1. did they speed up the time that it takes for money on the ground to get collected??? seems faster?

Yes, time was reduced from 10 seconds to 5 seconds

2. did they increase the speed/amount that you can scroll through the buildings/decoration list with 1 swipe?

Yes, also includes smoother movement. Also affects taskbook and anything that scrolls

3. did they change when you click the trophy??? it used to show every prize, and the amount.. now theyre all darkened out and mysterious.

No, only the ones you have are lit up. It never showed all in full color, just the name of the item was next. Once you get a prize, it is lit up.

also. I have a friend with 33,000 emblems.. how?

already answered above from another forum member.

Why do you care? Just play the game for yourself, too many people get so concerned when they see neighbors that have completed the event already by paying for everything. If it bothers you just un-friend them.

someone with more donuts than brains..

don't know why people speed thru events half the fun is going thru quests etc to unlock the prizes.. plus it's just a waste of money

Well, sounds like cheating not donuts to me....and I don't like people who hack their games....so indeed as said above..unfriend them (although I would care just like you :wink: ).

I agree, however, I find myself speeding characters through their tasks when I need one of them for one of number 1's tasks. Kind of makes me cringe every time. I think I will just leave my characters free for most of this event...

That's what I do, they're all just wandering around just in case.....lol :mrgreen:

Ditto, I leave everyone free (unless needed for the questline or one of the parchment puzzles) until I get the fourth task, in case I need them.


One of the things I find neat about this event is that not all of it can be sped through. You might be able to get all the emblem prizes with donuts, but the parchment only unlocks one bit per day, and there's no donut option. No one is getting Grandpa's stonecutter skin until the fifth day of the event, full stop. It's a great way to keep interest, I think.

Totally agree. And the daily tasks (with actual big amounts of emblems to be earned) make me actually interested in playing. Something that TSTO hasn't done for me in a long time.

i'm putting characters on 1 or 2 hour tasks during the day and 8-12 hour when i go to bed works perfectly as they are usually always ready for number 1 tasks.

Once I determine how much time the quest takes I put the other characters on tasks of the same amount - then everyone is finished at the same time for the next quest/test. Course, i need the money - just made my first million woo hoo! - I know many people have lots.

As an admitted occasional task-speeder-upper in the past, I was stunned to see it costs 40 donuts to speed up even those one-hour tasks from Number 1. Wow. THAT is a waste of donuts. Even for ME. :shock:
