I haven't reached part 14 yet, have just sent Milhouse to the control building as part of the Lisa quest in this update. Not entirely confident I will get anything good but hey ho, we all love fences don't we? Lol
I got 100 gold eggs which bought me a gold box, and in the gold box I won the bunny #whatever it is. I suppose some people might class that as a "good" prize but to me it's pretty useless.
Like other people have said I wouldn't take the dialogue too literally, they're just poking fun at all the posts about odds on the forums!
I've opened 30 boxes and still no building so my good prize is any building.
Just looked at the guide and saw I've passed that mission, I got 100 gold eggs.
That part of the quest is a crock of **** for sure. Here's how it went
I only had enough eggs for a blue box, so, i opened the blue box, got 100 gold eggs. Good i thought, i now have 500 golden eggs, lets open the gold box. So i did. What did i get? A frickin' gate, a lousy frickin' gate that is about as useful to me as a toothbrush with no bristles! What's worse, as the ticker slowed down (yeah EA, rub it in with the wheel noises you cheap... anyway, on with the post), the ticker slowed down and it looked like it was goign to stop on Shary Bobbins, but at about a 20 second stop, just randomly went onto the gate, just like the damned wheel used to!
I'm done with this event, EA can shove it, i'm going back to playing the way i did before this event, just building my town and adding the content I want, when i want it.
The dialog says a "good prize" is guaranteed in the next box opened. What have people been getting from THIS box? Should I hold out for the color box with the prize I want most, forgetting strategy for one box?
Please help! I should have enough for either blue or pink in a couple hours.
For my part 14 I got 300 golden eggs from my uncommon box. Then later on I got 100 gold twice in my blue box. Now after I opened my 4th gold box I got Bannana Dictitorship!!!
Just did part14- got 300 gold eggs from my uncommon, and that gave me 500 gold. Spun that... wait. No. There's no spinning now. I clicked the gold box and the invisible wheel :roll: landed on the Dictatorship!
So, definitely still random at that point as I haven't gotten anything good out of my uncommon (pink) box. Spun it 10X so far and have received: 1 tree, 5X 300gold eggs, 2X towel/ umbrella, and 2X set of 3 fences.
And my common (blue) I've spun 13X and received egg council guy on the 11th spin.
And gold I've opened 4x with nothing to write home about until the 4th. The dictatorship.
The first box I opened after Homer "guaranteed" the good prize was some fences...opened another box immediately, and got Chirpy Boy and Bart Junior! Just finished off my common boxes (Pink)...
After homer commented, i opened a pink box (hoping for blocko) but got 100 gold eggs. Opened gold box and got the flying bunny, that i seem to have lost somewhere amongst my town.

But from part 14, I got fences!

Exactly, Homer is even given the forum as the source for his conviction.
Plus he is making fun of the "patterns" they walk in SF.
It's EA's way of making fun of us.
Edit: I got fences.
Today I have opened 5 boxes... 2* 250 pink eggs (common colour/won all big prices of the box), 2* fences (Doh...) and 100 golden eggs.
:evil:
