While I understand needing to be online for the event is annoying, I don’t think people realize how lucky we’ve been to be able to play offline. For games that have events, it’s fairly unheard letting players play offline. That is one aspect of this game I feel the developers have been very generous about.

And what's strange is that for the two years I've been playing this game, I have never once gone off-line and yet I've always done well.

Anyone else think it's kind of weird that Jack Skellington is the focal character for an event that's neither around Halloween or Xmas?

Are you seriously questioning the logic of this band of idiots?

Didn’t realize I could get elastigirl in this event, so that is pretty cool since I don’t have any incredibles characters

I agree, because I've always done pretty decent, but I don't get the whole online offline thing. I just play the game. Mostly in my house, on my iPad, which is hooked up to the wifi, but I've also played on downtime at work, so I don't get it still.

And maybe my life is just too full, but I don't care about the hassle to go offline and then online just to cheat in an imaginary leaderboard for imaginary prizes. I have too much going on for that nonsense.

You've never collected tokens while sitting on an airplane?

That is what constitutes my offline play. And it is very nice that DMK allows it. I would have loved to play more games during our recent 12 hr and 15 hr international flights, but so many Freemium games don't work without the internet connection. With Pokemon Go, to maintain streaks, on the way to our destination we had to be conscious of when we logged in and caught & spun so we got credit for our 1 day that was the equivalent of 2 days in the real world (dang, International Date Line).

I’ve literally been on one airplane trip in the last six years...some of us still prefer (cough only can afford cough) travel by automobile! And I do think with the presence of wi-fi just about everywhere now its never a data suck to be “online” constantly, so nbd to me!

I've traveled internationally three times in the past two years, all outbound flights were overnight. I always approach that flight as seven sleeping pills and the next words I'm hearing are "Welcome to Madrid, where the local time is...". For domestic flights, I'm usually listening to music or watching TV. If I'm flying with someone else, I'm certainly not on my phone.

Not everyone is blessed with unlimited data on their phone:



I dont know the span of time this is over.

Same. I just don't see the point of going through all the steps just to get ahead of other people.

Are you seriously questioning the logic of this band of idiots?

I know! What was I thinking?

I agree, because I've always done pretty decent, but I don't get the whole online offline thing. I just play the game. Mostly in my house, on my iPad, which is hooked up to the wifi, but I've also played on downtime at work, so I don't get it still.

Same here. I don't bother to go offline for the game. I was thinking about our upcoming trip overseas & cruise - I won't be able to get online there. As for airplanes, I do appreciate that I can play this game to help pass the time. I hate flying and generally can't get comfortable enough to sleep and this has been one of the few games that I can still play when I'm flying or on a ship where the wifi is just too expensive for a game. As for driving places, it's not an option for us unless we seriously limit our vacation destinations. As for WDW, it would take us a week to get there, at least.

I haven’t gotten Flower yet, but I’m only 8 tokens from welcoming Thumper. I doubt Bambi will be this easy.

I need 12 hats and I also don't have Flower...getting there

 

[supernova]

Uh oh...you might becoming predictable. I totally knew your reply was coming!!!

I've claimed handsome, I've claimed witty, I've claimed cynical. I have never once claimed unpredictable.

450 gems for a non-essential character is a waste. So I would imagine the poor saps on here who have posted that they do have Flower must have parted with $10 bucks to get him.

Now, once this whole "half price" promotion ends, are they honestly going to jack the price up to the full $19.99? I suppose they might if he's helpful with Bambi's abysmal token drops. Time will tell.

 

[mmmears]

I got Flower because I wanted him. And I did use up some of my saved gems to do it. I wasn’t going to pay $10 for him. Oh and as for those sales they are constant. Rex was on “sale” from the time he was available to the day i used gems to get him (maybe a month or 2 ago) so that was one long “sale.” Was getting Flower a dumb move? Maybe but I’m glad I have him. He’s been a fave since I was very very small.

Okay, so we're down to a little less than 2 days, and I really want to start this Maleficent thing NOW! I'm very intrigued by the new concept, and it has refreshed the game for me. Given it a new spice so to speak. I'm very excited.

So here are my stats for now:

Everyone is at 10 except the following:
Toy Alien (this poor little dude, I'm like neglecting him almost) - collecting for 9
Fairy Godmother - collecting for 9
Peter Pan - moving to 6 now
Wendy - ready for 10 (and she is going to wait there for a while, until they calm down with all the new going on)
Thumper - needs 13 ears to be welcomed
Bambi - still waiting on his story
Flower - I haven't gotten him yet. I definitely have enough gems, but I'm waiting for now, because he is permanent and they seem to be doing event after event, so I just want to give it a little more time
Nani - ready for 9
Lilo - ready for 7
Stitch - ready for 6
Angel - ready for 9
Pleakley - ready for 9
Jumba - ready for 9
Cobra Bubbles - ready for 9

Until I see who is the most helpful for Maleficent I'm going to leave everyone where they are. They also mentioned something in the livestream about purple quests, but they didn't specify if that was for the featured character set, or for everyone. So I'm off to watch the silly thing AGAIN to see if I can get more info. They really did not do a good job of explaining this event. I will say though, on the positive side, for the things I do understand, I'm very excited!

 

[hopemax]

So both games have collected everything for Thumper, except the ear hats. IOS, I need 12. Windows, I need 23!

well, the "Discount" is based on how much it would cost the gems to get the character ... and 500 gems is $19.99 so to get a character "worth" 450 and 100 gems, then $9.99 does seem like 1/2 off

 

[JamesGarvey]

Went ahead and bought Flower, thanks boss from 5 years ago who thought an itunes gift card was a good xmas bonus. Shocked by how few characters earn tokens for him.

Legendary chest is visible on the calendar for the Incredibles 2 release on June 15th, items vary by what Incredibles characters (and maybe attractions) you lack. Syndrome and Elastic-Girl costume are legendary rarity.
