Update Dec 21st - Santa's Wheel

Hey Everyone,
Welcome to the last Update of 2016! We've been on a marathon these last few weeks fixing bugs and trying to make all the events bug-free as much as possible. And, because of that, we're also delaying some great content for 2017. So, next year will start BIG! In the meantime, we hope you have fun with this update's content and, of course, have a great holiday season.
The event in a nutshell
Santa has a plethora of decorations in stock, and he's offering you the ultimate chance to win some of them!
Donate Dollars and/or goods of your choice in order to attain festive stars. Festive stars influence the selection and quality of decorations you can win by spinning the wheel.
In case you have spun already and are not happy with the decoration that was selected as your prize, you can remove said decoration from the wheel and repeat your spin. This action requires a small gold fee.
The festive stars you have are reset after each spin, so you can again influence whichever decorations and quality levels you would like to use your spins for.
Prizes include a wide range of decorations! Spin the wheel to earn decorations previously available through different events and features, which are no longer obtainable through any other means. You’ll also be able to get all sorts of decorations with Village Happiness points!
Important: the decoration that will include Village Happiness points are considered on the system side as different decos, even though they look exactly like the normal decoration. This means that obtaining the decorations with village happiness will not unlock them in the Decoration Tower, but don't worry, we'll change this behaviour at the beginning of 2017.
Festive Stars
You can influence which prizes are at stake when spinning the wheel. Get festive stars and make sure only the finest decorations will be shown on the wheel before spinning for your desired rewards!
Donate Dollars, goods of your choice, or a mix of both in order to win festive stars.
Items to donate can be chosen from a dropdown menu. Amounts are regulated with a slider.
There is always a preview indicating how many festive stars you would get for your next donation.
Donations influence your progress on a gift meter. The gift meter determines the quality of the decoration rewards you will obtain with the next spin.
When hovering over the gift meter, a tooltip shows how many more festive stars are needed in order to unlock further decorations.
Cooldown system (new)
After each retrieved decoration, there will be a cooldown system telling you when you can spin the wheel again.
This cooldown will have 7 stages. Each stage corresponds to a decoration quality level. It starts at lvl 8 and goes all the way down to lvl 2. Lower level decorations have longer cooldowns and lower skipping costs.
lvl 8 quality decorations cooldown: 2h00m
lvl 7 quality decorations cooldown: 4h00m
lvl 6 quality decorations cooldown: 8h00m
lvl 5 quality decorations cooldown: 12h00m
lvl 4 quality decorations cooldown: 16h00m
lvl 3 quality decorations cooldown: 20h00m
lvl 2 quality decorations cooldown: 24h00m
after 24 hours you can spin the wheel for free
Example: If you choose to skip the cooldown for lvl 6 decorations as soon as it starts (after 4h01m), you’ll have the 7 best decorations lvl 6 on the wheel. If you do it at the end of the lvl 6 cooldown (6h59m) you’ll have the 7 worst decorations lvl 6 on the wheel. You can then spin the wheel or start donating to reach a higher decoration quality lvl (7 or 8).
Spinning the wheel
A range of 7 decorations is always displayed on the wheel.
If enough festive stars were achieved to unlock a new decoration, the last decoration on the left-hand side will be dropped and a new random decoration of the respective quality will be added on the right. While deciding the amount you want to donate, you can already see the decorations that will be in the spinning options.
As soon as you create a setup of 1-7 decorations to your liking, you can spin the wheel. A random decoration is then selected from the 7 available prizes.
If you are not satisfied with your prize, you may choose to remove said prize (lowering the amount of possible prizes to 6) and spin again, using gold.
This action can be repeated until there is only your favorite decoration left. Keep in mind, however, that each repetition will increase the amount of gold required for another spin.
When the update will take place will be communicated soon.
Have fun everyone! You can discuss all the upcoming event HERE ! ![]()
