    ...this doesn't make one eager to try the event.

    Has anyone tried using fireworks sold by other merchants beside Walter?

    @lolpopper, what do you mean by 'old 10th birthday [firework]'? o,o?

    This event started out fun, but now they reduced the chances of getting higher than 17cm. the rate is so low that there may as well not even be an event

    Getting the game up was more important though. it's just a bit disappointing :(

    ok so the rates weren't actually nerfed. apparently the chances of getting higher than 17cm are really low after midnight, and once noon hits, the chance of hitting over 17 cm goes higher and higher up until midnight PST. It wasn't explained on the event page so a lot of people including me got confused why we used like 50 fireworks and got no box. lol .... anyways sorry if I spread misinformation

    At first I thought you were talking about in-game time. This makes so much more sense.

    "Note: Height varies throughout the day. After midnight (Pacific Standard Time), fireworks tend to shoot up to 4-5 m. Later in the day (afternoon Pacific Time), fireworks shoot higher more frequently, especially as it gets closer to midnight, when height will drop back down." -From Wiki.

    It's pretty much a cap once midnight comes.
