I got Montymort this afternoon on my newest town without rushing anything with donuts, although I did have 2 premium characters and managed to fit in 5 tasks on 3 days. All other days I did 4 tasks a day. Even having one premium character makes a lot of difference in this event.
It should be possible to turn off automatic updates on your device and that would give you extra time beyond the end date to work on monty mort. You might get a late start the next mini event but those usualy are too easy.
Whoa, whoa, whoa – I only accept cash, bitcoin, or GameStop stock.
I should get Montymort late this evening. I got Angelica Button as soon as she was available, but I still had to rush the rest periods.
I'm of the opinion that the original plan for this event was jumbled to make it harder in the 3rd act. I would have made more sense if you had 1 set of battles against Montymort in each act - Magic users + Beasts. I think that's why they gifted us all those 10 donuts - so we could rush a few tasks and get done before the timer ran out.
I got Montymort a few days ago, but like a number of others had to use donuts to speed things up. This is the first time that I’ve felt pressured to use donuts to complete an event in a timely fashion. In the past, when the EA programmers have erred in this fashion, they have corrected course by issuing a patch. That seems not to have happened for Act 3 of this event. Disappointing.
Heads up Freemium Peeps as we have all seen last few events this year (since Spy) a premium character bought specifically from the event was pretty much need to finish.
Finished the Montymort battles on Thursday and finished up the event quest and character quest shortly after. No premium helpers besides wizard Martin and no rushing necessary.
I finished this as easily as the requirements of any other event but I never ran into any glitches or gameplay issues (like a lot of other people have) that would cause a delay.

Spend donuts. Premium characters are bought for 120 donuts, any less than that spent rushing is good value.
I was considering, but I'm going to wait until closer to the event finish time...see how much further I get...
