A couple of minutes ago I got an ad for an immediate barn upgrade. It would give me the exact number of bolts and planks that I needed for a total price around €30,-
so far nothing suspicious. I kept on wheating and every time when I collected a plank (I have a wood farm) from a drop I took a look at the ad. What I would never expected happened. The ad was adjusted, planks down by one, bolts up by one for the same price. I continued wheating, got bolts and planks, took a look at the ad and saw that the total numbers of planks collected was reduced from the original offer, and the bolts increased.
two things: - the game knows exactly what your are doing and what you need and adjust to it. - an offer that was original offered for a specific period for a specific product (x number bolts and x number planks) was adjusted during the period that the offer was there, because I collected planks.
i took several screenshots to back the above.

How fascinating, I have long suspected that the game knew what I was looking for when I searched the DD🤔. I have not had an offer like this and it will be interesting to see if they become more common.

I have not had an offer like this and it will be interesting to see if they become more common. It’s not only the offer itself, but that when you collect something by farming that they chance te original offer. I gained more planks and bolts and the price got lower, but the number needed also. i had these offers before but didn’t analyse them the way I do now. i love research with regard to big data and the specific mechanisms.

I’ve noticed that before.
Well, not sure whether I noticed the changes in amounts, but I did notice it was offering exactly what I needed.
Thought it might have something to do with allowing personalized ads/offers. Isn’t there a setting for that?

I regularly get these “instant upgrade” offers for my farms that are below 1000 barn size and below level 30. Yes, the material you collect is counted and the price is reduced accordingly. I never ever get “instant upgrade” offers for my farms that are above 1000 barn size and above level 30 even when I need little material to complete a barn upgrade. If you got the offer for your farm that has reasonably big barn capacity and/or high level, that’s new to me. Could be good to know based on what the offer appears (barn size ?, level ? etc.)

Correction: I now checked these farms and saw that "personalized offers" are enabled (thought I had disabled). This may probably be the reason. although “personalized offers” are disabled. - You can disable “personalized offers”: in-game under “advanced settings”, scroll down = the last part in the end (hope understood correctly).

I don’t mind the personalized ads, I do mind that an offer gets changed during the period that it is valid. The first 3 times that I checked the ad after I had got additional planks with wheating the number of planks dropped and the number of bolts went up (also collected them with wheating), but price remained the same.

Thanks for the info ducktown2021 Good to know that one can still get this instant offers for high barn size/high level farms (they are handy for me depending on the price when lacking just a few BEMs to complete an upgrade). Perhaps, it is about enabled/disabled personalized offers. Strange: To my memory, the price changed (reduced) when I collected BEMs. But when I get such an offer, I will pay more attention to the price if it is reducing or remaining the same when I collect BEMs, and write back.

Fascinating. Thank you ducktown2021 for sharing your insight that the game customizes special offers for our barns. A followup question if I may? After the recent optional update to fix the daily deal offers, are the offers still customized for your specific barn need? TYIA.
BTW, may I ask if you were a member of the defunct Supercell forums but used a different forum name than ducktown?

Hello lynnk2021 , I haven’t had an additional barn EM ad yet, but I will let you know when I do and if it’s still the way it was. On your second question, no.

Yesterday I had an instant barn upgrade offer on my main farm (level 216). It started by offering 63 bolts for £14.99, which would give me an upgrade. Planks and tape had already been banked, so I needed just bolts.
As the day wore on, and I gathered bolts, the offer changed, and the price reduced. Here are some offers along the way:
59 bolts for £13.99 52 bolts for £11.99 40 bolts for £9.49
I transferred 30 bolts from a baby farm and the offer changed to 10 bolts for £2.49. When I transferred a further 10 bolts the offer disappeared, even though it had over an hour left to run.
I installed the optional update before transferring bolts from the baby farm, and it seemed to have no effect on the offer.
I hope this is helpful.

Thx Cowslips, this proves that the game knows what we need. The strange part when I did the “test” was that I only had the tapes banked. The planks went down on the count when I collected some, it the bolts went up. So the total of EMs offered in the beginning stayed the same, while I needed less planks and bolts than the offer showed me.
The first offers stayed the same in price, but the amount of planks went down and bolts up, but I collected both. I would expect that the offer would go down in price, and the offered EMs would always match an immediate upgrade like the first offer.

I've never received one of these and personalized offers is on on both my farms. My baby farm gets regular diamond sales that I usually take advantage of, but no upgrade offers. My big farm very very seldom gets an offer. It is always the 4000 diamonds when I do get one.

It's on. I even turned it off and then on, but nothing yet. My baby farm gets them a lot and most are really nice offers.
