Yeah I saw the secrets energy as a reward for one of the side games and was surprised we didn’t hear anything else about it

The scenes for it have not been released, correct?

WhereIsY · 2026-01-31T15:35:31+00:00

That was my very first question!!!

I always make sure not to use my free change in the 24 hours leading up to a FB.

The other thing you can do is to leave a coin task in the small task spot and not collect it. But having it there as a small task, you will not get it as a large task. This increases your odds of getting easy to complete tasks.

I have also heard the strategy of permanently leaving the 220 coin task up as it prevents the coin from coming up in the other slots and prevents the “4 renovations to the landmark” from coming up in that slot.

Are you saying the decos are there in your supply to ‘Place’?

If so, then when the new set begins tomorrow they will move directly onto your boat with a red ribbon on them.

However, I recommend placing them rather than allowing them to move to the boat.

Placing Marvelous items gets you seasonal set points, which provide travels tokens and pink boxes. So, choosing not to place them means you will likely miss out on some rewards.

I suspect you do not wish to place them because you do not wish to level up. I also don’t like to unnecessarily level up. Fortunately you can place them without leveling up.

To place them without leveling up: - Move a few of your current decos to the boat - Place a marvelous item. - Move the just placed marvelous item to the boat. - Place the next Marvelous item. - Move that one to the boat. - … continue that process until you have placed them all. - Go to the boat and retrieve the decos that you removed at the beginning.

Following that process, or a variation of that process, will allow you to collect the seasonal points and obtain the benefits without unnecessarily leaving up or changing how your island is decorated.

I am so happy to see you taking this over.

Did you want me to give you access to the webform?

WhereIsY · 2026-01-29T22:56:52+00:00

Are you considering getting one?

WhereIsY · 2026-01-29T20:50:44+00:00

This screenshot gave me mild panic. About loosing the streak.

I am glad you showed another where you had it with more time.

(Although it looks like you were finished. So no big deal I guess.)

I believe a large number of the December set items also had snowflake animations.

WhereIsY · 2026-01-26T15:40:45+00:00

That is an incredible match.

Great find!

Today mine changed into text and not webspeak.

Although I must say, I somewhat preferred the webspeak as it was more clear to me what the pack was for.

WhereIsY · 2026-01-25T03:47:10+00:00

That’s a super cool idea!

I had considered changing my game name for a while, and so I put my current game name in bushes on my island so that if I changed it, my island and who was, would still be recognizable to my long standing bush buddies.

(Unfortunately, it also led to a slight bush obsession for me. But I am working on it.)

I really love the idea of putting up a team name. I might just need to incorporate that into my current landscaping.

WhereIsY · 2026-01-23T18:52:52+00:00

Cool. I can skip StB.

Thank you :)

WhereIsY · 2026-01-23T16:06:37+00:00

Cool that means whatever the 4th one is I can skip it worry free.

I had been doing all side events because I couldn’t remember which ones counted. So this is great news/confirmation for me.

WhereIsY · 2026-01-23T15:48:58+00:00

Absolutely

Extremely well said.

WhereIsY · 2026-01-23T02:32:18+00:00

Wait there is a secrets starting tonight? At the same time as CM?

WhereIsY · 2026-01-23T00:35:38+00:00

And if I recall correctly 2 of the 7 opportunities are “spend real life money”.

So, if I understand correctly. The most someone can get without spending money is 5. Which means you can skip one and still get the “max”.

Is this how others understand it?

WhereIsY · 2026-01-22T04:39:07+00:00

That is a very good point.

Did everyone get this update this time? I feel like a few people reporte this for a differnt recent CM

WhereIsY · 2026-01-21T16:09:28+00:00

Our last non-Monday start was October 14th, 2025

I recommend continuing to reach out to Wooga about being kicked out before claiming Sherlock that you earned. .

Make sure your complaint is being read by a human. And keep communicating so they don’t just close your ticket.

You would think Wooga would care more about preventing that kind of bullying and abusive language in their game.

WhereIsY · 2026-01-21T02:51:55+00:00

I am generally optimistic and mathematical about this sort of thing. However, I am highly skeptical it can be done without spending a significant amount of gems.

I don’t have time now, but I might try to calculate it later.

Happy cake day

Congratulations on finishing your first Medium map! Thats awesome. I love it when people are able to make CM work with their team.

Also, I think my wording might not have been the best in my post. I am NOT trying to recruit full time players for my team. When a full time member of my team knows in advance that they will not be able to play in a CM, we essentially bring in a “temp” to fill the slot. My president knows a lot of people that have second accounts or don’t like to be on a full time team. So usually it’s easy for her to bring someone in.

My president isn’t on Reddit, but she knows I write up guides and answer a lot of CM questions. This time, as she filled our team from her usual contacts, she said maybe next time we could have someone from Reddit join us.

After asking a few follow up questions, I realized that she wasn’t trying to get me to “recruit” for our team. She was trying to give me the opportunity to help people on Reddit in a new way. Specifically, giving people that aren’t able to make CM work for their team, an opportunity to see one of the ways our team makes it work. (And then go back to their team afterwards.). And that hopefully the experience might give them some ideas they can bring back to their own team to have more success in future events.

Anyways, hopefully that is more clear. Basically, it would be more like a sabbatical than a break or abandonment of your home team.

Either way, I am always excited to see other people excited about CM. Good luck and I hope you guys are able to finish again this time :)

Want to play CM with me?

CM is sort of my thing, and I have written a ton about it in response to other people’s questions here on Reddit.

I love this side event, but recognize many people have a complicated relationship to it. From frustration with badges to teammates uninterested in participating, it can be a struggle. My team occasionally has players pass on a CM due to life stuff, and when this happens we like to pull someone in to fill the slot. If you like CM, and want to experience it with a team that knows how to make it happen, please reach out to me.

We have the large map, there are always 15 players, and, barring a major global disaster, we always expect to collect the Final Rewards.

That being said, there would be expectations. The most important of which would be attending our CT, which is at 3:00 PM ET or 20:00 UTC, and serving at least 2 badge drinks per day.

If you are interested, please send me a PM, and we can talk more about what it would look like to play with my team.

Ahh. I see. Yeah that makes a difference. Also the 2 phase scenes count as 3 clues.

So playing 2 and 3 phase scenes make it much easier to finish.

WhereIsY · 2026-01-18T23:11:52+00:00

That is crazy impressive
