What a great attitude! I think the mining will be the most challenging part, but I am on challenge 4, and there are still 10 days remaining. I encourage all of you to just play the game however it makes you happy. You could easily ignore this event and play normally, stockpiling for the next event and selling to your friends and newspaper! For me, the pets are worth working hard for, because they give me tools, gems, and expansion parts! The coin machine is just a bonus, but I think I will get it done!
Given that mining is such an obstacle, it makes deliveries that much more important! Keep your machines running (except save ALL METALS), decline orders that are not fillable, and keep that plane in the air! It will also help you churn out the clover, because they are needed all along the way.
I am on 4 now, and from goal 5 on, I figured we will need:
20 iron
10 silver
8 gold
60 dye
37 wool
16 emeralds
Plus other things like flour, bacon, etc.
Good luck everyone!
I agree. Just keep playing since there's lots of time left. I do not purchase gems with real money but have been able to complete many events. As people complete the game, clover, dyes, clover gro, wool, white sugar, apple cider, green gems etc will show up more often on the market.
I guess they totally forgot about players who didn't get the pot of gold, which drop gold ore every 2 days or so from 2 years back.
And... I'm still stuck at step 2 of 7. =.=" The hot air balloon is asking for lucky clover!!! *facepalm*

Well this is ridiculous, I have some spare tools that I was saving for when I have to mine during the event, but considering that the mine is being so difficult I will use them now and sell off any extra gold I get. Hopefully that will help people stuck on the 3rd goal (I'm on the 3rd goal still too but just waiting on cake)
I'm nowhere near these numbers yet but I'll sell off any spare of any as soon as I have enough
EDIT: I think I may have been a tad optimistic, these drops rates are indeed horrific. I've gone through about 60 tools and still don't have enough gold... On the plus side, I have 23 spare silver if anyone needs that later ._.

I had so much luck just now, Iʻve sent out 4 deliveries and got 2 coins!
I've been mining again, totally fed up now. I have 23 silver, 12 iron and 3 emeralds but not a sign of any gold. Not one pair of shoes made so I doubt I'll be finishing this event. I've also been in the newspaper for the last couple of hours and not one gold in there either.
