So 1 day 19 hours left of active event.. Still no Princess zoe. even though dev diary states we can all get one
In case BB Forgets what IT posted in IT'S dev diary
Princess Zoe Explorer (Limit: 1*)
*: Important information about the item limits: Limited to the given amount per player for this year's event. If you already own the item (regardless of the amount) from a previous event, you can obtain the listed amount of the item again this year.
Here is some feedback:
1. I get that we have to pay gems for past doors we missed. But it is absolutely rubbish to make me pay for past doors just so I can get a current special door. FOUR times I logged in on the day of a special door and surprise surprise, I can't get the CURRENT door WITHOUT paying for ALL past doors I missed
2. I missed about half of the event. I try to do all of the questlines so I can get as many achievements as possible. Surprise surprise, I stall out on questlinesa day and a half before the event ends because it tells me to wait TWO and a half days before the next questline activates. I get doing questlines out of the gate when event starts that you would make players wait to do other questlines. However AFTER the timeframe has passed to which the various questlines become active, they should just automatically activate once previous questline is complete. I will loose out on being able to fully upgrade my egg basket because of this. And also loose out on any rewards also as a result. Not cool BB. Not cool.
I also try to activate Scout post/Observatory to chain Wood cutter. Surprise surprise, game dumps me within a couple min & of course I have to wait 10 min or so for the game to fully load before I can go to adventure island because if I go any sooner, I get "stuck" in limbo between home island and adv island
I also see that we STILL DO NOT have any sort of "mass sending groups of expos" option yet. Something we as players have been begging to have for a couple years. If the game is going to be as wonky as it is, at least give us the one thing most long time players with tons of expos wants. I am going to be honest. All that clicking, 3 clicks per expo times 118 expos for me which is 354 clicks. And that is just for expos. Never mind geos. This repetitive motion is NOT good for our hands
Technically they say that expos only come back with currency if sent out "during" event & return "during" event.
However this is what I do. I start sending out my expos a couple days or more ahead of the event on the longest search (length is depending on the expo). And have them set to come back sometime during the first day of event (preferably a few yrs aft event starts or later). I log into event right when it starts. Stay logged in for about 10-15 min or so or whatnot to get the event started and going. Then I log off entirely. Come back a few hrs later and BAM!! All my expos return with currency.
For end of event, I will send out my expos so that they will return on a search that gets them back after collection phase ends. But have them back in just under 24hrs of when I last log on. I log off before event ends. And don't log back on till I figure all of my expos have returned. And BAM!! Usually all my expos will return with one last round of currency. Reason I say 24hrs is because I believe our islands go into sleep mode if we're not on for more then 24hrs.
I make no guarantee these will always work. But have had much success with this for the past couple years on all events
So the dev diary does not say one way or another, is the Sugar Rush Buff supposed to triple the inputs as well as the outputs? would be the first buff in the game that did so?
I have 3 Zoe, looks like I did buy one for gems, seems odd that the max quantity for that explorer is three when we could get 4 Fluffy Butt this year and have many more motherly etc....

Princess Zoe---What a mistake. Not sure why there are limits on any specialists. 1 per event if a highly touted specialists but give the players an opportunity to get one.
Candy Factory/Sugar Rush---Another screw up. No where does it indicate there is a 300% input to the buff. I like the idea of a 6 hour to use for small quests to make stuff (produce granite, salt, and other similar ones) but not at that high of a cost.
Achievements--Eliminate the Garrun and Where to eggs come from tasks. Or make Garrun via eggs not gems...Dumb. Also Where Do Eggs Come, if I am going to spend 99 eggs per adventure at least let me get those eggs back. Spend 495 eggs in order to get 30 eggs in return. What the heck is that?
Love the new Fluffy Butte explorer (cute name)
Game play is much improved since Christmas and Valentine's. Keep heading in that direction but at a quicker pace please.
I love events and really look forward to each one
