Re: Impossible to get keys for mayors contest without spending real money

When I got a task came up to lunch 1 disaster for 1k I thought that's OK a savage ng on vu items as I knew had to do it so get one with higher points. So did not do it but how wrong I was as after that I got several task worth 2k to collect 5 gold keys so it take to do a disaster to get the keys. I did them but at the end of the contest when I started on the gold tickets. Guess what I got another task to collect 5 gold keys and the next golden ticket another task of collect gold keys but I already got 1 key from the cargo ship and I had to choose the tornado that gives 5 keys I was short on a vu battery. At the start of the contest I had about 20 of each vu items. So I had to spend 20simcash as it needed 6 batteries then I realised too late I could of saved 10 simcash if I cald my cargo but already done it. I think it was last minute panic that I was not thinking straight. Lucky enough the finel ticket was to upgraide to London Town for 2k shame it was not a 3k I would of won the contest as I was 600 points out on been first so I was then second. But on the last 10 minutes before the end zone won big prize to find I was third. It was lucky I used al 3 tickets otherwise do I been pushed down to 4th. I feel sorry for the one who was third behind me that was pushed to 4 placed. I fell to her/him place.

however I am happy with my prize of. 1k sim cash after having done a hattrick of coming first 3 times in the row. I thought  I was going to come first for a forth time in a row but the game for this round once I got that vu disaster for 1k went down hill after that as the random points where between 2000 to 1600 points only one or two worth 2140 points none of the usual 3ks. The one who pushed me into third place WA only 140 points in it. If the game handed me tasks with extra points I would of had a better chance of a forth win. But it was not to be. I am not complaining or anything I am happy some one else was given that chance to win the grand prize. I am not greedy or anything if I keep winning I can be a great help to my online friends
