On track for another failed event

I don't do a lot of boats. I cast off most of my boats when I was in the lower level, coin-hungry stage, and kind of got in the habit. Basically, I only do boats if they are easy - that is, if I have the stuff in stock and don't mind parting with it.

So how did I get Boat Score Hunter III?

Mostly by filling other people's crates. No waiting around for your boat to arrive, just check the DD. And you can fill only the crates you want to fill.

Many people work on weekends so perhaps events on other days may suit them.

I don't do those boats either, I cast them off empty, as I said in my post, I had to cast off a boat already. I have found to if you keep those precious items to high or to low you will get more boats asking for them. I might be crazy on this observation, but it seems to me the boat orders tend to have 1 item that you have lots of and 1 you don't have many on.

My next boat is asking for chili popcorn, this is probably the 5th boat since yesterday that has had chili popcorn on it. While not a big deal because you can find plenty in the paper, my supply has been low because of all these boats. I was going to buy a bunch to get my stock back up, but no reason to as I would rather keep getting chili popcorn on a boat order.

My rewards so far have been:
1. 2 shovels
2. 2 screws
3. 2 land deeds

And since I'm taking care of my fathers farm for a while:
1. 2 dynamites
2. 2 nails
3. 2 marker stakes

No gold vouchers so far but I'm happy with the rewards, anything is better than nothing or no event.

For us in japan its holiday time. For the next week or so many players will be offline as they visit family around japan.

On a side note though this is just nromal boat filling. Some you do others you don't. I think of the rewards as a bonus to the coins and Xp I get so i don't really worry. Now the 5 diamonds will be nice but I'd rather work for the special prizes like the egg basket we tried for in the last event. If we reach the global total great if not well there is always next time.
