Hoarding Mutant Seeds

I assume opera masks will be included among the rewards for seeds in Act III. If you think you'll need a lot of masks, perhaps it makes sense to hold off dropping seeds until then.

However, I'm guessing most people who are hoarding have in mind that they might want to help neighbors who are struggling to finish the event. The downside to this strategy is that neighbors who aren't playing as frequently are less likely to capture seeds you drop. Still, it's something I've done, and I'm sure I'll do again.

For the most part, I think of seeds, gremlins, etc. as little more than a way of saying Hi!
  • There is no advantage to hoarding the seeds. However being that the friend visit rewards are very minor in the scope of things, people are probably building it up to be able to hit all neighbors.

    There's not a terrible advantage to visiting daily unless you need cash, a minor amount of donuts, or event currency. I haven't visited much in Act II since 1/2 hour of my time is more valuable then spending it tapping 1-3 clones in friends towns and dropping a seed in particular towns. This way when I do visit, I can drop 2-5 in every town.

    I also feel that the time of day that I drop them, most may not even see them assuming they are in similar time zones. Typically it's late at night when I do decide to do visits. So even if I were to drop them, some will probably go untapped.
