[The Littlest Mermaid]

I got that too. I tried purchasing her, but it said I needed to sign into my Google Account (playing on Android), but it never gave me the option.

Im having that issue as well.

Some guy on my leader board already has 29 gold coins after 1 hour 40 minutes. I fail to see how that is possible unless maybe he knew about the event in advance and had every one of his characters idle waiting for the event to start and had super lucky timing with all of his attractions that give gold coins.

I got 50 gems from each of the past events, but this time I'm almost hoping that getting top 10 isn't really a possibility for me so that I can stay focused on upgrading characters and following the quests. I'll be happy with just the 15 gems for reaching 125 gold coins.

HA! Someone on my leaderboard has 70.

HA! Someone on my leaderboard has 70.

So, I wondered this too, but quickly figured out that people are *probably* using gems to speed up tasks, and collecting tons of coins that way. However, as was posted on a facebook page, why you would want to waste that many gems just in the hope of getting 35 at the end of 3 days, is beyond me. Perhaps they are getting them other ways, but this way is a possibility.

Are you guys that see the gold coins on IOS?

 

[Mickeyluver37]

I had been away from my phone for a few hours, and when I came back and collected, I had 9 coins already. Just lucky with the timing of tasks already started before the event started. I'm only at number 44 on my leaderboard though!

Frustrated with the game and pretty much at a standstill until I get more magic. Parade is worthless. I read about the burger farming while reading through the thread. Now looks worthless if just buying the stands today.

I will not sink money into this game...too many annoying glitches, etc. is it better to use magic to upgrade characters or clear lands? TIA

If you look at the list of character tasks, it shows you what level they need to be. If you look at someone like Pete, he has a new task at each level. While other characters like Celia, I have her at level 6, she doesn't get a new task until she is upgraded to level 10. So I think it is worth trying to keep up with Pete's upgrades, while perhaps another character it's okay to wait because upgrading them won't trigger new quests.

So far, I feel like clearing land hasn't gotten me much. Nothing gets triggered when it's cleared, and I end up having to upgrade a bunch of characters to trigger new quests. But I may be doing things wrong. I feel so far behind other players. I started on Day 1 and I just finished battling Zurg, I still haven't welcomed Eve, and I'm saving up to open the first part of Fantasyland. But I haven't bought any characters or gems, so maybe the people that are into the Tangled section, and have welcomed Minnie have done that.

I'm at the same place you are. Real life gets in the way... it's totally a-okay. I fortunately did have enough to clear the 1st part of Fantasyland but I also haven't welcomed Eve or bought characters/gems. I just play the game and come here to check-in. I try not to get frustrated or else it's no fun and wouldn't be a game worth my time.

I've stopped leveling up characters for now but mine are at:
Mickey 8
Goofy 9
Daisy 5
Pete 2
Jessie 7
Woody 9
Buzz 7
Bo Peep 7
Hamm 6
Sarge 6
Mike 5
Sulley 5
Roz 3
Celia 4

Nearly everyone has the pieces to level up but I'm trying to save my magic. When quests stop, I will level up in the hope that it triggers new quests. In the mean time, Mickey's obsessing over finding Minnie and Mike and Sulley have a bunch of random (LONG) quest lines.

I'm not frustrated, but I do wonder what the heck people are doing different to get so far ahead. I did go to Hawaii for 12 days, which limited how much I could check into the game. I barely made the last Broom gem reward for getting to 375. On the last day, I had to wake up every 3 hours and I made it to 376 on my last collection. Thankfully, my characters were running into a lot of 12 hour quests (maybe the ones your Mike & Sulley are doing now), or putting them on long upgrades, so I felt like I was making progress while on vacation, but I got behind on magic collection. I guess by comparison my characters are pretty good.

Maxed out: Mickey, Goofy, Tink, Woody, Jessie, Sarge (he's upgrading now)
Buzz has items to go to 9
Bo Peep, Hamm, 8
Daisy has items to go to 8
Mike 7
Celia, has items to go to 7
Sulley 6
Roz 4
Pete has items to go to 4

I am.

Yep. I have 21.

My leaderboard has 1 person with 110, #2 is at 36, #3 is at 32 and that's where the clustering starts.

Sorry - I didn't mean to assume you were frustrated.

As for how people get ahead, I think most people on these boards are paying for the additional characters, making it easier to get items to drop and easier to build up magic. For the brooms, I didn't hit the needed 375 (I maybe needed 4 or 5 more collections) and I surely wasn't going to wake up to collect them so I let it go. I guess people just have different priorities

I'm saving my gems for something... I just don't know what yet

I would appreciate any current advice regarding 'burger farms.' Is this still an advisable option?

Thanks for this

Since Daisy doesn't have any gold coin tasks I took this opportunity to upgrade her to level 10 (24 hour upgrade). Sarge is on a super long mission checking out a suspicious package so I can't use him. So far I haven't been able to get myself to send Woody on a 4 hour mission for a gold coin, but I've given in and have started using all the other characters from that list for gold coin missions. Hoping that will be enough to squeak me into the top 10.

I sure hope they let me open up a new section to the park soon. I'm on day 55 so in 5 days I get the Princess Fairytale Hall and I have no place to put it!

I'm loving the gold coins. SOOOOOOO much better than brooms.

My parade won't stop, it has been going for 3 days, any suggestions how to stop it?

Hey all, I'm new to the game. Woke up and had a Pluto pack promotion, which said it would last two days. Closed the app and opened it on the iPad, and the promo has disappeared from both the iPad and the iPhone. No idea why. Has this happened to anyone else and if it has, did the promo come back?

Also, I've noticed that when I open the game on the iPad after playing on my phone, my stats aren't the same as when I closed it (eg missing gems and magic that I had earned). Is there a way to fix this? Thanks
