� Rev and Ride and Points Aplenty - I sure hope it will be for everyone this time...

This event is the same game as Surfingers. For the ones that have tried it last time, it is very hard to play. For some people, including me, it got easier and actually was a bit fun after you play a lot and get the hang of it. But I also know it will be hard for someone else and will never get easier.
Here are some tips I have from last time which may help those that want to try:

If you are right handed, try to swipe the screen on the far right of the screen. This way you can try to block as little as possible the screen so you can see what’s coming ahead

Don’t bother trying to go for the reward chest unless it’s in the way that you will get it naturally. The chest rewards are not worth the fall (mostly you can fall if you move up or down too fast or slow). I had 4 chests so far and I got 4000 coins, 1 shovel, 1 platinum ingot, and 1 green gem. I fell each and everytime after I got the chest and had to pay to continue lol

Like the chests, don’t try to get the stars. Grab the ones on the way but focus on swiping up or down and avoiding the obstacles (hot air balloon or big giant tree). The stars will come naturally as you play but not trying to get them on purpose will make you stay focused and not fall as easily

Try to get the magnet if you can, this is a godsend because you can get all the stars while only focusing on just moving up or down
Since this event should start next week, there should be event tasks in the regatta. We didn’t have it last time as it happened during RoC week, so we will need your help in gathering the event tasks when it starts.

The personal rewards for this event will be “spin the wheel”. There will be 2 new profile pictures and new decor (s?). We have posted a sneak peek of the pictures and new decor yesterday, which we will include again on this post for your reference.

Points Aplenty: There should be 2 “2x event point” events for Rev and Ride - 11/24/2020 and 11/28/2020.

So, did you guys start enjoying this event when you got used to it? I struggled all the way through. Getting a good score completely eluded me

I'm not going to bother to try. It was TOO HARD.

I will try to get personal goals only

So everyone sees this event in their calendar? It seems that android users in my coop can see it but iOS cannot. And also mining is not visible in android but is shown on iOS.

I didn't see it in Android until recently so it may pop up. It's possible on some platforms that they can't put all the events on the calendar at the same time and had to choose which to show first and those coding the IOS chose one event and the Android chose another but hopefully we'll all get them all?

My android baby town has rev and ride but my main town on the iPad has mine time.  I guess that is okay since my baby town is just now opening the mine

This Event Popped Up As Soon As Sweet Week Ended.



I did do better after I figured it out. Still Not a Huge fan yet. I will of course give it another whirl this time.         



Still Not Happy Over The Small Fortune Required To Continue and I Just Don't Like The Prize Wheel  

I didn't finish in top three last time, so here I go again trying to master this one. Hope I have enough air sickness bags (for the prize wheel).

Not sure if I'll do it. Last time I really sucked at it.

Well I got Rev and Ride

Will this mean I don't get mine time and ore galore tomorrow? It isn't on my calendar so.......

Looks like I won't get it, some of you already have it

Yet some players have neither........

I have rev and ride too. I hope we get ore galore despite not getting mining event. 

I don't have mine time and no rev and ride for me. I'm not the chosen one this time. It is really weird that players don't have the same events. Nothing special Playrix messed up again

I have neither Rev and Wreck or Mine Time. When I send gifts, my friend gets tickets. When I get a gifts, they are also tickets. This is really messed up.

why? why? why? do we keep thinking this is accidental on PX part?

@Willow Mist Honestly, I don't know what to think anymore ... I don't have Rev and Ride either. If tomorrow's regatta has135-point tasks related to this mini-game, I will be at a disadvantage and I will get very angry. My coop only has 3 members, and only I don't have this game.
You ask why? I don't know if it's random, intentional, a mistake ... I just know that I don't know anything.

In our 9 member coop who all play with IOS, I am the only one who has the rev and ride game.  The others have mine game today and in 3 days the Agriculture I don't have either.  
We will all start in 7 days with the professor Experiments.  I wonder why Plarix gives us different games just as we didn't all get the double points with hammer time and in the professor event last time. 
 Keep finding this strange

I used to have mine time on my calendar. But then it went away and Rev and Ride appeared. Today I started Rev and Ride and there seems to be some improvements - for example the trees now have a large red warning sign on them. Nice they must have listened to everyone complaining they could not see the trees coming...

In general it seems a little easier this time around. I have played 15 games and only crashed once. I don't know if that is just because I learned enough last time to be a better player (I follow all the tips above and I use a stylus as well) or if it is really just a little easier. From experience, I think the game is about to go turbo on me any minute and will become much harder.

For some reason I am just not seeing the stupid trees.  The warning signs didn’t help me. Lol. Or at least I think they are supposed to be trees. Last time I had an easier time avoiding them.  Maybe it is because I have rev and ride on a small android phone with my baby town instead of my iPad where I placed last time.  My higher level town on the iPad has mine time. At some point it would be nice if they had the same events at the same time.  But now I am curious if either of them will get high voltage...

Oh Playrix... really???

 First spin 1 silver ingot 

Second spin 6 pickaxes 

I'm not really motivated to continue riding this rollercoaster...
