The Hay Day Scorched Earth Challenge (ver 2.0)

[00becker]

Hi Winky

I'm glad you're enjoying (at least parts of) the challenge. Yes, I'm officially done. I've decided to exclude vacation days from my count 'cause it makes me feel better , so I'm calling it 66 days to complete the challenge. Those mining tools are a [insert expletive] to collect sometimes. But they'll come.

As for round two (three), I'll probably do it again 'cause I LOVE the challenge of it (except for the boring waiting for tools!). Just give me a bit of time to recover . On a side note, I've been selling bunches of stuff in my shop (I can't help myself - selling is totally my thing) and have now reached $1,000,000 for the first time. Did it without even noticing. I wish there was something obscenely expensive to buy from the shop to celebrate other than ugly statuary.

Good luck with the rest of your challenge! And maybe to combat the hoarding take all of your barn stuff (or only produced goods, or only finished products instead of intermediate?) down to 10 in the RSS? Selling is pretty fun

Yay for virtual monetary riches!!!! And I would insert multiple expletives when discussing mining tools! I'll be rounding the $5M mark soon and yes, there should be something to buy besides the decos and stuff. I finally won the BRT a short while ago and that was the only thing I REALLY wanted so I'm hoarding coins and goods now. Lol!!! I agree that selling is fun I just need to actually start doing it. That's the hard part for me. I've done shopping games in the past where I put tons of random stuff in the shop at default prices and let the hoodies scramble to get them. Everyone loves a good sale, right? got the idea from another forumer who does HUGE sales and I had soooo much fun with that.

Please post again when you start the next challenge. Maybe I'll be ready too!!

I am THRILLED to report that I just mined my last platinum ore!!!!!!

I now have 10 platinum bars and 10 loose ores. I've been working on platinum for about 3 weeks now...I officially have 10 of everything, including candy, ores/bars and feed. The platinum was a devil.

Cheddarlimbo is a genius. This challenge was fun, stressful, exciting, depressing and just about any other emotion I can think of. The reward really is in the journey and I've had an amazing time.

I started on 9/3/15 so that's 51 days. I was at 4,490,000 coins and I am now at 5,065,625. Had 330 diamonds and now have 430.

i will definitely be doing this again!!!!!

For the moment i will just answer " maybe". You give me a date... My daring and crazy self just need to convince my hoarding self.
I will strongly think about it.

I've been lurking around this thread for some time and finally I've unlocked lobster pasta and I'm going for it! The only loose ends I wasn't able to tie up are 6 trees that I couldn't harvest in time, so I am putting them aside until the end of the challenge.

I was hoping to read every page of this thread before beginning but I ran out of time . I was able to get some good tips though, thanks to everyone who has completed this before me!
