I was bored - and either I miscalculated, or it's gonna be almost impossible.
We need 27 collection cycles for pottery, shortest option only - 20 for jewellery, 14 for glass. Meaning that we need to unlock pottery today, jewellery tomorrow, and glassware with like 2 days to spare?!
I wanted to get some sleep this week!
And that's not even counting the CCs which will make me go mad for sure... ugh...
Please tell me I miscalculated things...
I unlocked pottery very quickly
Same here. I started the event early in the morning before going to sleep. I set my sims to the longest task for candles and they unlocked Pottery when they were done this morning.
It's always the jewelry for me that is that last I need for everything.
I'm not worried about pottery - that will be the easiest resource probably.
But we need quite a lot of jewellery - 20 collections, without spending any SP, means 22-23 cycles - and as you can't get more than 9 collections a day if you actually get up... that's like 3 days! I'm not sure whether I'll be quick enough to unlock it. I seriously doubt it.
And starting an event when I already know I won't finish unless I'm really lucky - and don't sleep - ugh, my motivation is basically non-existent by now.
I also unlocked pottery very quickly and have enough to get the hanging out item when I get to unlocking it. I have to say that I have spent a lot of the day obsessively collecting the bonus though. I'm not sure I have the resolve or time to keep that up for 5 days. My biggest concern is getting enough coins as my spins on the last event were dire!! i ended up using LP and SP to help me on my way.
Chelle23......hope you are ok. health comes first I missed a few bits and pieces over the last year or so through pesky medical stuff. Still here to tell the tale though! Biggest hugs x

Yeah, it's okay, they're just making a mini-series out of what should be a ten minute test because of a surgery I had 5 years ago. Got to talk them out of the general as I'm high risk, wish me luck!! Lol. They aren't making the decision until Friday

Is it possible that they stated at the same time for everyone? Cause I checked at 7am - nothing - and I just started the event. With 4d23h left I think we're free to choose our starting time within certain limits?
Mine seemed to start when I first opened the app at 9am this morning UK time. It said 4days 23 hours for me then also so I assumed it had started at 8am UK time.
I am going to try to get as much of the items as I can over the next few days then if I end up running low on time I will spend some SP as I have been building them up specially for this event. Let's hope I do not have to spend many or any! Good luck everyone

Good Luck Chelle23. I will say a prayer and hope that all works out well. In the US, our healthcare has become a bureaucratic mess. My Dr now types the entire visit and barely looks at me. A lot has changed in 10 years. Get well soon!

Mine started at 2am. I was already in the game when it started. It sounds like it waits for you to open the game before starting the countdown. It probably wouldn't wait for more than a day but it's definitely nice to know for the future.
