    I agree!!! A timer pop up is a great idea, I kept forgetting to check it as I was also trying to complete the Asia event. I agree that completing this one was an unattainable goal, there is no way to keep up with it to earn all of the prizes.
    Especially for those of us who work full or part time, even some that are retired couldn't get the last prize.
    I too like to be able to complete an event and tried my best, while still trying to complete the Asia event and having to go work......alas so sad no way to complete it. :(:'(
    I completed the last one, but just barely after finishing the theme event. Good choices on the prizes!!

    also thanks for all the great prizes but i think you made it a little to hard even the top person in my level catogroy does not look like they will be able to get the last prize so i would understand if you have to make it like 1 gold mining linces instead of 3 but i personaly like to be able to complete stuff and this right now seems imposble to get all of them thanks for reading this

    I agree with you. I am not a high level player, but I would say I am an agressive player :). Even in daily tasks it is often very difficult to complete some of the tasks because they overlap. The hardworkers event was a perfect example of this. I also like the idea of a popup to alert when time is running out rather than having to click back up to the icon. I had so many specials and "exclamations" hovering I could not see some of my stuff or click with out clicking something else. We had a cooperative, the Asia event, and the hardworkers event going on. Plus regular missions. No way to keep up. I took an R and R day yesterday just to see if I could meet the demand... had the screen open all day and at midnight was only on level 34 and had to quit. Using gold is not an option for me. I was thankful for many of the prizes because they helped somewhat to advance in the events.

    We are all talking about the hardwork events.... and the difficulty in trying to complete them. Some take only a short time before the funnel moves over, and others go for a greater length of time. But, while harvesting the goods and working on other projects, it is quite easy to forget to look back at the hard work icon to check time. especially when we are working on theme or other events.

    I really enjoy the no pain no gain. It was good for the smaller farms we did not have to compete with the larger farms. Let's do it again.

    the hardworker event is quite new - it's another way to earn prizes to use on your farms - you'll see an icon appear just above your farms where the other event icons appear - as always, move your cursor over it and you'll see it's name - click on it and it will explain what happens. as with all events, it's optional- try not to get caught up in spending your gold - there's a time limit for each item it requests - eventually the time limit expires and a new product will be asked for - because you're just starting, don't be alarmed that you might find it hard to supply. and you can be assured that you're not giving away any of your contributions - the event just records what you produce, and rewards you for it. so, just have fun with it.

    Let's have the hard worker event. It would actually go hand in hand with the new market.

    Hey BabskendrickUse,

    I'll have to ask, have you started the event by clicking the green button at the top left?

    Else the tutorial will be shown first, showing how the collection would work, but not counting the goods you harvested.

    Regards,
    Steffi

    I think some people are experiencing enough of Vicky`s bad driving, with the Market truck trashing their farm borders. :p

    Same here except my start was milk dumped 2407 of milk and got nothing. Costantly having stuff dissapear and reappear after multiple reboots thanks ggs you have a lot of issues. Another event shot thanks. I'm at the point where I don't even care if I get an answer.

    PS I hit the start, Dumped all my stuff and got zero points wasted enough time now to wonder if I should bother to try in another 6 hrs.

    i have had no problems with starting or with freezing but I have noticed that time is being shortened when I reach 3/second. I was my understanding that this would happen when player hit 6/second or so. I was ranked in 700's. Since I can't maintain more than 3 pnts per second for that long - I have fallen in rank to 1200's today. I doubt everyone does not have this problem or I wouldn't be falling in ranks so much. I have cleared cache and restarted but still get same thing. Whether it corn or eggs or dandilions (which by the way is all I have gotten to produce - has asked me for nothing else but corn, eggs or dandelions) - anywho - whether harvest is corn, or eggs, or dandelions, still once I get to 3 per second - the time start getting less. This is way too early for this to happen. Anyone have any suggestions? Why? how to fix? etc.

    just edited to note that I have a 4th harvest request now. Wildflowers just showed up as next in queue. Since I still cant get past 3 per second with timer decrease - those will be very short indeed.

    In the hardworker event, there needs to be an overall average of your pps throughout the whole event. Sometimes your run at 5 or 9 or 3 or 6, but you need to see what your average is throughout the event, so that after a day, you could know you have averaged 5.91 or whatever. This way you can try to compete against yourself.

    You should then show those numbers in the ranking on the ranking page. And you should be able to see all players ranks like with other events.

    I do this separately instead of edit so people can see time has passed. If it gets edited oh well. Just wanted to say that went to bed for a few hours. got up and wild flowers were done - I saw cabbage for machine. have done one harvest of others and waited till done to get cabbage under funnel. Used cabbage special seeds with seaweed to get it started. Went to 3/second and 4 hours on timer. Did another field cabbage with seaweed to get to 4/second and the timer went down to 338 so the part about timer decreasing when I get to 3/second is still going on. I hope this is not the new normal. I will deal with it cause I have no choice. While I am glad to have something else beside corn/eggs/dandelions, I won't be working as hard cause that gets me nowhere fast. Sad to see an event titled Hard Worker - that, when one works hard - they are penalized. I didn't mind it when timer decrease around 5 or 6 per second. I understand why GGS does that. But to not even let us get to 3/second before timer decreases - and then give us crops that we can't sustain long with decrease in time, it is hard to work hard. I will stop with the updates here - seems there will be nothing new to report anyway.
  • It says Rank 6-50 players in silo event will be rewarded with gold mining license
    I am currently at rank 1 and it says kite for rank 1.

     
    Will I get the gold mining license if I end up with rank 1? Please do let me know!

    Thanks for answering!

    You are probably seeing 1 point per second, not rank number 1. If you click the little ranking box at the top right (above the kite picture) it shows your rank. Only the top  player will get the kite, but you will get some prizes as well.

  • Pretty sure someone could answer this for me but I've never dared find out myself. For the skip box option in the silo event- does that automatically add in the remaining points you would have had for what items were left in the funnel? Or do you lose those points and move on? I'm not asking about what was already earned but instead about the skipped part. Ex:

    I have 40mins left of jasmine running at 5/sec. If I use 100 gold to "skip" the box do I get the 12k points that remained in the funnel or are they wasted? Depending on the answer it may affect how I play this event...
  • Thanks for replying though but I am at rank 1 with 300000+ points.

    My question is : For ending up with rank 1 will I get Gold mining license or not? Cos it  for rank 6-50 right?
  • Honestly, it would seem that you don't get the license. The phrasing says only 6-50 whereas the wheel of fortune where you get everything below it is written as 1-5, 1-50, and 1-500 indicating that top places still get lower rewards. It may well be a misprint (as you and the other top 5 certainly deserve that extra license) but the way it is written I would expect you not to get it.

    Yeah it looks like if you are ranked number one, you would get the kite and not the gold mining licence. That is strange. The top ranked player on my screen (US1 server) has 643,00 points right now

    Keep in mind MRG that you are only seeing the rankings for the lvl 65+ group (as I'm also in your group) so they may be in a lower tier but still in 1st. And can we get a community manager to clarify this question for us? Not relevant for myself but important nonetheless. @WascallyWabbit  Thanks!

    Thanks guys for a quick reply.

    Wondering if any Mod / CM's can confirm about this question? :)
  • Is the hard worker event not letting anyone else click on it? I tried on the event icon to see how many points i have, or whats the next reward, or the next item the needs to be collected and its not showing me. I tried going to my different farms and i tried logging out and back in and it didn't work
