Time for new update?

Strange though, I have no idea what Alchemist is, because once you get the maximum award, there is no description of what it was all about. The only hint is the icon, which is a beaker, so I'm guessing it has to do with the Laboratory? Maybe reaching expert level in the Lab, or exploring it a certain number of times?

Well I really don't know now. I went and visited a friend and she had not got the chest and had not done the alchemist thing. At her level it was called converter and do you know I've completely forgotten what it was!! But anyway the reward that she would get for reaching next level 2 was 2 bombs and a compass from the alchemists chest. So I wonder, if she was near level 5 whether the reward would now read 500 of this and that?? It seems it is the only thing that we all have in common. Go and look for yourself and see what I mean cos all of a sudden I got brain freeze haha.

Hey I got it!! :cheers : It's for charging collections. For the last level you have to have charged 500 collections and one of the prizes is a detectives chest with 500 items of each room exploring item.

Cool, I charged 500 collections? LOL, 200 of those are Chic on a Beach.

Actually I think that 500 is for last level. It shows a total of 757 or some such that he has to get on my friends place. So I had already done that by the time of the update. If you open inventory, on the left is all about YOU!! Haha it will tell you how many collections you have charged. It was probably the best reward ever paid out in this game. I'm so busy now I don't have time for rampant anything

You get 500 of each snatchin banishing item for finish the acheivement for using 10,000 energy. It only counts energy used after update was in stalled

Different achievement. I am talking about the 500 coral, 500 batteries, 500 containers, 500 golden seeds, 500 gravitons, 500 golden cannonballs etc. I got it as soon as I updated cos I had charged so many collections. The 500 snatchin banishing one will be pretty awesome too hey?? The rewards have never been this good. Why did they wait so long??

Whoa... sounds like we would need another list "achievments" in the How-To's....
hm... would need someone a little more organized then I am.. *whistle*

The thing is the achievements seem to happen when you're just minding your own business. Too fast and furious to keep track of. Sometimes I'm not really sure of what I've done. Would be so hard to organize cos it would mean visiting everyone of different levels and looking at their achievements. 24 achievements each with 5 levels. Then say okay achievement one level one: you need to do this and you will get this. Yep, too organized for me too! Haha

I know what chest you were talking about, you also get that one for taking 100 screenshots to Facebook, (I spammed my old fb account to finish that (: I was just saying that the 500 snatchin one exists in at least two achievements I know of.

I don't have Facebook so can't get it that way. Yes the snatchin one will be good I guess. Snatchins don't give much though, I was thinking. An alien banishing one would be good

Thanks!

what is this flaw?

The charging items are not taken away when you charge and yes it still does it:)

Actually Brad, getting the snatchin one was a bit of a let down. I got 500 of everything sure enough. I only have a bookworm one so went off looking. Everyone has a bookworm, not many of others and they pay out crap stuff. Now an alien one would be something else!!

You'll find the snatchin one a big help when you get the acheivement for banishing 300 snowdoll snatchins. It's the last one on the list, stage four I believe. Too bad I only have a. Few friends with only one of them :/

Yes I have a few friends with them but I never took any notice. Maybe I will write it down the same way I do ninjas. Hey I found a friend with Blackbeard! I had 2 gold doubloons and banished him and I got 2 pirates from one of the new collections.

Well now that was short-lived! After I opened the pirate ship, there were only 3 quests (explore the brig once, explore the brig in silhouette, explore the brig in night mode), and then no more quests again. Why would they even tease us with an achievement for 1,000 quests?

At least the achievements will keep us playing (those that are attainable, at least), and I still have the pirate collections to complete. My cannonballs are running out, and it's either buy them with diamonds, trade with the pirate snatchin (doubloons are a rare drop), or win cannonballs from getting the top achievements. I'll go for the achievement option.

Off to fail some explorations now...

Fancy having 5 failures as an achievement!! Lol the big loser achievement and the prize is an empty chest!! (yes im kidding!!) I planned to just do living room and tap like a lunatic in one place and you lose 5 seconds each tap. I can't believe the running out of quests thing. Lily will be whipping them to get new ones cos she's the one who cops it in the neck. Found 3 doubloons, banished 3 blackbeards and got 3 pirates. That's good but it was like waiting for oilcans to drop and we all know how that went!

Oh, to "fail" a room, just tap on the door exit button on the right. Easy as pie. You can do this on the living room, one after another, when you have the unlimited energy ruuning. It's a waste of energy though, and by that I mean real-life personal energy, tapping and exiting and rinse and repeat 500 times - what a ridiculous achievement indeed!

Yep, they're just quests to get you to "waste" energy and diamonds. The other one I can't imagine finishing is the "buy X amount of chests" one. The first stage is buy 1 chest, then the next one is 10 chests, and it'll go up from there. That's a huge amount of diamonds for collection items I don't really need!

I did the 5 fail now have to do 50 fails!! Actually as far as energy goes, a friend pointed out the tip on this forum about using silver sun and golden phoenix together. Churns out so much energy that you cant keep up. But that is not the point. And I bought a chest by accident last week (which didn't count) and it had 9 items that I had 25 of already or 36 like tooth fairy!! I won't be doing that "achievement". On a brighter note I am 23 gifts away from getting the 500 exploring items chest, the detectives chest you know. Woohoo!

The chest for using 1000 energy also gives Collection items that you get as mystery gifts already. I do like the 500 snatchins banisters though.

How is multiple gifting considered "rampant cheating"??? I think it's pretty awesome that we are able to help our friends with collection items without losing the items we work so hard to earn. I honestly don't see how people could think its cheating...but that's just me!

Haha the term "Rampant cheating" is just a phrase I found funny when the Admin used it. About why they may have abandoned the game. This was before the brilliant update. I also dont consider multi gifting "RC" but a way of helping out friends and to make up for the rampant crashing, which is actually worse since the update.
