Anyone figure out why the event prize icon bounces (trophy with knives)

Oh my God, THANK YOU! I was going to make a board about this too. I thought it might be a trick of the eye, because every time it does it, I go to check if something is ready or if there's green blobs in my town, but there isn't.

I think it's just to freak us out.

Probably just to let the users know they are getting ingredients (corn & fertilizer). Once it's done collecting, it bounces.

Well it's working to freak me out :) I see it out of the corner of my eye while tapping thinking it might be something important.

No, there's nothing done when I go to check why it bounced.

The icon bounces each time a new mutant corn is germinated in your town.

There are three mutant conrns:

Shorter light with a yellow-green "hair"
Tall normal color with yellow-orange hair
Tall dark with red-green hair

haha :lol: !!! I think you may be right! I haven't noticed any rhyme nor reason to it - seem to be random in my town!

It just happens. I believe it's just a "cool, fun" animation which we may see more of. :)

Hm, nothing's germinating in my town, but the knives still randomly bounce like they're going to fly out and kill somebody.
