Did you put this chart together yourself?

Yep. As new characters are released, I add to it. As I level them to 10, I remove them to a Completed Characters sheet.

Pretty cool. Gets my organized mind going.

I'm toying with doing the same for concessions, decorations, costumes, etc. But I dunno...

I'm putting together a dashboard for all DMK things. Don't pay attention to the numbers...this isn't complete and is really a proof of concept. The data is coming from tabs further down in the workbook; each "section" is color coded to keep the information (for me, anyway) straight.

Just saw a post on IG. There appears to be some delays with the latest update. They posted that they estimate arrival tomorrow evening. They stated that, even with this delay, there will still be time to update the game and prepare for the start of the Cars Mega Event.

Well that likely explains the random award of happiness this morning. I was wondering what that was for.

iOS update available in the App Store. I immediately had a task with Woody and Bullseye. I thought it said it would be 6 hours, but it turned out to be 6 seconds. Then Merlin pops in and you get the flash of the new Cars Land area and the mention of Dreams. The new Cars Land area is going to be south of the Big Thunder Mountain area, but outside of the railroad track.

Looks like I have enough Dreamsparks (10) to clear the first plot (60 seconds). Appears that you can maybe have up to 30 Dreamsparks at a given time. The next area requires 12 Dreamsparks and with the freaking time wall, I get a message "Sorry, but there are currently no available ways to obtain Dreamsparks". You can't even purchase them for gems or magic.

There will be a new Cars float for the parade.

I saw the chest icon and couldn't find one, so I clicked it and it told me how much time before the next chest arrives. Never seen this before.

Oh this is going to be "fun". The featured characters, besides the Cars ones (as expected), is Silly Symphony. Figment is still featured though. So maybe I am reading more into this since Figment was featured previously and did squat.

There also appears to be other ways to earn gems. You could earn over 1,000 gems by playing other games. Or over 2,000 if you reach a level on a certain game. Some are as simple as checking out podcasts or taking quizzes. These appear to be available anytime. The video ads, for gems, are still there (but currently unavailable until 8pm ET).

The Dreamsparks are available in events, from what I gather. GL has also said not to expect any new land for a while after this...the land process takes years, apparently? I get why they did this: players with millions and millions of magic open all the land instantly and then complain three seconds later they want more land. So they need to throttle it somehow.

Dreamsparks are also a way for them to keep older players without a lot of incentive to do all events to their end a reason to keep engaged. I'm not necessarily down on it at this point. I did unlock the first plot of land this morning.

I'm also regularly checking the token shop to make sure they don't accidently drops Cars relics or tokens like they did for Lilo and Stitch ahead of tomorrow.

So I need $4 million more magic to open land to be able to get to Cars land. 2 years in and I can’t get dreamsparks. This sucks.

I have not welcomed Figment yet, and I do remember to visit the gameshop for the free chests. I suspect not many have welcomed him yet?

I have not. Think I have like 7 ears to go still

I am one key away from leveling him to 4. I also used the Tower Event's currency for Figment chests.

Pre cars check in and stats:

Good luck everyone with Cars. May your tokens drop often.

So, 3 Silly Symphony LCs in the past few days (all free), and get three concessions (and I still need LRRH and BBW). Oh well, better than the three identical decorations from the 3 free Ice Age LCs when they were helpers.

On the upside, in the free chain offer Beauty and the Beast LC that we could open yesterday, I got Lumaire. For you long time players, you likely don't know that Lumaire is now a Legendary level character in LCs. Even though he was the 3rd of 5 characters available (not counting the 2 premium characters) in the actual BatB event back in the day, which should mean that he is a rare level character. But no, they made him legendary a while back, in July of 2024. So, now I have 6 of the 10 possible BatB characters, so that is great. (But only one attraction, so Lumiere enters the ranks of the characters I'm not able to upgrade without spending elixer that i don't have.) Oh well, still better to have than to not have.

Also, since I will not be able to open Cars Land for like a month or so, it is odd to watch Flo drive around my very full park....

Got Little Red Riding Hood in my casual game, so I was happy with that. I have only gotten concessions in my phone game, and I still need the Wolf.
