A wild ticket has appeared!
Mouse cursor! I choose you!
I honestly have no idea, I started playing a whole 6 days before I registered in the forums.
But that would be in line with how they did the spring event.

Yes ... but they wanted to have everyone focus on the wheel rather than running around the wilderness looking for scraps of gold. ♩▼♩

It's a little hard to focus on the wheel when you can't spin it....just saying.
DeletedUser100832
how many summer events have you done? I've done them for many years, and people always refresh on good prizes
just now, SOK comes on the wheel, I get one spin in, and a neighbour refreshes.

I guess this is your first time playing an online game, did you just learn about the internet?
Players who have spent years playing a game, actually playing it, and players who spend rl cash to advance quickly, which there would be no online games without them, have an advantage over new players who have only been playing a couple of months.
You have no idea what you're talking about when it comes to the Summer Event and veterans, you're just trolling. The Summer Event was the premiere event that everybody looked forward to, because active players who used strategy or diamonds could gain a lot of valuable assets in a short time.
Even with the changes I will still get both complete Indian sets, already achieved that on one of two worlds, and perhaps a few valuable buildings to boot. 3 SoKs so far from one world. It is called using strategy, being frugal with tickets and logging in several times daily. Do not bother to respond.

I agree with the above. I understand that this thread is for feedback but I fail to understand many of the complaints here or in other recent event discussions (I play only since Winter 2016).
Regarding InnoGames being greedy for diamonds I strongly disagree, otherwise we'd see a big "skip with diamonds" or "buy with diamonds" button everywhere. I've spent countless hours of fun playing this game absolutely for free and I find it way more balanced towards non-paying players and newbies than any other game that I've seen.
Regarding InnoGames not listening to the feedback, I also disagree. Let's not forget that we're now getting a daily ticket which, if I'm correct, wasn't delivered on beta. The event is challenging but it was already fair even without the 3 weeks of free tickets: if you don't contribute to the development of the game, you risk not getting full sets of buildings - that's fair. Also, we're now seeing options on the quests for those that complained so much about scouting and conquering provinces. Great!
Regarding the lack of expansions, I don't fully understand the fuss. Yeah, I wish I never had to delete buildings but that wouldn't be very challenging. Anyway, I could still buy them with diamonds if I was desperate...
Regarding the wheel, I was surprised to discover the "stop" button which I hadn't read about anywhere before. I find that it *does* help to increase the chances of getting the options that I want. It requires trial and error. That being said, I found that playing over GSM data added a lot of lag when compared to WiFi and let's not forget that most Android touchscreens also have an unpleasant lag when compared to iOSs (I don't play on the browser).
In summary, I'm very happy with the event. With 25-30 tickets I was able to get the full sets on one world and on another I just need a Memorial Chhatri. And the buildings themselves are great. Free FP, goods and happiness? Gladly stored and deleted buildings for them.
I only registered to give InnoGames the credit they deserve. Keep up the great work and congratulations on another fantastic strategy game that's continually evolving.

Wow, I've not read such a deliberately rude, ignorant post for a while on any forum.
Quit your whining and be glad you played the game when you had so many more advantages. Just because the game now is tougher is no excuse for all the moaning.
Absolutely. I don't think anyone needs to be grumbling. Positive feedback, sure, but all these "it isn't like it used to be" complaints and "I want it easier" (go play noughts and crosses) posts are just clogging up the place.
I started playing with the 'stop' brake at first but became convinced that I was not controlling where the wheel ended up, or at least not controlling it in a predictable manner (on iOS, iPad, wifi fast connection). There's no real way to know other than the developers saying, since we can't run the same test twice!

I found the stop facility quite usefull when you want to clean-up and speed up the process ... before the neighbours wake-up and notice that a good prize is up for grabs.

I've not read through the whole thread, so apologies if this question has already been asked.
I have looked at the Indian Palace set on the wiki, and it doesn't state whether the production can be plundered. Can anyone enlighten me please?

According to the wiki (https://en.wiki.forgeofempires.com/index.php?search=Indian), yes, it can be plundered.

I'm also disappointed, but there is a good reason behind it. That's a good change in term of balance and now instead of collecting as much tickets as possible I spend them whenever the needed prize appears on the wheel.
Yep - I do the same - patience & saving the tickets has already paid off - 5 SoK & a Bazaar
DeletedUser107966
Many thanks, it would appear that I was on the wrong wiki
Can anyone confirm further, can all production be plundered, or just the basic coins? If I have a full set, will the plunderer take the FP, goods, medals & supplies too?
If that's the case, having one of these will make you a magnet for plunderers lol.

Good question. Having it all available to plunder is tempting.

yawn..nothing new...same silly people, playing silly game...

If the Spring set is anything to go by, each individual building can be plundered but not happiness nor the whole set in one go. Yes, the Palace will be a prime target!

I have spent the last hour or so going through the whole thread and I have to say, one of the basic issues seems to be that if you get the sets of buildings, there will be nowhere to put them. Perhaps Inno should have put some expansions on offer as Gold prizes.? Let's face it, space is the premium on this game and a reward like that gratefully received. A second issue seems to stem from the lack of tickets compared to previous events, and i have to say, this does seem to be a missing factor that gave more chances to win and is sadly missed.
In respect of the prizes, perhaps we should be thankful for small mercys in that that anything that is given away on free to play games is a bonus no matter how useless it may seem at the time. However, I think increasing the prize wheel to 26-29 prizes but reducing the tickets available is certainly not endearing Inno Games to the general Populace.
Overalll the event is a little dissapointing, but hey ho, we play these games for years and good things come to those who wait, Diamonds are there even for players like me who never buy any, so let us see what comes next.

Hmmm, that sounds worrying, so the palace (which when next to 4 other set buildings produces coins, supplies, medals, goods & FP) can be plundered for it's entire production in one go?
DeletedUser110179
There's always space if you get rid of the junk and focus on the good stuff. A little city-planning is also in order if your place is more like a small village.
