Wow! That's great. Mine is over and I wouldn't have gotten close. I was only half way done with only a few hours left that I could play. I needed to sleep. Oh well, at least you got something for your trouble. I even sent in a ticket on it.

ThAt is what I'm doing. Back to the tower. I'm working on the 1500 energy and making the marble for future use. Do yo know if we need more workers or engineers after the 1500 energy?

I missed out too - I had a chance with 24 hours to go, but had a manic day at work and didn't get a chance to turn my attention to the game at all.

I think GI need to realise that a lot of people playing these games are adults (with jobs) and that we can't dedicate 12-16 hours a day to these tasks... so just because their lead coder takes out a calculator and punches in some numbers that show completing a quest will take six days, they need to take into account that people are not glued to their games 24/7. I just find their quests nonsensical.

I was mistaken earlier when I said the next task was engineers and hammers. Apparently is collecting gold beams and making marble, so if you haven't upgraded your quarry you might want to do that now!

It's super annoying that bc they are trying to sell a suitcase with books they are being stingy with them in the past 3 days I've collected 4 books with 5 buildings.

It's frustrating. I just hope that the quests stay the same for next year so I can at least complete them. If I'm still hooked on the game lol! I've been keeping my annoyingly placed ice fortress just in case.
 
I don't bother with the "special" quests anymore. They are design for one thing only, that is to get you to spend city credits so you can complete before time runs out.

I am enjoying the Eiffel Tower, at my leisure. :)

They will probably screw this one up too at some point. I didn't even make it to the valentine hotel.

Hey people ! I've made an observation over the last few quests. you know how they have multiple collections, like 10 granites and 12 beams? Well I noticed that if you do them in parallel it goes faster. If you do one at a time and have the item lopsided that the probability goes down finding the needed items. Does anyone feel the same way. I will tell you why in a later post after I hear any similar feelings.
 
I figured out a special achievement....first class builder is having one of every (not special buildings you buy with dollars though) entertainment building in your city.
 
Ok first thing is I am under 61k pop now. Because of the advance notice of what was coming I produced all my granite. So when I needed the beams, I would go days without a single one. I struggled to get one here and there. Then one day I was fast fingering in the zone, and accidentally sold all my granite by accident. Then it seamed the dam broke and I was getting 3beams a day. And this last quest with the tower, 30 books and 1500 energy, I held off collecting energy for the valentine project. I have 8 book stores and was not getting any books, maybe 1 every other day, now that the valentine thing is over I started gathering the 1500 energy. Low and behold I'm getting books in fact I finished up in two days.

Cool. Thanks. Does it include the ones that require rubies?

Also, thanks to this forum, I'm down to 7000 pop.
