    Once you get the deco do you need to find the last few pumpkins? I still need to find 3 pumpkins for today but I get a message (can't remember what it said) but it was in an orange box and the found pumpkin didn't decrease the amount I need to find. 

    Do we need to find the last few?


    Edited title | Cuddly
    I have also problems, after finding 1 pumpkin i get an error message:
    Ongeldige ID

    Support-Info: 
    Command: PBEpisodeCollectandsearchepisodeSearchFoundResponse
    ErrorCode: 3
    Timestamp: 1477894745
    Zone: 22
    PID:565354

    When i restart, i have found every pumpkin and i also received the deco. When i click on the event it flashes.
    Can i presume i have found everything today or do i have the chance to do it all over again later the day ?

  • l also have this problem ..  my screen darkens and nothing will work. this only happens after l have clicked on an event .so now l cant see my progress to finish the event,

    Oh, okay thanks, I didn't realise I was done!
  • I am having this same error/flashing thing. I am trying to finish collecting the candles, supposedly have about 12 hours left, and about 1000 candles yet to collect to go, but now all I get is an empty flashing thing, and my candles count is gone. I would really like to know how I am doing on the candle collecting, and whether my candles will be counting through this error glitchy thing... Also, what is "In Besitz"? See screenshot...
  • yes same issue over here, on 2 farms, even the other players in the coop. 

    And i can't open a other event, because de game will not return to the normal play stattet. Have to log in and log out all the time. 
    The issue started with the pumpkin error. 
  • yes same here on aus1 server - most frustrating as I have know idea how many candles I have left to collect on main farm, and yes I have ctrl f5 but nothing changed.  With only 3 hours to go and no end in sight I fear I need to stop harvesting and hope for the best - perhaps that deco for all of the hours I have already put in...GG?

    Look forward to hearing from you

  • I am also having the same problem that Suzie Farmer is experiencing with the flashing screen and my candle count is gone. I completed the pumpkin collection on Saturday so I stopped with them. But I know I don't have all of the candles and yet I can't see how many more I need. I also have the invisible line with fishing.
  • i,m having the same thing as everyone else please fix this and credit our items lost .. I   really did want the decos       both and got only one
  • Same thing here.

    I didn't miss any of the first ones and now it has hit the lowered number for the prize and this pops up.
    Collected 2 more but only one registered and now the same error on each farm.

    same for me.I cannot do anything cos this comes up
  • I am finding pumpkins and when I click on them, I get a error report and I do not get credit for finding the pumpkins.
  • My game has been acting up since yesterday! It won't collect items, the Halloween event icon keeps flashing when I try to open it, and it won't log out properly. 
  • I keep getting the error code whenever I try to collect pumpkins.If I use gold it takes the gold but then puts up the error code yet again

    Hi..I have found the 315 pumpkins and now I when I click to on the icon to see how many candles I have collected, the screen shakes and it is talking about me collecting eggs NOT pumpkins. Then when I go to another farm, my screen dims and I have to start over.  I tried hitting the ctrl F5 to refresh and it does not work.  I hope the candles that I am collecting are being added to my count.  I was about 2000 away.  
    Thanks.

    @SheilaC4 (US1)  Everyone has had that issue over the weekend. If you have found 315 pumpkins then you have the final reward for that part of the event. If you haven't completed the candles not sure what to tell you about that as I haven't seen anything mentioned yet. To read up and follow along with this issue you can read this thread

    My issue is the same as Suzie Farmer and others - I completed pumpkins and figured out what that business was all about (though I am a bit miffed that they lowered the count and didn't tell us - I spent quite a bit of gold tracking down pumpkins).  As of last night I needed less than 1,000 candles (I was very excited, I thought there was no way I'd get close and now it looked like I was going to finish it after all).  This morning I finished the aloha event and went to check my candles and got the flashy screen.  I have tried the game on 3 different browsers, tried the ctrl+F5 thing - nothing works - still flashing.  I've submitted a ticket to support.  I was really hoping the update earlier would have fixed it.  Considering my clock has about 4 1/2 hours left on it, I'm not too confident in this getting a fix. 

    UPDATE - The candle drops must still be counting because despite the flash error still going on I just got awarded the haunted house.  Hopefully this is the case for everyone - keep trying!

    In Besitz is German for "In the possession of" so it's relevant, if weird.

