Noemi PomerleauThe citizens of the Commons are planning to celebrate St. Patrick's Day with green drinks and merriment, but the Leprechauns they hired to help out have run off! Track down the missing Leprechauns and their brethren and then complete their tasks to make this the best St. Patrick's Day the Commons has ever seen! More quests and tasks will unlock over the course of the event as you capture more Leprechauns. This event will run until Sunday, March 17th at noon PDT. Ribbons and trophies will be awarded after the event ends. Happy whacking!
-------- Please post all your comments/questions regarding the St. Patrick's Day event in this thread! |

MTLast Edited March 5th 2013 at 9:24 AM I sent requests to all my game friends (under 50) to help with the leprechaun station. Now I've gone to request energy packs, and no game friends are available.. that's new!
Or is it an error? Help requests used to be separate from energy requests. Update: energy request was available this morning, less than 20 hours. I think last night was a hiccup. |

Bill BeardLast Edited March 5th 2013 at 7:59 PM Noemi? For the "Talk to each of the Leprechauns dressed just like them" do you mean wearing the same hat? Or do we have to match for gloves/no gloves, cape/no cape, etc.?

Rebecca MilesDo we find one Leprechaun each day? Because I'm supposed to be finding my second one, but every one that pops just runs off and doesn't count for that quest.

Santiago MansillaSeems like the drop rate of the leprechauns is low, this will make difficult to help at each station with the items.
Or I have a very very bad luck. |

RaymondRebecca, I'm on my 4'th leprechaun so its not one per day. The tables might be one per day, I just started on the beer one, almost done the gold one, great thet they have programmed a counter in that.

Diana DrummondI keep getting nothings when I whack leprechauns. Is this happening to anyone else? With them being so few and far between, it's bad news...

Rebecca MilesNo, at least they drop a couple coins for me. I'll keep my fingers crossed for a number one then.

Justin Stocks (CNE Dev)When you have only the first station unlocked the Leprechauns will drop gold every time. Once you unlock two stations, they'll have a 50% chance to drop gold AND a 50% chance to drop beer. Once you have three stations, they'll have a 33% chance to drop each turn-in item.
Because each of these chances are independent of each other, it's possible to have a leprechaun drop nothing, but it's also possible to have a leprechaun drop multiple items. In the end it will average out to 1 drop per leprechaun. Here's a table for all the mathies out there: 1 Station Unlocked: (1 Leprechaun captured) 100% 3 Leprechaun Gold ---------------------- (1.0 * 1) = 1 drop per leprechaun 2 Stations Unlocked: (3 Leprechauns captured) 25% Nothing 25% 3 Gold 25% 3 Beer 25% 3 Gold + 3 Beer ---------------------- (.25 * 0) + (.25 * 1) + (.25 * 1) + (.25 * 2) = 1 drop per leprechaun 3 Stations Unlocked: (5 Leprechauns captured) 29.6% Nothing 14.8% 3 Gold 14.8% 3 Beer 14.8% 3 Clovers 7.4% 3 Gold + 3 Beer 7.4% 3 Gold + 3 Clovers 7.4% 3 Beer + 3 Clovers 3.7% 3 Gold + 3 Beer + 3 Clovers ---------------------- (.296 * 0) + (.148 * 1) + (.148 * 1) + (.148 * 1) + (.074* 2) + (.074 * 2) + (.074 * 2) + (.037 * 3) = 1 drop per leprechaun TLDR: yes, you can win nothing from a leprechaun, but you'll win the turn-in items at the same rate overall because you'll also sometimes get 2 or 3 sets of items. - Justin |

Noemi PomerleauYou must match exactly, Bill. Hat and cape, and where applicable, sword, glasses, and gloves. If they aren't wearing gloves/sword/glasses, you can wear whatever you like in those slots.

Jo Helmersthe drops are too far and few between in my opinion. On the 2nd day and got one item bought so far. Would prefer they were in the bushes instead. I'm in the flux area right now. I can see me struggling to finish this at this rate.

DestKittehYou can whack the gold dropping leprechauns in a normal quick whack, by the way, people. At least, I can, so I don't bother watching out for them.
