Just for sh*ts and giggles, I decided to do this! :) There are 15 chili patches here, and I have 2 pumpkin patches bubbled. I'll have 8 PPs when I'm done merging the patches! Wheeee!
I wish I had room to open every PP and see the eggs covering the board! :D Anyone else do things like this?
DELETING POST-IT WAS STUPID
For reasons I can't remember, when it came time to get my oak MP, I opted to get just one. I think I figured the bubbles it put out weren't worth it (they are!) or something. Anyways, I've discovered that that stage 9 oak - Ancient - puts out chests and timber at about the same level as grandpa Whomp! I've been pairing them together for creating wood and they're a good duo.
I may go for more oak MPs, but I'm not sure if it's worth it. I just got the Rocks MP about an hour ago and likely won't go for more.
I believe I am out of luck here. I am going to lose my super rainbow spinner unless somebody can point something out to me. I have spent so many gems, buying an extra 5 moves here and there. I've used several bombs in this one and it's not even a hard level! Maybe my brain is too tired but I am struggling to find anything here and have not been getting my spinners or bombs or very much of anything besides rockets.
I'm going to go rest my brain and hope I can figure this out when I get back. If you have a second and have some thoughts on this, go ahead and share them please. Actually it's even good if you post after I finish this because it helps other people learn as well and I know I've learned from some of the tips you guys have given. ❤️
This is what happens when you get too focused on other things and don't regularly pop the bubbles filled with gold! I even stopped feeding them for a while, but only came back to them being extra hungry! It will take me about 15 minutes to pop, organize and merge all of these, so not too bad really. But the only way to get through all of them is to keep popping organizing and merging.
I've done this a few times and swear I'll not let things get so backed up again, but here I am! Oh well - the abundance is fun! 😄
I just started level 82 and I was thinking about all the different paths I've taken so far to get the different things that I needed. Sometimes I was working on two masterpieces at a time because that's how the spawned items made sense. Sometimes I was laser-focused on a big task (i.e. making wood) and ignored everything else.
Many people say the first thing a new person should do is work towards the oak masterpiece, or maybe someone thinks they should go for the poplar tree MP, or vines MP etc. Everybody has reasons for the focus that they choose.
One thing that became clear to me, probably since level 50 and on, is that even though I don't totally suck at the puzzles, I am not good enough to do much without a good supply of boosters. So many things are linked to puzzles: we get the green tokens to spend on things, we get stars and eggs and money and so much. I realized I would go broke trying to buy enough boosters (yes, get some other ways) so I focused on the tulips and getting the MP for them because they spawn booster shards. So now I have 4 windmills keeping my booster addiction alive and well ;) I have completed MANY Maze Quests now (impossible before), and am enjoying the loot :D
I knew big feather counts were coming up and gold coins can buy wildlife, so I was intrigued by the Zen garden masterpieces, which have a huge supply of gold. I ended up going back a couple of times and now have five Zen MPs - more than enough! The amount of gold they put out is insanely abundant!
Are you on a path right now to get an MP?
I was at a little over 95,000 an hour ago...
I had about 10 to 15 stage 6 stars bubbled up, which I was saving for the egg merge. However I'm having a crappy day and I needed something to cheer me up so I decided to go ahead and crack them all open! Holy cow was that fun! That's why people collect large amounts of things because they're so much fun to merge 😄
While merging all the eggs I went through:
I ended up with two magnificent nests from that. Plus I had two more sitting around and a few eggs. All of that put together and then I tapped open the magnificent nests and it jumped so quickly it blew my mind! I got 5,706 points in less than an hour 🎉 SO MUCH FUN.
I'm on level 81, so am going to ease up on the feather count for now (I'm way ahead) and focus more on wildflowers. :)
But she totally gets me! I'm sitting here all stressed out with no super spinner and only 3 moves left in a Maze Quest game. I look up and there is Daisy making the faces of how I feel :) She is always so cheerful and happy for us when we win a puzzle. What a great gal huh? :D
Do you ever notice her up there, or has she become background from over-exposure?
For the first time ever I decided to focus on making a lot of pumpkin patches while simultaneously working on getting two more mole hill masterpieces (this was after a conversation with a few of you and I can't remember who it was but I appreciate it).
I know that I personally have wondered if anyone's kept track of the haul that you get from each MP. Many people know the pumpkin patches are achieved relatively easily. I decided to track the pumpkin patch haul and this is what I came up with. I forgot to track the increase in my feather count.
I did this all with the Sturdy Tradesman's Trunk, merged to stage 2. Lost track of how many trunks! My mole hills are advancing very nicely and will pair up well with some things I have bubbled from the last time I made the mole hill MPs.
I hope you can read this; the formatting is odd so I could fit it all.
I haven't used tradesman's trunks for a while, ever since I used them to help create my Mole Hill masterpiece. But I keep hearing people talk about how it's one of the easiest ways to add to your wildlife because you can make Pumpkin Patches with them. So I decided to do it again today, creating 3 batches of 15 trunks. I had worked the other day on building up my wood supply so that I had plenty to spend.
I spent 24,750 in wood (45x550) creating those, and it increased my feather count by 28 points.
Because I don't do this much, I was expecting a lot more and felt kind of disappointed about the 28 points. However I do realize that the points move up very slowly so maybe 28 is a good number. For the amount of time that went into making the wood and then spending the wood and doing everything to get the pumpkin patches, it doesn't feel worth it to me right now. I'm looking for some perspective because maybe this really is a good thing and I should keep on doing it.
