I love the event! You can play it as fanatic as you want, or laid back and you can still win some nice things! And I loveloveloooove the deco's!
I found the 1st one very easy & had all the rewards in the 1st day, so there was no reason to keep playing, since I knew I wouldn`t be in the top 5. This one is WAY better, I got all the rewards that I got last time, plus some extra ones that were all pretty cool.... love the 7000 horseshoes!!
I managed to get over 1 million points and I think I ended up ranked around 12th or 13th. There were at least 2 people that got over 2 million points ....WTG them!! So that means in the top 10 people reached various different rewards, which just shows that there were enough rewards to give everyone something to aim for & incentive to keep playing.
I had my reservations at first that there would be a few rewards that no one would get, but looks like it works well, so now I have something higher to aim for next time. ^^
The only addition I would make, would be to offer a "time" option for skipping, as well as the gold option. So that we could choose to sacrafice increasing numbers of hours to skip a box. But aside from that I thought was a good fun event!
Moved all the criticism on this thread to the criticism thread about this event.
I also believe that the top prizes, for GGS's sake are ridiculously high. But I was wrong, people were willing to give up sleep and gold to get a gold license. But that doesn't actually affect me, since I won't get there regardless, so this is my last comment on the matter.

That's an interesting point, Yakoska!
Since events start at the same date and time in all time zones, we unfortunately sometimes run into situations that cause events to end while someone is either asleep or at work - even if the events are exactly 24,48,72, etc. hours long. :S
Not sure if we can ever come up with a perfect solution here, since some servers are sharing a lot of time zones (e.g. Spanish/Hispano-American or Portuguese/Brazillian server), but it's something we always try to improve within given limits. I'll pass the feedback on.
That actually shouldn't be the case, Chalaryl. If you want, you may contact Support and see if they can find the error, so it doesn't happen again.
We know that idle boxes might move on while offline currently (due to a bug), but this shouldn't happen as long as the funnel is still filled.

With 24 hour increments, at least everyone gets the same 'available' run time. Like Joe American in in NYC who signs in at 7am (which is 1 PM CEST) just in time to start vs Sheila Aussie in Sydney who signed off for bed just before 10 PM (1 PM CEST). And I'm happy that this time the event ran 69 hours, which is almost 72
But If the event is in 24 hour increments. Joe will sleep the last part of the event, while Sheila will be awake for it. Its still an advantage for Joe, for sure, because this event can work while you are asleep.
But if the last 'day' is only 12 hours long (as in the case of a 60 hour event) then Joe loses 4-5 awake hours of time, and 8-7 sleep hours. While Sheila loses a full 12 hours of awake time. And seems much less fair to me.

Why does it need adjusting?...because you didnt get the top reward prize??...maybe try running the gauge at 10 during the entire event and then you might come close to your so called "near perfect"
I can understand that low level players "can't afford" to have the silo event run often. It doesn't mean spending money on the event (or gold for those who do). When the silo wants you to produce cabbage, and what you need is corn so your chickens don't starve, it can slow down your progress. The same with barley/dandelions.
And don't be braggin' on your mystery boxes. I got two mystery boxes out of one mystery box and other than that it was all feed/humus.
Yes you can. Simply pick a multiple of 24 hours. 24,48,72,96,120,144 are examples. I suggest 120 if you are going to leave the current prize valuations.
It was fun
