Did you seriously expect to receive all the buildings and characters after 4 days? Did you expect yo receive all items after just 4 days?
The event is supposed to run a course of an entire month so obviously the odds for the particular items are going to be low so you don't win them all in the beginning.

Remember valentine? People got all the items early on and then complained that there was nothing left to do. If you got all easter items after just 4 days then you'd complain that the event was too short and that there are nothing left to do.

I'd be surprised if the majority get a building and character by the end of the month.

  • I received the Banana Dictatorship on my first gold box. I am pretty content for now.
  • I have a max of 2 boxes a day and have not won anything worth mentioning. I have only received 2 baskets on the first day (1 pink, 1 blue), none after that. I think there are few people with a building and a character or one of the two right now.

    I got nothing special yet


    Nor me. A lot of fences, a pond, a couple of trees and ooooh, 500 golden eggs! Which got me a golden box with which I won...pastel fences.

    :roll:

    But as the OP said, early days yet.

    We are 4 days in and I have only received one pond. Odds are good that I won't come close to obtaining all the prizes.


    Aha! I only have two ponds and 3 fences! Beatin ya!

  • I think EA is trying to find a happy medium. Both Halloween events were critiqued for being too easy while the infamous whacking day was too long and tedious. Maybe after 2 more events they will get it right: I prefer easy short events. I dont like going neighborhoods everyday.

    I want to be positive. For example, I've noticed the fences and hedges are much easier to place because of scrolling functionality, now. Cool.


    I also noticed how easy it is to place fences and hedges, however I also noticed that if you are placing them from your inventory and you have say, five hedges, once those are placed you will start buying them without any real warning.

    You see negative money floating up but if you are not paying attention...

    Maybe it has always been this way but I'd have thought I would have noticed before. :oops:
  • I wasn't around for whacking day, I didn't have a compatible device, but I watched my partner play and he got up to the class snake with the kids inside it? He came into the event late as well so I think maybe it has got harder to get everything in events.

    Having said that, I started playing just before Halloween 2013 and have got all prizes in all events up till now without spending donuts so it is possible.

    This event so far I haven't spent donuts (though have added around 50 neighbours, bringing my total to around 60 active) but have 28 easter fences, 4 pastel fences, 2 easter gates, 4 egg piles, 3 easter trees, 3 easter ponds (only won 2 but found a third in my inventory), kang topiary, the blocko store, egg council guy, johnny fiestas, banana dictatorship and father sean.

    I haven't been off of it though, tapping bunnies like mad.
  • I've also gotten all the prizes without ever using donuts. By the looks of this event I'll be happy with a new character and to building or two :thumbup:
