I've been able to get all the old stuff that's been released, so far. Still hoping the Yes Guy and the Elf Homes will be released before the event is over, I expected them to be available on or shortly after New Year's Day,  I even had my tablet with me on New Year's Eve just in case. I've liked the Event, in general, just wish I'd maybe bought one more Boatload of Donuts during the 30% Bonus Sale and been able to buy some more of the Snowball II Snowcat decorations while I could (not only the best value, at only 20 Donuts for 2.00%, but very space efficient at only ONE SQUARE!!!). As it was I wound up with 365 of the Snowcats (one for each day of the year ;-) and got my Payout Bonus over 2,000 PERCENT (currently at 2132.03%)!!! I will eventually get my Payout Bonus to 2150% (or 2250 total) and this will mean triple conversion of Cash to XP!

I've been able to play just fine until recently, the server connection problems the past few days have been very frustrating. I usually try a half dozen times and give up to try again in 30 minutes or so. It's not the end of the world, but I have been late for some things in the game a few times because of not being able to connect. I know the issue is not at my end as I've done diagnostics several times when the game failed to connect (but I had no trouble connecting with my internet browser and my speed test/wi-fi app shows all is well). I hope they fix this soon as it may cause some to give up on the game entirely.

I keep checking the store every day, in case they do finally add some new stuff, but nothing since the end of last year. There's a week left in this Event, so I still hold out hope of seeing the remaining items that are listed in the Event page but have not been in the store yet (then again, we were supposed to have The Raven available during the Treehouse of Horror XXV Event but it never showed, either on it's own or in a bundle, and I really wanted him).
