i have a new puzzle piece boat coming!

[shepherdgirl]

Me too!!! Woke up, filled a boat, sent it off ... puzzle boat next!

I'll see if it follows the "first and third" rule. It would be nice to know if we were limited to two puzzle boats per week. And can we send one away unfilled and get another?? That would make a huge difference in whether or not we fill the hard ones!

I don't think anyone dares risk it to find out.

I dared. Well it's not like I was brave or anything, I just couldn't justify trading 9 gnocchi, 21 sugars, and 15 duck feathers for 1 stupid jigsaw piece.

No new puzzle boat I wasn't expecting one, this is just to confirm it.

It might be just dumb luck but every one of the 3 puzzle boats that I have had had asked for something crazy like syrup, cheese or lobster tails.

Kind of like the town visitors who want to see my elephant. Every single one of them has wanted to visit 3 buildings first.

I, too, sent off my boat and a puzzle boat is in queue now.

I don't think SC is going to disclose how many puzzle pieces you can get from each method a week. I don't recall them telling us how many permits we could get a week using various methods. I think for now it is safe to expect up to: 2/week from boat and 2/week from derby prizes. As for red chests, I still don't know as I have no received any from red chests yet.

It's looking like the algorithm is 2 PP a week via boats. I too have got a puzzle boat on its way. I expect it will be a normal one after that then another puzzle boat before a drought until next week.

I just can't see how the sanctuary is actually making SC any extra revenue. If we can't speed up boats to get more pieces and the other PP are "randomly spawned" then what exactly is the benefit to SC?

This whole PP collecting is just ridiculously frustrating/boring as I have no influence over obtaining them. Even if we got the chance every 10 boats, at least it would be in our control.

I'm sure there will be other ways of getting them, but it's not really the point. I don't need or expect them to confirm the coding, but just to tell us if this is working as they planned or not. Yes or no. It's not a complicated question.

[Glottis]

There appears to be no change from last week. 1st and 3rd boats are puzzle boats and then nothing. I don't think yesterday's maintenance did anything as far as puzzle pieces. Very dissappointing if the cap of 2 a week is intended and not just a glitch they haven't fixed yet.

You might be right. 1st and 3rd (next) boats have puzzle pieces for me too. I hope history won't repeat itself.

I didn't check my next boat, but I did get one in the sea chest this morning!

Edit: I just checked and my next boat DOES have a PP. yay

[EllunaHellen]

Huh, mine isn't following the "first and third" rule! I finished a puzzle boat earlier today, then one that didn't give me a puzzle piece, and the next one isn't going to have one either.

same for me, I had a puzzle piece boat yesterday evening, so that is the 3rd. Following boats no pieces.

Yes, but I think I just got my first and so far only one this week this morning!
