That wiki's useless for all but new players learning the very basics of the game imo. Was a complete waste of time creating a wiki that they didn't intend to update in a timely fashion. Use the fan created wiki http://forgeofempires.wikia.com/wiki/Forge_of_Empires_Wiki. Unofficial but updated regularly and much more useful.P.S.
I had mentioned this before but en.wiki.forgeofempires STILL has no info on cherry event buildings!
For any refferences use google translate and german version of forge wiki.
INNO your own words say """you can access all the features of the game and play as long as you want for free""" ALL the FEATURES of the game obviously does not apply to the main prize of the Spring Event?
As a result the main prize has been withheld, obviously; but I simply did not get access to this feature of the game for free, as you advertise.
INNO you obviously did not think this through. You effectively made completing the main quest line as quickly as possible, a NON-EVENT. Your Spring Event was a NON-EVENT!!!!! PATHETIC!!!!
This is because quick completion OR FULL COMPLETION gave no advantage in getting the full Cherry Set. In so doing, you have falsely advertised that we will have access to ALL features of the game.
You are just deliberately misinterpreting the dynamic of a freemium game in order to bemoan your bad luck. Have you seriously never played one before? It is free to play the game, including the events and in doing so, you have a chance to win special prizes. Not all prizes are guaranteed.

I am well aware of the site, problem is that`s a fan site of FoE not official one, and mods hate when someone refers to it. A ridiculous situation, when you can`t provide public help because it`s not a trusted link (from FoE view) but can`t give any FoE link ether.That wiki's useless for all but new players learning the very basics of the game imo.

Very ridiculous situation indeed but until such time as the official wiki is updated in a useful timeframe and not weeks after, they don't leave us with much of an option. No, you probably can't post links to it in global as with any external unverified site, but it could still prove useful in private communication or for your own information; of course, you should always remind folks that it's unofficial as a disclaimer.I am well aware of the site, problem is that`s a fan site of FoE not official one, and mods hate when someone refers to it.

Yeah, it's a shame that it's not a site optimised for mobile use; with an ad-blocker on PC browser, it's tolerable enough to use but not much good for app users etc. Google is a good option too! Better than the useless official wiki anywho.I stopped using that site. It is good for information but also has the occasional pop up advert that takes over my phone browser and won't let me shut it down. Shame as for information it's great but I Google any questions I have now and avoid wikia links in the results.

I have not spent a single diamond on the event and have much enjoyed the variety of quests, the random cherry trees appearing in the city and the event overall.
Luck plays a large part in opening the chests - i have almost entirely restricted myself to opening the gold chests, and only on days where i wanted the daily special reward. other days i saved the blossoms. If i don't gain a full set of buildings in every world, I will still have had a great event overall - and all played for FREE!
If you don't like an event, or events in general - don't play them. they are added extras to the main game - which you can also play perfectly well for free - just needs a bit more patience.

True as in nearly every other game in history, IF you don't complete the stated needs to fulfill the prize.Not all prizes are guaranteed.
The trees spawn at 1 o'clock (same time as new quests and daily specials).Just found 2 Cherry Blossom Trees in my city just after midnight, after the Daily Special change etc. Do Cherry Blossoms spawn randomly at this time?
Perhaps it's more about being a leader or a follower. We can play the game blindly ... or actively participate in canvasing for changes and improvements. People may call it "making the game easier" but changes can better improve the gaming experience for everyone.everything in the game is optional...including playing itI knew someone would say that events are optional ....
i completed the main quest line in all 10 of my worlds, and then moved on to the daily quests, where I am up-to-date in all but one world (where i do not wish to research a technology, but am still opening chests using lanterns gained daily from town hall and trees). In 7 of the 10 worlds i have complete cherry garden sets, and am hopeful for the remaining 3 worlds.

Access to prizes is a FEATURE of the game. ALL FEATURES are meant to be available according to their own words. Unless I BOUGHT diamonds I did not have access to this feature....
