Hi squirrel - yes, I 100% agree this is ridiculous! I wanted to suggest you might just make the lollipops, get a good sleep, and take the task and complete it whenever you wake up. Either way (trashing it or leaving it to finish the next day) will result - I think - in one less task the next day, as the lollipops will still be there. At least that is what is going on in my game. I hear your frustration, and echo it with mine! I am trying to treat it as a mystery to sort out, and that does help me a bit, as I decided to participate in the event. I think ignoring it may be pretty common though. I wonder what SC is seeing behind the scenes… Thanks. Yes, that was my first plan. But then there appeard the second task for the candy maker. And it was important to time cut. But I calculated wrong. I wanted to time cut all three. Was not possible, because there was no time cut left for the last one. And feeding animals was also a problem. Other tasks weren't ready and so I started the feeding task. But now every thing was blocked. And I had some tasks in the queue. And do you know what task I got? A third task for the candy maker. Yeah. Don't know if I should laugh or cry.  On one site I want to do my best and get as much points as it is possible (mostly to see if it is possible to reach the end). On the other site this event is so ridiculous that you only can smile at it. |

To my surprise this afternoon my board as given me only 2 at 100 the rest are just over 200 mark and 1 at 310. Is this a sign that tasks could possibly be getting big as the days go by. We can only hope ❤️

Hi squirr, do you have 15 tasks now on day 3? Because I already have 9 in queue + 6 since day 2. If not the case, what is your device? PS: you tagged the wrong frog previously. No need to tag me, it makes no difference. Oh, thanks. Ok, thought I should tag when I mention a name. Yes, I also have it since day 2. For me day 2 started with 10 tasks because I looked at the event just a few minutes after starting. At this point it was still 10. But during the day I realized, that I have already done some tasks and the queue still (or again) says 4 left. I was confused. First thought was - this is a bug. But then I read that it should be 15 from now on. So, 15 tasks since day 2. |

We can only hope ❤️ Mine was the worst today for first option tasks…just when I thought I was catching up I got mostly under 100 (80 and 90s) and one 160… I had to delete the 40 ! At level 191 it’s getting really bad to receive these tasks. I’m only just approaching 6k on points but not even close to be able to finish. |

I need a few players able to test a theory. It works for me on day 1 and could be a good tip. If you still have 1 task with low points and short time and you don't want to do it: - take the task and let it expire - the next day, watch the number of task in the queue. I expect the number to be 10 (9+1 expired task). If this works as expected, then it's a way to carry over 1 expired task to the following day. Very interesting. But what is the benefit of it? I think if you delete the expired task I won nothing. And if you want to activate it, its very expensive (was it 10 diamonds?). Or am I wrong? Is there something I misunderstand? |

That one is not a collecting 5 wheat bundles... it is feed 5 sanctuary animals 😀 My strategy for this event is to let my animals go on a diet until I finish tasks for the day.... I don't want to miss the chance to have them ready if I get lucky enough to get that task. Please let them fall asleep! There is also a 500 task for wake them up (5 animals) |

I bought a task yesterday, after all tasks were done for 10 diamonds. It was, wake up 5 animals for 500 pretzels. I might do this today as well.
And of course, I got my dirndl pig.

I am joining the frustrated group.... so many 80, 90,100 points. Made it just to the chick vouchers.  I did trash a few of those horrible tasks... like the 4 hats for 80, but the replacements weren't much better point wise. Feesadonkey for 100, 5 cows for 100. |

If you did two, then there should be 7 left (invisible) in the queue, and there should be 6 visible on the task board. Are you seeing something different! And yes, it is so weird and hard to sort out! |

Not enjoying this event 😟. All low value tasks, one for just 30 point pretzels. I have decided to try for the chick vouchers and call it day.

Yes, as explained from others this is correct. You have to count the tasks together. 6 tasks on your board. AND the tasks in queue. (9) At the beginnig of a day you have 6 on board AND 9 waiting just behind. You don't see them, they wait in the queue. You do one task. So one task from queue goes to the board. Now you have 6 on the board and 8 in queue. And so on. Until you have done all tasks. 6 + 9 = 15 |

Just the chick vouchers?
Thats great! Today is day 4 and the event says 4 days left. The chick vouchers are at 7500 from 1500.
I think you are pretty well in time, aren't you?

We can only hope ❤️ Not sure if it's getting higher point as days go by, about 10 of my tasks today are below 100. Let's continue to hope |

Heres where I stand at the halfway mark:  I'll be at 8,250 points when I've collected this last task today Just about on track to complete if the tasks hold up (and it doesn't just keep asking me for various varieties of jam 🙄) |

Thats great!
Over 8000 points!
I am really surprised.
How did you manage this? Did you take the extra task or was it fortune with the tasks?
I will be a little behind the halfmark today. And I only missed round about 400 points.

BauldersGate, you really don’t have donkeys? I just checked. ;-) I never considered not buying all the animals on offer.

BauldersGateThanks. Then I am hoping there will be better points for me in the next days. I don't have donkeys, too. And had to delete this task. But it is my farm and I won't buy donkeys or other things only because of an event. kantaYes, really crazy. But hey, it's weekend. And I did the same for my pig task last night.

And I only missed round about 400 points. I’ll be at 8250 today after I finish the last task. That was just luck. I’ve completed all the tasks without trashing any or carrying them over to the next day, and I haven’t taken any extra tasks. I share the feelings that most people have expressed about this event. It’s a chore, some of the tasks are impossible to do in one day, the amount of points (pretzels) given have nothing to do with how long the task takes, there are often two or more tasks on the same machine, and I’m disappointed in the rewards. The map is ridiculous, and for the amount of work that’s required, I’d expect more than one permit. Overall, what could have been a fun and rewarding event has turned out to be frustrating. |
