Hi, Nick. I wanted you to know that I just put in a ticket which is rather urgent. I'd appreciate your looking into it as soon as you are able. I cannot start the Easter Egg Hunt until the issue is resolved. Thanks!

You should be good to go now, IamGroot! Sorry about that.

I can't believe on how hard you made this "once" enjoyable Easter Event into this!!!! Good thing I canceled my contest, because noway would get enough tokens for 3 gift baskets since I haven't gotten enough tokens for 1 gift basket and I just "finally" finished the Egg Hunt. Which that was so wrong to have changed locations when you had made this a 5 day event. Thanks to all the hardwork of "players" is the ONLY way it could've been completed. Once again, something that was fun to do has been turned into this.... bye

Sorry to hear you're not happy with the difficulty of the Mini Easter event, WhackedCrafter. I was hoping shuffling the egg locations would freshen up the egg hunt! And while we do largely intend for you all to work together in finding all the egg locations, I should have considered increasing the mini-event duration to match.

The prices of the bags, satchel, and gifts are the same as they are in the main Easter event, and the tokens-per-turn-in and turn-in drop rate are the same as in main Easter as well. There's no achievement associated with buying items in the store, so I didn't think there would be an issue. I certainly didn't mean to make it frustrating!

I'll take this into consideration for the next Mini Easter. Thank you for sharing your feedback.

I'm assuming that whatever bonus you have at time of purchase is permanent.

This is correct!

The egg art was superior! I loved how the one walked backwards. :P

Which one walks backwards?! (that's my fault :S )

The Evil Egg companion. (Pink with legs). He walks in other directions as well.

Thanks for fixing my weird glitch so promptly!

Hi Nick,
I thought of some things I would be willing to pay for and thought.. hey, maybe I am not the only one.
1 - VIP vouchers
2 - special drinks (250% energy)... these I really can´t figure out why they are not sold at Bushbucks coffee stand... or on AMICUS at the diner there. Coffee, sandwiches and all sorts of food (energy) could be made available at stores. I would love to pay for those but not in 10-20-30 dollar combos. Just one coffee anda a sandwich to go please... charge micro-purchase money.
3 - Complete outfits. I thought about having a way of clicking on an NPC and being able to buy their outfit, also as in-game micro-purchase.
4 - "storage": I would love to have lockers or boxes where I could just put things into them and "label" them. Like the Tardis but in a way I can put all gardening crap in one box, all christmas decorations in another box... things like that. Boxes could be sold like mannequins or garden plots.
5 - VIP monthly purchase: I know there is already one... but I rarely buy it because it is decoupled from other offers. Sometimes there is something cool like chocolates or bushbucks... but then I think... I could spend the money on VIP... but then VIP does not include energy items or bushbucks... so I end up stalled ...
Just including some bb or energy or other items, however tiny the amount, into the VIP purchase would make a huge difference in tipping the odds in favor of me purchasing the VIP powers.
Thanks :)

1) Noted!
2) Buying Costume/Special energy drinks from the AI bar or coffee shops has been mentioned before! It's a great thematic idea for sure, and is already on my list to consider.
3) Buying an NPCs outfit is a neat idea! Might be fairly involved, tech-wise, but I'll note it down regardless.
4) Ranch Item sorting/storage has been suggested before! I was imaging a more abstract version, with tabs in the Ranch Inventory, but having actual storage items could be neat.
5) Thank you for the insights here. I'll consider putting together a VIP Bundle or something.

Okay folks, this is all I have time for, thus concluding this week's forum Q&A! Thank you for the questions, feedback, and discussion! I hope those quietly reading this afterwards find it informative.

Tune in to the Bush Whacker Weekly stream tomorrow at 3:30 PM Pacific! Hope to see you then :D

I'll be hosting the first ever Ranch Tour on the stream! Come along as we walk through the esteemed ranches of your fellow players. Hope to see you there!
