  3. Why is brain damaged horse so under utilized in this game. I can’t remember one time he was useful, even though they have done a better job at making Consuela, Jake, Rupert, and Buzz useful. I have a dark horse (no pun intended) theory that the reindeer for santa will be a skin for BDH and they will put him on sale that day (like they did with Consuela during Haloween), but I am probably being too hopeful.

  11. I’ve tried pretty hard to get Jesus, keeping Lois, Mort and John busy almost around the clock. I’m quite exhausted now. And basically, I’m fed up with these needless limited-time unlockings like we have with Babs once again, especially in combination with this convoluted and radomized way to collect the unlocking stuff. I’m not even going to really put efforts into getting both Babs and Brian’s puppy costume.

I finally unlocked Jesus on Friday morning, only need 1 more present from the Fancy Gift Box (holding off just incase there’s a quest to open one), got 10 Wrapping Paper so 33 more and I can get Puppy Bryan and the last Gift Box. I already have all the items needed for Babs so as soon as I get the questline to find her I can get her straight away, and only need 2 more Snow Shovels for Jingle Joe, so all in all it’s been a great weekend.

  41. I’ve come to accept there is no way for me to get Jesus with just under 10 days left. The only way to get him is if you’re a premium player. I’m currently at 13 Snowflakes with just Lois and Mort working over the Yeti. My cookies haven’t gone beyond 7,000 because I have to use what I get to wrap presents. I still have to get Jolly Joe and Puppy Brian, so that’s 2,000 cookies gone from reaching 15,000.

    The simple fact is this was a 5-6 week event crammed into 4 weeks. It started too slow the first week and week two was like week three with week two unlockables forcing players to buy McClane to accomplish defeating the Yeti to get enough Snowflakes for Jesus. We should have got both Mort and Joe last week to keep it balanced.

    TinyCo has straight out made this a premium player favorable event. You have to use Clams to make even the simpler collecting tasks possible. I know they have to make money, but making a task nigh impossible for freeimum players isn’t the way to go about it.

    • Once you have Joe, it will make the Yeti easier. That is where most the supplies come from. Give them feedback on your experience.

      • After I get Joe and Puppy Brian I’ll be down to 2,000 cookies. This means I’ll need roughly 1,500+ cookies a day to get 15,000.

        Then there’s the math for Yeti. With just Lois, Joe and Mort if I only get up to defeating Childish Yeti it’ll make 68 Snowflakes with the 4 hour wait between levels and 24 hours for Top Hat plus 4 more hours to reset back to Viking.

        The only way I can get Jesus is if I can convert Candy Canes to Snowflakes one for one. Then with the 200+ I have left do 1 Candy Cane for 800 cookies, which is never going to happen.

        What TinyCo should have done was use the total cookies collected number to get Jesus and not the current amount. They could have put that number up to 25,000 to get Jesus, which is very doable.

    • I don’t know if TinyCo made this event strictly for premium players, but I do understand your frustration. I have gotten nowhere near to getting Jesus and even puppy Brian for that matter. The holiday shoppers rarely ever drop the stockings I need which makes everything even more difficult. There are 9 days left for the event and I’m positive I will not earn everything the game offers.

    Praise to Tiny Co.: I was upset this morning after I tried to open a free gift from a friend, but instead opened a “gold gift box” that has appeared in the same area after the latest update. I was (too) quick to tap “open” and disappointed to discover I had just wasted 50 clams on a boxful of Christmas cookies. Curses! So I sent a polite message to Tiny Co, letting them know that I was disappointed. Before the day was over, they had responded with a refund of my clams, and a nice note reminding me of the cost of these premium boxes. I replied with thanks, but I also wanted to pass this incident onto others- first, that there are premium gift boxes next to where you receive the free ones. Second, Tiny Co. DOES CARE. They are sooooo much better than EA. I am really glad to have played FG:TQFS from day one, and I will not hesitate to spend my money on clams in the future (I spend about $10 per month.)
    Thank you, Tiny Co. And thanks to FG Addicts for giving us this forum to share and learn about our fave game (although I wonder if some of your readers actually read the blog- sometimes it seems like all they do is come the comments to complain, without checking the blog FIRST to clear up their misunderstandings.) Anyway, Thanks to all!!

    • I have had issues with my purchases before. Like bought $10 clams. Then lost service or something and had it not load. When I went back in I tried again and it didn’t work again. Later checked and saw that I got charged the $20, and had finally received 275 clams. But not the 2nd group of clams. Told TinyCo that I didn’t mind about the money as I got my clams. And that if I had wanted to spend $20, I would have gotten the extra 50 clam difference. Next day, they put 600 clams in my game! They go the extra mile to keep us happy. And for that I keep playing and spend about $10 a month too.
