In two days I only received 1 mask and I'm wondering if others have the same problem. This has been going on since the start of the event. I actually play every 4 hours because of insomnia so it's not for lack of trying on my end. It's really hard to make the daily task when you're required to send three crooks to a friend and I seem to get this task at least 4 days out of the week. Sorry if someone else posted something similar, I read back and didn't see anything.

I got like forty of the things, I'd give ya some if I could.

I'm not even using this except when it's required.

I've received 2 in the last 4 days so it just a waste of time and probably best just to skip the the task if your not getting any of them.

Ya, just X it out. Also when you get masks you could save them just for DC and not for random handouts. Also also if you save a completed DC but not claim it, you won't get the same one.https://i.imgur.com/oY17lw4.pngSince "Send Crooks to friend's towns" is not claimed it won't come up again.

my collection rate seems to be about 3 one day and 8-10 the next day in both of my towns. if they are timing out after 4 hours then the chances of clearing them is slim anyway in a large town because it is easy to miss them. hopefully the drop rate improves as the event goes on. with the low rate of masks they don’t really help much

Castiel19x,
I honestly don't remember such a slow drop rate for an event and I've been playing since the beginning. When the drop rate was this bad in past events they usually issued a patch to raise it. Thanks for taking the time to reply.

At first I had a real shortage also. Now I usually have a surplus in the teens. Two things I have noticed; 1. dropping two crooks in the same neighbors town then tapping on the cops will often yield another mask. 2. Not tapping on large groups, but rather on singles, will increase the mask yield. They don’t really like to congregate, hit the wanderers.

Mount Grey,
My Mom would love it if you could. She's really behind this act and I've been sending what little crooks I collect her way to help out. Thank you for taking the time to reply.

I have 38 saved up for act II. I'll always keep 3 for the daily task
