    I would be hugely surprised if that energy drop is correct.... that is likely a coding error. Be prepared that it might change to a weekly collection timer when they return from work. That is not a B&S as it has not been advertised as dropping that amount a day.

    If you're just a few Drool's short (near the end), try to speed up the Spring Garden. it only costs 2 Gems, and you'll get a guaranteed Drool (keep in mind you have energy to fight the donkey's)
    Don't buy the stuff outright in the Spring Garden 'parts needed' overview, or skip in the goal, that's much much more expensive.
    Don't give up, we still have 4 days. Good luck!
    that's if i can even get the game to load. sometimes i spend 10 min just trying to get the game to load. i will collect from my fawn's and none of the 3 will spawn a donkey. so very slow going.
    i will be in the middle of fighting a donkey and the game will crash. then it might take another 10 min trying to get it to load to continue. i have plenty of energy, i am not worried about that at all.
    doesn't matter if i am on my android phone or my ipad. and it doesn't matter if i am using wifi or my cell data=this game won't load

    @SW-is the team looking into why so many of us are having trouble getting the game to load?

    Awww I was beginning to get hopeful on a big energy dropper, now I'm sad, lol

    I can ask the team about the crashing for sure... I'll do that now. My board has been clearing quite a lot again so I've made some changes on my device and it's a little better. As we know minimising items with animation and citizens does help too. Given the new land, it has had an impact for some of us.

    Adventure gem drop frequency has not.

    I agree w SW, not a bait and switch. People who finished early got a bonus and the coding will likely revert to as intended. I put off completing because I wasn't sure if I wanted another rooster, so I missed out. Oops! : )

    Random thought: the only way I would have a baron on my board would be if he dropped 40 energy a day! Or maybe was the equivalent of a gold mine. : )

    Edit add- and empathy for everyone w those loading and reloading issues!! That's really tough!

    Done!
    The finished Spring Garden is very pretty, and I LOVE that the Gardener is actually watering it (or something else, depends on where you place her), great animation!
    I've made 1 Rooster, 1 Donkey, and 10 Goats.
    The first week was a bit pushing it of what I'm willing to do for any game, but I enjoyed the past couple of days.

    I appreciate there were no bugs in this event, well done S8

    Good luck to all players still participating in the event!
    Don't give up, there is still time, and speeding up the Spring Garden is a cheap way to finish, if it looks like you won't make it.
    The prizes are worth it.

    I have been having this issue all weekend also, but today it's much better. (Over the weekend, only spawning 1 per every 7-8 fawn collections. Today, they are spawning every 2-3 collections). I only need 2 more potions (14 more drools) to finish.


    Also, can anyone confirm that the mystery item in the Garden Shed (locked by goal item) is not really anything? Something for the future maybe?

    The question mark is nothing. Every event crafting building has it as a placeholder, and it never turns into anything. I?ve completed the event and it does not turn into anything for this event either.

    And there is still a possibility that you'll have to gem speed some collections. Math s****s may be required. Lol.
    Wow, my magic garden isn?t spawning donkeys and my fawns are barely dropping them either. I don?t see how I?ll possibly be able to gather enough donkey drool to finish this event!! Unfortunately I can?t check into the game every hour to spawn donkeys since I work, there really should be another way to spawn them?
