Vouchers earned for helping and used at gift shop

Ok, so I have had it with the vouchers and helping friends. Tonite I received only 1 voucher even though I helped dozens of friends and even from Newspaper ads. 1 VOUCHER!!!
My other beef is that on all the farms all I see are those red&white windmills I have tried to get one at least 5 times from the gift shop using my vouchers (35) and even though the picture clearly shows the R&W windmill. Just yesterday I used my 35 vouchers and to my total disgust what did I received, the bloody butterfly decoration. Are u kidding me???? 35 vouchers (that seem to be harder and harder to get) for that ♥♥♥♥!!!!
There is almost no more incentive to help or want to help my friends anymore!!!! Which I have always done.
I am slowly losing interest in this game!!!! :(

I feel your 35 wasted gift card pain! The past few weeks I've saved to get the 35 gift cards items.
The first and second time, I was trying for the BRT. Instead I ended up with 2 heart topiaries. Today I tried for the windmill and got a 3 layer topiary instead :(

I wish the odds of winning were better.

So far, I have ordered gift boxes three times (all small ones). I got the shown frog thing 2 times and 3 diamonds one time. Maybe I was lucky, or maybe the game is rigged to make me get increasingly unluckier each time... I don't know.

Totally agree and am disillusioned, shame because I like to help,especially the trees etc. the last two boxes i got both had a chocolate cornet ice cream, all that effort for ice creams I could have made myself - not happy!😒

I think the amount of gift cards the item takes, the harder it is to get it. I remember the frog is the first one I tried for and I got it on my first try. The turtle took a few times and the fountain took FOREVER. I can only imagine the BRT and the windmill are going to take 247997643x more tries than all the others combined.

When we dont get the item were shooting for, I think we should at least get items that are harder to make (jewelry, metal bars, ect) and not easy to make items or items that are really easy to get, such as things Tom can fetch or WOF stuff.

Do u know what pisses me off??? Almost every one of my friends has not 1 windmill but 2 or 3. Every time I go help on their farm and I see all the windmills I get agitated. :(
BTW what is a BRT? LOL

Brt is big red tractor (or beautiful red tractor, if you really want one, like me:))

Check out the brt thread on the off topic section, which is all about failing to win anything desirable with the 'misery' vouchers......including windmills.......

........because I don't like any of all; so not getting a windmill or brt doesn't frustrate me. From the gnomes I received there is just 1 on my farm, hidden behind my barn at the riverside and some trees. She stands there to chase away the frogs (at the time I got her I had not enough coins for more fences, so I used her).
And it works! Frogs don't like her, I suppose :rolleyes:

Well I'm living proof that if you wish for something hard enough eventually you get it....that big red tractor decorating my farm was all mine for just 35 gift tokens! So, so happy ;) (I am aware that this, ironically, makes me a sad sad individual! lol)

Who's looking forward to the next update then?

Guys, don't want to be a party pooper but there is a really long running thread for all this, so could you whinge away on:

http://forum.supercell.net/showthrea...Disappointment

Or, as I like to call it 'the postman misery package thread'

Perhaps a nice mod will come along and combine this thread .....

I have used hundreds trying to get the turtle and brt, I always get useless items. A hammer! (Done all my expansions) coins all sorts. So annoying.

Thanks I did not know. Will check it out. Well today I used 10 vouchers and at least got something useful. 3 syrup(maybe not enough but useful )

May I point out that in the past, there were no thank you notes at all, and we helped each other out just to get the XP and boat points? I try to view anything I get from the thank you notes as a bonus, no matter what it is.

I only have two suggestions for improvement--

** that the number of vouchers should not be capped; it should be proportional to the number of times you help
** you should be able to choose a category of prize that you want (hardware, product, decoration, coins) and each of these would have a small chance of giving you diamonds instead
