Is this your first derby? They were pretty common in the previous two.Quote:

I am not aware that we would have made any changes to the tasks. We might do some minor balance changes in the next update though. :)

No, not first but I do not trash many tasks because my family (neighbors) do not play often so I want to leave the easy low points tasks for them. I tend to tackle the big tasks and thus noticed I have never done 1 for 300+.Quote:

But I'm not seeing the high point tasks yet either, except for a couple of trucks and then indigo and chili peppers, like the DD doesn't have enough indigo in it already, gacckk.
Will keep trying. Sigh.
Even though I trashed a lot of orders from the board, I haven't seen a lot of 300 plus tasks in any of the Derbys do far.
Which was what made me wonder about people saying to trash all but the 300 plus tasks.
I chose a 305 point task which is truck orders for my last task so now I have till the end of the derby to complete it.
In general I am content if it's 270 or over.
I think they should have the low to high paying tasks equal. If you do a high paying task, then it is replaced with a high paying task and vice versa. Then you can cater for everyones level and high level players like me, don't have to wait wait wait and wait to get a good task.
However, I did notice, the last few days of derby, it is a bit easier to get the higher tasks, because people are done. I will wait until I can get a good one.
Elders should be included to keep it consistent with invite settings. Our leader sometimes isn't available due to work and after the recent debacle with derby he's a little miffed and is not playing at the moment.... Just another example where sc do not communicate effectively or test effectively!!Quote:

In a small neighbourhood of 4 with only 2 active I have found no competition and won the previous races easily. But this one is different anf am finding it much more competitive with everyone putting in some early high scores.
Yes, we had the same when this derby started. We kept on going trashing several tasks the whole day yesterday. Today it's not as bad as yesterday.
