Topic: [34572] Forum Long Term Event - 1st round, Question 4
[-34572] Latten (DE1) [None] :: Sept. 26, 2013, 12:25 p.m.
Soo, after the relaxing question from yesterday, here's the new one! We'll leave the old thread open for a bit, since (due to my messups) we had to open it a bit later.

Alright, are you ready? Here's the question:

How many cabbage do I get when I have a level 4 field and use Special seeds from the Nursery, use Premium humus, employ Benny Buddler as staff and using a level 2 watertower on top of that?

Remember to answer by using the poll above!

Have fun!

my math says one thing, but my field says something else lol....

My God.... this is like asking someone that if their canoe was stuck in a tree with no headlights.. how many pancakes would it take to get to the moon :D:D

I am going to have to trust the math - as a very conservative gold buyer I have never employed a staff member so I have to trust what the instructions tell me because I am unable to actually create the scenario.

special cabbage + premium humus + benny builder + lvl 2 water tower = :?:

Is this another part of your evil plan?:evil:

I was going to trust my math skills, but now you've got me doubting... :(

If you calculate the correct thing, you should absolutely be able to trust your math skills :D

Cool. That means I can blame you if my answer's wrong ;)

WOW!!! What a question. :p
[725854] jaystarr2 [None] :: Sept. 26, 2013, 1:30 p.m.
I told you, it's 2 + 2 = potato.
[725862] Sue8 (US1) [None] :: Sept. 26, 2013, 1:39 p.m.
but shouldnt you go with what the field is telling you? The question did not state that it was math... it asked what the field would yield? I had a co-op member plant just to make sure

We checked multiple times, both end results are the same :) No hidden agenda here, both methods should lead you to the correct answer (if you do them correctly, of course).

It is offtopic but i have to say I like 2+2=potato. I norwegian we said 2+2=5. :)

It is another trick question, unless you actually follow the steps and employ benny budlder you can not know if the % bonus is added together and applied once to the base field yield or if all bonuses are treated individually and applied sequentially.

Both senarios are catered for in the answers above so you are not able to work it out via process elimination.

I am so confused.....
[725917] Latten (DE1) [None] :: Sept. 26, 2013, 2:11 p.m.
It's way easier than you might think it is :D
[725919] RaquelCesar (GB1) [GB1] :: Sept. 26, 2013, 2:11 p.m.
Since I never hired staff and can't find the information anywhere in the game or the forum, I must ask:

Do the production bonuses accumulate or are they all computed relative to the base production?
