'Twas good while it lasted... Wish we could opt out of them, once you click, I don't want to participate, the icon would disappear and not take up screen space

I did the challenge and they did go away. Now will they stay away is the question.

I'm sure you would enjoy it. You will get all the exclusives like usual Adeline congrats

If I want them, I have to pay for them just like everyone else. Take a look at what was presented today and you tell me how much that stuff is worth. Then figure out how much it would cost to open the boxes to get them. And there is the time required to do everything to play. I have thoroughly enjoyed having some time off.

the icon appears every day during the gem event then disappears once you participate or click on it. YES it comes back every day the challenge is going on.... not a big deal and not really a distraction just click on it and it goes away

They will never stop!!

I have a question, and I'm not trying to be snarky at all.

Why does everyone say it's a money drain and costs so much? I haven't spent a dime of my real money on the GEs and don't spend an excessive amount of coins on them either. I know some people are all about collecting every item in the chests, but I just get whatever I get and don't worry about the stuff I don't get. I've gotten some fun stuff!

As far as the icons, to me it is no different than the daily cash deal icons they put up that i quickly click through and x out of to clear off my screen when I log on. I don't purchase any of them and they are gone within seconds without affecting my game play. Do I wish they weren't there every day because I am completely uninterested in spending my real life money? Sure! But it doesn't take anything for me to clear them off and move on.

I guess I just don't understand how it is such a big problem/nuisance for some people

This was meant to be a bit tongue in cheek. I am one of those who likes to take the items and do a whole house - not just a room so I tend to spend a lot to get them all. I also find I tend to spend cash when I actually do the decorating of the room. It really does add up and then there is the whole thing about voting being so time consuming and the frustration of seeing some of the rooms.

Locking items inside a gambling event and essentially forcing players to spend a lot of time dedicated to this event just for a *chance* to win the exclusive themes within the event is unfair, expensive, time-consuming, and turns the game into a chore to play rather than something to do for enjoyment. Instead of just releasing the items in-store where not only all players will have access to them but will also become big sellers for BVG and earn them more $ from satisfied decorators, they trap these items inside this gambling event. We take part in the event to win these items because the severe price jacking in the buy-sell community has made it near impossible for the average player to afford some of the items that come out in the events.

The gem event is unfair to all players. Just release those items in-store, BVG! "Exclusive" items that not everybody has fair access to just alienates players. Make your customers and players happy and stop with the gem events.