Thoughts?
I didn't use to pay much attention to stickers until there were problems the last time around and there was a lot of conversation. I just took a peek at my collection now and with 25 days left it seems that things are going well. I don't have anything to gauge it on but considering I have many that are 8 or 9 out of 10 with this much time left, it feels like it would probably be achievable.
For those of you who have done stickers in the past and paid attention to your progress, do you think this is better than previous times?
I just reached level 78 and am reviewing the quests for this level and the next. I have already looked at them but I decided to print everything out so it's easier for me to read and track and make notes on. What I noticed about Level 78 is there are really just three main things: merge, create, and have. Level 79 changes things up a little bit but not much. When you go on to the next stages, it's totally different. Level 80 there's a lot of tapping and using, and 81, there's a lot of opening and tapping and using.
I like that there is such variety in the types of things we need to do. I'm also so grateful for having these lists to look ahead and try to be prepared!!!
All I did was copy the words from Daisy's Quest on the wiki page and pasted them into Excel and did some formatting. I can create PDFs or images of levels you might be interested for you, in so let me know if you want me to do that. I know it's paper and that's old fashioned and some of you like that better than staring at a screen.
For about the last week or two I have been saving nests in my garden in anticipation of the next egg assemble. Yesterday it was driving me nuts because it was taking up so much room. I probably had at least twenty nests, some of them partial.
I didn't actually sleep last night so when 3 a.m. rolled around and the new day (in MG world) started, I was very excited to see the egg assemble! I got busy emptying my nests and merging things. after that I had finished about seven and a half of the items on the list. Because I have five Zen masterpieces, I have an abundance of gold. I went through a lot of gold coins just buying eggs over and over again until I finished! Now my bank is empty but I finished this before a lot of you even got out of bed lol! That is, depending on where you live of course. :D
Look what I have!!!!! 😄 Stage 15 wildflowers. Wow what a beautiful piece. Too bad I'll be bubbling them soon to make room for new things but I'll leave them out a bit.
I have been having a pretty lousy day with puzzles after I lost my super rainbow spinner yesterday. This sure gave me a boost! On paper it seems like I'm almost to stage 17 but I've heard from everyone's experience that "almost there" is going to take a long time!
So happy for little wins like this 😄
I am convinced that the fireflies for the Zen MP are part rabbit and part teenage boy! They multiply like crazy and you feed them and feed them and they are always hungry! 😄
Under all of those bubbles are five Zen MPs, which make me very happy. I am amused and surprised at the fireflies. I didn't have any experience before this with fireflies because I didn't care for the mossy log chain. It seems the more you feed them, the more frequently they want to be fed. If you have been around teenage boys or if you were ever a teenage boy, you know that this all sounds familiar! And they multiply like rabbits do! Which is all great because they bring me gold 😄
If this dock wasn't broken, I'd be singing,
"I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Waiting for seeds to float on by
I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time"
I am sooooo ready to be done with this level and take a break, but instead I'm sitting here waiting for seeds to float by so I can shoot them down!! :D This song came to mind so now I'm listening to it while I wait...........
I just recently began playing the maze quest puzzles because I have a super rainbow spinner. I'm doing well and am now beginning to collect garden guardian statues. I'm not very familiar with them so of course I went to the wiki page. I know some things out there are outdated and this one doesn't look real complete so I wanted to see if those of you who have used these, does this look accurate?
By tap loot I'm assuming once you get the masterpiece it will occasionally light up or now have a message that there's something to tap. Is that what they mean? TIA :D
This post is mainly for people who are not experts at puzzles already. It's just a little tip that I thought I'd share because I've played over a thousand games but it wasn't until a few days ago that I noticed this situation (no, I'm not blind lol!). Then I realized I should be keeping a closer eye out for this because it's a great opportunity! I have been watching to see when these situations present themselves, assuming that I have the little hand booster in the puzzle to work with or a hammer.
You can see in the first picture I noticed that if I lifted up that green and put the blue down, swap those two, then you'll see in the second picture I had a beautiful opportunity to make a spinner two different ways 😄 I'm getting better at spotting these and I've noticed several times. If you aren't already keeping an eye out for this, do so because getting a rainbow spinner or a super rainbow spinner is freaking awesome! 😂 😄
How many times have I heard it said to remember to check Daisies Quests regularly? The answer is about 1,500,000. Okay not that many but between reminders out here and knowing myself how important it is, do you think I remembered to look ahead to my next level??? No...Grrrr...
I just sold a fruit tree chest that I earned in the maze quest. I did that because I'm not working on fruit trees and had no reason to keep it. I am still on level 72 and wrapping things up, completely forgot to look ahead. That chest sure would have been handy for this part of level 73! Not a big deal, they are easy to make. Just a silly waste of time ;p
This is your reminder: look ahead a few levels from where you are so you don't accidentally do things that you should have saved until later or delete things you should not have. :(
Here is a link in case you need it.
Urgent help needed! It's about 6:30 Central Time in the US. I have just paid the 25 gems to get 5 extra moves on this. I have been stuck trying to remove the right two columns for the last six moves. I cannot seem to get a bomb or a rocket or anything to save my life!
Without getting any boosters, do you see a logical way to do this? I will use my hand booster to move something if I can create a horizontal rocket or bomb or something to help here.
EDIT TO ADD: what a clusterF this was! I ended up spending 100 gems for 3 bombs, then needed 30 more gems to get extra plays. I never used to do this! UGH. I'm out now, and retrieving more boosters...
