Hi Busy Bee,

We've had the clay mystery task twice, it's 15 clay by race's end; for a 15-clay regular task, it's worth 106 points & 13 tokens.

I've posted a complete list of all the medieval mystery tasks we did on the "New Mystery Tasks" thread started by Nevada.

I've been brave and done two of the ? tasks. The first was 21 heli orders.... not too bad. But the second was 16 bananas!!!!!! Two trips will take me 11 hours!
Will be very wary of taking another one.

always have two boats ready with banana's and two with fish, then you'll be fine to pick the ?task

I've done LOTS of these tasks. They only give you tasks you VAN do at your level, whatever it is. All of mine have been pretty easy and worth 135 points

I have taken a few ? tasks but try to avoid them. A normal 135 zoo task is 11; a ? zoo task is 9. That is OK if you saved 8 zoo tasks before regatta started. My sister had a 15-hour growing ? task at the beginning of the race. We both slowed down to stay in league and did not try to be in top 3. A normal 135 smelting task is 7 (game wants you to spend 4 to finish 7th ingot); ? ingot task is 6. Helicopter, house of luck or feed the animal ? tasks are shorter than a normal 135. If you take a 135 manufacturing task, you can finish 8 items and keep in holding area before you take the task; ? manufacturing tasks you have no prep time and might have a full queue of other items. I wish they would eliminate the ? tasks. I have asked in the game if any of the developers actually play. Regatta takes planning and preparation. Eliminate ? tasks. It was a bad idea.

This week's mysteries were tough ones. I got 3, yes, 3 zoo tasks back to back to back!!!! The first one was fine because I had the orders ready. But the other 2 took me 24 hours each!!! It is ridiculous that it takes 3 hours for an orders to appear! I'll be darned if I will pay tcash to hurry them!

[Zimbelstern]

Hm, Jane, it seems as if also the mysteries depend on your level. I had a ? Zoo task with „only“ 8 baskets and thought, o, how nice, I can do them in one go. I‘m level 81 and you?

I love the ? tasks, but I‘m not racing to win, but just for fun.

I had a mystery task pop up yesterday for 8 blue sweaters.

Oh how lovely, right?

Wrong.

I had 8 coats in my factory, and 7 queued below.

They take 1:30 each to make, for a total of 10:30.

Then sweaters take 1:07 to make, 8:56 minutes for a total time of 19:26.

The task had 18:59 minutes on the clock.

Now, I would have begrudgingly paid to speed the last sweater to get it done, however, I’d unfortunately picked this task up first thing in the morning, meaning the end time was around 1:30am, and there was no way I was paying out to speed enough stuff to get it done before I fell asleep and failed it anyway, so, I trashed it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thank you for everyone being so open. I thought some people might object to giving away such information.

I'm just dumping at the moment so the rest of team across the pond have a selection of 135's.

However, with having 3 'send boats to X ' islands AND a salmon task we are rather overloaded with shipping tasks.

Personally I haven't upgraded any of my islands yet so think I'll be steering clear. Even if I was to do the send boats to Fihermans island I would still only end up with 4 cargoes of fish as the others would already have been emptied.

Sushi or fried fish anyone.

Ruth, after upgrading most-needed manufacturing, trains and ships are VERY important to upgrade. All my islands are upgraded to -50% time with additional upgrades for increasing chances of receiving rare items like olives. Without upgraded islands, you want to steer clear of ? tasks.
