Lots of fences in my final hours. What about you?

Was at 48/50 with 100 gold eggs and 500ish of each other color. Got another 300 gold, another 100 gold, and spun up my last gold box for the two necessary fences and my 15 donuts.

    Just wondering if anyone else had this experience. If there was any overall weighting toward fences in the final hours. I opened 8 boxes in the final hours--all but one were fences. 7 blue box opens (my "rare"), all but one produced fences. The one that wasn't a fence were golden eggs, which gave me enough for a golden box open. That open produced pastel fences.

    It just seemed uncanny.

    The way I figured it, maybe it was a final "push" for those trying to get 15 donuts from 50 fences. With the first fence open, I hit my 50 and got the donuts. But it was still all fences after that! So something that was super exciting initially, became very annoying very quickly. Maybe EA hoped I would shell out more donuts for extra eggs.

    So weird. Did anyone else get a crazy amount of fences in the last few hours? I know it's useless to speculate really, just wondering.

    My side town still got fences in the blue box (uncommon egg). I have 400 golden eggs and needed one hundred golden eggs to open a gold box.

    I guess I just feel like from EA's perspective, it would be a good strategy. Because on the one hand you may make a portion of the players happy for hitting 50 fences, but you also infuriate a portion too because they are literally useless and make you want to actually spend.

    AND I can't help but feel like once you hit 50 fences they should be taken out of the rotation. I think that would be a well-deserved reward for having 50 stupid fences and having played that much. At least increase the odds you get something you want.

    OMG, I cannot TELL YOU how many egg piles and spring ponds I have. It's a gross amount.

    Never thought I would say this but I wish I were lucky enough to get fences on my last box.. I had managed to scrape together enough for one final uncommon box. Hoping to either get blocko store, gold eggs so I could open one last gold box or one last set of fences.. Im at 47 so one more set would net me 15 donuts.. But nope, instead I got another beach towel added to the 7 I already had..

    That ending pretty much sums up the entire event.


    Trying to decide now if I want to go ahead and update now or wait until maybe tomorrow to get together enough for one more box..

    Ugh. That is rough.

    I just got a new phone about a month ago, and I forgot to change it from automatically updating. I was right on the cusp for another box. Maybe THAT would have been my Johnny Fiesta or Bobbins box. Maybe. Just as well I guess. Probability-wise, it was more likely to make me upset again. It's like they know what you want, and just don't give it to you.

    I'll keep my fingers crossed for you on fences.

    Yep that's all I got too. I'm really disappointed with the Easter update. I read on many cites that u shouldn't buy eggs cause your guaranteed to get all the prizes. Well that was a LIE! The only good prize I got was the egg counsel guy. EVERYTHING else were fences, egg piles, trees and beach blankets. It's completely disappointing to say the least. Needless to say u spent money anyway and still came up empty. I feel robbed and I'm done with tsto. I'll spend my money on a game that doesn't cheat it's players. If there is one.

    I got common eggs in my last couple boxes.

    I'm holding out, though. Might get another box or two open before I'm required to update.

    Been scraping enough eggs together for my final spins. Today I've traded 2000 pink eggs (my common) for 1000 blues, to get two final spins. In both of them I won 300 gold eggs. My spin on the gold box gave me 250 pink eggs. :evil: That was worth it. :roll:

    This event has been the worst since I started playing this game early 2013. Utterly stupid format - I've only got four halfway decent prizes in all that time - Blocko Store, Hugs Bunny, Banana Republic and Chirpy Boy/Bart Jnr. The rest of it has been eggs, fences, trees or beach towels.

    holdin' out with ya. c'mon bunnies...

    i'll flip if i can make another neighbor sweep in 10 hrs. not that i'm expecting much from the single chance i could earn.

    getting the f-egg would be nice at least if i cant earn another box.

    c'mon bunnies!
    All my designs look unfinished because i can't place as many plants, streetlights, and fences as i would like. PLEASE REMOVE THE LIMIT, EA!

    So I had 49 fences coming into the update, so I figured I'd forgo wait out the auto update to try for another gold box (father sean or sharry bobbins) or get my last fence. Plugged all day long while at work and bam! Got another fence and sum donuts. Nice since I'm freemium now after being premium for over a year now

    Another pond, egg pile, and 2 sets of Easter fences while sitting on 400 gold eggs. Ah well I got most of the loot I wanted.

    I ended up with 70 Easter fences and 50 pastels. Better than ponds I guess. Egg piles are my most despised decorations. They just look ugly.
