I personally loved whacking day. The only problem I had with it, was finding all 5 snakes in huge towns, but they solved that problem in the 2nd Halloween event, by having 20+ ghosts flying around of which you could tap 5 (more before they fixed the bug). At that point I was a happy camper. Adding the community prizes on top of that, he events have evolved into pure awesomeness and then EA did a 180 and did something completely different for Christmas: Hence the wheel was born.

Normally I hate gambling (i don't do the dog races and the scratch ticket either, not even the free ones), but it wasn't that bad, only because I was lucky enough to get all the prizes. I saw this as a one-off stray from tradition and I thought they will go back to the awesome style of Halloween and WD, but I was terribly wrong.

Forth comet Valentine’s Day with yet another wheel. I tolerated this event as well, because V-day is a minor event (as it was the previous year): No worries. Surely WD will be back and even better then the first one. (My god was I naive)

Well I was wrong again. They have taken the chance based pricing system to new extremes...well we all know the rest.
I have said this before, EA programmed bunnies in our friends’ towns and I would have enjoyed this event a lot more, if they had let us tap 10 of them per neighbors' town, resulting in 1000 extra eggs a day. Those extra 2 boxes a day would have made a huge difference in our overall attitude towards this event.
