    Holding my breath and crossing my fingers and toes that this low coin count is either the 2-day week (HeritageLady) or a mistake.  My suspicion is that it has something to do with the way the strange-math adjustments made for smaller servers.  The results posted by Rowdy was surprising to say the least with US1 ranked third from last, especially seeing the top server.

    By the way, where is the WW Wheel of Fortune.......it has been a week?
    Not comming - to make it all more fair
    I thought that it was coming, but awarding coins, not points.
    Regardless whether it comes or not, the last WWC, it did not show up until near the end because we were all mad that we worked hard for over 2 weeks so others could jump in and spin to win.

    As I recall, last time the WWC started on a Friday, so we got our weekly coins on Friday.  This time it started on Wednesday, and we are getting them today.  I also remember that the first week's coin total last time seemed very small.  But each week's allotment grew, because they were figured on your accumulated point total, not just the points earned that week.

    i got mine wwc medals but only 900? i made 155,000 points. last time i got about 4,000 medals for this amount of points. did they change this? do we need more points for the medals? 

    with this rate it takes long to get enough for a kite or any of the nice prices.




    further i see much oftopic posts in this topic



    I think you are pointing  in my direction.  I'd like to know what is off topic since this event requires fishing and I was having a hard time finishing one of the tasks to get the points?

    If only there were a forum, or something like it, that they could use to clear up such confusion.................
    @gavinfarms (US1)
    You really crack me up sometimes.  However, this is so very true.  I come to the forum looking for answers and sometimes they are just not here.  And I say the exact same thing to myself. I don't blame the mods one bit in any of this, this is not on them. GGS does what they do at the end of the day or on the weekends, leaving us all in the dark.  All the mods can do is wait until the next business day and try and get answers for us.

    Calm down everyone. The first week was only TWO days (11/1 and 11/2), as the event started on 11/1 and the first week's results were posted on 11/3! We did not have any weekly event points or island points those 2 days as well. The amount of coins you get for the 2nd week should be normal, as it will be a full week (seven days).


    I believe you are correct, as last time each week ends on Thursday, point computations and coin payout on Friday.

    This first week (week 1) was actually 2 days, November 1st and 2nd, Wednesday and Thursday respectively, but while the calculation of the points was done on Friday the coins were assigned late


  • sally456 (US1)sally456 (US1) Posts: 196
    At the moment I have 41k points and got 350 coins today.  A whole lot of work for only 350 coins is rather disheartening:(

    Makes me wonder why did I bother......

    Hi everyone, 

    If you do not yet have your coins, try relogging as that should make them show up.

    I see most complaints about the number of coins are from US1 players, we have not been told that there has been any changes made to the way the coins are calculated, so it is most likely the ranking of your server - at the end of week 1 last time US1 was ranked 5th from the top & as of last Friday it was 5th from the bottom, we will have to wait until tomorrow to know where you were ranked at the end of week 1, but as players from other servers are not posting that they see much of a difference from last time, I suspect that is going to be the reason.
  • grrr (NL1)grrr (NL1) NL1 Posts: 664
    i think you're probably right Wabbit, I don't see a big difference to last time, but then the NL server is consistently low ranking :D

    @grrr (NL1)  I see that AU1 were much higher on Friday, if they have stayed there the AU players must have much better coins than last time. :)

    UK1 must be way down too.
    last time I earned 5,000 over the event, this week I earned less than 500
  • WascallyWabbit (FormerMod)WascallyWabbit (FormerMod) Guest Posts: 6,097
    We should get the ranking list to post tomorrow, but we will also check to make sure no other changes have been made. I am pretty sure there haven`t been, because the CMs checked if they are still affected by the server ranking (which they are) so they would have been told if something had changed.

    Is any INT1 players receive their coins? I didn't get it until now.

    Still waiting for 'delayed' WWC Coins.

    @WascallyWabbit I try to relog and clear the browser's cache, neither of them works.

    @WascallyWabbit

    This is an extremely insufficient answer. Proper communication means actually answering the questions that we ask

    First, were these points just for Thursday and Friday or were they for a full 6 days? (7 days had not yet passed.)  Please answer this directly and let us know how many days these points were for.

    This could dramatically effect how people view this. I got less than 600 coins. I am 14th in the rankings of the highest bracket. I have heard from several really robust players in my coop. None of them received 400 points. All were less than that. If these coins are for a whole week, then cancel the event. It is utterly pointless. This is not hyperbole. I will not make enough points to buy a single Winter/Tropical House over the entire event. In an average run of the temp farm, I can buy dozens. This is just stupid.

    I am frustrated that GGS might think that I am always negative. This is not the case.  I often champion their side. But as I have noted, the poor communication, from GGS to us, has reached a problematic status. If one were to look back through the history of my posts, I have been positive a vast majority of the time (more positive than most). It is just that lately, the communication has been so very poor.   It is not me that has changed!   I cannot express just how badly that I am hoping for GGS to get back to better communication. I like the game and I am rooting for it too succeed.

    Hey @gavinfarms (US1) Please be a bit patient when expecting an answer from us. ;)

    I posted the results of week one on Friday & mentioned that the coins would arrive on Wednesday so the coins received were probably only for the the first week as the 2nd week hasn't ended yet. We will have to wait until the team is back in office to confirm that. We'll let you guys know as soon as we hear anything.

    What I find strange is that the coins are awarded at all, before the definitive method for server ranking has been decided.
    As far as I remember coins were awarded for points scored mulitiplied by a factor according to server ranking.
    (and remember @Byron Longford (AU1) 's outrage ;))
    Has this changed?

    yes he and his wife no longer play big farm  sad when they lose people who once loved the game  lots of nice people have left the game or have adjusted their play time.

    Yes, but please be clearer. What is defined as the first week?  Is that just Thursday and Friday?  The server results were posted after only two days.  We need to know how many days were accounted for by these points.

    Also, when you are speaking with the team, we need to know which type of HW is next?  And what day and time it will start?  If it is to be the CoopHW, we need to know.  These Coop events require some planning.

    come on guys..... does it matter that much to have 5000 or 500 coins at once? if that is the case, are u guys then playing the right game?

    i mean if it is all about winning, have the most, being the biggest, dont want to lose to someone who is smaller than urself, is this really the best game to play?
  • ddsshhvv (INT1)ddsshhvv (INT1) Posts: 39

    I agree with you @Tinzen (SKN1) !
    I do have some questions though, why are events so "muddled up"? What I mean is, in october we had cooptober with a coop hard worker that had nothing to do with cooperation, I've got a sneaking suspicion seeing the reward structure that it wasn't fully developed and just turned out as an individual event where scores were added up, now we've got an individual event where large amounts of WWC points are given in the coop championships.
    Another player and I are the only two players in the top 20 from lowly coops, the rest consists of players from 6 gold league coops, at the end of the CC both of us will slide down again.
    I know you can change coops, I've been asked numerous times to join high ranking coops, but I like where I am :)
    I fully accept getting less rewards in coop events, doesn't bother me at all, just don't see why it should affect individual events. (i'm talking about CC rewards, not about the coop points scored while farming or playing missions, they're fine)
    Surely it's in everyones interest to keep as many coops as possible "alive"?

    But as Tinzen says, relax, it's a game!

    PS Wanted to add, the rewards "along the way" are rather excellent!

    @Lylu (INT1) @apple pie (INT1) & others, as it appears that there are several of you on INT1 that have not got your coins yet, please could you all do support tickets, so that they can check out what is happening to you all. Thankyou :)

    Okay, now WoF for WWC appear and still offer free points on spin. Would be happy if regular spin only influence WWC Coins instead.
