Farmers league event ending early

The ending time of the farmers league event was the same as the hard work event. But it has suddenly ended early before we could receive our payout for our title for the ending of the event.

I'm really not happy about this because I spent over 17,000 gold for the season pass to get some extra diamonds and this payout left me a few thousand diamonds short of collecting the cow community and the missed opportunity of collecting 3,000 diamonds. I'm sure that other players would have had other issues with the early ending of the event as well.

    @ninjahuman (AU1) I saw that too. You used to get what was called a Microsoft Minute (see pic below) and now you get a BFG Minute which is a period of time between now, then and whenever. >:)

    The mood of almost everyone in my co-op is same.
    Nobody expects much from GGS nowdays. If a new event comes, people are skipping it as they are sure, it must be either full of bugs or the rewards wont be worth playing it.

    The dream world reducing diamonds, Xmas WoF requiring new tokens instead of what players had saved all year long, and the Fortune teller ... more like a gold pit ...

    Event after event ... everything looks worse.

    The event ending early doesn't affect the amount of your payout but you do have to wait until GGS is back from vacation to receive it.

    @farmgirlmimi43 (US1)  That announcement refers to the delayed payout for the WWC finishing in 4 days.

    The early end to the Farmers League means that the FL end-of-event payout for the HWE was at the Gardener level, not the level that players had achieved at the end of the Farmers League.
    It would also not include the Season Pass bonus for those who shelled out the extra gold :(

    At least some humor can help with the situation. But it is still really bad for them to mess up the ending time like this, especially at the expense of thousands of diamonds.

    Some events are nice like the two GMLs and two GMBs from the HWE and all the themed buildings from the temp farms. But a lot of frustrating things are happening like you mentioned.

    That appears to only affect the worldwide championship event. This is for the farmers league event which must have had some issue to cause it to end earlier than the time stated on the event itself.



    I also received this when the hard worker event ended:



    I received 500 diamonds but I should have received 3,000 diamonds. A new farmers league event has not started so it isn't that.

    I don't this this is quite true. The Farmers League ended early, I did get the 8000 diamonds payout.

    Later when I logged in I also got 500 diamonds for end of league event at gardener level. I think this happened when the HWE event ended. When I look at the current League event, I'm starting on Green fingered gardener level. Something is going wrong, but I think you'll find the end of League diamonds were paid out.

    Yes, I received the ranking payment as well. But the timer showed that the event would end at the same time as the hard worker event and it ended over three hours earlier and that caused us to miss the payment that we receive when the hard worker event ends for our current title. I had the renowned rancher title and the season pass so I should have received 3,000 diamonds, but the farmers league event ended early which prevented this from happening.

    Those who were at last stage, Farming Legend title ... should have got 8000 Diamonds ... when HWE event ended. But they got 500 diamonds only.

    How GGS plans to compensate them ?
  • Exxy (INT1)Exxy (INT1) INT1 Posts: 2,602
    You know , only a player could probably get that title :)

    Was there anyone actually 42 gold medals out of 42? or close? :o
  • DebRN (US1)DebRN (US1) US1 Posts: 697
    This has been discussed before. When the payout from FL is a few hours before the end of the event, the points gained no longer add to your total.  I watched it stop counting as we received the last FL payout. They just don't match up in time.  Is this what happened to you all?
  • ijrosh (US1)ijrosh (US1) US1 Posts: 1,325
    no the farmers league ended before the hard worker. so because it was a new farmers league it ended the hard worker in the very first title of the farmers league instead of the title we were on when the last farmers ended. so my pass was no good and i lost out on 1,500 from the pass and 1,500 from ending in outsanding rancher. instead i got 500 from being in gardener. if that makes more sence.

    A lot of players would have reached FL title.

    Also, whatever title players reached, the last HWE event should have paid diamonds according to the title a player holds, not 500 diamonds.
  • ijrosh (US1)ijrosh (US1) US1 Posts: 1,325
    it paid out for the gardener title cause it paid out according to the new farmers league instead of last.even though we got those medals in the last farmers league and should have been paid according to were we ended in that one. not being awarded for a farmers league we had not even had a chance to get medals in yet. so everyone got paid for being in gardener because that is were everyone starts. instead of getting paid for were we ended in the last farmers league and actually played to get. so i lost out on 2,500 diamonds i should have gotten. i finished in outstanding rancher that is 1,500 and 1,500 for pass. it put everyone in gardener wich is 500 and not even time to buy the pass.

    I'm going to try to explain it more clearly since it appears that a few players are confused about what I meant.



    The bottom section that has been selected is the reward we receive for our diamonds when the event ends. I had the renowned rancher title so I was expecting to receive another 3,000 diamonds from the end of the event because the hard worker event and the farmers league event had the same ending time (the selected section at the top right corner.)

    But the farmers league ended over three hours earlier than what was shown in the time on the top right corner, which prevented us from collecting those extra diamonds. We received the ranking rewards when the event ended, but we couldn't receive the rewards at the end of the current league event for owning the title. That is what the problem is.

    I would have to say, very simply, what i think the problem is:

    1. the Farmer's league ended before the hwe.

    2. This being the case, i'm pretty sure that the farmer's league that we have right now started before the end of the hwe.

    3. Because of this, since everyone starts out on the "Gardener" Title the FL gave us all 500 diamonds because that how much you should receive when you end an event with the gardener title.

    What I forgot to mention was that I checked after the hard worker event had ended and the new farmers league event had not started yet. I think it started around half an hour after the hard worker event ended, between the hard worker event and the cooperative championships. I am not certain on that though but I definitely know that the farmers league event had not started again when the hard worker event ended.

    hmm, yes, well i guess that adds another layer of mystery to it, as they say any way  :/
    It does make sense that we would've gotten diamonds from a FL but why we got them from the starting one and not the ending one when none of them were active when the hwe ended is practically unanswerable until ggs come back from holidays.

    When are we going to receive compensation for this issue?
  • Hi Everyone, Thanks for being so patient, this issue has not been forgotten about :)
  • ninjahuman (AU1)ninjahuman (AU1) AU1 Posts: 2,526
    Is there any more news about this? The current farmers league event is going to end in a few days and this issue still exists.
