Well, so much for the hopeful addition of Bianca for now.

Knowing how Gameloft does things, the next update will bring Penny, Rufus the Cat and Mr. Chairman. Then they'll do another update with Madame Medusa and Mr. Snoops. Then finally a year from now there'll be a Tower Challenge for Bianca.

Like others, there is not a single thing available from this tower challenge that I do not already have. But if I work really hard and send the characters against Maleficent around the clock for the next 17 days, I will be able to save up all of my event currency which will then be converted to... 2 or 3 gems at most.

The tower events used to be good. Newer players had a chance to get characters and buildings that they didn't have yet while older players could work towards a new character. But they have become useless for many older players.

Off topic: Does anyone have YouTubeTV? Do you like it? I am considering cutting the cord (including cable DVR).

Not a TV fan, actually. Wrong person to contribute to this conversation

Not too concerned about Medusa as she was never one of my favorite characters. As for Bianca, we'll get her, but only after we get Evinrude, all of the swamp hillbilly creatures, the two crocodiles, and six of the members of the human United Nations.

Update regarding my parade upgrade. I upgraded to 6/7 floats a week ago today. I stood at 11 gems. I now have 52 gems, which definitely included getting some gems from a character level up. Not impressed. I expected more than 41 gems in a week. Wish I recalled how many of those were from the level up. And yes, I ran the parade at all availability and played all of my available adds for gems, including the stupid bronze chest ads.

Well I cut the cord a long time ago. I am not a fan of US TV. I have Amazon fire cube or firestick and stream things that I wish to see through various Addons. Watch a lot of European TV and movies and shows thru those addons.

Don’t forget the seven additional Star Wars events that will run between now and then.

How do you like the fire cube? Any cool features? I only have fire sticks.

Plenty of time to add 17 Ewoks.

Same. Any TV we watch is either European or Mediterranean. She loves Turkish shows, especially.

I'm wondering what's going on myself. Suddenly my parade gems have dried up over the past three days. Looks like these idiots are changing things up. Happiness decreasing faster, parades taking longer to cool down, etc. Lovely.

We have Sling (I really only watch news on it, but I know there are more options). I don't miss TV at all and I'm so glad we cut the cable. We do have a nice bunch of streaming services though, and an Apple TV to tie it all together.

Fire Cube gives you more storage space and generally runs better.

Well, either I'm a jinx or, as in real life, my timing is *spectacular*.

I know it's all conspiracy theory stuff, but remember that we've busted their Gameloft moles twice now here in the forums. So even the interns have research interns. I seriously wouldn't put it past them to read comments here about how well players are doing with gems from parades and so they scaled back the possibility of gems during collection in order to limit the number of free gems we're getting. Anything to coerce players into having to spend additional money on the game. C'mon interns... prove me wrong!!

I too have been watching my parade collection. 5 whole gems in one week and all my parade spots are full.

So yes, I truly believe that word made it back to head office and now they have turned off frequent gems for parades. I blame @anya.sparrow . Let's kick hervput of the cool kids club...

I have often thought abouty moles, but must not have been around when you guys busted them. Can you point me to those pages?
