Event Diamonds ?

Am I right in assuming we get diamonds for each event we participate in?

Or, was this event a non-diamond reward event?

I was expecting diamonds from the Boat Event just closed, but alas ZERO!

For some reason I always get my diamond reward a day before the event ends...this did not happen.

I thought "aha!...theyve fixed this feature to reward you when the event 'actually' finishes"...this has not hapened either.

Has anybody received a reward?

Thanks :)

This wasn't a global event, so there were no diamond rewards.

Unfortunately, this event was not a Global event which awards diamonds. This was just a boating event with no global goal which means no diamond reward.

The reason you previously received diamonds the day before was because the global goal was reached before the actual timed end of the event. I presume this was to alleviate any confusion between people who participated in the global event and reached their personal level by the time the global event was reached and those who had not. If SC waited to award diamonds at the actual end time then people would be able to knowingly participate after the global event goal was reached, knowing the diamonds would be awarded and actually not contribute to the overall global total.

Hope this helps clarify some!

Thanks for your replies and explanations...yes, very clear now :)
I just don't recall not receiving them previously...but obviously this has been the case...call it brain-drain from all this river-boating :confused:

(please...no more boat events for a long, long time SC - add fishing to that too:p)
