The members of my coop have been getting gold today from this event. And when my members are happy, then yours truly is happy as well.
You only have to find the Leprachaun to take the prank off. The worst prize you get is another prank and another Leprecaun to find. Worth it for a chance to win 1200 gold and other stuff :¬)
I must be a poor chest picker, got another prank, but easy peasy to see on the Flower Farm
Then finally a treat, sparkled my apples.
I never did like the whole naughty or nice nonsense. Fortunately it seems not to many other people do either.
But now it's like every time I sit down to play. One of my somethings glowing with green stink and half my harvest is missing.
If there is some point to this I sure don't see it. Even looked in the forums and can't find a topic titled "hey we love to prank our players."
Frankly this has got to be one of the dumbest things you ever came up with. I just want to sit down and play a simple game, not have to start doing research TRYING (unsuccessfully) to figure out what is on your minds.
LIsten, just put a link to some kind of set of basic instructions will ya? Is that really so hard to do?

NO WAY anyone would ever just figure this out IN GAME though. And not everyone hunts and fishes through these forums. (I actually tried, and couldn't find a topic just for this.)
One person was good enough to send me a message directly and explained it a bit. I found the leprechaun (quite by accident.) And guess what I "won." ANother prank. Don't know where, or what, but I guess that's my "prize." Swell.
Found one on another farm. Says this time I won a prize. Don't know what, or where, but ok, guess I won something. Swell.
Your page helps. Now WHY don't they link to a page like that right in the event IN GAME somewhere????
Not buried in the forums, and not vague non instructions like they put everywhere in the game.
Click a question mark on a given event and land on a page like that? Spells everything out. I hope who ever took the time to compose that page got paid for it.
As for the "update announcements." Again are you talking about this forum? Cause I don't look here very often at all. Learned the hard way that pretty much every new thing they roll out will be confusing and buggy.
But this one I can't ignore when it's taking half my harvests. Especially while I'm trying to get through the toughest prize possible on the asian event.
Or that really dumb waste of space news paper thing that they throw up in my face as son as I log in?
I almost never wait for it to load. Just click it off. (When I have looked, it's pretty vague too.)
thanks!
Today I had to use the outline view and found him standing in the middle of The Mermaid Bay.
He can't hide long if you use the tools. lol
But… I came here today to copy the link Southern posted. The one coop that is active, (not one person answered me when I asked what this event was all about) anyway, I'll post that link there. Maybe someone will find this one fun. I'm just trying to get through the asian event and getting my piggies pranked when I need way too many of them, and didn't really have time to hunt for the stupid leprecheon was NOT fun!!!!!
I still don't see any great value in the prizes. I seem to either get pranked (what again?) or get some goodie, what ever, and I have no clue what, or where…. no sign of winning gold so far.
By the way, as a side note…. the THREE LEAF shamrock is the symbol of Irish culture, or St Pat's day.
Not the four leaf clover. (Though personally, the "lucky" clover is fine with me. Just sayin, it's incorrect as a symbol of ST Pats day or the Irish.)
By the way, I tend to AVOID looking at what's coming. Again… most new stuff this game rolls out comes with an assortment of bugs, not to mention no one at GG seems to own a calculator. I generally wait until something has been around before I get into it. By then info is easy to come by.
But THIS event doesn't make that possible. Either I lose have a harvest, or I have to go hunt and fish for the stupid thing to save my hours of crop. I do wish they would put an opt out by events. And that would stop all the stuff from flying out of fields too. Just give us the chance to skip this one.
That could also be a great way for them to monitor just what people keep turning off.
The end prize will not be useful to me as it is not going to end up with very high Happiness values. And I am not in a coop so I am not receiving Village Happiness on it either.
After the first prank, it said I won a treat which I never found. Second and third prank I found the leprachaun and found the treat (sparkled the same peach tree twice).
Now I have just spent 20 minutes looking for a leprachaun on Main farm just to harvest an apple tree. Checked everywhere, finally found him. If I didn't have enough time, if I was in a hurry, I would have been unhappy to only collect a half-crop of apples. Not everyone plays the game 24/7, some don't have the time to spend looking. The fact that this leprachaun was so difficult to find leads me back to my original opinion that pranks should not be a part of this event.
The hardwork prizes are not all prizes IMO. Although the Horeshoes and Treasure Chests are nice, I am not in a coop so I don't need collectibles. I have more special seeds than I will ever use, so they are worthless. I don't fish so I have no need for the bait or fishing XP.
It is nice to see some creativity in introducing a new event, but I think it would have been better that pranks were not involved. Since participation in the event is mandatory, (i.e. you can't opt out) perhaps a sparkle that is only activated if you find the leprauchan. You should not be penalized if you can't find a leprachaun. Some people opt out of the search events because of vision issues or time constraints,etc.
Edit to add:
There should have been clear explanation IN-GAME as I am sure some people harvested crops at 50% withou realizing it. Having the event start on the side tasks (Like No Pain No Gain) would have alerted players better than another bouncing exclamation in the overcrowded parking lot.
No matter how high my happiness points end up, I'll be saving this one for Greta to chew up. Pity, 'cause I like the looks of it.
Yep, I was waiting to see how long it would take until someone else noticed this. LOL!
Not either of their faults. It's the graphic artist who does not know.
Again… I'm fine with the lucky four leaf clover. "Luck" of the Irish don't ya know.
Besides, if you really want to debate it, Leprechauns dont really exist. At least both shamrocks and four leaf clovers do.
As for this game, the story goes it's lucky to FIND a leprechaun. I never ever heard that they can pull pranks and make farm fields stink.
Now… WHEN exactly is this event OVER???? It doesn't say how many days left like most do.
I got my peaches pranked. Found him, and my prize for finding him was another prank. This time cows. Those take forever as it is. And now I can't find the thing to turn it off.
I"m TRYING to get through the highest I can on the asian event and I think when that's done, I'm walking away from this until this ldiotic pranks event is OVER.
So…. any clue when it's over?
Fert this time. But this time he was standing right on the grass.
GUESS what I won. PRANK!!!!!
Searched again… FINALLY I got something other than another prank. Gold clover leaves. Big deal.
GG this was not one of your better ideas here. At least the naughty nice event is easily ignored.
Running an event that directly and negatively effects another event also running is just mean.
Can't wait for asia to be over. I'll check in for my coops sake, but that's it. I gotta get away from this for awhile.
When I signed on today the Leprechaun had pranked me. I found the affected field and cleared it. I then found the Leprechaun and was awarded gold glovers.
The graphic says I still have a prank on me. I have checked every farm and harvested/cleared all buildings. Can not find a prank and can not find the Leprechaun again.
Anyone have the same issue?
