Growing snaps, growing snaps etc ... Think am going getting bored by this event quite quickly. Furthermore considering they do not reward the colosseum s result and put a limit if 40 in breeding and selling plant dragons, was at least hoping that altough a drag, would help to stack FF. Btw, seems that you can only turn in FF as from a certain amount. I got that first deco but no progress bar showing anywhere else and i cannot turn in my gathered 95 accumulated FFs.

Under "Turning in FFs for Prizes", little me said "When you have earned enough FFs for a prize, the Firefly icon will start to glow!....etc," When you collect another 180, 95+180=275 you s/b able to turn them in for the next prize.
Perhaps the reason why we aren't getting fireflies from the Colosseum is that you entered the dragon before the event began? I hope so, because thats where a good chunk of my magic and stuff came from in the last events.
Used 6 gems to get a dragon out of my cave (turned out to be a Wraith) and received 6 fireflies. Seems like (from my own experiments and others' posts) spending 1 gem to speed up breeding gets you 1 firefly. Not sure if there is a cap on that.
If that is the case, I wonder if we can spend 750 gems to make up the difference Bloodstone talked about in his calculations instead of having to pay real money. That's a lot of gems but worth it if I don't have to spend real money.
Seems like in this event you can only spend your fireflies when you have enough to purchase a prize, you can't gradually turn them in. I guess that would solve the problem of people not having any extras at the end of the event to redeem for gems.
Bloodstone, do your calculations include clearing obstacles, because if they do, most people will have to spend more than $10.
Yes, though it excludes the fireflies you would get for using gems daily.
I feel most players can afford to spend at least 10 gems per day to break even in that regard (assuming daily gold in the Colosseum and at least 5 reliable gem buddies)
Having to spend real money to obtain all rewards is another bad move in my opinion.
We don't know that this is actually true yet, though I strongly suspect it to be.
All the events so far have encouraged people to spend money so I assume this one will be much the same.
However, I doubt they are expecting people to spend too much money to get the final prize, so I also strongly suspect the daily caps will change as the event progresses.

In the Help section of the Gloaming Gate, one of the items is "Extra Fireflies?" and in there it says:
"When the Firefly Festival is complete any unspent fireflies will automatically go towards the rewards. If you have any Fireflies remaining, you will get 1 Gem for every 5 Fireflies you have remaining."

Not being able to turn in ffs until the next prize is due Will make it much easier to see progress. That's a definite improvement.
Kindle park1: nearly all dragons are frolicking in their habitats! (A Thorny little problem to resolve...)
Smartphone park2: Geode, a dragon with rocks in! Still to breed 4 dragons...

Yep. Absolutely!
In fact, if you click on the Turn in icon, a pop up will tell you how many more FFs you need to get the next price. Huge improvement compared to previous events.
Another thing that could be added to bloodstones calculations is the possibility of a bonus FF gem purchase. (in addition to the 1 FF per gem). I think a previous event had 6 gems for 30 magic (or eggs maybe). We could have the same for FF in a couple weeks. After all, the treasure tab for FF shows a gem. I think that would get us close to the total FF needed. Also TRIPLE magic days... but you could just consider that as if one more day was double.
Do we know for a fact that gifting gems doesn't get u FF? We know Collosseum wins, finishing breeding, decoration building, habitat building, and habitat upgrading are all checked off the list... I'll let you guys know if habitat building or upgrading COMPLETION gives FF when both habitats finish, unless someone who knows wants to chime in now. I'm assuming it doesn't. But yeah... no one has mentioned gifting
I suspect BFS will add 11th (maybe 12th too) island soon so that maxed out players can add a new island and clear obstacles.
Yeah. This is the first event that was not preceded by a new island.
