What kind of derby this week?

Lily77

That would be very nice. This time I'll save the info so I don't have to ask in the future. Perhaps ducktown2021 may have some additional information.

donkeyfan and ducktown2021 the below is what I have found (mostly about champions league) and I think it is still accurate (esp. reddit):

Expansion permit:

"Expansion Permits will only appear in derby prize columns 4 and 7, so if you opt to spend 5 diamonds to reshuffle the derby prizes to earn Expansion Permits, remember not to select a prize in columns 4 or 7 prior to shuffling as these are the only two columns where it is possible to be awarded Expansion Permits" (wiki hayday - expansion permit - strategy tips).

Same information on reddit.

This is also my experience if my memory is correct: expansion permits appear on columns 4 + 7.

- This means that novice league and rookie league can never get 2 permits even with shuffling, as the number of the columns is 6. Correct?


Puzzle pieces:

While the info regarding puzzle pieces on wiki says "random", a post on reddit states that "For regular derby, you can get permits on columns 4 and 7 and puzzle pieces on 3 and 6. It is for regular, blossom and power derbies. For bingo and bunny derbies, you can get permits or puzzle pieces on all 3 of the extra columns..." (a post in reddit that can be found under the thread "Shuffling derby rewards", not stating the author).

What is stated above from reddit is also my experience so I assume that the info is still accurate (I have no account on reddit so I do not know if one can see a more detailed discussion on the issue if one is a member).

- This means that novice league and rookie league may get 2 puzzle pieces with shuffling, as the number of the columns is 6. Correct?


Deco:

I think that the info is a little bit old but very detailed:

"You can get decos on any of them, except maybe 9. For the Olympic themed ones, you can get the gnome on 1 and 5, the flame on 2 and 6, the podium on 2 and 7, and the obstacle on 3 and 8. Some of the older decos will also show up occasionally" (a post in reddit that can be found under the thread "Shuffling derby rewards", not stating the author).

ducktown2021 it will truly be great if you can get an opportunity to verify or adjust the info.

Lily77 , see my posting above yours. 😉 indeed CL.

Yes, that’s correct. That’s the reason that people don’t need to place top3 necessarily but always top12 so they stay in the CL to be able to get the number horseshoe thresholds within reach to collect the six items.

only thing is, as long as SC brings extra animals to the sanctuary and expand land we will need them for a very long period. I gave up on them and focus on the decos that I would like to have.

I want to join Lily77 on this. Your hints are helpful indeed. Thanks from me, too.

There was something liberating about just taking tasks and not caring too much 😆

All above 300 point still but only 2 320's in the mix because they happened to show up

And one 400 mystery at the end (chilli farming)

I could take one more 400 mystery with diamonds and get the last column which is currently not obtained.

But I don't feel like it this week😅

Still have a couple puzzle and an expansion permit in the reward mix so I'm happy 😁

Thanks ducktown2021 ducktown2021 this is very helpful.

I have been taking 400 p tasks until now because 300 p - 320 p tasks rarely appear (can't spend time to login frequently to fresh the task board) so I may be demoted either because of really hard 400 p or low point tasks.

So far, strangely, the tasks follow a kind of pattern for my farms. Summarising for 2 farms: 1st day: mine + help; 2nd day: town + animal feeding; 3rd day: fishing + production. No 1 although I am taking it easy so I suppose the tasks should be pretty long for the other teams and they are also taking it easy.

donkeyfan as you said, the tasks are pretty much based on luck.

Edit: I forgot to write - if you get an opportunity, it will truly be great if you can write the 400  p tasks that you got. I will do that after I am done with all the tasks. 

Here comes the tasks for 2 farms. Sorry - I thought that there was a kind of pattern but there is not as I can see when I list the tasks. Placed no 1 - most tasks below are easy timewise. I am not sure if the tasks have become easier timewise or I was lucky in this mystery derby? I do remember extremely long tasks in the previous mystery derbies such as bacon + goat milk + goat milk one another, and that's why I dislike mystery derby.

Yes, there were 4 tasks on the board. When I compare the tasks done by 2 farms, you may certainly be right, 4 tasks are not the same - none of the tasks for 2 farms has the same nature (production, mine, help, truck, town, fishing, harvest, combo), e.g. task 1 is production for farm 1 and mine for farm 2. There are some tasks for farm 2 that have the same nature (3rd + 4th = help; 6th + 7th = town; 9th + 10th = production). I must have taken town tasks and production tasks after the board refreshed as town and production tasks take some time (except help task because I always try to keep some trees & bushes in another farm for help task).

I will pay attention next time when we have mystery derby.

Farm 1:
- Production: 24 raspberry muffin
- Mine: 72 ores
- Feeding: 167 animals
- Mine: 95 ores
- Town: 19 visitors
- Combo: 15 help + 13 town visitors + 117 animals
- Fishing: 92 lbs
- Fishing: 75 lbs
- Mine: 58 ores
- Harvest: 250 potato fields

Farm 2:
- Mine: 66 ores
- Harvest: 255 pumpkin fields
- Help: 20 help
- Help: 22 help
- Truck: 24 truck
- Town: 12 visitors at the gift shop
- Town: 7 dancer
- Mine: 93 ores
- Production: 20 blue wooly hat
- Production: 7 sweater + 16 hot chocolate + 7 pumpkin pie

Next derby is Bingo...

I opted already out...

3 extra rewards, just prep well and you should be good to go, but I understand your choice.

Ducktown, may I ask how many times you had to shuffle? (It's ok, if you'd rather not say). That's one of the deco I was hoping to get. Only shuffled once, and no additional deco showed up.

Twice. First shuffle the permit on the right showed up. I selected that one and reshuffled again. Than the permit on the left showed up and the deco in the right row with the puzzle piece.

I already had that deco,  but still……, I also had gnomes in other rows.

Because I wheat a lot for the drops and to please my daily traders, I get a lot of mining tools I use to get the diamonds for the shuffling (if needed).

I understand Donkeyfan, I don’t do mystery derbies at all.  I will most likely do the bingo one though.
