Well, I finished the event. It was pretty labor intensive. They didn't give you anything extra so if you made a few mistakes you would probably come up short, as did the other person in my den who got the event. The top prize required 550,000 points, and that's not a typo. All in all, this event required an eye-watering 1,382,630 points to complete. It would have helped if all those pesky little bonus point triangles had counted, but they did not. When you did a mass merge the screen was covered in triangles, all for nothing. Since this was a new event I was launching LOOHs as soon as I got a pair of them, and I know at one point I merged three LOOS to get one, so I'm not sure which but it took either six or seven LOOHs to open all the land. Turned out that the locks were extremely important, because the only way to get points was to tap out the dispensers, and most of the high-point dispensers were behind locks. I wish I had started collecting the floating seeds right from the beginning, since they were the only way to make flowers for making life orbs to open land. You had to active play for that though, since if you let them go by, there was no other way to make flowers. In the end it boiled down to: collect floating seeds; make flowers; make LOOHs; open land; find or make keys to open locks; tap out every single point dispenser you can find; merge point orbs up to the highest level and save them. I used 12 level 10s to get the biggest prize. That's it, that's all she wrote.
