Durtucken and Giblets Event

[Assault and Flattery]

Hey guys,


I wanted to explain the upcoming Durtucken and Giblets event, as it’s a little different from the traditional leaderboard structure. When you open a Durtucken, you have a chance at getting a Chicken Core, an Inner Duck, Giblets, or other prizes. If you get a Chicken Core or Inner Duck (which is set up in the same way a crate is) you have a chance of getting a Durtucken, an Inner Duck (if you’re opening a Chicken Core) a Chicken Core (if you’re opening an Inner Duck), Giblets, or other prizes.

Please note: If you receive an Inner Duck or Chicken Core, these will appear in your inventory under "Special" as they are technically crates.

So, an example scenario could go like this:


Open Durtucken
Receive Chicken Core
Open Chicken Core
Receive Durtucken (!)
Open Durtucken
Receive Giblets


or just:


Open Durtucken
Receive Giblets


Here is a really great drawing of our development process for this event:

To complete Thanksgiving: The Reckoning, you have to collect all of the items. There are 3 in each animal -
Durtucken contains the Auto Baster, Military Chef, and Elemental Cook
Chicken Core contains the Magical Carver, Turkey Tenderizer, and Pudding Golem
Inner Duck contains the Demon Prep Cook, Auto Roaster, and Cranberry Ooze.

If you collect all of these, you receive the Turskeleton.

I hope that makes sense! If you have any other questions, please let me know. Happy feasting ,,^. .^,,

To answer your question, yes...I'm confused

Jesus Christ...

I think I'll just quietly abstain from this event, then. While as a culinary plate, a Turduckin is downright amazing, it doesn't translate over well to what you all envisioned...

EDIT - Thanks for the info though. It is a bit of a let down knowing that we can spend gems on an open, receive one of those inner items, and then end up right back with another box to open...

Thank you for the info. It's nice to get this before the event. Thanks again!

No problem - I'm pretty sure it's not actually that confusing once you start playing. I hope you all enjoy my hand turkey.

I have to admit, I do like the hand turkey.

This is probably the Achilles's heel of the event and a reason players will hate lockbox events if it continues to be a trend. Gem spending is supposed to guarantee a 100% chance of getting something, not ending back up at square 1 which is the equivalent of a gold open "sorry" message.

I just want to know who drew the hand turkey.

Sorry for any confusion - you are still guaranteed something by using the gem opening, it just might take a few more clicks. If in this case you get a Duck or Chicken, and then go back to a Durtucken, you still receive an item rather than a "sorry" message.

That was me - it's my right hand.

A&F, you DO understand that a few extra clicks, simply to receive another durtucken is the same effect as getting nothing at all, right? Before the event even started, I had 120+ of them... getting the runaround like that is an Achilles's Heel, no ifs ands or buts about it. Poor design part of what would otherwise be a nifty, if still entirely too complex, system.

Exactly as Lys says, it's the equivalent of a "sorry" message. You don't actually get anything except your Durtucken back which is no prize at all and a pure robbery of gems.

I don't share Lys's aversion to the complexity of it, I like that part, but using gems to just receive a Durtucken in the end is the equivalent of a "Tap here to deduct 20 gems" button.

Things like this are one of the reasons I quit buying gems and you better believe that if I hadn't stopped, I would have after seeing this.

So basically spend cash to get another box which gives u a random item, which in turn could be crap or great, didn't realize that Ka was now a casino.

[stooper]

Further more the current supplies offer is cheep ass from gree in my eyes, in last ones you had gems, nice item, plus chance items, now all just chance items. No way am I even tempted getting one
