Thanks guys, I am glad I don't have to collect beams any more.

@jek

And so you celebrated Easter by being generous. It is actually great.

Thanks, that really makes me feel better that I can help the less fortunate.

That's the spirit! Don't feel bad about missing a so-called opportunity. What you did was great, and I mean it. Not many of us gave away valuable items without expecting anything in return. I was actually impressed.

I'm going to end up with 24. I'm about 2 minutes short on time to squeeze in 3 more. On the bright side, more sleep for me! I've considered using insta-completes, but not worth it. Hope it works out for everyone!

This is for those waiting on avos:

I have a theory on this. I run taxis most of the time. Get lots of mangos and coconuts. At night I do a run of busses. Every few days I do get an avo. Soooo I am thinking that all the items need to get out at some percentage. So when I do the taxis and pump out all the mangoes and coconuts, the busses bring back all the other stuff including avos to bring balance in the order. Hey I am just saying.

If you run the buses all the time, the long timeframe is used to put out all the mangos and coconuts thus taking all that much longer to finally get an avo.

In other words think of it has the push out of items are ( just a guess for an example) 40 mangos, 30 coconuts, 20 blanks, 5 bananas, 4 payas, and 1 avo. If you run only buses at 3hrs, you should get an avo every (40+30+20+10+4+1) * 3 or 300 hours. So if you run taxis at 5min ea you can pump out mangos, coconuts and the awesome blanks. Then run buses that would need to get out the rest.


What do you think? Or do you think I am thinking too much?

Grat theory, but not sure I buy it.
I run with 2 terminals - total of 9 buses and 1 doubledecker. I basically get one every day. I am now at 28 in total.
Low maintenance, great pay-off.

Oh yeah - that once costed me around 30-40 credits for upgrading a confectionary plant to level 3 or 4. THAT I have had to compartamentalise

Terrible! A couple of nights ago I fell asleep with my hand on the ipad and startled myself awake. I looked and my hand agreed to a big purchase without the consent of my awake brain! Haha! I kept looking at the game- did I just do that? It was kind of funny (in a warped Bruce Campbell sort of way!) Not too funny, however

I refuse. I made to level 50 with only spending $10 early on. The challenge to grow larger will be slow because I am counting on getting the special buildings that are high in happiness and low on electricity. The Easter restaurant would of really helped. So far I have given 4 eggs away and received 1. I am ok with that. I know the contests are hard. I am gearing myself up to compete better in the future for dairy related items. I have 9 ranches and 6 dairy factories, all are nearly fully upgraded. I need another 12 milk trucks so they don't remain idle. Good luck to you.

Hm - planning on becoming a monster?
Taking on the great Mockba heads on?
Best of luck to you then

Here is a cs follow up to one of my tickets, seeking feedback. I offer 3 guesses to which link I clicked on, and the first 2 don't count lol

Yana is who answered my ticket as well about never getting an Avo in 3 months. I also replied "not satisfied" (but she is cute, eh! Haha! Sorry...Off topic.)

I am a big proponent of taxis when i'm sitting on the game & buses at night or when a long period of work is headed (or if I am headed for a tennis match.) I still have no avos, but I get banana and mangoes as often from buses as I get any of the other prizes, while I get a mango or coconut about 1 of every 7 or 8 taxi rides. In other words, I like the thoughts put forward here.

Day two of the biggest lockout in Danish history, the nights are still cold, but this morning the sun is shining. Promising a beautiful spring day which means more snow will melt yay!

Oh, and it's my dads 65 birthday!

Mine has just changed to cacao - watch out Kel, the glitch will get you....

PS - I am loving the challenges. I think some have to be hard, very hard. A bit like the ET, gives you that sense of pride when you have the building! I am still loving the game.

Ahh Woop cacao I have 5 already from my overnight run which I waited to collect ill after the contest had changed. I should hopefully have either 15 or 20 at the end of the comp fingers crossed it'll be enough, and then I will be.done with the ET challenge I think.
