Mars Bar

I have the buddha snowman thingy left. I've been trying to get it for days.

Accidentally tapped my actual corn. I think I might actually punch something.

put your farm into storage then put it back out.... corn should be gone.... placing stuff into storage resets whatever action it's doing

No, I mean I had the corn ready and already got a few handshakes on it. I accidentally tapped the last handshake this morning so now I have to wait another 90 days >.<

Randomly decided to bet on the outsider at the dogs yesterday and won! The only thing I can't get is the bloody Claus Co building. Can't count the number of times I just missed it at this point...

When did they decide to extend the event? I thought it was finishing today.

SpAnser posted about it on 3rd January here.


Anyone need tiles, channel 6, crops (corn) or stage tapped?

I'm only visiting people that are still collecting for personal prizes to drop of presents.

I have collect all prizes on the wheel, so don't need anymore gifts. Please drop to people that do.

Regards
John

I won't say no to some gift bags, still got Claus Co left to get on my wheel. Also, my OH started playing just after xmas and could really do with some help getting some personal prizes, her SN is Blargetha.

Thanks to corkies trick (which actually does work on iOS if your doing it right) I was able to get the Yeti last night. Took probably over 20 tries though. So I'd imagine I would of been missing out if not for it. Still one or two things to get so I'm hoping it will still work.

Creamy Goodness

i have only the helter skelter to get, may look into this trick.

i have to say as someone who hasn't got many "x.xx% to characters jobs" items my money has skyrocketed since getting all the snow(wo)men. I hit over $1 million for the first time :pac:

You have to close the app before that screen comes up - as soon as you know that you aren't going to be getting what you want.. I tried it and made this mistake first, but then it worked and I got the last item I was missing

Spent 30 donuts on 2 Homer Buddhas and got a bench with a jacket on it and a planter. ARE YOU FKN KIDDING ME.

coolisin

Couldn't be bothered spending doughnuts on either the Buddha's's or Mystery box.
You never get anything decent in them.

Someone on here mentioned before that they got Frink in a Buddha. Was hoping for some sort of decent premium item not a damn bench and flower pot! They need to update the prizes or at least lower the price down to 1 donut, even the mystery box ones are always lame! Yay a parking space :rolleyes:

corkie

A new episode tie-in has landed.

One new free character.
+ Mr. Sparkle Billboard for 30 donuts
+ Swanky Fish (Limited time) for 90 donuts.

See here

Hey I'm having the same problem. Not sure what the issue is. So just playing the game on my phone instead.

I got Frink in the Buddha. I have been playing for 15 months at least at this stage. I got the Buddha in the weekly mystery box thing - didn't spend any donuts on it. I think I have bought 2 Buddhas since I started playing, and have never got anything decent in it.
My mystery boxes since have been trees, parking lots and newspaper dispensers.
I have never bought donuts, have always just saved up free ones - I used donuts to get Squeeky Voiced Teen but have heard rumours he is a possibly prize in a mystery box/buddha.

Miaireland

Yes you can get the Squeeky Voiced Teen in the mysterybox/buddha. I had bought it with doughnuts and then got it as a prize the following week.

chick7

my son got squeaky voice teen in a mystery box....I opened a mystery box yesterday and got a Buddha in it... the Buddha then gave me 30 donuts

rawn

Guess Buddhas are only good when you win them! I bought some premium scratchcards and now have 92 donuts. Might buy some more next week and try get Frink

Mars Bar

I bought Frink on Monday. Bored witless waiting for the Christmas update to finish. Have 25 donuts left.

Mars Bar

I got the update and Lisa is free but it won't start the story?

I had two coins there (bar and cards) and for both spins the wheel went really weird and slow and landed on money both times. It makes me suspicious.

Same thing keeps happening to me. In my last 17 spins I've got cash. I still need mr plow and the snow monster thing. I'm not going to lie I cannot freaking wait for this Xmas update to finish. After the earlier fcuk up where I was told that I had all the personal prizes but never got them, I'm really hoping for something a bit better in the next few weeks.

Creamy Goodness

It's quite obvious the wheel is rigged to land on cash. The fact that if you soon it real slowly it will always spin at full speed regardless of how much of a swipe you give it.

I'm gonna see if I can hook the game up to a web proxy and inspect the server calls and see if they're doing anything funky*

* I use this tool everyday in work so it's not too hard to see but I'd imagine they'll be encrypting the server call data.

Can't remember where I read it but (tstotopix.me maybe) each of the slots on the wheel has a certain percentage of landing on it weighted in accordance with the prize. Some of the cash slots were 15-20% each, while the yeti or ice sculptures you only had a 2 - 5% chance of landing on.

There's a full list of percentages on the wiki:

No wonder i'm still waiting for the claus co, but i think there should be a mechanism that ups your chances when there's only 1 or 2 actual prizes left amongst the gift card and cash filler.
