tools and 3 sets of snorkles. So 9 isnt bad. I hope they do every event like this from now on. Allowing multiples during the 2 hardest parts.

I will see how many hats I can get now and will then use my last 71 gems to turn in collections.

The odd thing is I bought the shack on another farm and had no time to play it! Im too tired now to make items. Gems down the drain but oh well.

You can craft all the pool toys (the items you turn in as a collection) in the pool shack. You can make the next item from the previous one. So for example, you can make goggles from sun hats and flippers from goggles.

Sandybellee
09-05-15, 04:00 PM
I've fished with 14 summer baits during the event and only 3 of them gave goggles. That drop rate is pretty terrible. Now I have 30 flippers from the mine (got 15 with just one hit) but no goggles or summer hats. Would never have been able to do this without the pool shack!

Edit: is there a tiki bar among the prices? And sea shell path? I saw them on someone's farm so I'm still missing those, if they can be won from the collections.

PookieBear50
09-05-15, 04:27 PM
Sigh...4 baits (2 from Stormie, 2 crafted) and all of them pulled in salmon or tuna. This is why I don't like the bait-fishing aspect of these events. First you have to wait 3.5 hours for it to craft, and then there's no guarantee you'll get what you're looking for. At least let us take our chances with regular baits instead of making us craft these special baits that all-too-often just catch the same thing as the other baits.

To team lava,

Thank you for the little tweaks that make this event different from the ones in the past. Gaining multiple goggle from one bait and 3 flippers from one mine instead of one item per mine/fish makes this event alot more enjoyable from previous ones. It almost makes up for the 3.5 hour bait craft time and the precious iron ore needed.
Finally, these events arent frustratingly impossible, now they simply require a bit of dedication, luck and maybe gems to get the desirable rewards.
Thank you, for giving me a reason to come back to this game.

Sincerely, a user who was very close to giving up on FS2

I really hope I can get more variety of decorations soon, though. I have enough of the pool loungers to furnish a cruise ship!

Finally got lucky on one of these events! Got a turtle after only 6 turn-ins, and a second one on the tenth!
The tweak to give multiple flippers/goggles with one tool/bait is the best thing to happen to these events too :)
Happy I partook in this one!

LadyFencer
09-05-15, 07:50 PM
I agree about the tweaks helping this game, especially the multiple goggles and flippers. I know the frustration of those who have not yet received the pet. That's happened to me in previous luck-based events. This time, though, I got two turtles within the first few collections I turned it. I was surprised at the first one, and amazed at the second. That's never happened before! Now if I could just put them into the habitat together to keep each other company.

09-05-15, 08:05 PM
I hope this will help, but we must drag and then drop the castle sand first after we won the turtle, because it will become the turtle's home. and then drag the turtle and drop him off to the castle sand. at first we will see him hiding inside his tortoise shell, so we must feed him to wake him up, and make him walking around our farm. i have just spent 20 of my pickaxes and shovels just to complete the collection and got my first turtle! i have no difficulties on fishing the googles, i have like a ton of googles. but can't believe it was sooo hard to get any hat from the plane deliveries and the fryer! i guess that's worth the price...or not?? lol :p good luck for all the players!

Try force closing your game, and shut down device, then re-open game. If it's still missing, email support@teamlava.com

You don't need to do anything special, but you don't get flippers every time. I had better luck with shovels, and got 3 or 4 pairs each time I got flippers, but I also got ores and coins. Just keep trying. (Unless you have tried more than 10, then you might want to email support (support@teamlava.com), and message game moderator).

On my first attempt, I used 6 bait before I got any goggles. The goggle drops are rare, I have only had 4 total, and used about 20 Summer Bait. The goggle drops have been 10-17 each time. Just hang in there. I didn't get the first one with the circling fish, either... Just the bait.



Hang in there Everyone who hasn't gotten lucky yet! I turned in about 26 or 27 before I got a Turtle. The flippers are dropping better than goggles, but in smaller amounts. With a few lucky hits in the mine, you can turn in multiple collections at once. Good luck to everyone still trying!
I will put Summer Bait out to sell as I make it, and anything else if they will let us sell parts.

If you haven't open your mine or you lack mining tools, you can either use 9 gem to buy a flipper or you can buy the axe package on offer atm.

Just to add, you need to get to fishing pond and mine for events. If you can't do this event, work on getting fishing pond and mine ready for next event. There are always lots of events in future.

That was listed on first page, post 2 (I think), since day one. So far, all these events have followed that pattern. I think they should say what level you need to be before starting! It also depends on which way you expand... And you can expand in any direction, there isn't any real indication of which way you need to expand.

The Beach Shack is the only alternative unless you can mine. It lets you start making collections from day one, so it really increases your chances. It isn't a bad investment to get a pet, but you aren't guaranteed one this time. I made lots of extra everything...I wish I could sell my leftovers...

It definitely took lots of attempts before I found the flippers. Keep trying with your mining tools. As another player suggested to you to email to support, if I were you, I would keep trying instead of stopping and waiting for support. It's weekend, non working day, and by the time the support reverted, you would had lost time. Remember you only have 41 hrs for this event. Good luck.

Yeah I saw that however in Dragon Story if players are a lower level, there are alternative goals for things like the Battle Arena (unlocked at level 30).
This was my first full event. I caught the last 5 days of the Sweet Retreat event because I didn't level up in time. I guess I naively thought there would be an alternative, otherwise why make it available if you haven't unlocked a mine?
It takes me forever to unlock land as the drops for expansion materials are really few and far between. I stalk the advertisements but only occasionally get lucky there.
Oh well! :)

Boah, the drop level for mining tools from deliveries is beyond bad for the last couple days. I guess i made about 25 deliveries and got 2 tools.

Edit: But al least 6 fins with 2 hits in mine and the turtle on the first return of a collection :D:D:D :cool:

I got my second turtle now too. I hope S8 resolves the sandcastle issue so that the castle can hold two turtles.

Got the turtle on the 38th collection. I would not have been able to get it without having the pool shack.

I've used up 3 of my special bait and I only got tuna! Is there a trick to using the bait and making sure it pulls up goggles?

No trick it is random.

I had to use 5 bait before I got googles and 10 mining tools to get some flippers.

Won turtle ... Took habitat out of cellar ... When I went to get turtle out I lost Internet for a second and both turtle and habitat is gone . Very frustrating !!!! Any ideas of what to do ?? I keep getting plenty of duplicates but no turtle 

Unfortunately all you can do is keep trying.

Before making any important collections on the farm (or in any S8 game ) ALWAYS force close you app and reopen before playing.

The app will load with the newsfeed box of gifts and this is a sign that the game is fully synced with the server.


If you just open an app which has not been forced closed and is running in the background of your device and begin playing it is not synced with S8's server. You can play on it but it will eventually synch with the server (usually see the chicken walking) and it may set back your game a few moments in time. If you had collected something in that time, it may not show as collected.

Sync errors can be avoided by force closing prior to playing and collecting. S8 can do nothing about sync errors as it is dependent on how you use your device.
