    I think they should of released someting new and free or available for in game cash (not donuts) for the people who already had the stuff from last year, but stikk should of let newer players or people who missed the event for whatever reason get the pub and bush thing

    So the newer people would not have a chance to get the new stuff, so that older people continues to feel special ? :D

    Annettemarc I read your story, and it made me laugh, as I often say that sometimes, this forum looks like a school yard. It is as babyish to whine because older people don't feel as special anymore because newer people finally got some limited time items.

    This is not a competition, and everyone is entitled to have any item that was once in the game. :)

    if you read what I said, I said that the people who are newer or missed the event for some reason last year (eg. I missed half of wacking day becuase I lost my phone) can still get the pub and bush thing that we got last year but it would of been nice to have a new, free thing as well so that players who got the stuff last year still get something new out of it (besides the donuts obviously :-) ) and then obviously the people who weren't playing last time get that thing too, as well as the pub and bush.
    That's basically what I said...

    I misunderstood your other post, now I understand better. :oops:

    I agree with you 100%, old stuff for newer people, new stuff for everyone, yeah ! why not ? :)

    But I don't know where the unique wording came in as I've never seen anything listed as unique.
    Anything you can't get more than one of is unique. I don't think they actually list it as unique, it's just a term used for such an item. The Duff Racer, as mentioned, is unique. Most buildings are unique. Stuff like that.

    How does that make it unique, all of TSTO is unique sort of and not at all. If two people have the DR then it's not unique, being that there's more than one. :wink:

    anyone else feel kinda ripped off that the prize for completing last years Saint Patricks event is now available for in game cash?

    I understand what you were trying to say.

    I've been pretty frustrated with this update. I never expected it to be some huge event but the newer players have definitly benefited more so than anyone else. Which is fine... it's great that they get a chance to get these things but I also understand what you're saying about it not being as special as it once was now that you can buy as many as you want.

    Edited because: frustration.

    I understand exactly what you were trying to say.

    How have the new players benefited more than you or me? New player can get the building, you got the building
    It looks like you benefited now you owe the new player because he feels cheated that you had it longer. Donut items can be bought by both no benefit. The other one from last year that's that whole you benefited thin I mentioned before.
    The topiary yea I finally can get more screw you new guy I got to last year and what a benefit that was. (I can still hear all the complaints from last year)

    Dude :shock: ... I'm a mostly free player so I don't have the donuts to throw away on the two premiums and since I was here last year the only new item available to me is the statue... where as the newer players get the building and character plus everything else which.. as I said.. IS FINE. So in that sense the newer players are getting more out of this update than someone like me. I have nothing against new players getting stuff it just would have been nice to have a couple other options.

I have nothing against new players getting stuff it just would have been nice to have a couple other options.

    Let's toss out the donut items and pretend were all free players on the same level.
    OFlanagans Pub 1,900/1,900
    Shamrock Topiary. Free/10,000
    Leprechuan Statue. NA/25,000

    50ft Magnifying Glass 3,000,000
    Free item this year? NA/free
    Now we pretend were all premium players.
    Wishing well +leprechaun 150 donuts/150 donuts
    Cafe + leprechaun NA/120 donuts

    Bold is the new stuff. And what your saying is the new player got the same new crap that you did, and got stuck with all this old crap (just like all the old crap that he has yet to unlock in inventory instead of waiting for new updates).
    Bottom line is no one got more new content, no one, we all got the same thing. The people keep adding all the old stuff and act like its new content that there not getting. You already have it, and don't deserve new stuff, you would only complain they got 2 as much as you. Your not entitled to get a bunch of stuff for an update. What you expect and what you get can be a let down.
    As far as the topiary it was a freebie and now you can buy more that benefits me, now I finally can have more than one. So no I don't feel ripped off. Maybe the new player feels ripped off because he didn't get one free and has to buy all of his.

    What amazes me the most out of this whole thread is that you all remember how you got the topiary last year. This was what I did this year "It's almost *. Paddy's Day, let me check my inventory to see what decorations I have tucked away...oh, I have a topiary but I wonder why I only got one. Oh well." Today I get the update and the first thing I do is check out the content. I see the topiary and think that I better buy more since I only have one, then I grab the statue and feel a bit disappointed that I don't have enough donuts for the premium items and seriously consider buying donuts because I LOVE *. Paddy's day.

    It never once crossed my mind that I got something free last year that I can buy this year because I didn't remember at all. I was hoping for more items but it is what it is. I'm just impressed you all remember this stuff!

    I think it's the only item I got that wished we could but more for decorating. At the time I was being told I was lucky to get one. Now everyone's complaining that they can get more.

    Yep, that's why I find this game less appealing now, it's seems its starting to cater for newer plays more so than veteran players who have been playing since day dot. Iam starting to loose my love for this game, which I thought couldn't happen?

    I am completely fine with new players getting older items. I always have been.

    I just wish all players could only ever have one in their town. Not a deal-breaker either way, I thought that was cool.
