Chrisp530 GREAT WORK on putting this all together, as always. Let me tell you, as a player, how much we appreciate you putting these guides together for us. They help so much in keeping the right characters free and moving the quests along. One small caveat: You have the descriptions of the Egg Generators slightly backwards. The MK1 creates 75 PINK eggs every 12 hours and the MK2 creates 300 BLUE eggs every 24 hours. THANKS!!! Thank you for the kind words  Ah I meant to edit that. Technically it's not backwards. It should say 75 "common" eggs and 300 "rare" eggs. For me, it's 75 blue and 300 pink, but I'm a blue player, you must be pink. Each player got assigned a different color that would be the primary color, half of us are blue, and half are pink. So confusing, I know. As always Chrisp530, great work. But if we are half blue and pink players, why did EA not ask us for our SEX and then they could have assigned the boys blue eggs and the girls pink eggs? |

Because then Fraggle would have had their ass for associating gender roles with color |

Simple, really. Because then Fraggle would have had their ass for associating gender roles with color Yes. That is my only response. I'm sure I would be forced to write a strongly worded letter that I'm sure would receive a quick and thoughtful response. My timing on this was uncanny. I just logged on for a second because I kind of have no idea what's happening with this update at the moment. I just keep hitting things and hoping it doesn't mess things up for my neighbors. Tomorrow shall be the day I read all the threads pertaining to the update. Who am I kidding, I'll probably read the first and last page and then ask the same questions everyone else has. |

Man, advertising has lied to me all these years. From now on, I only will like black, the absence of color what about you Chrisp530? |

That's so genius that I can't believe EA thought of it. |

Chrisp530, brettolmsted, Fraggle, not that it matters much, but I read somewhere you are assigned a dominant color based on your user ID with EA. Odds are one color and evens are the other

Does anyone know how long this will run for? I have limited internet access so will probably only be able to play once a day. So I'm a wee bit concerned that won't get all the prizes. In the game we can find : EasterTwentyFourteenEndDate - 2014-05-13 8:00 But maybe we should discuss this already at the beginning : Will the event be extended? |

Chrisp530, brettolmsted, Fraggle, not that it matters much, but I read somewhere you are assigned a dominant color based on your user ID with EA. Odds are one color and evens are the other I was kind of wondering if it was done by user ID. But I also wonder if they factor in the dominance of certain letters (like S or A) or if it was just split so evens are one color and odds are the other. I do think it's kind of a cool twist. I'm glad I had a moment to check in this morning. I'm "blue" so I just assumed that was the more common color. |

Just looked the decision is done based on Mayhem ID :
Comments from EA developers :
Even mayhem id, Blue is common. Choosing the Blue box is common box.
Odd mayhem id, Pink is common. Choosing the Blue box is uncommon box.

Why cant all the children have Easter Egg tasks? It is so unfair.  I think this is to be not unfair to lower level players |

Chrisp530 Can you please add the probabilities : On clicking a rabbit you get - 1 egg (70% own Team / 30% other color) - 0,3% probability of blue basket - 0,3% probability of pink basket - after completing questline probability 0,07% of Faberge - Egg

Quick question. How many easter fences do you win from the box? Having to place 50 seems like a lot to progress the questline given that it could take a few boxes before you win them.

You get 3 per win. It's not needed to progress, I forgot to add in a note about that. It's just a side quest for a donut reward. |

I'm not EA but I think that's their motive and I can even understand it. We all have to start somewhere. I remember starting during X-mas and almost didn't get any of the event stuff. Now we're level 39 and we've everything... game cash and a bunch of characters. When you're just starting and only have Homer, Lisa, Cletus it can be a little hard and sure they don't want to frighten new players. |

They should still do things to acknowledge long time players exist. I don't think any characters introduced after Ralph ever have an event related task. Ralph, Homer, and Nelson go after easter eggs. Why not give such a task to all the kids? Why not have the parents have a hide egg task? Look at all the church goers, why isn't there an attend Easter Services task? I've got more than 70 characters at this point. That the same dozen are the only ones to ever get new tasks sucks. And does lower my enthusiasm towards the game. |

Bunnies can visit SP and they can easily dig a hole in the boardwalk-tile. In rivers as well |

Chrisp530For part 3 I had Homer trigger this. Though the dialogue was with Lisa, I had her busy in KL at the time.
