People are tired of the 2 energy drops

[CharmOfLea]

All said above is true. Example, I would have bought max pastel alis (yes, they are pretty), but the 2-energy drop stopped me. You fooled me with the Cupid Troll, S8. Gladly and quickly parted with the 200 gems, the most I have ever harvested were 3 energy. And that was just recently. That troll is slapping me in the face each morning. It?s the perfect wake up call when I start considering making a purchase. Better than coffee.

Many thanks to Meeka for raising the issue here! I?d also like to ask for a sign that S8 actually frequents this section of the forum. Will be appreciated.

Today all of mine new ones 1 Cupid 3 spring and 4 pastels Ali's drop 2 boy this anger me !!, this is crazy ,it's like we are being punished for vocalizing our opinions , thinking S/8 got to do something about this, I will not buy any more new Ali's until they change this

Same here. S8 shot themselves in the foot. They put the light on energy being the main game factor, with the max energy being stuck on 40 for years now and selling the alis for 600 gems. At the same time, they realize energy is not the only commodity in the game. In my opinion, the timed drops during events have gained the prime spot. It puts the pressure on luck and availability to check in constantly with the game (a threshold many working ppl can?t take). And for the untimed story tasks, 2 energy plus/ minus don?t make a dent. So why was it necessary to slash the minimum daily energy drops in half? It wasn?t, no reason, that?s my point. The only thing S8 got in return was customers’ disappointment and anger. In a free economy that?s usually not what you are aiming for.

I wish more people would post on this issue ,cuz it's just not fair I get angry when a 2 shows up ,that is only one energy,there was a survey the other day ,and this is the thing I mention , like sweet tooth I did not buy him for 400 gems when I heard about the 2 energy drops but I did the Cupid troll because he just was over 100 gems thinking 120 ,but can't remember then pastel we earned one in a quest and her frist drop was 100 , so I bought the extra 3 thinking the 2'energys have stopped that was a wake up call for sure ,S/8 will not see any money from me until it changes and if more of us felt the same way may be they would think of their customs , they make us happy we would make them happy ,

Yes, yes and more yes! The 2 energy drops make it so that I often neglect to even collect from the Cupid Trolls. When I do collect from all 4 I usually get 11 energy (on a good day) which is actually only 7 and ridiculous!

I know that because of this change I'm way less likely to purchase any new energy animals that are introduced from here on out. Before this change, I'd automatically buy as many as I could but that's definitely not the case any longer.

I'm sure we'd see a lot more posts that agree with this if people frequented this area of the forum more because I see a lot of posts sprinkled through all the discussion threads about this topic. I'm a regular forum user and I'll admit that I often neglect to check anywhere other than "Discussions" on a regular basis unless I'm reminded of it by someone else's post.

I know that I have no issue spending money on games when I feel it's for something that will enrich either my daily playing or my long term playing experience. Unfortunately until the minimum drops raise again, the new energy animals don't fall into either of those categories so I won't be spending on them.

This is how I have my bookmark so,I can see who writes where ,so I don't miss a thing

Happy customers and paying customer ,
I agree with every thing you said with the high energy events they have been throwing at us 1 energy not going to cut it I'm thinking the way they are thinking we have to buy more .when that's not the case we will stop playing. I didn't even buy sweet tooth 400 gems when I heard of the 2'energy drop , I would have , two things we need most in this game, energy and expansions ,I hope S/8 listen and changes this

Welllll, I just tapped on my Pastel Ali and got 100 energy. So there's always that chance, but probably really really rare or one time only.

[butterfly_25]

I surprisingly got 100 on my first click. Of course, it hasn't been so great since, lol.

[katbtodd]

Wow it must be the day for 100 energy drops
I have 4 springs from the Baron tent ,my first tap was 100 second tap 10 thought I was on a roll, third and forth tap both were 2s ,, Cupid Wow I'm so excited to report it was a 4 my pastels are not ready yet ,

Oh I'm sorry, that didn't happen today! Just the first time, at the end of that event.

I might have had only a few fair ones since then (4/5, 7, 9, 10...) and the rest are pretty much 2/3.
