I sent an airship with 300 wheels but only 98 items required. BTW, that ship came in this morning and I was holding it for a DQ, I never checked the number of items BEFORE GMT new day began. Not sure if they  CHANGED in number, but I assume not.

TSue, have you always added them up...or just happen to notice this time?

Just called back the airship.  This time the number of items is correct for the number of wheels.  84/252.

Called it back another two times.  Ship for 297 wheels requested 99 items, the correct amount
Ship for 306 wheels requested 102 items, the correct amount.

So, it looks like the first ship after the end of the winter event was a glitch.  No cap on the number of items - the sky is still the limit.

I have two questions and wondering if someone could help.
1) Due to the different times zones be they in the US or other countries do the seasonal events start and end at the exact same time?
2) If I change my room to the Spring Room now will others be able to play the HO Rooms if I don't make it in on time for the spring event and do the update for it?

This is probably more info than you may want, but …

Each platform (PC, iOS, Android) receives its own update.  Because Apple, GooglePlay, and Amazon have to approve the updates for the mobile devices, there are times when the various platforms will not start an event at the same time.

Within each platform, an event will start and end at the exact same time - which is midnight GMT (for me on the East Coast, that is currently 7 PM).  Elephant Games tends to  the start of an event into their programming, so on occasion, after downloading the update for the event, the event will already be in progress instead of kicking off at midnight GMT.

Will friends be able to access your Spring room if you haven't downloaded the applicable update?  Maybe, maybe not.  No way to predict what the developers may change.

Last year, the Spring Event started on March 23 (Easter occurred on April 1).  This year, Easter falls on April 21, so the Spring Event could start later.  Or maybe, the event will be wrapping up as Easter arrives.

How many energy units do you hold in reserve? I've not run very many amulets and decided to use the no cooldown amulet aggressively between the end of the winter event and the start of the spring event but I don't know if they are of significant advantage anywhere other than the DQs. 

I haven't set a minimum for energy units, which probably means I haven't run them down low enough to feel anxious about them.  

As to whether they are useful for anything other than DQ's, it would depend on the player.  Some people who have trouble seeing the morphing flowers have used an amulet to help them get through timed morphing CC tasks.  Others have used an amulet during the seasonal events to help them collect all the flying objects.

It's possible a player might use an amulet during a CC if they had fallen behind and was running out of time to catch up.  I've only used the no cool down time for HOS amulet, and don't anticipate needing to use any of the others.  So I think I'd like to have 300 energy units in reserve when a CC rolled around.  If I used any of the other amulets, I think I'd feel comfortable having 500 energy units in my inventory at all times.

You might know by now that I'm not really a hoarder so my "reserve" just happens to be whatever I have, but I DO try to use them wisely. I haven;t been very diligent in getting the daily 20 recently.

 

What do you do regarding pet medallions?  Do you have a huge stockpile of them or do you craft pet food (even if there's no reason, such as a DQ or CC task) when they exceed a certain amount?
