I liked the event....until I realized I was still working on getting 500 eggs four days later. Then I realized just how long and tedious it was. Even with the lag and constant freezing the zOMG event was actually fun. Perhaps I got some sense of satisfaction from "egg stealing" from people who thought camping out was easier. Skittles world just pissed me off, that was not an obstacle course. It was a "lets see how long we can piss you off before you just quit and close the window" course. Getting knocked out by things you didn't even touch and then waiting what feels like 20 seconds just to start back at the beginning. Who the hell ever was told to restart an obstacle course if they ever touch anything? O.o
I did manage to get the 500 eggs, but, yeah, that was friggin' tedious. It's one thing to make people work for the items, but it's another thing to torture them. And that was just torturous. (The truly sad part is, I only did it because of my collector mentality; I don't particularly like the slippers, but I'm not going to sell them, either. I suck.)
And the obstacle course is... ugh. I can get all 100 Skittles, but not in under 2:25 (at this point, I'm not even going to bother trying any more), so I just bought the Easter Scarf from the Marketplace. (Figures, though; that's probably the nicest Easter item this year, too. Well, maybe Basketh'Loo; that one's pretty amusing.)

I will say that the work they put into it was fabulous. Even though the storyline isn't as much as other Christmas or Halloween events, all the detail and items are right up that ally (or is it alley, dammit I hate those two words).
Alley. "Ally" refers to a partner or associate. (Just to be nitpicky, and because you brought it up. wink )
The whole problem with the 500 eggs is it wasn't even work. The skittles event took more work than the main event. The 500 eggs was just plain boring and tedious, especially when you realized you were still working on it three days later and in my case kept seeing eggs whenever you close your eyes.
They say there's a glitch where you can run underneath all the rocks. The clock should then stop and then you can go back and collect the skittles. I don't know if it works, if it did work or if it does work now though.
I can't figure out what the heck to do with the items. The slippers are in one of the most obscure colors on this site. Basket'loo is just crazy to work with. The only thing that match Sundae's Sweets is the V-Day chocolate skin, and the "slut bunny" (can't remember it's name), the only cash shop item I liked enough to buy with gold was Fuseling, which I'm having difficulty figuring out what to do with (all my brown items on a mule) and the list goes on. They're lovely items, but what in the world do I do with them! xd I agree, the scarves hands down are the best items this time around.
Yay! Thank you! I seriously could never figure out/remember the difference between those two words. Even with a dictionary. *hangs head*
