Hmmm, so you're saying that they all got an easter egg for participating - are you listening GI - rewarded for active participation.

Sorry I was spoofing GI, there were no eggs. See? industry standard, no eggs for trying.

Wow, 44 of each? That's big numbers!

I would settle for that, mine is 44-46-48 and I only have 2 of each manufacturing plant

Complaint to GI

 

[GAB IV]

It's interesting (and frustrating) that they are doing contests that inhibit your ability to complete the 4th Easter Building. Oh GI, you so crazy!

They are testing your priorities and determination. You can't start one thing and then change your mine to do the other. Once you start something, you must drive to complete.

Glad you got some satisfaction Kel! I have to wonder how Apple tolerates them if they are having to give all these refunds on their behalf...

Forget that, I want to see GI's face when they see the reverse charge from apple, lol. Right back at you I say. See how they like expecting something (real cash) only having it taken back.

Well with a lot of purchased $'s, even using the 50% production bonus would in theory give you a max of 80 and then you need to speed the last lot up for a further 10 credits so that's 210 credits already. Buying them individually doesn't bear thinking about, I believe we should all complain to GI/Apple to see if this person is actually purchasing credits or whether its a GI person getting them free!

It's not unheard of that gaming company's pay gamers to play their game all the time to beta test it. I'm thinking she maybe one of those.

I have 92 cookies, 132 cheese and 66 tea of which in less than 13 hours I have produced 33 cookies, 90 cheese and 23 teas. I am dedicated to only doing this challenge since I will fall short of the 7 eggs for the third building. I agree with gab to be committed to it or just be committed to the loony bin. Why am I up at 4 am poking?

Lol. Keep poking you only have 3 days. As for committed, I look terrible in all white.

I want to be done before the weekend. iPad will be going asleep for 10 days while I am in Aruba for vacation. I want the 7100 happiness points before I shut this beast down. Wish me luck. It may be a few extra bathroom breaks today.

I'm feeling rebellious today, I'm not supposed to wear jeans to work. Hey princess, aka ski queen, if I fall from a tree today, you will call me Cal. Ain't that right hill valley?

Depends what you were doing in that tree....

IMHO, this game is a lot more fun when you ignore the contests and special events. Work toward goals without time limits, at your leisure. There are enough things with time limits in real life, this game shouldn't cause additional stress by being one of them.

Also, I plan to never contact GI. Not worth it. Won't ever spend a penny of real money on the game, and if GI does something to piss me off enough I'll just quit playing. Walking away is always an option, and if enough people do it, those in charge listen. Case in point: lots of people got fed up with the BCS in college football and walked away, revenues started dropping, and a few years later the NCAA announced they were going to start a playoff system.
