Is anyone else worried that this will effect our game later when we have to craft this for our daily task? (sorry for spoiler, but I think it's important)
Do NOT craft this early. It is part of the challenge for Week 2! If you have crafted this - it doesn't count and you cannot craft another one!! SO no BO-NUTS for me!! Unless EA do a patch so those of us who have crafted it already get credited for doing it......
Surely it works like a level quest, if you already have the building or decoration, it auto completes the task. They shouldn't have released it until the day the task hits if they are going to penalise people for crafting it ASAP, especially since a majority are unaware of the upcoming task.

This.
Even if 4tee3 hadn't suggested it most of us would have crafted the "Slightly Irregular Tree" because it was a cheap craft item. The way EA replaced Act 1 crafting items without leaving the items throughout the whole event like normal, people are trying to get what they want fast...before they're gone
I had already crafted this and now the weekly challenge wont continue as it still showing that i need to craft it which i cannot cos it is a one off item :roll:
Is it a unique item? We have to craft one as part of next week's weekly challenge, so don't want to jump too soon if it's unique and won't be credited then.
This.
Do we craft now and risk losing 20 donuts next week if there is a glitch and we are not credited with having already crafted it?
Which is exactly what has happened to my wife. She crafted it previously and now it's part of a weekly challenge.

Thanks for contacting EA Customer Experience, my name is Naveen. How may I assist you today?
you
I would like to report a problem with tapped out
you
A quick check on the forum suggests this is a widespread problem
Naveen
Please let me know your issue, I will do my best to address your concern.
you
I am unable to complete the first daily challenge for this week.
you
I had already crafted the xmas tree lot
you
And given that it is a unique item I cannot craft another.
you
In previous cases like this the challenge has just autocompleted
Naveen
Please allow me a moment to consult your issue with specialist.
you
Sure
Naveen
Thank you for waiting.
you
No problem
Naveen
I have consulted your issue with specialists.
Naveen
Specialists says that many players are facing this issue.
Naveen
And this is reported to concern team.
Naveen
Ad they are working on resolution.
Naveen
And hope this issue will be resolved very soon.
you
Cool thanks for the information
you
I'm presuming this is likely to be rolled out as a content update and there's no need for me to take any further action?
Naveen
You don't have to worry.
Naveen
Once the issue is resolved specialists will launch patch for the resolution of this issue.
Looks like EA are working on a fix
Thank you for publishing this, I tried to connect that live chat for hours with no result.
I crafted xmas tree stuff immediately, it was logical as it produces an event currency, so don't worry I am sure lots of people have done this without your recommendation.
I think it is 100% a bug and the patch from EA is the only way to solve it. The main question is will they be able to release it before weekly challenge end and in case they are not will they then compensate those 20 donuts. That's it.
Well we still have like 6 days before it expires, so EA might have a fix but not immediately.
I don't believe you need to complete WC Day 1 in order to start WC Day 2, so just do 2, 3, 4 and 5 and by then they'll probably have a fix that allows the already crafted tree to count and you get your donuts.
Besides, I am glad I crafed it early. I have gotten almost 1500 mistletoe from it and am almost to 10K so I can wait a few more days for the challenge.

I have no insider info but I'm sure it will get sorted.

No luck for me yet and it is early evening here.

Is that like my ea scrabble game that I havent been able to play for over a month and which they have released a new update and I still cant play?
Apparently they are treating my issue with scrabble as a priority!
Dont hold your breath. Whilst the colour blue can be calming ....
