Bonus boxes changed?

Prev1
As others have pointed out, the bonus box with 3 doughnuts seems to shift one box to to right every time. I've used this myself and it seemed to work reliably. My last two, however, did not seem to follow this pattern anymore. The first one followed shortly after I got the bonus for leveling up so I thought that might have affected it. I just got another one this morning, however and instead of being in the box to the right of the last one, it was in the same box as before.

Has anyone else noticed any change in the previous pattern?

I have never noticed a pattern with the bonus boxes in my almost 2 years of playing.

    Mine has been first, third, first, first since I took notes. Totally random.

    Could be because your doing a max level box and a bonus pie box, maybe there not set the same.
    So you may need to remember what box you had when you max levelled and what box you had when you bonus pied.
    Treat them both as a seperate set of boxes.

    Mine had been following a pattern until last night. I had been getting two right then a left, repeat, never a centre box and this was on both episode one and two. My in game cash is really going down now.

    Mine gave me three on the right the first 4 times in this event, then this time when I chose the right one first (I usually go for the center first), the three were on the left (wasted a bunch of money, and I need it for the latest character). I'm thinking it's random.

    for the level up bonus mine always shifts one to the left.

    well not always but this works for 90% of the time for sure.

    sometimes it is wrong but then once i get the right one i go one to the left again and again and it keeps working.

    the pie bonus etc seems to be random to me.

    but twice i was lucky and i knew exactly how many pies i needed and then went to neighbor visits to get exactly what i needed and then i got the bonus boxes, collected my three donuts and then the boxes came up again. so three more donuts.

    The bonus boxes still follow that rule for me. Always got three donuts by chosing one to the right

    what I've noticed that changed was and maybe it's different for everyone is that if I got donuts in the middle box, it would stay the middle box for a very long time, then when it switched, say it moved right, the right box always had the three donuts till it moved again. Now it's more random for me every time.

    It's always the one on the right, like 33% of the time.

    It's a series of 5 or 6 possibilities and then it repeats.
    but it didn't change

    It's always funny to read unwarranted extrapolation from anecdotal evidence.

    Same pattern as you.

    It's easy to think you see a pattern when there's only 3 possible options. But it's random. I've had three in a row where the 3 donuts were in the middle box. But it's RANDOM.
