Did you Rush Brandine or Store her to finish the Saint Patrick's Day quest

I stored her. I wanted the beer keg things and didn't want to pay donuts for them. I also don't think it's fair that I would have to spend my newly acquired 20 donuts simply because I just bought brandine. It was the lesser evil, and I think donuts are worth more than time.

got her in 2013 so didnt have this problem

rushed.... i'm impatient and stupid when it comes to money.

I only had her a week into the pregnate task, so I stowed her.

Neither, I got her last year, so she'd already popped out all three kids.

I probably would have stored her if faced with the decision.

As a premium player I rushed her as I got 20 doughnuts anyways from the Saint Patrick's Day quest in the beginning.
Saint Patrick's Day was my birthday thus the name "Lucky"ZL230

What if they have another Brandine task sometime in the next 90 days? Then you are screwed. They could have people waiting forever to finish this, unless they waste some of their donuts. It is very unfair.

I rusher her, with the 20 donuts and all the extra I got for getting 4000 pie bombs, I figured I didn't loose too much. I must have hit 4000 pie bombs between 5 and 10 times. I was surprised I hit it that many times.

I got Brandine this Valentines but I had started growing corn before the Feb update (after a thread suggested it on here) so I was 30 days into that & couldn't start Brandines grow tomacco task to unlock the spuckler task. I was moving things around to make room for zenith city buildings & accidently stored the farm & lost my corn

(EA needs an "are you sure you want to loose your crop" warning on this) so I was able to do the Paddys day tasks & now I'm proud to have spuckler number 1 on the way & new corn planted. I was lucky but I'm not sure I would have used donuts to speed her up for the barrels. For those that didn't have Brandine anyway, were they able to do the Paddys day tasks? If they were then I agree it is unfair for premium plays to pay even more money to do a quest that freemium players can do without the character & get free donuts. If the quest can be completed without the character then those with her should be able to double task - go for a meal while pregnant...after all she would be eating for 2!

All my Spucklers were already in town, so I didn't need to deal with Brandine. I did sacrifice my corn to get Cletus free because I didn't want to wait for him to finish his 24 hour task.

Zacabeb · March 20, 2015 6:43PM

I shelled out 23 donuts and a Spuckler plopped out. I'd rather not have. But with the Superhero event bonuses doling out donuts like mad, I felt it was worth it. I'm not going to make it a habit though.

Its kind of rare for premiums to be included in event storylines so odds are slim that they had another idea for Brandine in the pipeline in the near future. EA has been pretty good job of taking our feedback and I think they got the messagethis time and here won't be another Brandinegate.

I stored her because I wasn't gonna spend hard earned donuts to rush the birth

Got her in 2014 so I also didn't have this problem! :-)

jaztee123 · March 20, 2015 8:18PM

I haven't done anything yet, but I think I'm going to store her. I figure I'll still be playing in 90 days time and even thought I'm pretty annoyed to lose a months worth of progress, I'd prefer to spend my donuts on something tangible.

LisaSimpsonOH · March 20, 2015 8:52PM

I had less than 30 days on her pregnancy, so I paid the 10 donuts to induce labor. I probably should have waited, but I've got some things coming up which may impede my playing ability.

mrbadxampl · March 20, 2015 9:19PM

I stashed her, it's only a lost month, and not like I need her to rush the kids so she can switch to income...

roshigoth1 · March 20, 2015 10:12PM

I stored her, and it left a bad taste in my mouth. But not as bad as if I'd wasted the donuts. :x
