The elf jars go in the elf cannon. You get the cannon when you have enough bells and you get the bells from friend's towns and certain tasks!

Once you get the cannon you'll be wondering how to get rid of all the elf jars you've accumulated and that's where the cogs come in, to upgrade the cannon... All very complicated!

Once you have collected all the "Friend Points"/Prizes, you have a chance of getting donuts occasionally. Anywhere from 1 to 3 donuts per day!

I can't find the list on tstotopix of how many bells I need per day to stay on target.
Has anyone got a link handy?

Yup, meant to say that the other day.

Any idea what's happening there?

The_B_Man, link detailing the daily amount of bells required to stay on target for all prizes in Phase 2. I'm about a day and a half ahead at the moment. Should also be able to increase the daily amount collected with the upgrading of the cannon as time goes on. Can't post link, but

Struggling with this one. Targets needed seem very high. A lot of friends don't seem to be playing either which is limiting things further.

If you have room for in your friends list please add 5h4mr0(k

Already friends with you 5h4mr0Ck!

I'm going through my friends and just tapping on the Cannon and the Tunnels, as they give double points. Do a second round later in the day in the hopes that the handshakes have been cleared.

Each time a friend taps on your Tunnel or Cannon, you get 5 bells, other buildings give nothing, so keep the handshakes clear!

lazeedaisy

Major problems since this mornings updates,

Annoying,

RoryMurphyJnr

Can't get in since this morning, was a day ahead of schedule, gonna be a struggle now

god's toy

ah so that's what it is.

my broadband is down today and using internet via/over Bluetooth from my Oneplus one, I was thinking the game wanted internet over WiFi only to work but wasn't sure as FG game is working fine over Bluetooth internet.

guess we will just wait....

corkie

Just got back into the game! Shot my canon and cleared some elves!


A big thank you to people who have the cave and cannon near each other!

Struggling with this one too. At current rate I'll be lucky to make it to the spruce caboose. If anyone wants to add me (I'm a daily player): conorosullivan84

Is there a rate of bells per day we need to be getting before the end? I know you get more each upgrade, etc, but there still seems to be a long way to go, but with 10 days I;m sure it'll be fine.

There's a chart on that post that shows the total amount of bells you should have each day to get all the prizes before the update finishes.

Wow, that's pretty challenging. By the end of today I should have roughly the right amount for the target but I've been going fairly hell for leather logging on more often that I normally would to try and meet the target after a slow enough start. I won't be spending donuts to rush it anyhow.

Sarn

Anyone else running out of elves to shoot? I'm on target for the prizes at the moment but this limitation could slow things down.

DubDJ

So at this stage I'm supposed to have 13,000, but I'm actually at less than 6,000.

lazeedaisy

I am on track with 13743, but finding it hard to get elves in bottles to shoot! Back to work tomorrow, so that should slow me down a big deal

Mars Bar

Unless you have reminders and alarms set up, you're unlikely to complete it. It's a balls and the Christmas event is just silly.

Woshy

The number of bells required is ridiculously high - 4000 odd between prizes is crazy. I have loads of elves in jars and nothing to do with them.

hoodwinked

i am at about 10,000 but realistically didn't have time to touch it over christmas,

also have about 300 elves in jars and can only shoot 33 every 2.1/2 hours, but with life and sleep and everything i just end up firing the cannon twice maybe three times a day max. :mad:

33 every 2.5 hours. Mine is 13 every 2.45 hours have I missed something??

I have 10.5k bells and logged in quite a bit can't see me making the last two prizes..

11 per shot every time?

marcbrophy

So far the combined amount of cogs I've collected is 1528.
To reach max level (20) in the elf cannon, I only 5347 more.

That's an awful lot :mad:
