So in short words. Thank you fools for working hard and donating the apples,corn and eggs for nothing.
When you read between the lines at GGS they don,t care anymore for the players.Well in my own words i don,t care or give a brown thing for it at GGS.
I am just starting to get angry. Do you NUMBNUTS at GGS that only children play this game?? And there are people who take every explanation for grantage from GGS. But the way of explaining from GGS is using a lot of words and doing AND saying nothing.
A smart dog niver will bite in thand wich feed him,remember that GGS.
Or do we get a political awnser when it is to late by saying,Wir haben das nicht gewusst. In english,We did not now that???
Hiding away behind lies and still thinking we accept that kind of non-sencens.
I think now it is time to let them know at GGS what is the power of a big group of angry players. But there will be some brown-noses wich complain now and spend all their belonging to get that new improved prizes at the C-C.
I have 1 question to GGS. Can you remove that Deco tower from my farm because i don,t need it anymore. Or is that to hard for those NUMBNUTS to achive???

Alright guys, criticism is fine, and even if it's not directed at me, I'll happily take it and - if necessary - pass it on to the appropriate channels.
But, and here's a big "BUT" if you continue to actually insult GGS Staff, our mods or me, I will check if my banhammer is still around and bob some heads with it.
So please, stay productive and polite, because you'd expect that from the board team as well. Thank you.
@CM Latten can I suggest that the problem was
not that the event was only 3 days but that we didn't know this until
after we had chosen a level to do it at. The events difficulty is
entirely dependant on how long you have to do it.
If the devs plan is to have fewer people playing the events then this is a good tactic. Several players in our co-op chose level 4, as usual, found they only had 3 days and simply stopped playing the event !.
..... for working hard and donating the apples,corn and eggs for nothing......
I am not playing the event anymore. I m in donating corn and eggs task. I have lots of use with both than donating on a stupid event which I know I will not finish.But I happened to waste my apples on a blind belief that the event timer will be fixed.
Spending gold on stupid things is really stupid.
I am not going to buy any gold again. Even for 250%rps, 200% primetime. And I have gone bankrupt. I have spend all my money on this stupid game.
Now that I am not spending money. I wont bother you against some stupidity you do.
I am going to be happy like its all perfect, until I spend my real money on you - an unworthy organization, that doesnt give any respect to its customers.

What about the productivity and politeness they are supposed to show us? This should be a two-way relationship, not just us being polite and spending money.. while they can go ahead and do whatever they see fit with it, without giving any sort of explanation or apology, not to mention warning.

I guess you could say that, or even do that.
But how do you expect us to react when something u guys do backfired on us? We are your customers. Give respect to people who spend on you. We are putting all our savings on you, on this unworthy game. Do you know how much I have spend on you? Do you think I cant raise my voice against some stupidity u guys do?
Y cant u fix this? Just extending the timer is not going to be a big task. Really, is it? Or is that u guys are really focussed on extracting every single dime of our savings..??
Come on with that hammer.
So any critisme is not allowed??????????
We have to shut up???
In wich time are we living
And i am still polite but the players including me are sad and angry to send out in the darkness with a hand of fried air. Give then on this event a rollback,or is that to difficult.
Putting more in the game with out being tested is never good. In the past we had a rollback. And don,t keep on repeating the same words. EXTEND this event or do you think the people are waiting for 1 day of before that C-C starts again. The most players are playing to complete the events and to be beaten everytime by gold throwing Coops. I don,t mind it is their money they spend,but give the normal players time to complete the event in the given time and don,t shortcut it with 50% or more. Is that to difficult top understand. And extending a timer can be done on a update and won,t even take 5 minutes. Is my explanation polite enough now??
I am very positive but the awnsers we are getting making me thinking very negative. I wonder how that is possible??
And the hammer has arrived. A minor warning.
Thank you for the democratic way of thinking and acting.
BTW when i get banned put it in a news falash but tell the other players why i have been banned.
I don,t care i am verry sad about the way goes on this moment.

Completely agree on this, believe me: We're (and by that I mean the mod team and me) are also super annoyed that we didn't get proper information about this before it already started, and over the fact that it happened on a weekend, too. I did talk to people about it and will continue to do so, because that's absolutely not okay.
Due to this, among other things, the dev team will think about a way to put a timer preview directly in the event opening window, which for example would be a great way to avoid this in the future.
Please don't think that I won't or don't want to listen to complaints or criticism, quite the contrary. I'm looking forward to any and all ideas you guys might have that might help us avoiding things like this as well, and I forward pretty much all criticism I get in the forums - and, usually, a lot of good things happen because of it, eventually.
I just don't want every critical thread to be transformed into some kind of insult-slinging show of nonsense, which would help neither us nor you or anyone else, and I'm sure you agree on this, too.
But again, you're completely right on this, no disagreement here.
I guess you could say that, or even do that.

I absolutely can understand how annoying it is if something like this happens without any information beforehand, and I'm terribly sorry for that. And everyone, regardless of spent gold or money, has the right to speak out for or against things that happen in the game, that's exactly what this community is for, at least for a huge part.
The problem starts when you stop criticising and start insulting people involved on a personal basis.
Basically:
"I hate how this happened and you should do something about it" - fine
"I hate how this happened and everyone at GGS is a stupid idiot" - not fine
@Boer: The warning wasn't for your second post, but the first one. You know, the one that was literally insulting.
Hey everyone!
It seems we got ourselves some amazing deals today! Prepare for spectacular offers and sales the whole day! Missing some Halloween decos still? We got you covered for a last chance! Needing some books for the library? Find one new selection of the favorite books of 2016 every 30 minutes! Sales, sales, deals, deals, the entire day!
Have fun!
(Oh, and tomorrow we will have a calm, nice day with no events, so everyone can prepare for the Coop Championships
)
AND THIS IS WHAT I JUST SAW!!
So means - "(Oh, and tomorrow we will have a calm, nice day with no events," - no duration of the event????!!!!!!!! Tessa's event!!! Thank you GGS............YOU ARE DISSAPOINTMENT AS BIG AS A TORNADO COMEING BY AND LEAVING NOTHING BEHIND!! :P !!
you can put your amazingdeals where the sun don' t shine! and we didn't want 'a nice calm day' we wanted a normal 6 day event. you are all ostriches with your heads stuck in the sand.
Mr Latten with all respect but my defenition of Numbnut is not an idiot. It is a person or more persons wich make mistakes like we all do. But it is a person ore more persons wich make mistakes and refuse to correct that mistake.
We are living in the digital age. A bank can click 1 button and hold or get back a payment when there has been a mistake or error. So it must be possible also with that timer.Or is the develpment team still working with windows 2000 or older?
And the lack of information about this error/mistake.

The problem is that this underhanded way of "testing" things has become so much the norm that your customers don't have any goodwill or faith left that you are actually treating us with respect. As I said, retaining repeat customers requires your customers to trust you and enjoy the way we're treated enough to hopefully recommend the gaming experience to other people.
When all we feel is scammed time after time because these "bugs" are clearly not bugs, but intentional ways to try to trick people who don't know better into clicking on spending gold by accident through giant pop-up windows centered over harvest areas, buying reputation points at the last minute in a supposedly team-oriented "challenge", it destroys the whole purpose of the original gameplay, which was fun in good faith.
Sorry only goes so far. At some point it must be acknowledged that something is clearly not working at all on either the development expectation front or customer communications, and likely both, as support is one of the most unresponsive of any gaming company I've ever supported with cash.
If you actually expect people to continue spending cash on this game, milking people and tricking them into spending unnecessary gold because they didn't know better, mis-clicked, or bought books because you advertised a release as one thing and changed them the next day, is not going to cut it. At some point your customers will correctly realize they are being taken for fools and cut you off.
When you continue to act this way and disregard increasing customer complaints, all we can conclude, likely correctly, is the company is in dire straits and needs to resort to grabbing as much cash as possible before it shuts down, which makes it even less likely we'd want to pour any more money into a sinking ship.
Honestly, this is just business and marketing 101, not to mention basic common sense. So many of us should not have to repeatedly spell it out. I don't even know why I wasted the time to actually tell you these things, as it will likely be ignored again.
"I hate how this happened and you should do something about it" - fine
"I hate how this happened and everyone at GGS is a stupid idiot" - not fine
I hate that the time to complete everything has been cut in half. --Fine or not fine?
I hate the fact that the whole purpose of chopping the time in half is so that we can't possibly complete the event for the bigger prize without using gold. It used to be that if you worked hard enough and were at a certain high enough level, you COULD attain the bigger reward. Guess that's the whole point, hmm? Make sure the only way that we can get the highest reward is by buying it. Really sad--I finally am at a level after 2 years on here where I could have actually achieved the bigger reward, and now I realize that they've purposely made it impossible to do without using gold. I will never participate in a weekend event again if this is how it's going to be permanently. And Gold Game Studios could care less. Just sad.

After almost 3 days of loosing my head about the game you
Lorraine25 (GB1) have made me SMILE !!! Thank you!!
!!! hahahahahahahahaha
But, and here's a big "BUT" if you continue to actually insult GGS Staff, our mods or me, I will check if my ban hammer is still around and bob some heads with it.
Hey Latten, I feel the communications are also done one way ie you are efficient in communicating our views and emotions to GGS staff
@100% efficiency
BUT WE DONT RECEIVE the info/changes/experiments decided by GGS staff. SO, first make it a 2-way channel for communication, then you yourself can see the politeness you are expecting from us.
and IF the GGS staffs are so annoyed by our comments and criticism and are telling moderators to shut us up, then I have something better idea for them. Anyways MAJORITY will not play during this CC, why not completely ban the game itself.(Big Farm is not the only game for Virtual Farming, right?)
The short event is not a bug, it may be poorly planned, and it may be annoying for a ton of players, but it's not an accident - The devs always want to test new things, and this is one of those things. There won't be a "fix" for the event, guys, I'm sorry.
Well, its clear now that this "test" has FAILED MISERABLY, so cant the timer be back to normal so that the efforts & $$ & gold spent in completing the tasks is NOT A COMPLETE LOSS.
Everything is gold gold gold.
This small charm used to b available for 3 karma points. now its 5 karma points.
Now what? buy karma points also with gold?
Well, during the Halloween Trick or Treat, the prices are always 5 Karma points instead of 3. I had raised similar issue last time during December month. So, better not to buy using karma points.
Regarding this flash sale and super sale n*n-s*ns*....this is all just planned to make CC more worse. With the spooky ghosts and all & the boosts from 30% library books will make the gold players use gold (like normally they spend).......but this will encourage some other players to spend the gold because those who have will use it on other players during mission to end up at 1st position. This will start the virtual war between players because CC is not fun or co-op event but a EGO competition, now-a-days.
Between this EGO FIGHT, GGS will be at complete profit ***.
RP's will be sold as usual. All and all its a shortcut for reaching a Deadend faster for GGS.
***This short story will remind us something
http://www.kuttees.in/2012/07/monkey-and-two-cats-moral-story.html(do take out 2 mins to read, please)
&
Before banning me
please do send me a message, atleast this can be done, right?
Just to be clear, the event and the "Winter Sale" of today are completely different things
And, to be clear again, since my previous comment apparently led to more confusion: The short event is
not a bug, it may be poorly planned, and it may be annoying for a ton of players, but it's not an accident - The devs always want to test new things, and this is one of those things. There won't be a "fix" for the event, guys, I'm sorry.
I suggest if the devs want to test new things, then they should actually play the game and know what is totally IMPOSSIBLE to achieve in 3 days.
It's about time there was a test server with a group of players to test new features before they are released to the masses.

@CM Latten I dont know about other servers but in IN1, CC is an ego competition. We play very hard and dedicated to get to the highest rps count.Its really a big competition for us. So better try not to spoil all the fun and our hard work by introducing "
RPS Buying Prime time" offer like u did in the last cc.
@Mira (US1) BRILLIANT post!!! You summed things up perfectly & wrote it all way better than I could have done, I really hope that gets forwarded on.
There won't be a "fix" for the event, guys, I'm sorry.
This is perfectly okay. You do not extend the time back to normal and I do not use gold to complete the event. Deco would have been scrapped in any case
At least some of the smaller rewards are useful.
