The event is ending tomorrow! Don't save your crafting materials!

Today I crafted one more Monsarno library. When I crafted it, I was given the option to "place" or "store", and I selected "store" . Got that little popup saying it had been placed directly into my inventory.

All went well.

Question: I know that when I bring it out, it takes time to "build" (24 hours, I think) ... can I leave it in storage indefinitely without "building" it, and when I DO want to bring it out and use it -- months from now -- can I "build" it THEN? Or does it have to be completely "built" before this event ends? (Kind of late to be asking, huh?)

I don't think the Monsarno library has a build time if I remember right...

you can place and build them whenever you want. no need to worry. it's 4h build time

@Nova_Polari -- Thank you so much for the title change. It's perfect! :)

Does anyone remember what part of last year it was that they had nothing for what seemed like ages? I've been trying to figure it out. Wasn't it, like, 6 weeks with nothing, or is my memory just blowing it out of proportion.

These events seem nonstop now. I had to laugh this time when they had the event, and stuck in the new level (I've lost track of the numbers ... ) and then along came the tie-in (was that related to the costumes?) I feel like it's a roller coaster, and have lost track of which events had which special effects, etc.

A break sure sounds good, but I don't think it should go too long.

EA's timing could have been better thought-out, IMHO. This event took a lot of time, and was rather chaotic, in the midst of final exams, graduations, etc. for a lot of student-players. Now school vacation is beginning at the exact time the event ends, and it would be sort of ironic to have nothing going on in the game just as the students find their time is available to play.

Just my opinion. :)

I think you're referring to the long break last summer. After the Stonecutters event, which was in May/June I believe, there wasn't another full event until CoC which was the end of September.

Sorry, I think I'm missing something with this thread. There's a countdown timer in the game, ending tomorrow...why was EA Support needed to confirm that it was ending tomorrow as if it was unknown?

Cause files says Kill Date for the event, and Farming license end date ingame, is June 4th

I got 1 simpson houseboat, 1 homer decoy (really wanted 2), 1 welcome bob sign, 2 farmers market, 2 gas & grubs, 2 smokehouse, 2 cane field, 9 cactus patch, 8 ticket booth and zero Monsarno walls :(

Looks like Imma hafta use all the theatre masks within the last five minutes to get the Homer decoy and give up on the Simpson houseboat, which I have been saving up towards for soo long (as well as upgrading the theatre to get one hour jobs). I hate myself for selling myself short, but this is in case I cannot use the crafting materials to get it and grab any other ones I haven't grabbed. I'm still kinda angry at myself for missing out a week just because I was afraid of using up too much roaming data while I was overseas while trying to find time to go by a local store to get one of their local sim cards.

Now if I really have to sell myself short because I cannot achieve my goals, one of two, actually three, things has to happen:
1. Another Terwilligers event, probably a sequel, make all items available again, but not as crafting intensive as this one, because that was their mistake, along with some new items to craft. I don't want to have another panic attack just because I can't "gotta catch'em all". This includes any future events involving craftable items. Please, just let us BREATHE. We got stuff to do. Jobs to go to. Papers to correct and file. Take care of our kids or loved ones. Go to school.
2. I'm not being force updated for a while.
3. On sale as premium or cash items! Another thing I can look forward to while save up my cash and/or donuts.

I feel like I'm going to throw a hissy fit if none of the above is happening.

Now I'm just trying to see if I should use my doughnuts to nab Brandine while I'm at it. Or hope Homer comes with enough free doughnuts so I can at least grab the Italian Villa.
