I haven't found anymore tokens either since last night, and I had everything going until this morning, which means I had a LOT to harvest. Didn't find jack.
How do you know when you find a token? Do you get to see it like collectibles, or will it just appear in the Wheel of Fortune screen? Because I haven't seen any of the ones I got so far.
And before you ask, no I haven't had any drop for me either
It's a nice thought.
I never saw mine drop, but it shows up in the Equipment tab of your Inventory.
The tooltip says, "To find interact with: Wheel of fortune", so maybe you have to spin once before you find any more of them? And maybe the reason nobody has been finding more is not just that they're rare, but also because many of us were waiting until after we had collected several before spinning the wheel? (Edit: Nope; I'm wrong about that; I just found a second one without having played the wheel yet.) I don't know; just a thought. *grin* Sometimes I wonder whether the developers read the forums too, and point and giggle at our wild speculations before we figure out how new things actually work!
*edit*
I have NOT yet spun the wheel, so you don't need to spin to find new tokens.
it is the last half-hour before server midnight. Wonder if that has anything to do with it? (Obviously not, but the mind can't help trying to make connections)
The official announcement implies, but does not state, that you can only collect them while Monty is present at your farm.
On a plus note, I did get the scarecrow and 3 barbeques. :-)
Update: I have been informed that this is the 1st time for the Wheel of Fortune event. Please excuse my lack of knowledge as I am new here - I was merely attempting to make a simple observation and to add meaningful input this forum, which is why I added both the negative and the positive aspects to my posting. I apologize if my posting has misled anyone in any way and I hope that this update will correct my previous egregious posting. Thank you.
I am beginning to suspect that a glitch may have been fixed. Congratulations on your good fortune!!!!!
If I recall, 5 out of 6 of my jackpot spins resulted in a couple of rose seeds, one time a sunflower seed. The only thing of even mild interest that I got was a playground. But for 8000+ gold??! And I too ran my farm hard during this event, and never saw one free token (not that it would have made a difference).
Last time I ever participate in this one. Same with the "mystery box" for 250 gold. I always end up with garbage on that also. I came home last night from a 16 hour, long hard day (including a 5 hour round trip commute), and treated myself to this, and while a scarecrow would have made my night, this result more or less ruined it.
You shouldn't be able to get screwed like this when you are putting real money down. I don't spend gold often, and clearly when I do I end up disappointed, so why would I spend more? If I knew I was at least going to get what I'd normally get for spending that kind of gold, with the possibility of something more, then maybe they could get me to spend the gold that I otherwise wouldn't be spending. But knowing that there is a huge likelihood that I will not only not even get a typical value for my gold, but end up completely screwed over? Why would I ever spend gold again on events like this.