    I just wanted to know how many more candles I need or if I'm even close but like others have reported here, my screen strobes out and has zero info for the candle count. When I try to go back everything dims and I have to back out and open the game anew in a different window.

    "Hi Everyone,

    The bugfix that was run early in the Halloween event, changed the number of pumpkins required, to win the final reward, from 350 to 315. This means that if you collected all the pumpkins for the first 9 days, you will already have 315  & will not need to collect any pumpkins today"

    So does that mean that when you have missed the first day that you are not able to finish the event? Because that is what happened to a coop member, she has 313 pumpkins and has found every single one for the lasta 9 days ....
  • I really liked this pumpkin hunting event. It was much more challenging than before :D Congrats for the developing staff! Greetings from Hungary :)

    Hi @grace1970 (NL1) could you check with that member to see if they have the reward the "Gruesome garden pond" deco? If so then they are done with the pumpkin part of the event.

    IMPORTANT INFO FOR THOSE WITH FLASHING Halloween event info-box:

    If you are experiencing a 'glowing' or flashing information box when you try to open the Halloween event to view your candle or pumpkin count, try going to another farm (not main) to view your event information.

    I have the flashing/glow and empty info box on main farm for the Halloween event (as described in my earlier post), but the problem is not occurring on my other farns, and there I am able to access and see candle count!

    Good luck in the game to you all  :)
  • Hi @grace1970 (NL1) could you check with that member to see if they have the reward the "Gruesome garden pond" deco? If so then they are done with the pumpkin part of the event.
    Hi Data King, no she didnt get it, because she misses 2 pumpkins (313). And i know she hasnt missed any the last 9 days, because both i and another member have helped her with finding those things.
  • I had about 250 candles left to get on my main farm.  Now when I check this comes up:

    I go to my 'box' where I receive new even items, and nothing is there.  I am still collecting candles, but I have no idea how many more are needed to complete the event.

    It does show I've accrued all the candles, but again, nothing available in my 'flag area' for me to choose nor in the event decoration.

  • As previously noted in my screen shot in the above post, it says I met all of the candle criteria.  However, I just received a popup asking if I wanted to spend gold to meet the requirements.  What is going on?

    OK, everyone had the same errors after the hotfix. One item I didn't see in there was the lack of animation on the horse farm after the fix. On the other farms you could click a pumpkin and it would "fly" up and be counted. On the horse farm after the fix the pumpkins just vanished. Click - gone. Then if you "finished" the game the pumpkins did that on all the farms, with the first one getting counted and the second generating the error code and flashing panel.
  • I noticed that no moderator is responding, which fine. But i think it is rather weird that if you miss the first day of pumpkins you do not get the deco, but if you miss the last day you do get it...

    I seriously hope that BF is going to look into this, because it is not fair.
  • @grace1970 (NL1)

    Hello grace:)

    The post you quoted merely indicated that an adjustment was made to the event after it had started.
    Originally we were meant to find 350 pumpkins in total but because of some discrepancies in the numbers of pumpkins found by different players, this total was decreased to 315 (to allow everyone the opportunity of still finishing the event).

    It was a very generous allowance because whatever discrepancies existed at the start of the event, no-one lost out on 35 pumpkins in the first 2 days unless they did not actually look for and/or find all the pumpkins that were available to find on their farms.

    So if a player ended the event with a total of 313 pumpkins found, that means that during the event, they missed finding 37 pumpkins, regardless of whether it happened on the first day, or the last day, or any of the days in between.

    Regards,
    Rowdy

  • I found all 315 but it still stated I needed 350. There were no more pumpkins for me to find. Then the game ended and stated that if I wanted the deco I had to pay coins for it. I'm about to give up.
  • @Rowdy Rac
    Thank you for your explanation. Now all I have to do is tell a disappointed coop member that there is no way she can obtain that deco.

  • HEY GG…. I want my money back.
    I finally PAID to find the last heart on one of my farms.   I thought you didn't put them RIGHT ON ACTIVE BUILDINGS!
    Well here's the screen shot of where this thing was.   RIGHT ON one of my houses.   You can see the house highlighted with my curser and the heart right on it.

    Come on now.  They are plenty hard enough to find without cheating.  I already paid to find a few, (good spots you had.)
    But this one isn't fair.
