I did the same spent about 200 gems to try and finish and I can not. I am so disgisted I will absolutely NOT be playing the next event nor will I be buying any more gems. Thats it, I am done. Good work Storm 8 and happy thanksgiving to you too 😠
Energy wasn't the issue with this event. I've got 33 weekly Alis and many daily droppers. If you couldn't play the game every two hours and had bad luck with drops, you were doomed.
I don't see why it would. You aren't swearing, being mean/snarky, name-calling, etc. You are expressing an opinion. If we didn't speak out about how we, the customers, react to the game, how could they improve without spending $$$ on "focus groups" or "testing groups" or other things businesses spend money on to get customer feedback? S8 supports the Forum, which IMHO is a smart way to get customer feedback. If they didn't want our 2 cents worth of opinion, I don't think we would have a Forum. So we say when we loooove things, and also when we don't.
I too am so disheartened. I think this says it all -
I was playing Mahjong with my family when my alarm went off. Sorry, I have to do this a minute.
What HAVE TO. This has to stop.
Without interrupting daily life this wasn't possible.
HAVE TO isn't the same as want to.
Yes I finished, I bought a package and used lots of gems to hurry the piggies.
Have promised myself not to do this again.
Was the gift from S8 meant to just rub salt into our wounds because it was too late to be helpful to anyone (or maybe somehow convince people to spend more money)? Or do they really not understand their own game and thought it would be helpful? Either way, really, really sad.
Well its quite disappointing
Been working hard to complete the event. And realised i would be no where near finished
The last few days has alarms going off to remember to collect but its not been enough
And really its a bit much to do a whole event like that. Maybe i would have finished if i did but yeah its too much
I like the variety in castle story events and things. Theres a lot to like in the game.
So please make the events doable
But its no good if the events are too hard to complete
I got stuck with poor drops from the mines and took too many days to complete that part
So well i hoped we would get some extra days on this. Or better drops. But nope.
Had i known earlier i might not have bothered attempting this event
If the next event is as hard i might throw my hands in the air
I like to enjoy doing an event, not become a slave to it.
Its supposed to be my entertainment.
I see I'm not alone in not being able to finish this event. I usually do--been quite a long time since I haven't completed an event. I have been pretty busy, so I didn't take the time to calculate where I was & what I still needed, etc. I wish I had...could've saved a lot of time, trouble, energy, & of course, gems. I finally realized last night that there's no way I can make it unless I buy a bunch of furs & twine. I have everything else done. What a waste! I'm so mad at myself for doing all these tasks instead of spending that time doing more important things!
I should have realized early on that this was not doable for me, unless I spent lots of gems. Like others, energy wasn't the problem for me. Just not enough material dropping to craft what was needed. I hope S8 learns something from this so it won't be like this again!
I?ve been wondering what the gift was that people have been mentioning. Well, with 42 minutes left in the Wee little pig event, my gift showed up. Really helpful at this point in my game.
Didn't finish. Not enough time to get the required number of swine twine as the collecting the Armor Shine took up way too much time.
I did finally finish this event-by the hair on my chinny, chin, chin! I did have to gem my last fur thingy-I got it in the workshop about 15 minutes before the end so I thought "I have come this far, I might as well finish even if it means spending gems. I am not even sure what the prize is? Is it the piggy cottage, the piggy walker or what? I sure hope the cottage has some decent drops!
