Btw, I just realized recently that the ROOF section (of Chocolate House Renovation) will take off all curtain you have when you're still new in the story. Means, using the Chocolate roof, all special rooms on 2nd floor will be visible, yaay ^o^

The prize for 25 tokens is the Flower Hair Accessory...which I've already bought. OTL

I thought these avatar mission items you get are supposed to be random?

Anyway, the second free-spin time is listed as 11:30-13, again looking like Pacific time. It wasn't available an hour ago.

@yu_eriyama: Nice, now we know what section to concentrate on first!

The prize for 5 tokens seems to be random because I didn't know what it was until I opened it, but for the other two prizes the gacha page told me what they were, so I'm assuming that means they're fixed prizes. Has anyone else gotten far enough with the gacha to double-check this?

@Razareil The mission items in the event aren't random. Each clothing item is designated to a different prince. As for the tokens & the items that they award, I received the same ones that Porphyra mentioned. So, I'm assuming that those are set as well.

::@Solenyx: Have you been spending money, or do you have some playing strategies you could share? *puppy-dog eyes*::

I'm such a sucker for the puppy-dog eyes. Hehe. I don't usually spend money unless I'm at the end of an event & only if I can't finish the story w/o it, or if I'm interested in keeping my rank for a certain prize. The reason I finish the prince stories fast is b/c I have a lot of princess mates and during events, I tend to greet them all faithfully three times a day. Per each round of greeting I make roughly 16,000 GP. With 32 spins (@500 GP), I can get anywhere from 300 to 1800 LF. So 900-5400 in total (from greeting), per day.

*Note: I didn't buy the mate tickets. I just played the Mushroom Gacha when it was available and went from around 30+ mates to near 800. It gave out mate tickets much like the closet space we're getting now.

Also, like Sandymaxy has said, choosing event mates is important. Ideally you'd want to pair with someone in the top 30 since those people are more competitive and will most likely complete the event a lot sooner. Take note after an event to see who they are & remember to invite them in the next event.

Before you start an event, you should save up as much GP as possible. Then when it starts, play the event gacha and party alone, if you can, for LF. I can't speak for the others, but I don't invite/accept mates who have zero LF, even at the beginning. Unless you know the other princess, it's not a good idea to invite/accept as you may get stuck with someone who doesn't play the whole way through. I usually invite princesses who I have played events w/before and those with whom I talk with a lot on the message boards. If I have space left, I will generally look for mates who already have a good amount of LF, are trying hard, and will complete the event. I hope this helps. =)

Update!:: Completing 3 princes - Closet(3); 4 princes - Princess Training: Violin(RF increase 3,000); 5 princes - Royal Medal(5).

@Solenyx : woww....what is your secret to greet all of your mates three times a day? Once a day is already a big achievement for me   Btw, I think the rewards for completetion 3 - 5 routes are the same with the previous event (New Year Event)

[Solenyx]

@Marie: I believe you're right. I honestly couldn't remember all of the rewards from the previous event, so I assumed some were different. =) I usually greet by PC. A full round of greeting takes approx. 2 hours. My work allows me to travel for a few months, then work from home for another few months. When I'm home, I have the time to be able to play and work at the same time.

In the secret happy ending for Keith's route, choose text him :)

[OtomeBabe]

@Solenyx : whaattt?? only 2 hours? Oh you're so fast!  I greet by PC too but it takes way longer than you *sigh*

[Razareil]

Yeah, that's what I was referring to. Ugh, I can understand if it were random, but I don't know why they'd be trying to be so secretive about it if the prizes are fixed. That way, PEOPLE COULD ACTUALLY PLAN THE ROUTE ORDER THEY TAKE VOLTAGE I HATE YOU SO MUCH RIGHT NOW.

Thanks for answering my question! Between you and sandymaxy, the take-away message seems to be that in order to do well at events, the best tactic is to have joined the game months/years ago. Oh well. I've definitely been paying more attention to the ... quality(?) (gah, that sounds so stuck-up! D: ) of my event mates, though! Valentine's is going pretty well; I'm definitely on track to finish with time to spare as long as lack of cruz doesn't trip me up, but :offtopic: the MSB event is bleeding me dry what with each "fight" giving out half the amount of "money" as in BMP (wtf?), and I am praying so damn hard for more Lucky 24.

I am half-considering just quitting trying to get through the normal game/main story entirely and saving everything up for events. Do they ever let up?

@Marie: Copy-paste? (Except for those who've said something you want to respond separately to.)

[OtomeBabe]

@Razareil : Oh I do copy-paste greetings....

*jaw drops, hits the floor, and bounces a few times*

The third free-spin time is also delayed. I'll check back in an hour.

[Solenyx]

@Marie: I greet the friends on my message board 1st. The rest are copy & paste. I can greet pretty fast, but my hands give up on me after I'm done.  

@Razareil: I didn't start the game until the end of November 12'. I think this game (English version) came out in July/August of last year, but don't quote me on that. So I missed out on the first 3 Secret Vacation events, the Halloween event, Roberto's b-day, and probably more. Don't give up! This game isn't easy for those that are just starting & wanting to complete everything. IMO I think Gree has gotten greedier. Their new way of getting a completion for events is a little bit more difficult than past events. At least I think so. ::shrugs:: Unfortunately for events, you have to be picky if you want a completion. Now that Gree is on a roll, I don't see them letting up on events anytime soon. We've still got Keith's b-day event at the end of Feb (If it happens) and the White Day event at the beginning of March. /sigh
I've kinda let go of the thought of ever finishing anything on MSB. Ender & trust are a bit too hard for me to acquire as fast as I can on BMP.  

[StarRainbow2]

I only joined on December last year when they opened it up on PC (I really wish they opened MSB on PC so I could play it) and I agree that picking people who are in the top thirty or are regular mates is a good way to go since they do seem to play and want to complete. I noticed though that you do t have to really be picky with the B-day events (at least I don't think so since I've only played Josh's Bday) since it's only one guy so the LF doesn't go into the 30s( u less you replay again).

I do think that Gree was gotten a bit greedier, I know they need to make money and I don't mi d giving them money, it just seems with all these back to back events sometimes it just gets stressful. Though I haven't spent real money on an event yet, with the exception of a set of LP to complete Edward's Christmas story, but that was because I wanted to see what happened next, his story really got to me.

Not going to lie, I wish they had more mate ticket (i need to wait until i finish all these events to get my next increase since I'm on that 36,000 cruz mission right now) in gacha's or storage space (especially storage space), both would be really helpful right now.

[Razareil]

Got a little sidetracked. Just popping in to report that the third free-spin time says 18-20, again looking like Pacific. Upshot: all of these are delayed an hour, so I hope the first post is updated! Gotta go.

[Sorcha]

Okay, so I'm not imagining that MSB is harder? It's just killing me.
