New Year’s Dinner Quest and Confetti Cannon Collection Mission

 



A new 11 day Quest has been released in tandem with a Collection Mission.   The reward for the Collection Mission is a Collectable.  Once the Mission expires, you will find the Collectable in the Market but will be forced to pay RC to buy it.  I therefore always advise players to try to complete the Collection Mission even if they cannot complete the Quest.  The game has become more demanding, however, and recently requires one of the newer premium machines for the Collection Mission.  In this case, it is the Donut Maker.  If you wish to move forward in the game, you will need all of the premium Animals and Machines.  That is the new reality.  Once the Quest expires, it should become available from the Lighthouse as soon as a new timed Quest is released.  In other words, you now can access the last Quest, Christmas Dream, from the Lighthouse.  The Quest are divided into four parts, however, and you will be given credit only for the full quarters you completed prior to expiration.  (A friend had completed all tasks apart from the last task of cooking the Stove House dishes.  The Quest expired two minutes prior to her collection of the dishes. She was not given credit for that task, and therefore did not complete the Quest.  If she accesses it now from the Lighthouse, she will have to repeat tasks 13 through 16 if she wishes to complete the Quest now for the Decoration.)

Message from Freyashawk: Votes for HM. Freyashawk are much appreciated if you use this site.  I know I am not doing as much as I once did, but the site is the result of eight years of work, and much of it still is helpful.  I do try to update with all timed quests still.  Being in the top 10 makes a big difference to morale, and I am truly appreciative of every vote sent to my farm in the Beauty Contests.

Farm Beauty Contest Strategies:

You need to maximise the votes of the four characters on your farm instead of relying on neighbour votes, especially now.  The game has become more demanding.  A variety of Crops, Animals, Machines, Trees on your farm, four Pets fully oufitted with two pieces of apparel and one piece of equipment, landscape points, farm level, and theme items will give you maximum votes from the four characters each day.  Most players have difficulty with theme points.  Go to the Trophy icon, and tap on the Red Book to see all Theme items.  Tap on each item, then hit the magnifying glass to see if you own it and where it is situated.  Only items that are on your farm and not in storage will be counted, and duplicates do not count.  The new base if completed counts for 9 votes daily, so if you are low on theme, pay RC to complete it now.  These ‘free’ games all exact a price if you are invested in receiving all possible rewards.  That alone will give you more votes than the maximum of 6 you can receive from any neighbour.  Unfortunately, all the theme items that give you multiple votes are premium items.

They are including the final reward decoration from the last quest as a theme item, so if you have that, it will give you 3 character votes per day.  Other theme decorations can be found on the aLucky Wherl now.  They include the Hannukah Gelt Tree, final reward for another recent timed Quest.  You can purchase that for 12 RC in the Wheel or Share Box.  The Piggy Cabinet was a Calendar Reward and is another theme item found now in the Lucky Wheel or Share Box for 10 RC.

Note that they have added more tasks now for Darryl’s Adventure.  I will add them to the post dedicated to this activity when time and resources permit.  Here is a link:
