VF - score calculation



Can any1 tell me how the info '1170 minutes per 4102' is used to calculate 'Score earned through active booster' = 14773  ??

4102 is 10% of required amount to earn 25% booster but i  cannt find 1170 min anywhere on the challenge.

    They still haven't fixed it. It should say "1,170 SECONDS per 4,102 units", not minutes.

    If you fill the bar, you'll get 11,700 SECONDS of booster added to your next challenge(s), until it runs out.  11,700 seconds = 195 minutes.

    I'm really confused how this calculation is supposed to work.  Please look at the first two screen shots.  We have bonuses on both corn and citrus fruit, but the citrus fruit bonus isn't credited on the right under "Challenge Support"?  However, there was a bonus calculated a couple minutes prior to this first screen shot for the citrus then it disappeared.  The third pic is of the finished challenge, still showing no bonus under orchards for the "Challenge Support".  Am I reading this correctly?

    And another thing if someone could answer this for me please?   We are 100% complete on this one, do we keep collecting to get more bonus time on stables, fields, etc?

    @SuzyQ22 (US1)

    Ok, follow along with me here, this gets kinda convoluted.



    There's 4 things to be concerned about here:

    1 - This is the amount of TIME that the BONUS (2) is active.  Since there is no time on the clock, you can ignore the 44.75%, you're not getting this bonus.  It's only valid when there's time on the clock.  This time can be won in the (previous) challenge, or you can buy it through the booster shop (at the cost of 100 gold per minute).  Additionally, this bonus doesn't help you collect the (corn), it only gives you more points for the corn you do collect *while there's time on the clock*.

    2 - This is, of course, the bonus itself.  This is the amount of bonus points you're getting for harvesting corn, while there is time on the bonus clock. 

    3 - This is the amount of additional bonus that will be added to your bonus percentage in the NEXT challenge.  So when you do another challenge, instead of a 44.75% bonus, you'll have a 45.25% bonus to your field crops. 

    4 - This is the amount of TIME you'll have on your bonus in the NEXT challenge (or challenges, until it runs out).  So on your next challenge, you'll have 25:00 minutes of 45.25% bonus to your score for harvested field crops, and a 12:30 (12 minutes, 30 second) bonus of 35% to your orchard crop (since you didn't add any additional bonus to your orchard crop this time around).

    You "Earn" the additional bonus percentage as rewards.  For instance, Reward 1 for a challenge is 10 pink fertilizer, Reward 2 is +0.5% field bonus.  So for everyone in the co-op that wins Reward 2 (the field bonus), that number (in #3) will go up from 0.5% to 1.0% to 1.5% to 2.0% and so on. It's cumulative, so the more people that participate (and win the bonus) the better, as it raises your bonus higher and higher..

    You earn TIME on the bonus (in future challenges) by going OVER the mid-way point. For instance you've completely filled Corn, so you'll earn the maximum time in your next challenge (in field crops) of 25:00 minutes (I thought it was 30 minutes? Maybe they changed something).  You haven't hit the midway point on Milk yet, so no time will be added.  Orchard is around 75% full, so you'll get 12:30 on your next challenge.  Fill it all the way up to 100%, and you'll get 25:00 of time.

    Does that make it any clearer?

    Keep collecting, period.  The time will eventually max out when the orange part of the bar is filled, but you'll *continue* to earn Cooperative Score and Personal Score for every donation, even if everything is maxxed out.

    @Southern (US1)  I have another question and it is regarding the Challenge support rewards.


    Please pic #1  It shows I have earned all 4 rewards for the challenge support, and I have done this on quite of few of the challenges.



    Now see this pic below, it is of the information provided under the tent in the parking lot regarding the stats of the game.  This shows I have earned "ZERO" Challenge Support rewards.  Should I have received something here?





    So, I have earned the Personal Hard Work rewards so far of 25/50.  But I have zero earned from the Challenge Support?  More confusion indeed.  Thanks, Suzy!

    Edit to add:

    Also, if we have already done one challenge, and I have earned all the Challenge Support rewards, but others weren't on when we played, do they get to earn the rewards although I cannot earn them a second time?  Just wondering if it is worth doing a challenge more than once to allow the others players the opportunity to earn those rewards?

    I can answer those two questions for you @SuzyQ22 (US1)

    First - In the second picture that shows you have earned 25/50 Personal Hard Work Rewards, and has the pane that shows 1/100 Challenge Support, the Challenge Support pane is only meant to show the full list of all the available rewards 1-100 possible to earn if you choose an 'very long' challenge.  It is not meant to reflect how many rewards you personally have earned.  This is because you can earn those rewards over and over again during each challenge.  The number that you could earn in each challenge is based on the length of the challenge.  You correctly identified what Challenge Support rewards you have earned for the current challenge in the first picture.

    Second - After a coop has done a challenge the first time, regardless of how many members earned rewards during that first attempt, no challenge support rewards will be awarded to any members if the coop repeats the same challenge.

    Thank you for the insight, I appreciate it.  Suzy!

    Now if I can figure out why this forum wouldn't let me post in the "White" portion of the post above?  How do I delete that one as well?

    @SuzyQ22 (US1) I deleted the post for you & I suspect that your question is asking about being stuck in the "quote" box & unable to type below it, if that happens, all you need to do is, click on the </> icon on the toolbar (to switch to HTML view) and at the bottom of the text you will see </blockquote> just type <br> after that and click the icon again, to switch back to normal view. - your cursor should then be in the white section, below the quote box.
