Cold Runnings (18/01/26)

OVERVIEW Promotion DESCRIPTION Solo Events are events in which participants race against the clock and complete various tasks to win numerous prizes. INFORMATION Started 26 January 2018 Ended 5 February 2018 Duration 10 Days Type Solo Tiers 10 Grand Prize  Snow Sport Dragon Occasion 2018 Winter Olympics

Solo Events are limited-time competitions in which each Trainer participates individually. They are based on completing several tiers, each having three set goals with different requirements, and a prize awarded upon completing each tier.

Mechanics

Each tier has several items that must be collected. Items are each limited to a set number per a given timeframe, with a cooldown period needed before collecting more. Whenever items are received, a notification appears in the middle of the screen. If all available items for that period are already collected, the notification indicates how much time is left until the next can be collected. Each individual item can also be bought in exchange for Gems, by pressing the   /Item   button under the item.

Rewards & Timetable

The amount of Food and Gold rewarded depends on the Trainer's Level. See Level Modifier for more information.

Requirements

An explanation of the requirements for an item can be seen by tapping on the i button. Item collection has a base pool from which item collection is taken. The pool consists of the maximum number of items that can ever be collected at one time. Each tier begins with the base pool being available for collection. From that point, each item has an internal cooldown time until the next item can be obtained. The cooldown time is set for individual item collection up to the maximum accumulatively. This means that items can be collected at a rate of 1 per cooldown time or collect total pool once time has been exceeded for the pool without collecting any items. The cooldown times are also visible by two methods in-game. The first method is seen briefly on a notification upon collecting the last item available in a pool. The second method is by viewing the event screen where times for next available collection are shown under each item required.

Example

There are two methods for collecting items. For instance, if one had a required task of collecting 20 Food and the cooldown was 1 minute with a pool of 10, one could collect 10 at the beginning of the tier and then:

• 1 item every 1 minute OR
• 10 items every 10 minutes. By figuring out and waiting total pool time before collecting, the whole pool will become available for collection. [1 minute (cooldown) x 10 (pool)= 10 minutes]

The Recommended column lists the quickest way to fulfill the requirements. The item for each tier which takes the longest time to complete has the Total Pool Cooldown section highlighted with a yellow background. Being the item responsible for the minimum completion time of their tier, it is recommended that Trainers focus on these times.
