Re: MID LEVEL MINI FORUM

@HenryThePear  Yep, if it's iOS just make sure you are logged into the GameCenter and have iCloud sync on for PvZ2. I find it a better play experience on the tablet vs a smaller screen.

1.4M is a good score! Should be more than enough to get the 8th win and two gauntlets in a "streak".

@PowerTossHow could u calculate up to 48 gauntlets in win streaks for a season?

You have to play 220 matches to get to 1,000 crowns. If you lose the 9th match on purpose you will get this streak 220/9 ~ 24 times. In one streak you earn two gauntlets...so that will be 48 gauntlets 😉

Edit: Or you can see it that way: If you use 220 gauntlets you will get 48 gauntlets back through the streak rewards...

Edit2: If you want the exact numbers and win streaks you will have to achieve for an optimal "gauntlet management":

• Complete a win streak of eight 20 times (lose the 9th match on purpose): That's a total of (40+1) 41x20=820 crowns
• Complete a win streak of nine 4 times (lose the 10th match on purpose): That's a total of 46x4=184 crowns
• So you'll end up with 1004 crowns at the end of a season, playing 220 matches (24 matches lost on purpose), and "earning" 48 gauntlets through streak rewards 

The 1st prize offers just 1 gauntlet not 2 ☹️

anyway here is 3rd attempt on 1,8+ this tournament. SO hard to get 1,9+ with so much lagging ☹️

I use two devices (one is WIFI only) and you can double your resources if you are careful about how you play.

Yes, but with a win streak of 8 you get it twice. You get one gauntlet for your 1st win and one gauntlet for your 8th win 😉

Don't get me wrong the best way in terms of gauntlet management would be to win one game and lose the second one...but that wouldn't be a lot of fun and you wouldn't get any other rewards which should still be your goal^^ In the end it doesn't really matter. Just play until you lose! The difference will probably only be ~4-10 gauntlets that you will miss out on.

About the lag: I do have a little bit of lag with Pea-nut but not that much. I have way more lag when my phone starts to run out of battery <10%.

@PowerTossI am thinking of just wining 2 first matches then lose,just to earn mints and gauntlets 🙂

Haha, but you want those seed packets and coins rewards to upgrade your plants 😉 With a 1.4M you can easily get over 8 wins..and this is better in terms of gauntlets/season reward progress.  

@j7433omngy6t 

you will get a FREE play on both devices - it is not 'shared' or transferred.

I presume both devices have the same profile ?

(given you are using IOS and Android)

@HenryThePear You really don't have to worry about your gauntlet count! Here the reason why:

• You get 4 free gauntlets every day for watching an ad. A season lasts 30 days, so that will be 120 gauntlets
• If you do the "lose the 9th match on purpose" strategy you will need 220 gauntlets to reach 1,000 crowns in a season
• You will earn 48 gauntlets through streak rewards while playing - So that is a total of 168 gauntlets, which means you need an additional 52 gauntlets
• You get 4 free plays every day so that will be 4x30=120 "free gauntlets" - So in total 288 gauntlets
• That means you will have more than enough gauntlets to complete a season!

Based on your post I have now drafted a plan to get my rewards without spending my reserved gauntlets.

Streak of 9 (8 wins and 1 lost) gives me 41 crowns

So 1000 crowns = 1000/41x9 = 220 gauntlets

Season = 4 weeks or 28 days.

4 free gauntlets from ads per day = 4x28 = 112  (obtaining from traveling to work)

3x free plays per day = 3x28 = 84   (breakfast, lunch and evening breaks)

Not using free plays at weekends  -3x8 = -24 

2x gauntlets win per streak 2x1000/41= 48

Total free gauntlets = 220

In short, I will just need to play 9 games per day during weekdays and less at weekends to get my 1000 crowns.

We shall call it the Baldrick Plan because it is so cunning!😜

@eieio_31310 Very nice plan! 🙂 And you are of course right...a season only lasts 28 days.

Edit: But maybe you have to subtract 4x8 gauntlets for not watching ads at the weekends? Or do you watch ads and just don't use your free plays? 

In all honesty, I do press the ads button at weekends but might not have time to concentrate on playing games. 

If I do find the time to play then it would be a bonus.  👿

@HenryThePear Haha. Yeah, I know what you mean but I think there will be seed packets for Imp-Pear in one of the tournaments this season and I'm sure you don't want to miss out on those.

@HenryThePear Good job! 🙂

I need 10 more wins to upgrade my BV to level 4. BTW I'm in the same boat as you were with upgrading Blover. I'm only 20 seed packets away to get my Blover to level 5 and since 3 days the Pinata Tracker doesn't give me ANY Blover seeds. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh.

Anyway I encountered a bug in pinata today. After playing pinata 2nd time my game crashed and I could even play it again ,which is 4 times to play pinata and the seeds for the first two times still count?

Hm...I don't know. Probably depends on when your game crashed or how 'significant' the crash was.
