In trying to get the GE items if you're just going to let us buy them..There's really no point to the GE anymore at all.Just give us a deal like this and do away with the contest .

Yeah if they bring new gem items into deals then whats point gambling to get them in gems

I agree!

Another thing where's the final room contest where we were getting an exclusive item for doing it..Oh that's right in a money grab . That teal yober we would have got for decorating the gem room.

I like the addition of the gem room contest; to skip over it seems silly -- when there were so many amazing designs and it was so enjoyable to not only take part in but to watch others enjoying themselves as well love art, all art and all creative things; lets hope they bring it back --- I didnt get the dialing for dollars pop up either, why would I give them cash when all I had to do was fill the bar and cash in my gems?

I can understand if you lost out on something and really want it but 29.99 for an exclusive item that we were getting for free for doing something we liked.They always mess up the enjoyable stuff just to make money.I can tell you there's no way I'd spend 29.99 for an exclusive item that doesn't involve yc in it.

Yeah, this is absurd. It's not even a deal as there's no currency in it. It's literally paying absurd amounts of real money for gem prizes and the $29.99 for that silly cloud yober is beyond the pale.

And you're right; I didn't even notice we don't have the final room entry here this time. Or is that posted when the final challenge results are in or after the couple days after that? I can't remember anymore. Either way, this is a load of bs.

I think the pop up came up before it ended because I always did mine and let it sit for a few days before the actual GE ended

that pop up took a while to appear and my reaction was to laugh
I sold most of those items in AH some for hardly anything as no one wanted them, especially the cloud maybe got a whole 5000 coins for that
got a little more for the flamingo ride but the cloud naaa could hardly give it away
So anyone with any brains would have one or three of them already via AH or actually playing GE

Course there are possibly a few who just don't bother playing GE or its too much to spend 5k in AH or they don't know how to ask in wishlist and they're the ones who will have whined that they want those items ones with more actual real $$ than sense ones that don't read the pop up just click buy

If the items had been the hard to get items like the Purple Ravin outfit or the male hair for the $29.99 I'd understand but the cloud that's laughable

edit: for the 29.99 you get to choose 10 items its not just the cloud ... still a rip off as all the items are in ( or have been in ) AH for coins

On the one hand, I appreciate the chance to get an item that I may have really wanted, but that may not have shown up in the auction house at a price I could afford. On the other hand, the cost is way too high, so I'll give it a pass. You can't even purchase an entire outfit at a reasonable price. So many things wrong with this...

As far as the gem room contest, I never entered. What I would like to see is, if we must have Challenges 9 & 10, they should be using items from the event. Why not do an event-centered outfit and room? After the previous eight challenges, most participants should have enough items to use.
