CalvinTy@calvintyIt’s natural that people don’t admit to buying gems, but I did an experiment for this particular event:
When I got all the stuff during the Rovio error, the gems that I got, I ended up getting the Valentine 2017 Hull SS item when doing the first 20-gem slot.
Then, since I already had some gems in my inventory, the next 20-gem slot, I got the Valentine 2017 Mast SS item. They both were within the first day of the re-started event.
So I was itchy to see if I could get the trifecta.. needing the Valentine 2017 Bow SS item… decided to buy the $29.99 60-gem pack two days ago solely to use them 3 times in the 20-gem slot. It was a bust, really.
Yesterday, I bought the 2nd of 3 $29.99 60-gem pack… also a bust in some senses (got some piggies upgrades though and one SS item that I didn’t have for one of my birds).
Today, I bought the last of 3 $29.99 60-gem pack… another bust. So in 3 days, I charged basically $89.97 on my credit card just in hopes to get the 3rd of the trifecta and I’m letting everyone know that it didn’t prevail for me, drats.
The ironic thing is that I haven’t used any gems during the Valentine 2017 event (other than the ones I bought for the slots) and I’m doing well; currently ranked about 600 with 11K points. It was another goal that I didn’t use any gems to replenish my ship energy. If I ran out of ship energy, I simply waited another hour or so to use them.
So this experiment was both a success and a bust. Anyone else experiencing this as well?

CalvinTy@calvintyYes, I guess my 12 Valentine pigs and 8 Super Valentine pigs I slayed in the past 12 hours was for moot. I guess I’ll take that nice 5 gems from Support (and we still can earn the prizes again, apparently).
Cheers,

CalvinTy@calvintyI haven’t been here in months and yep, I came here when I saw the Valentine 2017 bug, being so confused on why I had 10,400 points or such (I probably already started playing in early 2016).
I continued to play the Valentine 2017 event and it does slowly increase to 10,782 (what I am seeing right now). So I probably have earned 300-400 points so far, but tough to accumulate quickly when you can’t even help anyone else. (Just confirming nobody else can help others during this glitch?)

CalvinTy@calvintyBack to subject at hand, yes, I think I figured out that a programmer made an error regarding Level 1 Super Mecha Pig. They copied the values of the regular (not Rare) Sakura Pig onto Level 1 Super Mecha Pig. So I have been avoiding helping Level 1 Super Mecha Pig for now.
I have gotten Level 4 Super Mecha Pig and can confirm it should be the following:
Pig Level Event Finder MVP Pig_Life Pig_Damage
Super_Mecha 1 200 40 100 10000 2000
Super_Mecha 2 220 45 110 13000 2500
Super_Mecha 3 240 50 120 16000 3000
Super_Mecha 4 260 65 130 19000 3500* CalvinTy
CalvinTy@calvintyIt is rare for me to pay attention to usernames when playing but I just played you as I recognized your username (literally just a minute ago)…
This was the only snapshot I could take below:

CalvinTy@calvintyYes, I helped out with a Super Mecha Pig (first Pig I saw before I even played any Pig in the new event) and saw how it was only 5. Then I played my own Level 1 Super Mecha Pig and it was also only 5. Then I got Level 2 Super Mecha Pig, and suddenly I get 220 and 110 MVP.
Hmm, a bug?

CalvinTy@calvintyI was consistently in top 300-600 probably throughout all 10 days until the last 2 days where I actually played less than more, ha. Hope my final ranking is high 800-low 900, not a surprise change to over 1,000.
At the beginning, I didn’t understand how top 200 leaderboard was quite ahead of me but realized that many must have used a good number of gems. I didn’t even know you could use 1 gem to get instant 3 ship energy until in the middle of that event!
Wonder if that is a big factor? The sales during the event is pretty good… did I see something like 14 gems & 5 ship energy & 5000 coins for only $7.99? I’m sure some have no problems charging that to their credit cards, lol?

CalvinTy@calvinty@GanonTEK, by now, I hope you got some variance back by indeed getting some Sazae Kid pigs? When you mentioned that, I decided to keep a spreadsheet tracking statistics from all levels of the Sazae Family pigs.
For a while, yep, the Kid (boy) was lagging behind significantly for me. I think it is because it is often the “last member” before we get one monster ticket for getting all family members. More recently, it is catching up considerably so I guess that was variance talking, eh?
My file shows now (that I have “found”):
Sazae Papa (Level 22)
Sazae Mama (Level 20)
Sazae Girl (Level 22)
Sazae Kid (Level 20)P.S. To help other fellow ABN members out a bit, in case some hadn’t realized it yet, you don’t have to wait until being the one to “find” the monster — if you need a Girl to complete the Sazae Family, and someone needs help with THEIR Sazae Girl, that counts. (Yes, I sheepishly didn’t realize it for about a day… LOL)

CalvinTy@calvintyI have a similar and not similar situation. First, as I just reported to Ravio Support, once the game thinks I’m “Offline”, I get the ‘misleading’ game result in where my opponent has 80%-95% of my defense amount & that I always have a few more attack points of damage to my opponent. It would display a “win” for me (since I’m apparently *NOT* in sync with the game servers).
Yes, during Arena battles, if the game thinks I’m “Offline”, then it automatically just gives me “10” points and I can’t get any win streak points & tough enemy points. On the other side, I get 10 points even if I was supposed to lose that game (after the server apparently compares the final results?).
During regular battles on the Islands, and getting the dreaded “Offline” message on my side, I see the ‘fake’ results and get the 3 points for the win regardless of final results. However, if the final results show that I got another win (i.e. 2nd straight win), it would show “2 winning streak”. Same thing with when I lose — if I had a winning streak of 4 or so, then it only says “Win” then I likely really lost that game.
In short, the fake game results is what bothers me. I have seen this over 20 games so this needs changing. I wonder what’s the best answer is… for PvP (player vs player), I can see why it’s important that both sides are fully online as Rovio Support stated. I’m more interested in how to change their approach AFTER the game thinks someone is “Offline”. I know that Sabotages evidently is messed up if one player is “no longer in sync” with game server (presumably unintentionally — not addressing any cheating that people are talking about, which I have no clue about as I’m quite new to this forum). I’m curious of what Rovio Support’s next response to this is, if any.
What do you ABF members think or suggest?

CalvinTy@calvintyMy birds are Levels 25-30 with some SS items on all birds (others with S items), so even if I’m new, yeah, I agree I don’t think it’s because of how long you have been playing, @gemmoon4.
I did the 4 slot (20 gems) earlier today, and did get 4 additional golden binoculars (edit: to clarify, after getting the SS and S items), in case anyone is wondering.
* CalvinTy
CalvinTy@calvintyThat’s fascinating, @partshade. Before the Stella & Matilda Arena Cups (or during the Stella one), I remember getting one binocular (does it look red?) and one golden binocular. I guess it’s because I only have played for a month or so?

CalvinTy@calvintyMy first post; only learned of this forum earlier today. I already played the first level of Sazae Family and did get one monster slot ticket (got a Janbia sword, a “S” item), but I didn’t need it. I also have fought 2 Papa & 2 Mama Sazaes as well.
