OMG I am so happy. Best day ever! I am at level nine still waiting for enough sprinkles for my last royal sundae before I can upgrade. I purchased gems in the sale today and used them to speed up the ICM so I could upgrade as well as get enough gold coins for the Swirlicorn and sprinkles for Sprinkles! I now have my Swirlicorn and she is beautiful. I also have Sprinkles. Was so happy to accomplish that today. Thought now I can concentrate on the trades.

After a few more trades I was so excited to receive a Sprinklepea! A little while later I checked out my Baron?s tent and there was a Faerie Alicorn! Awesome!

Thanks guys for all your posts. I don?t write often but I am here all the time to check up on you guys and see what?s new. You guys are great for keeping us updated. Thanks for all your help!

Here is a couple of pics of my sweet new additions. Come visit me!

I visited you and you really have a gorgeous kingdom!
I wonder how it plays with so many energy supplies, I just can't imagine being able to do anything I wanted.
Great your gem spending resulted in the best day ever, money well spent I would say! Thanks for sharing.

Thank you. I love my kingdom. Yes I have a lot of alicorn. I am obsessed by them. I am hoping to get a white one from my trades. That would be the best!

Oh lovely! congrats!

I received sprinklepea when I upgraded to L10 so she's settling in nicely. I'm working on gathering items for the other 2 and will gem a bit towards the end of the event if I haven't been able to get enough materials. I really like the look of the icecream buildings.

Thank you Spiritwind. I always appreciate your support. Sprinklepea is the prettiest thing. I love her! I love the buildings too! I’ve already set aside and decorated a corner of my kingdom with them along with Sprnklepea, Sprinkles and Swirlicorn. Going to go for two more Sprinkles as well. Hoping for a white alicorn with my trades!

Does the swirlicorn also drop golden chokolate coins, anyone?

Yes! Though the truly great thing is that it spews a jillion-ty things in one collection. I went for Swirly and Sprinkles first, now I?m concentrating on building upgrades and all the extra coins I?m spending leisurely on trades. But holy moly I have every shrub on earth.

All of them.

They lifted their ice cream roots from the earth like long skirts and slinked their way to my realm. Check your realm to make sure they didn?t abandon you. I have a blue one. I got yer turquoise. Step right up for a pink. What?s that you say? You need a neon yellow one? I got that, too. But you know what I have so many of that I could puke? The brown. If I lined them up side by side they would wrap around the earth seven times. So I?m really hoping my next trade is something ELSE or at least a shrub that my father would be proud of. Come on, S8. Heal my family.

Oh dear God, one of these days this forum will cost me my job! It's really not a good look to burst out laughing in the middle of a quiet office because I've been reading funny stuff on the internet during working hours! (Just kidding, my job is safe, my boss really doesn't care if I'm online every once in a while.)
bfstone, you're the funniest!

Okay, I lost my patience and decided to go for the swirlicorn and bought the booth to boost my golden coin amount. Hopefully not a costly mistake.

Upgraded to level 10 and my mystery prize was...3 shrubs. :/ I feel a bit like Charlie Brown on Halloween! ("I got a rock") Oh well. Saving up gold chocolates and candy sprinkles now for Swirly and Sprinkles. A question though...My ability to craft ice cream and the regular sundae are gone, but Royal Sunday still remains. Can anyone tell me why? Is there some other use for the Royal Sundae (besides upgrading mountain) that I've been missing?

Wow! I feel like I am so far behind! I am almost ready to upgrade my ICM to Level 7. I am still usually only getting 1 bronze coin upon collection & Sprinkles still is not spawning @ every collection--more like every third. It seems like everyone here is already at Level 10, with a Swirlicorn & Sprinkles already. I am not doing any mystery trades until after I craft my Swirlicorn. And with my spawn rate, I don't see Sprinkles in my future.

And with my spawn rate, I don't see Sprinkles in my future.

I even bought the second pack Plus the Sweet Tooth Booth(got that right off) and am at level 8/9. And I gemmed a bit to get there. Hardly any spawns in any of my queendoms, except from Fangbeasts at farmhouses (which I often have stopped collecting from, because I got maxed out on cup of sugar)
I hope I get the swirlycorn, my drops are usually 1 bronze coin. No way will I get a Sprinkles, at this rate.

not really having fun with this one. I regret getting the booth; I doubt I will get enough to even try for a mystery box. I think in future, it's best to wait to see if one is in the "poor drop rate" group before spending gems. Unless you don't mind spending over $10 for the prize.

ASweets really had the best strategy.....$5 in gems early on, to upgrade the ICM, seemed to be the thing to do. What a great strategy! Now I know what to do in future!

IMO this event was more about luck in spawning & getting multi drops from sprinkle beast & ICM as opposed to having energy. I haven't used my Ali's up, even skipping some dailies, because of the limits of the ICM spawn, and inability to store more than 99 of Event drops. (cup of sugar).

For those having trouble with logins.....I turned on the music this event to make sure I didn't have a monster parked before collecting from the ICM. I have noticed a definite lag before the game will load. So I am shutting it off again after this event, and removing walkers. I have an iPad Air that I just game/browse internet (no streaming media) so I barely use the processor power available.
