These are along my thoughts on all the complaining about the SUPER Challenges; they are extra challenges for those who want to go after the bigger prizes; if you skip them, you still have all the same challenges and reward oppurtunities that every gem challenge offers. If you want to go after the bigger prizes, of course the requirements would be higher – why would they offer bigger rewards for the same effort?

Not toward OP, but on the forums in general regarding the super challenges, it is disheartening to see how many people think that if they don't want something, no one should be able to have it.

But isn't the Gem Challenge supposed to be for everyone that plays YO- this challenge is for only those that can afford to buy Yo cash items! This last challenge is exactly that !!! In the past we could put coin items in and they would count!

Yes, the rules changed for the Super Challenges! Other challenges you could use other items you had in your inventory, but now they are DEMANDED ITEMS and I am not spending 27YC on DEMANDED ITEMS that I neither want or like and yes they are DEMANDED ITEMS, as there is no other choice!

Other than FOMO, you lose nothing by letting other people have the chance to enter if they want to.

Personally, I didn't have to buy any new YC items for this decor challenge. I had leftovers that I had already purchased because I liked this theme, and I "borrowed" one item from a room I had already decorated.

All this hate and wanting the challenge to go away just because you don't want to do it is really disheartening to see.

So other peoples "opinions" upset you so much that it ruins your gem event?
People dislike the new challenge costing yocash and they are just voicing that. That's not HATE as you call it. No one ever said you could not do it either. Have fun if it is for you, no one is stopping you.

Therefore, yes I was being forced to use my YC in order to be able to submit. The only other option for me was not to submit/enter.
