WORST event ever: let's settle this

Easter because of the random boxes, making it pretty much impossible to complete.

Easter was the first event I experienced. I had no idea what I was doing. I ended up with 3 easter fences from the whole event. Still... in retrospect, it really was crap.

Nice poll thanks. Whacking day did bring extra snakes. You got whack boxes for a chance at donuts or money. Really I just pointed this out to post about whack boxes :)

Nothing else was close to being as bad as Easter. My pick for second worst would be Christmas 2013, though, I do miss the snow. CoC has sort of been mid-pack for me.

Agreed. I personally thought easter was very dishonest about which items were truly prizes, and which were essentially premium items.

(Note: premium items are 100% okay with me, but don't hide them behind a facade of being something you can earn with event currency.)

Good to know, thanks! I must have missed that in the wiki description. Considering what a grind I heard it was, though, I'll leave the joke in.
(I started playing on a kindle, didn't have the game available until after whacking day.)

Clash if clones is in no way a 'bad' event, it's just been poorly conceived. The idea is good but the fact it promotes costing randomers over neighbours is odd. And the fact that its the longest event we have ever had when you could complete it in about 2 weeks at most is completely baffling.
If the event was set to end next week, rather than the 2nd of October I don't think it would get so much stick- it's just it's about boring for as long as it lasts.


Easter was easily the worst, they took everything we hated from Christmas and vallentines( mystery boxes(I'm ok with them in small amounts)) and made them insane- it was actually possible to play te whole event and get nothing you wanted if you were incredibly unlucky and couldn't play enough to get the guarantees number.

Mystery boxes are bad enough, but the fact they made it hard to even receive a go on certain mystery boxes( gold and te other colour) is what made it DAMN RIGHT UNFORGIVABLE


And actually that stupid fabargie egg that was almost impossible to unlock and meant no one could get egg baskets for weeks too.
Definitely Easter was the worst

Christmas 2013 was pretty bad with that freaking wheel. But,Easter was by far the most hair pulling event ever put forth in this game. Unless you spent $50 on donuts,no way could you finish that mess of an event.

Easter is the only event that I haven't received everything that's free so far, just because there was no way you could control it so even if you played all day there was no guarantee of anything.
So missed the Mexican building, shary bobbings and the priest

Well done poll. I've only been playing since 12-13 so my experience is limited. But I did NOT enjoy Easter 2014.

Worst event so far: Easter - somehow it translated as three wheels; the only way to get a chance of obtaining all the "prizes" was to gamble money. Was like Las Vegas slots, no guarantee of winning the prices regardless of the amount of money spend.

First runner up Valentine's day 2014. Wheel -against very negative feed back from gamers.

Second runner up Christmas 2013. Introducing "the wheel".
