Eggxiting.
That's what I'm sure you mean to say.

Just waiting for the 24 hour tasks to complete as I don't have 36 doughnuts to waste.

I believe the gold eggs are rarer because they have the better prizes.

Prizes are much harder to get. The boxes randomly give out a prize. It is like having 3 of those horrible wheels from Valentines day.

A word of fricking warning.

When whacking bunnies, you might come across baskets which allow you to swap your blue eggs for your friends pink eggs (or vice-versa). Don't do it! I just went to a town and just by clicking their basket once, I lost most of my pink eggs and got virtually no blue ones in return. It's a massive rip-off.

I don't know if I'm going to end up liking this update. Getting the good prizes just seems far to difficult. It's going to take a very long time to collect the needed 500 eggs, and even then you have to go through a lucky dip in order to get any of the good stuff, and that's not even going into the bloody gold egg prizes!

Presumably there will come a point where you have all the process you can get with blue are red and would willingly exchange 10,000 blue for a few gold

If I have a blue basket.

It's more like tasering bunnies!!

Is it just me or are they now giving FP for anyone who visits your town, rather than just those for cleaning Moe's, the school & the town hall?

Just got 100 gold eggs in my first pink egg box.

Not sure of that's good or bad to be honest.

Yeah, that's happening for me too!

Its actually happened at a really convenient time for me, because just two days ago I started working on the 5000 points needed for Stampy. With the event going on, I'm getting a lot more visits than I would usually get, and I'm visiting more towns myself, so hopefully I'll get him sooner rather than later.

I have 2 in my town, swapped some eggs in your basket just for the fun of it.

I didn't know anything about these until I read this thread, I have just found 3 blue baskets in my inventory!

I'm not very excited by this update, seems like a lot of work for not very exciting prizes (now if the Crazy Cat Lady had been a prize rather than a premium item, that would be more interesting!). So far I'm getting loads of blue eggs, hardly any pink and no gold (although my first blue egg prize was 100 gold eggs). Even the Valentine's Wheel wasn't this bad! And the thing with the Easter fences is just ridiculous if you ask me.

Always looking for more friends to add, I think I need a clear out of old ones as it seems quite a few of them have stopped playing. My username is the same as my forum name

I have a red and blue basket now.

It's strange that they go in to your inventory. I think in 20 days time we'll all have all the blue and pink items and be desperate for baskets.

As such I like the joke about the fences.

I don't understand. I clicked on my red basket. I got like 300 red eggs and it disappeared.

And there are some eggs in my blue basket.

I don't like this update, it's too confusing with the different baskets and the system is just too tedious, 500 eggs seems too high and it's a lot of collecting and so far the prize has been an Easter fence! Seriously?

It's clear it's going to be nearly impossible to collect the decent prizes from this event unless you spend loads of donuts?

its great fun collecting eggs and tazing bunnies...but agree with points raised above

- the update seems to have come a bit late..easter is this weekend - nobody cares after that
- why did we have to wait 24 hours for homer etc to get ready for whacking day first? (what was the point)
- it is impossible to get any gold eggs
- there are too many options in each colour - and clearly most you wont get
- casual players dont understand the basket thing as hardly any of my friends have placed a basket(s) in their towns
- eggs vanish when you swap them in baskets and it makes no sense
- why is Krustyland full of bunnies that you can't zap?

If anyone wants to add me I am spikeyrobert

I am glad about the update to allow Friend Points on every interaction, that never made much sense that it was just for graffiti to begin with!

This Easter update seems a bit sloppy to be honest. They have made it so complex that it's just passing me by. I'm zapping rabbits but whenever a speech bubble for a character comes up I'm just ignoring it as I'm not really interested. The prizes seem almost out of reach as they require so many eggs, so many visits etc. My first blue egg prize was 100 golden eggs, essentially nothing as I would rather have had something tangible. Now I get the impression I will get nothing but golden eggs and in the end I'll win some awful topiary from the golden egg box. The basket thing is totally confusing to me and seems a total waste of time.

I agree about preparing for whacking day...it's not even a whacking day event, that whole thing seemed pointless.

Oh and 50 fence sections for 15 donuts...why? Why would I waste so much space on my map with 50 fence segments that I don't even want? What can I even buy with 15 donuts (it would give me a total of 18)? Bizarre bonus prize if you ask me!

All I want is a tangible prize that ISNT a fence. I was excited today to open my first pink box and I got 300 gold eggs, which meant I could open my first gold box.. I was hopeful I would get something half decent. Nope. I got two pastel fences. Seriously so far all I've received are either fences or gold eggs. I'm fed up with this event already.. But I really want some of the good prizes!
