Why? Each Bakery only has to touch two other unique Bakeries. In a 6x10 rectangle each one will be touching two others.Just FYI it is 7x10 for full bonus. You need to offset 1 row by at least 1 for all 4, 2x bonuses.

ROFL...sooo true! LOLHonestly, what did anyone expect from an event ending off 2020, we got covid, wildfires, general chaos, so a great event to wrap it all up would just feel off kilter.

The comment I was replying to specifically said that the Bakeries needed to be offset somehow to get max bonuses, which is false. The need for a road is beside the point.They need conection to the road , one road to 3.

Please quit arguing when you don't know what you're talking about. There are FOUR Winter Bakeries. All four can be put into a rectangular shape which will give the full bonuses to all four. Four 3x5 Bakeries would form a 6x10 rectangle. If you only use 3, then it's not 6x10 or 7x10 because it's not a rectangle. And every building producing resources needs a road, as I said, so it's not germane to this discussion. (And to be specific, three Bakeries would result in a 6x5 block backed up against an offset 3x5 block that would leave two empty spaces to fill, one 2x5 and one 1x5. Or, a 3x10 block offset against a 3x5 block that would result in 3x3 and 3x2 empty spaces left to fill. Neither case results in a 6x10 or 7x10 rectangle solely occupied by the Bakeries.)Yes it needs an offset for all the bonus (All) the 3. so you need a pyramid shape because its 3 rectangulars next to eachother and you still need a road, so it forms a pyramid shape of plus one with the road so 6x10 turns into 7x10, the offset is the road that you also need.

I've always been a bit down on the winter event, because the present mechanic is...not great. It's more reliant on luck as multiple factors are competing--so maybe similar average but much longer tails on the distribution. The reindeer added last year are fine--spend the diamonds if you want, but the complaining about them seems odd to me, particularly the "junk" comment when there was a sleigh builder a train kit and a bakery kit among the prizes as any one of those would set you back a bunch of diamonds to get. Last year the train was excellent and made up for the issues. This year the bakery is just ok (compared with recent prizes). The lighting is slow and annoying after your first pass through (even clicking through quickly takes too long imo) but even if it's worse than normal it's still something that happens in many events.
My main gripe with the event this year is the new calendar, which seems particularly obnoxious. I guess the idea was to incentivize players to try to get presents daily but the chances are so bad that it really doesn't change the way to play this event: wait for a daily you want and spend all your stars on that. If they had tied the key to opening presents in some other way (first present opened also gives a key, then every 10th or shuffle gets a lockpick or something) then I might be tempted to use a few stars each day for them, but as is I see no reason to bother trying for it. If you get keys, go ahead and open those doors and when the event is nearly done, find out what the prizes are (using information from...some mysterious place) and use lockpicks to get whatever you want/can.
There's just nothing about this event that I'm at all excited about other than the mediocre chance for dailies when the train comes back up--I already missed the SO days.
Lets assume you get three, you can place them in a straight line because the bonuses work in a chain.As i said because you Sir, arrived late of the discussion, its impossible nearly to get the 4 and you should with diamonds get atmost the 3, the convo was about the subject from before of getting the 3 of them, not the 4? Okay.
And that is so incorrect...Lets assume you get three, you can place them in a straight line because the bonuses work in a chain.
I saw it in a foehints video but if I am incorrect please feel free to correct me but can you please explain it.And that is so incorrect...
It has been discussed in this thread ad naseum that lining them up won't work, since the bonuses don't work in a chain, they work just like every other set. In order to get the second bonus, the fully upgraded bakery must touch two distinct fully upgraded buildings. That means in order to get all 3 buildings with their full bonus they must be pyramided. A line will only give one bonus to the outside buildings and both bonuses to the middle one.I saw it in a foehints video but if I am incorrect please feel free to correct me but can you please explain it.
LOL. Okay. Then explain the references to 6x10 and 7x10, which I have demonstrated are not relevant to a discussion of 3 Bakeries. (And I'm betting it will take quite a few Diamonds to even get 3 fully upgraded Bakeries, which you need to even start thinking about extra bonuses. Unless, of course, you're planning on waiting until next year's event or after to finish upgrading them.)As i said because you Sir, arrived late of the discussion, its impossible nearly to get the 4 and you should with diamonds get atmost the 3, the convo was about the subject from before of getting the 3 of them, not the 4? Okay.
