I love the decor of the bake off in Parkside. When SalixCat promoted the event the sweet treat box was originally at 52 boxes, when we saw the actual event it was 58 boxes, which means we need 23200 sugar cubes for all the boxes. That actually seems doable me. When she promoted the Royal box it was originally at 30 boxes, then at the actual event was 24 which means we need 240 royal tokens which is extremely doable. I'm actually happy this time. I think I'll be able to finish this one. Glass half full. Coffins for everyone, you get a coffin and you get a coffin and we're all happy!!!!

I love the decor, and I love the prizes, but right now it's feeling out of reach and that feeling makes for the event feeling like work/stressful instead of fun. My last 4 showdowns, I've lost all 4, once on the very first round and the latest after making it to 7/7. This is with spending thousands of simoleons each time to try to stretch my cookies out and only attempting at 85% or more. The first day, I lost my first 2 attempts. Makes me wonder if I'm just very unlucky or if the difficulty has gotten even worse this time. 😢 The Llamazoom still isn't tied into this which would be helpful. The 3 other events still have low payout for the time invested (use cupcakes for +90 if you have them).

@Immichan I agree with you. In the seven rounds on the Bake-Off I always seem to lose on the first round. In the previous showdowns we never seem to lose on the very first round of baking. So far I have lost four different times on the first round. I agree with you Lama zooms need to be implemented.

Just come from losing two challenges, one after the other both at 90% on the first rounds. Got none left now, have to wait till it rechargesIt's really not worth bothering about anymore

I've got my tokens also collected 2 days before the end of the showdown, so I'll be getting my grand prize and napping in it until Christmas. :DCompared to the Catwalk Fabulous Showdown, this Treatsylvania Haunt Showdown was more demanding for me. And given the fact that none of these Showdowns are piece of cake. 😛 For the first 2 Showdowns (Country Living and Charming Gardens) I did not get the grand prizes, since at that point I'd only played SimsMobile for few months and didn't have resources. Treatsylvania Haunt statistics from my game:- 7 round challenges: 18- 9 round challenges: 15- 10 round challenges: 8- 200 000 Simoleons spent, 10 SimCash & 23 cupcakes. - 3 challenges with all rounds cleared, and one of them was the 5 round "tutorial" in the start- 11 burned desserts- My daily average of Royal Tokens received from challenges were around 12,5- After getting burned 5 challenges in a row in the beginning of the challenge, I tried to play extremely carefully and that meant spending simoleons. I also bought Royal tokens if they were available to buy with Simoleons.Comparison to my Catwalk fabulous Showdown:- 7 round challenges: 11- 9 round challenges: 10- 10 round challenges: 9- 95 500 Simoleons spent, 85 SimCash & 24 cupcakes- 7 challenges with all rounds cleared- 9 burned desserts- Daily average of Royal Tokens received from challenges around 18Sweet Treat Showdowns in general:- I love the setting in Parkside and the decorations, it looks really good. The coffin was nice touch for Halloween- I have insta account for my Sims and I really like all the different cakes and desserts and I was eager to get to bake them all and post pics to "Simstagram" but there hasn't been any new pastries or baking actions- calculating the odds&sugarcubes and the constant uncertainty of winning ANY tokens sucks the fun out of baking. Getting tokens from challenges is too uncertain and require resources. I don't like to worry my challenge tactics 2 weeks straight- Tokens from the FlavorLab and Pastry Class are minimal.. better chance of getting the Sweet tokens from quick events but that requires quite a lot of time spent in the game- All the color options being in their separate boxes.. frustrating to open +50 boxes with just the colors. This time I got "lucky" and got one of each item in the first 30 boxes. All the negative things started to outweigh all the good things I liked .. It's too stressful and I find myself being unhappy with the game experience. ☹️ Motivation of doing next Showdown is zero.. and I don't want my game instagram feed to be constant rant about burning cakes. 😛I'm going to do few challenges before I collect my grand prize, just to get some simoleons back or jewels.. Hoping everyone good or at least better times with the game! 🙂On a side note: I really liked the Halloween Haunt event which was before this showdown since it gave me time to actually breathe, gather resources, start new career and clear one piece of land. And still I got some really great prizes, fun pics and moments with all the Halloween decorations and outfits.

@kg122cin3h6t Well I'm happy for you. What the problem this time seems to be on the first round where it's at 90% and you fail. There's been times where I am at 95% and still fail. Maybe it doesn't happen in your game but it happens to a lot of people. We're all trying to get that grand prize.

This is not funny anymore!!!!! Who came up with the idea of torturing players? It fails on 92% !!!!!!!!!
If it fails on stage 1, it can fail again on the 5th and 7th stage! WTH?! This is so deliberate it's not funny at all! So one round you could end up losing 15+50+180 sim cash! WTH!
If there's another STS event again, I'm gonna stop buying packs then just eventually quit. It's not worth it if TSM will continue doing this.
If you want the game to last long, make players happy. Make packs worth buying. Don't be deliberate on making us spend sim cash.

@xAesmaDaevax like I said earlier, something is fishy to me. I've never had this happen in previous bake offs. the failure rate is astounding!

@Immichan Yes you need to spend money for the megaprice. Up to you if you like to..but that is how it is.
I hope you will get some nice prices and maybe you are a bit lucky on winning rate.

Hope so..

Hm..i think this really at least will be fun without this rate of fails....
And if the megaprice will be easier to get....
I do not wonder that people are really do drop playing this type of event...
I am guessing a lot of players do fail...
Well at least the old collections sets and event reruns will come again to get them complete....
And thats cool..good luck to you all 💓

It's strange that some of you have all these problems and fails. I actually experienced the contrary. 8 days through and I lost only 2 challenges.
I have to say that I play it safe: all turns at 90% or more. I can reach turn 7, if the total turns are 9 or 10.
I open two royal boxes a day, so I am gonna make it for the final prize. While to collect enough cookies is super easy, I'll finish that part of the prize in another 2-3 days. Don't run special events or use cupcakes for cookies: you collect enough of them during the challenges.

@givememore86 Yeah, I just came out of failing a round 1 90%, paid the cash so I wouldn't have to wait 8 more hours, and immediately failed again round 2 92%. And with these being the only way to get enough royals, that makes it exceptionally frustrating to keep failing with 0 consolation. Maybe if the consolation prizes were higher or included some refund of what we spent only to fail out, it wouldn't suck as much. I've spent over 100k simoleons and I can't afford to get cash and cupcakes.

@Immichan in reality I failed the Bake Off about 12 times in total. Most of them because of the first round. They definitely made it tougher this time. It's really hard to gauge how much of a percentage we need.

Ok, so I've been silent about this new sweet treat event but I'm making some observations today.
- I lost 14 out of 30 showdowns.
- I spent around 50,000-60,000 simoleons.
- I spent around 50-60 sim cash.
- I'm dreading playing showdowns.
- I may lose interest in continuing playing TSM if this continues & focus more on my other games (like BTS WORLD, Hi Armies!!! :-)
- Thanks for listening to my TED Talk.
