    i do not think the point here is to compete i think the point is to get as many points as you can so you can get the highest level of happiness points possible in less you want a useless decoration also to try and get all of the hard worker prizes but it would be nice to know if there is a happiness cap on ether of them

    The pot of gold is bugged! Myself and a few members that won 1,200 gold have not got it yet. I was so excited to win it only to find out I didn't get it!

    I have not another leprechaun in 9 hours now.

    On the ranking rewards, I find this more and more frustrating.  Since I know that I will not be in the top 10, competing in this event is almost pointless, is it not?


    Unless you're really into flags and think you can finish in the top 250.  LOL!
  • Thanks!! Has not been green since my first prank tho. Think its bugged:(

    I don't understand the negativity with this event? You get prank'd once every five hours, find the leprechaun, open a pot for a chance of either a 100% production increase, a prize (which could be gold), or another prank. In which case you find another leprechaun and get another chance at getting a prize, production increase, or a prank. Wash, rinse, repeat.

    What's wrong with that? :/

    I don't get it either. The event itself apart from the pranks asks u to farm......god forbid any of us have to do that! Some ppl need to lighten up.

    Let's just agree not everyone shares the same idea of fun.  I don't hate the event, but if I did hate something here, I hope someone wouldn't be telling me to lighten up.  Peace.
  • Just got pranked!!! Couldnt find the sneaky guy,with at least a minute left on the production. LOL whats the point in looking?

    It seems the leprechauns pranks are truly an opportunity to gain in harvests or gold.  The trick is to make sure you locate your prank and find the leprechaun BEFORE you harvest.

    Okay I am going to ask, where are the Clover's for us to find?
    So far I have only seen maybe 1 or 2 Leprechauns , is that all there is to find? , I ask this cause if it is up to the fields and such for them to show up, then I will be waiting forever for everything, I thought we were suppose to be able to find stuff for this event, not just sit and wait for fields to finally be finished, that is just to boring for Me, sorry but that is how I feel bout it, I want to be able to enjoy the event not wait for paint to dry so to speak.

    The clover's pop out of our fields when we harvest.

    I was hoping they were like the balloons and such that we have to find on our Farms, not wait forever to pop out when the fields are finished, guess this is going to be one boring event for Me since My fields take forever to finish, oh well.

    Every 5 hours a leprechaun will prank one of the three main farms, and then you have to hunt him down on the same farm he prank'd before harvesting to get rid of the prank, but that's about it for things to find during the event. There's a chance you will get another prank when you select one of the three pots after finding a leprechaun (where you will have to find yet another leprechaun to clear it), but it seems to be mainly about collecting hats and clovers.

    Can someone explain this?  I must be missing something.

    I got a "prank."  I then found the leprechaun.  I clicked him.  The window opened.  I chose a pot.  Then the reward was an "up" arrow with a Leprechaun picture and the words "Leprechaun Treat!"..........What does this mean?

    The "Treat" is that he sparkled one of your harvests on one of your (random) farms with a 100% sparkle (doubles production on that building). 

    You need to have animations turned on to see which one it is, and you have to check all 3 farms.

    It means that the leprechaun has boosted one of your production buildings or fields by 100% for that one harvest. Look for one on one of the three main farms with sparkles around it - that's the one being boosted. I just got one for my field of lamb's lettice.

    My question is though: does the boost stack with humus or premium/super feeds/fertilisers? I used a super humus on my lamb's lettice, and hope it's not wasted due to the leprechaun boost?

    That makes sense.  A field of jasmine was twinkling, but I got no karma point.  That would have been it.

    A fellow player told me he got one of those Leprechaun boosters as well but after open it the purple hats stopped popping up from the fields and from that moment on he gets only golden clovers.
    Also all the Village happiness points disappeared...
    Is this normal?

    I just discovered something interesting.

    I accidentally harvested a cowshed that was pranked without realizing it was pranked before I clicked on it (in Non-Animated mode, there's just a hue/glow around their building that's still hard to see)..

    Even though I harvested the (pranked) building, and the "Arrow" disappeared on the menu (that would show me which building was pranked) because I had already harvested the building, I was STILL able to find the leprechaun and click on him - and he gave me 400 gold. :)

    (and yes, I checked my gold count before and after, and he DID give me the gold (some people have had trouble with actually getting the gold to credit, apparently).

    So nice little tidbit there. Even if you accidentally click on a pranked building and the arrow disappears, look for the leprechaun ANYWAY. :)

    Ok, what gives. A Russian Flag, really, a Russian Flag for St. Patrick's Day?  I'm not being sarcastic & I definitely am not a Trump fan.

    All the country flags are available if you watch long enough. :)

    Hello I had just read in the Forum that there was a Fireworks booster received after the maintenance, I did not receive it :(...
    Why is that?

    EDIT: I am also wandering when the test server is going back up :smile:

    Thanks
  • Dara (SKN1)Dara (SKN1) SKN1 Posts: 2,638
    I didn't got any booster at all. And i know some others here in skn too.

  • Leprechaun Treats:   I got one of the Leprechaun Treats on my Gourmet Farm.   At first I thought it was a prank on the garden crop, but in outline mode you could clearly see the sparkles, and when hovering over the garden crop which wasn't ready to be harvested, it said, " Gift from the Leprechaun " .    So far, I think this St. Patrick's Day event is kind of fun.
    I was a little confused about the wording by Lester that stays there permanently, apparently, about one of your farms being pranked, then spent a bit of time looking for Leprechauns that weren't there,   but after reading through all the messages here realized your farm is only truly being pranked when the green arrow is there as well.
    So far, at least on my farms, the Leprechauns have been pretty easy to spot, as pointed out, kind of like Rudolph, and love the idea of the pots of gold  ( haven't been lucky enough to pick the right pots though )... cuz haven't gotten any gold yet.

    Love this event too.

    Was so lucky to find all my leprechauns up until now (didn't find the pot of gold yet, but got nice treats/gifts), love the activity rewards, love the $ 1,- offers from Monica & her rainbow-sedan, love the green speckled shirt of Bubba and love watching my "Leprechaun's habitat" decoration grow!

  • And if it's Gold Clovers you are after.... not sure... but seems like I got a heck of a lot of Gold Clovers when I harvested the Barley on Gourmet that was sparkled with the " gift from the Leprechaun "....   I'll have to pay attention next time I harvest Barley that is not sparkled from the little green guy.

    Barley gives 55 or 75 golden clovers/hats (50% chance of 55, 50% chance of 75).

    You're better off with Dandelions, as they give 18 or 33 (50% chance of each), but you can harvest those every 30 minutes instead of every 3 hours. :)
  • Southern,  thank you so much, and right you are.    Just harvested Barley again, I don't think the sparkles gave me any extra clovers......  will plant the Dandelions instead.   :)
