View Full Version : Every Last Balloon Counts

We are nearing the end of the 20th Anniversary Event. It has been a long event and everyone has made and donated a lot of balloons. Our server groups have done well to get to good positions on the leaderboard, in spite of obstacles along the way. As we get into the final hours, every last balloon counts.

I'm sure all of what I'm posting has already been considered by many if not most people, but here goes anyway:


Every player can help with the event, regardless of level.

- Do a click adventure. It will take a minute and will give you 100 balloons.

- Build a well and upgrade it to level 5. This costs: 10 pwp, 15 stone, 500 tools. Contains: 1k water. Depletes in 10h - 13h. Provides 250 balloons when converted in the Provision House.

- Convert 2k water to 500 balloons in your Provision House. This will take:

Level 1: 41 min 40 sec
Level 2: 20 min 50 sec
Level 3: 14 min 10 sec
Level 4: 10 min 25 sec
Level 5: 8 min 20 sec

- Put some water in the Trade Office at a reasonable price.

- Buff another player's resource buildings, preferably whilst they are online so that they can use and convert the extra resources.

- Chuck every last balloon in the Donate Box.

- Make sure your Provision House queue finishes before the end of the Event, leaving you enough time to donate the balloons....

- Do some normal game activities, especially upgrades. These do provide some balloons.

- Stay positive, ignore the nay-sayers and have fun.


Sorry to harp on a bit, and apologies if it's all old news, but at least posting this has motivated me to make even more effort for the race to the finish.

Just one question then: Do you really think the rewards are worth it?

I shall give such a question the answer it deserves.

There is no reward for the individual donations. BB forgot to put them into the competition.

Please include a reminder as to when exactly does the competition end, so that we can time the queues accordingly.

i suspect tomorrow :P

i tried to find exact dates in various event posts but couldnt find it nor did i fancy ready through all posts

We are at voucher code 20 to be found still and that hasnt been found yet today- so 20 voucher codes might all be handed out today suggesting last day of event- which happens to coincide with normal server maintenance day for german servers

On the other hand the original voucher code message speaks about getting up to 20 voucher codes till the 24th - so it might end then and the last 4 days of events we get 1 voucher code and lots of complaining people :P

I presume that BB will post somewhere today if it ends today to announce maintenance at midnight etc and my money is still on today for last day of event

I'm not talking about the rather trite rewards BB dreamed up, but the feeling we get from having tried right up to the end of the event. :D
