First of all, I belong to a neighborhood which is so chillaxed we don't communicate with each other during derbys, even the Bingo Derby which may need some coordination among derbyists. We didn't so I was amHAYzed we got a single derby line years ago!
Now we just got two derby lines by completing 10 squares and I'm amHAYzed again. Looking at the completed tasks, I noticed most squares asked for one task instead of the usual two tasks. There's a good chance we'll get the third line if a production task or town visitor task were to pop up.

The less members choose to enter the derby, the more the required number of tasks per square decreases. In a NH with many active derby players is usually very hard to complete bingo lines without proper communication and coordination. When I played derby I decided to go solo for a while to be able to complete the bingo lines achievement. It was much easier and relaxing to play the bingo derby that way.

Following up on my OP. A hoodmate who derbys regularly shared in chat that derby is giving us "nothing" for the two bingo lines. And do we just need points for more rewards?
Stunned, I explained we get a reward for completing a bingo line for a maximum of 3 lines. Another hoodmate just completed a town visitor task and we got the third and final line! Yay us.

lynnk2021 No, not at all. You and your hoodmates got lucky. Just came across about a thread in which players are complaining the opposite. Trashing about 1,500 (!) tasks and the desired one won't appear. I intended to share the link, but the title of the thread is in conflict with our forum rules since there is a word which would be considered inappropriate. But, believe me, it's no fun anymore. The reason why my sister-in-law and myself quitted a long time ago. Prior was a time when Bingo was enjoyable but that's not applicable for the recent and current Bingos. Always a chore. My time is too precious to waste it for something like that.

I play solo and I am down to my last task which is an asparagus crop task. I have yet to see it even after trashing many , many times. I will get one Bingo line, which is fine, but this particular Bingo Derby feels more difficult to me.

I will get one Bingo line, which is fine, but this particular Bingo Derby feels more difficult to me. Solo can be very challenging for Bingo as you have a limited number of tasks to work with. Crop tasks have a very low probability, and if you have some high probability squares still open (trucks/boat/fishing/mining/help/general town visitors), even though they may not be in a bingo line you want to chase, those tasks will keep spawning and reduce your chance of seeing the crop tasks. With more people in the NH, more tasks are available to take care of these squares to eliminate them from the bingo task pool. |
