I wish we could get more lights for houses. You know Sarah puts out decorations!
Just a FYI. I haven't sped up anything but I got my first coin and I got $1000. Long time player, first time spinner.
Obviously I want the skinner house lights. Other than that I'm fine.
Does Barney skin give you Barney and bowl a Rama?
That's a good question, but I doubt it. I presume if you didn't have Bowlarama or Barney and win Plow King Barney on the spinner, you just get Plow King Barney (since that version has his own separate tasks list).

It's definitely rigged. I finally got everything, but it took about 80+ spins.

Not convinced it's rigged. Not everybody can win every time. It's like the lotto.
That's why people spend 400 donuts to get a prize :D
Trust me, it's rigged. It may not seem like it to people who weren't playing last year and missed out on the alternate house Christmas lights skins or snowmen, but I think the supposed 30% chance of getting cash, yet it landing on cash 80-90% of the time clearly shows it's rigged. More appropriately it's rigged to work against long term players and donut spenders as opposed to new and free players, since the new and free players have more chance of getting something they want, since they didn't already have the snowmen and Christmas lights.ate house Christmas lights skins or snowmen, but I think the supposed 30% chance of getting cash, yet it landing on cash 80-90% of the time clearly shows it's rigged.

Stop complaining about the wheel... I'm still waiting to have it!!!
First have the egg nog bar since yesterday, the mall, playing hourly... And nothing!!
No, I won't stop complaining about it. And considering you haven't even tried it yet to see how it works, that kind of negates any opinion you have of it since you're ignorant about the odds until trying it, most especially if you're not a long time player and donut spender.

I know it's rigged, it's really fair until the last two good prizes.. Proof thats it's rigged? I bet NOONE has plow king
Actually plenty of people have Plow King, he was the second to last item I needed after Clausco.
But the first 30 spins were really fair, I got every houses christmas lights, clause co, helter shelter, mr plow and all the snowmen right away.. But after that it LITERALLY speeds up or slows down for the money, but I can't blame em, if I got the last two (monster and plow king) then I'd stop playing, so ill jus wait it out w my free spins they'll do me right before the events over.. Jus gotta be patient
Last edit-there's no way out of 120 spins I paid for that I hit money or gift cards every time, I watch it keep moving very slow to get to the money, or if its goin pretty fast on the money it jus stops.. It's freakin digital of course it's rigged
Exactly. Most people who think it isn't rigged didn't already have the Christmas lights building skins or snowmen from last year. They're completely overlooking my point about it being stacked against those of us who played last year and already had all that stuff.

Plow King came within my first 20 spins. I can't seem to get the Clausco building. My wheel has all gift cards and cash on it except this one building.
I'm convinced there's a strategy. I've been able to spin it slowly, moderate and super fast. I've been trying to determine which spot on the wheel should be on the arrow when starting a spin.
My most infuriating moment is when it hit the Clausco and didn't quite roll over, but it gave me the cash (saying I did roll it over). I've seen it glitch like that where the arrow won't click over the line, but will say it did and give you that prize instead. I've seen the opposite once where I thought it clicked over, but it did give me the prize it was stuck on.
Thank you! That happened to be at least 10 times. It'd be on the ticker and still on something I wanted but give me cash instead, or when it was on cash it would never tick to the next prize, but did it nearly everytime when it was on something I wanted, and move to cash. How are more people not noticing that?
Basically, if you want one of the good prizes, you better hope it stops right on the middle of that wheel section, else it's cash or (more rarely) gift cards.

Spinner wheel is ridiculous...ly awesome!!!
Will easily obtain all these prizes. Should get to 30k cards within the next 7/8 days then I'll get 3 tokens a day!!! Thank you EA for this wonderful fun opportunity. No disrespect to those that bought donuts but I see absolutely no reason to do so. (Ok maybe the last day if you haven't caught up somehow)
Peace.
Unless you have the luck of the gods, prepare to spend on donuts. For the thousandth time, if you didn't already have the snowmen and lights from last year, you're going to have pretty good luck getting those. Once you've gotten them all, let me know how much luck you have with Plow King, Helter Shelter, Clausco, Indian Ice Goddess, etc. Those were all I needed, since I had all the snowmen and lights, therefore I was up against the bad odds from the very start. Why do people not understand this? It's rigged against the long term players and donut spenders. And once you've gotten all the snowmen and lights, prepare to get cash 80-90% of the time even though it should only be 30% of the time. That speaks to it being rigged to me.

People here don't understand maths, it's a 3 out of 10 chance every time for cash I believe, haven't unlocked te wheel yet , this means that every time you go you had a 30% chance of getting them. Not that if you have ten attempts you're guaranteed cash only 3 times.
It's luck of the draw, those who hae won more increase the cash odds and so are unlikely to get the main prize straight away, just like the lottery in the sense that you can enter every week of your life, but still not win a penny because the chance doesn't work that way.
Right, except once the snowmen and house lights are all collected, even though cash only takes up 30% of the wheel, you land on cash 80-90% of the time, and gift cards maybe 10-15% of the time. Hence, it's likely rigged to not give the prizes people actually want, forcing them to buy donuts. Expect to spend 300-500 donuts if you want everything.

Seriously? According to the wheel, there's a 30% chance to get cash (since it occupies 3 of 10 spaces),
Just let me pay donuts for the stuff I want, forget this chance/lottery crap, since it's blatantly fixed beyond the supposed 10% chance for each wheel space. That's obviously not the case, so at least stop promoting it that way.
Can you show me where the wheel says that? I mean, you obviously read it somewhere in the promotion, right? Otherwise, you just made an assumption, proved it wrong, and then got mad at the game because your assumption was wrong.
Did you go to school and learn about statistics and probability at all? The cash prizes (once all snowmen and Christmas lights are collected) take up 3 spaces of the board, on which there are 10 spaces, hence there's a 30% chance to land on them (or so they'd have you believe). Yet personally, of the 80+ spins I did by buying tokens with donuts, I landed on cash the vast majority of the time, 80-90%. Your argument basically backs up my point that the spinner is rigged. My God, man, try working on your reading comprehension and critical thinking skills, please.
Now, if the good prizes spaces (Clausco, Plow King, etc), were half the size of the cash or gift cards, that'd reflect the chances more accurately. But that's not the case, all spaces on the wheel are equally sized, indicating an equal chance of landing on each one. But that's obviously not the case.
Come back when you have something worthwhile and intelligent to add.

Merely a game of chance. I was fortunate to get most of the snow characters and house lights my first 15 spins, but in an attempt to get ClausCo. I shelled out another 50 donuts and of the 10 spins 8 were cash, the other two were gift cards.
Fun stuff!
Again, you're going to have very good luck early on if you didn't already own the snowmen and lights from last year, since those will occupy most spaces on your wheel until you win them. Your subsequent spins where you got cash 8/10 times, even though there were only 3/10 spaces on the wheel for cash, helps prove my point.

I'm telling you, after you get everything except cash and gift cards they will leave 2 prizes you CAN'T win.. There's no way that I would get cash 120/120 spins.. It's digital!!!! It has nothing to do with chance
Just because its digital doesn't mean the game can't be programmed/coded to favor certain prizes.
You're proving my point for me, thanks. That basically boils down to a form of false advertising, since the wheel is presented as being equally likely to land on any space, but it's obviously coded otherwise, making the odds of landing on Clausco, Plow King, Helter Shelter quite small. Luckily for EA this is legal since the "gambling" doesn't involve real money prizes, but instead digital items for your game, therefore isn't subject to oversight by any state or federal gaming/gambling laws or oversight.
