Am curious

First off, this isn't a complaint, but I'm curious if these new global events Supercell has introduced will be changed up with the old events at some future point? I guess I expected one of the more familiar ones rather than back to back globals.

The idea of working toward a global total is a great concept, yet I know many players have their favorite old event whether for double XP, vouchers, or coin. While prizes and 5 diamonds are a nice incentive to participate, churning out the same product day after day to reach the goal must surely become monotonous and disrupt the production of other goods, or least it was according to others after last week's B&E event.

Is anyone else curious about this or maybe Nick or any of the mods who may be in the know care to weigh in?

I hope they switch them up. Maybe one week an original event and the next week a global production goal? I am curious too, as I want boat double vouchers event and little people double coins event.

I would like to see it mixed up too - some global events and some of the others.
I just completed the third part of the pumpkin pie challenge and so far have axes, a decoration and saws. I was hoping for shovels:( I will keep going for now as I can always give them away sooner. I am not complaining but would definitely like a mix.:)

This is week 2 of the global event and I am already tired of it. Wanted the bots , definitely need double xp, and double voucher that would be more fun ... 5 diamonds is nothing

I agree exactly. I rely on the double voucher/double coin events, otherwise getting what I need (lures, pets, prep for next machine) would be more challenging and less fun. I was hoping this week would be truck event, I have a bracelet order just waiting for it! Lol. I like both event types, but a break from global event is needed, mixing it from week to week is the best. :)

And i agree with haydayplayer2, double vouchers and double coin events are far more fun, interesting because they have variety, and are just better rewards too, IMO. :D

I for one liked the double voucher boat event far more than these global events, but I still need more animals so ... But would rather have the lil people double coin event as well. But I'm not complaining either.

I was hoping for the truck event too. I had my barn ready. My board had all green checks just waiting for everything to double.:(

Instead of offering 5 diamonds, they should offer 5 golden vouchers!!

Vote for events with double vouchers, gold and so on!
Whatever it is!

I, too, would love to see them mix it up with personal events. These global things are fun, but I am stressed about my pie situation, and I am *never* stressed about pies. :p

And I vow to do well on the bot event this time!! :)

I feel dumb right now but I'm going to ask this anyway. What's a BOT?

It's the little people who come to your farm asking for stuff i.e greg, the little girl, mary poppins etc

I vote to mix it up too. The global events, well, they're not my thing though I know others enjoy them. I, too, was hoping for a truck challenge this time. 5 more days to go. <fingers crossed>

ha ha!! That WOULD be nice, now wouldn't it?

and yes, I concur. Mix it up. Some depend on double events to earn money quickly. ;)

You are not alone. I had never seen them referred to as bots before so I too had no idea what or who these "bots" were. I had to take a guess. Little people, yes. But not bots.

Interesting though. Is it because they are annoying like bots? Because if so then yes, they ARE bots. Annoying little bots. Now my cats even hang out with them I have recently noticed. Greeeeaaat.

I kind of like them. They are a big relief when you are wheating, buy huge amounts of it for higher price than sales price in my RSS. Same counts for eggs. You can keep them under control making sure you have no zero items, so one of anything at least and they will never ask for that.

In fact they only ask for items you have most or second most in both storages (besides zero items)So when wheating, keep another crop at high level too. The little people will buy either. Make sure you have eggs and someting else on high levels et voila: it is you who controls their demands.

Btw I prefer boat and truck events rather than little people because of the vouchers :o

Edit: they never buy ore but I like to feed them with bread which you can easily keep as high as eggs.

I asked once, too and Googled it as well. Short fort robots in tech language. It was confirmed in the forum. They are automated/programmed to visit your farm and ask for certain items. I still call them little people. Although BOT is shorter and easier to to type, specially when in the iphone.

I too was hoping for one of the other events! Definitely needs mixing up.

That is a great point and you reminded me of a time I was but a wee farm and had RSS stands all filled, no space in barn and was blocked all ways to buy stuff in the DD. I was waiting for a LP/BOT to come my way and buy something, ANYTHING, just so I could make room.

As far as getting more than RSS prices on wheat, I will have to try that. I have never seen them offering me more than RSS sale in a non-event sale. I'll do that later and see :)
