Last week the Legendary Tin Man arrived to the frontier. Y'all have had a time to collect 'em into yer decks! This week's posse event will again focus on gettin' those Tin Men and some Steel to merge 'em tough fellas.
However, there are some twists in this event:
- The event is one day shorter. Work with yer posse to hit the 1 million mark in four days!
- The cow and horse raid sites have longer cooldown times. Use yer Chris Cowbell cards to speed up the cooldown!
- Y'all earn more points for sending out a train! Fill 'em faster to get even more points.
NOTE: The merging costs of Chris Cowbell cards have been reduced. The new merging costs are:
Goods
Rugged 1500
Veteran 11000
Notorious 52000
Steel
Rugged 5000
Veteran 10000
Notorious 30000

What is more annoying is that the Chris's cowbell cards very rarely pop up in the card packs. Even though I now have the permanent silver pack I havent seen one for at the very least a month now. (Of which I have the silver pack for a week now.)
So if the use of the cowbell cards is promoted please adjust the appearing rate of the cards as well. Especially if you claim we need them this event...
Wel with that my rant is over. Hope it helps you guys.

More variety in missions or tasks on daily basis would keep people playing while they wait for, what will be now, extended cool downs. Maybe "in-Posse" challenges or High Noon Quick-draw Duel or varment clearing. How about connecting railroads to other Posse town for some commerce? Missions could be varietal and focus on specific talents of sidekicks (sharpshooting, scouting, speed, damage, track laying, bronco busting)
Another thought to spice things up while waiting is to have mini-games in the Saloon for all those idle sidekicks to enjoy. Something like a real Saloon would have, slots, card games, etc... be creative.
The game needs help with the Town Layout functionality. There needs to be a tool, where all buildings can be removed and placed. It is too difficult to rearrange a town with limited space, building by building. Also, it would be great to save a few Town Layouts, so that you don't have to remember or spend an hour doing a rearrange.

Yall complain too much about this and that and want things easy. Just play the game and be up for the challenge. Is that what a game is. Go through it and find out the mystery instead of knowing? When uve completed the challenge than you will know. Just like when u first start playing any game
Enjoy it as its not your idea of how the game is
I always thought that if you had a way of maybe letting us buy the time with diamonds if we wish to go faster? This would maybe even help with you guys making some funds by people replenishing their diamonds to achieve a goal. The steel is also hard to acquire although not as hard as the cc cards which like I have found to really not be worth saving because it takes away from me being able to keep other resources to keep my town safe enough to be raided so I don't lose my funds when I have to turn the game off only to come back and I lose all that I had worked so hard to save, so either I have to stay online all day moving my screen every few seconds so it doesn't have to reload and I get raided. I have worked so hard to keep my resources and now find with the prices being in the millions to just update a building is really difficult to acquire. I have cleared off my whole map at times and still I cannot reach the millions I need to upgrade any building at the level I am at.
Ok, so all this wind I have blown here, maybe we could spend our diamonds for special resources to our choosing so we can enjoy the game in more length without worrying we have to shut it down and lose all the resources we accumulated. Or maybe we can save our funds in a locked bank we can guard so we don't have to worry about losing so we can keep upgrading our town at the same time as the wrangling for trains. OR BETTER YET, MAKE IT SO WE DONT GET BUMPED OFFLINE AT ALL SO WE CAN KEEP DEFENDING EVERYTHING AND PLAY EVERYTHING AT THE SAME TIME, PLEASE TO THE LATER. I bet you will find them thar rootin tootin cowpokes a Do-in a jig if that can happen.
But all in all this is my most favorite game on out their on the www by far and being disabled and bed ridden, I play many games and love this one the very best. You guys all are awesome at not only the game but your customer support and your way of making the game more fun with every new facet that you guys create. Keep up the great work and I feel everyone should stop for a minute and clap for all the guys who make this game possible for us all. THANK YOU ALL , YOUR TOPS!!! Hugs, Pam
We will keep on changing the event structure once in a while to introduce y'all new types of events. We hope this keeps the posse feature interesting and fun! We're also always listening to yer feedback to improve the game.
Thanks also for all the suggestions y'all have given!
Basically, the risk-reward of this game is not on an equal basis. Generally, when common sense is applied, the reward always outweighs the risk. This game has proven that the risk is always, and I mean always, higher than the reward. Why would I bet $100,000 to win $1,000? That's the mindset, as we the community, see. I wish you guys would prove me wrong, but, you won't. You'll make us forget this moronic change with a newer, even more moronic change. It's what you do.
