GOAL: Basketball Madness - March 31st, 2023 (5 days)

Based on a previous 5-day goal, it looks like the prize will be an Echo Sweet Shot Oven appliance. Since it's a prize, there's only one made available, unless the team will be offering this appliance in a future sale.

I did note the (mostly negative) feedback on the last 5-day goal about the appliance-as-a-prize, but it always helps to have some numbers, so I'll be adding a poll to this thread to gather more community feedback on this concept.

EDIT: The poll is live, and will close in 5 days. Votes are anonymous and the poll is multiple choice (you may vote for more than one response).

Each participant is allowed to vote only once.

I did/will not finish this goal. To me this one is no reward for us players at all.

I suspect they will be offering this 'PRIZE' appliance for sale for gems at some point. I don't want to try to master recipes with only one appliance. And I definitely don't want to be buying appliances for gems. Too bad I didn't see this ploy before they played it with the gas stove. At least I didn't fall for it twice.

Can anyone explain the echo appliances? I just finished the goal and got this oven which is exactly like the sweet shot ovens I already had. Just like with the gas stove from the last challenge. The only difference is the recipes are unlocked again so you have to start over.

I actually like that we sometimes get an appliance for finishing a 5 day goal.

Echo appliances are a way for players who missed the original release to be able to access the appliance and its recipes when they would otherwise remain locked indefinitely.

I don't mind the echo stoves as prizes for the 5-day goals, especially if the other option is a 1x1 floor deco, but it would be nice to be able to buy multiple to make leveling the recipes easier.

Poll is now closed - thank you to everyone who voted :)

The thread will remain open for comments if you would like to voice additional feedback.
