No chance of making the chair – zingite material is too difficult to obtain.
I have played SO many games every day and I am only up to a total of 10 gems. I earned none yesterday – after playing many, numerous games. I have played at least 25 games today and only received 1 zingite!!! Ridiculous. I’m done trying to earn anymore.
Played 30-40 games today and received ZERO zingites. Did not have this problem yesterday. I filed an in game report, but it would be nice if this event could be extended.
I’m a bit disappointed in the Zingite feature. My experience is that the reward rate is fairly poor. I’ve played a variety of games and have only received 2. It’s summer – and while I’m not in school – I’d rather be out enjoying the warmer weather. I think I wouldn’t mind it as much (although I’d be disappointed in not being able to craft the chair) if the zingite were retained in our docks for a similar feature in the future.
I agree. I played several different games yesterday and today and have won only 1 piece of zingite. So I doubt I will get enough to make the chair, especially since the event doesn’t last very many days to begin with.
I’m more than a little disappointed. I played a lot of games on Monday, and got 2 Zingites. I played even more games on Tuesday, and didn’t get any Zingites. On the other hand, I played multiple games of Wacky Zingoz on both days, and won 3 rugs, 2 hoodies, and a trophy.
I absolutely agree, three days playing games all day and only 4 zingites and we need 20, it’s insanity. I’m tired of spending so much time on this game for such little reward.
Well it is now Friday. 2 days left. In my 3 accounts I’ve averaged 1.9 zingites a day (probably a bit higher because I was traveling Monday and only played Wacky Zingoz but a 2.3 would be generous). If the purpose of Zingite activity was a fun addition, IMO it’s a fail. Not sure if how the reward rate was determined – zingites/hour or per games (overall) played. For me the two games that seemed to reward the most were Wacky Zingoz and Lily Padz. If the purpose was to have more games played I’d say it was a success – I certainly played more games than normal. However after today I’m back to my normal routine as there is no way to get the zingites needed to craft a chair. I would have been more inclined to continue if after playing 6 games (my limit) that I’d be guaranteed a certain number of zingites by using tokens (and maybe a limit so only 20 total could be obtained from tokens – probably a coding nightmare though).
Is there a limit to how many Zingite we can earn each day?
10
I missed the fine print that zingite MAY be awarded. Not a big fan of random awards when we work so hard to win our prizes. GRRRRRRRR
Agreed! I have only won one piece so far — takes way too much time playing the games when the awards are random.
Trying to collect any zingite has not been fun at all. I am never going to have enough to make the chair.
How many prizes are we allowed to get playing wacky zingoz per day?
The Next Wacky Festival is not working. First. I did update the program. Second. I did send messages from the game to the Help department. Third. I use a Samsung smart phone. Problem 1: It did not award Zingite for 7 games out of 8. Problem 2: It did take the 1 Zingite I won and delete it. Problem 3: I did have 1 game of Wacky Zingoz that was 10,000 and change. It froze the system. I had to close the window and clear it. No prize was awarded. The only part that worked is the floating Wacky. I was able to catch 5 pieces of food. Please correct these problems. Thank you.
There is only a chance of awarding Zingite per game. It is not guaranteed. If the server disconnects while playing, the game has no way of knowing that you’ve earned a prize.
So what kind of impossible scores does it take to win a zingite because I’ve been playing all day, had quite a few that have awarded prizes but not a single zingite has been won. Not happy.
OMG I just looked at the recipe – TWENTY????????????????????????? Yeah, so much for getting a chair. SMH.
I was playing arcade games and winning zingite pieces.. got about 5 and then it didn’t seem to matter what game I played or my score.. I didn’t get anymore I thought we could get 10 a day… & when I tried to find the ones already collected I couldn’t find them,,, not in my dock… I went to my room & found where to build the game chair on my workbench and opened it but it seems to indicate I don’t have any collected yet… What happened?? where did they go??
Please send in-game feedback
Sally, I think I left in game feedback?? made a comment under “help options” but don’t think it made any difference on my account.. but today it does seem to be working.. took me about 2 hours of game playing… all different games.. but I was able to collect all 10 zingite pieces today & they stayed in my dock so, hopefully it’s working now.. I’m just sad my hard work yesterday is lost =( I’m excited to build some computer chairs but not sure I will have enough time to play all the required games. Everything else Wacky is working fine & is Great Fun Thank You!!
