I am giving up on this event. The progress bar is going up way too slow and the skins are just not worth all this effort.

Did they change the progress bar quite a bit from the previous similar events? It's such a struggle to finish each day now. I think I'm about to give up, too.
You have to get to one hundred percent on the progress bar to win the prize of the day!
Day 1
Five bee order 22 percent
Meaning if you do five ....five bee orders
You get today's prize.
Five ...five bee orders would equal 110 percent and no you can't carry to next day.
Each day the task bar starts at zero.
Day 2
Five bee order 16 percent
You would have to do seven five bee orders today to get today's prize.
Day 3
Five bee order 12 percent
You would have to do 9 five bee orders today to get the prize.
Four bee order 10 percent
Three bee order 8 percent
Two bee order 5 percent
0ne bee order 2 percent
Day 4
Five bees 10 percent
Three bees 5 percent
Day 5
Five bees 8 percent
Three bees 4 percent
Two bees 3 percent
One bee 2 percent
Day 5
Five bees 8 percent
Three bees 4 percent
Two bees 3 percent
One bee 2 percent
Day 7
Silo day
Five bees 6 percent
Four bees 4 percent
Three bees 4 percent
Two bees 3 percent
Day 9
I didn't pay much attention but believe
Five bees were 5 percent down to one bee giving 1 percent of task bar
You would have to do 20 five bee orders today to win the prize
In every fair event
the amount of orders you have to give increases each day
and you get less points in the task bar each day for the items you give.
Tomorrows skins are worth five hundred gems so if a five bee order is still worth five percent of the task bar...
Then you would have to give 20 five bee orders to win the prize!

Only 3 % to go for day 9 and then just tomorrow to get through! This one has been tougher than previous county fairs but I think that's because I have more difficult items available now than before (sauces for example). Good luck finishing everyone!
[] I used hard earned money to purchase the beehive boost ... 1st day it gave 3% boost ... Yesterday noticed it was only 2% AND TODAY IT IS ONLY GIVING 1%. Why do this? I will never again spend a PENNY on this game. I don't mind doing it when everything even ... But when they change the rules in the middle of the game ... That's just plain wrong . Like I said... NOT ONE MORE PENNY!! Would appreciate someone passing this along to the higher ups ... If tables were turned they wouldn't like it either.

Before you get more upset, let me explain how it works... What you collect from the beehive boosts remain the same for each collection throughout the event, but because the progress bar increases for each event day, that's why the percentage drops. So it isn't as what you think, your boost is working as it should be. Hope this helps to make you feel better.
Umm... No it doesn't ... So what u are saying is ...when we MOST need the boosts that's when we get the LEAST help ?? Ridiculous !!
The amount from the boost doesn't change; it is the progress needed for each event day that has increased. Likewise the a 5 bees order on Day 1 has a higher percentage value than on Day 10. The boost helps in some of your progress compared to not having a boost at all. But you will still need to deliver some orders. You can collect as many times as you need while your event day is open.
I am really trying to understand ... I see what you are saying about the amount of orders needed go up each day ... But when I start at a 3% boost on day 1 and today at 1% boost ... How can that not be seen as the boosts not changing? If amount to finish day goes up, boost amounts should certainly not go down ... I truly don't understand . It is what it is I guess ... But lesson certainly learned !
Ok let's talk in terms of number of bees. For example, you get 100 bees each time you collect from your boost.
Day 1 requires 1000 bees, Day 2 requires 2000 bees, ... Day 10 requires 10,000 bees. So in terms of bees, your boost gives you 100 bees per collection consistently throughout the whole event. But when you calculate that to percentage to the bees required for each day, the percentage does drop because the daily bees required increased.
When viewed in percentage, there are 2 maths values in the calculation.. bees from collection / daily bees required. It is the latter that increases.
