Crazy mode for a community challenge? There then gone

[brian2cst]

Couple of days ago I started the game and the community challenge meter was out and when I checked it had "Complete Crazy Mode in Garden Ops" as the challenge.  It required 225,000 to get all the chests and at the time there was only 2 showing as having completed it.  When I did a quest and came back the whole thing was no longer out as though there was no community challenge.  Anyone else have this to happen?

I think the community challenge was accidentally sent out early, it should be up on Nov. 16.

I see that it was up for a short while as another post "Crazy Event" was posted about the same thing.  I hadn't read that post until after posting this one.

The portal is officially live now and the number is exactly the same, but the progress is moving very slowly, only 7K out of 225K.

Probably this won't reach the special item. Let see.

Do you have to win the whole 10 rounds to be qualified? I thought I was reading that each "completed round" counted towards it. I completed up to round 9, but was not able to beat 10. I think if it is required to win an entire game of crazy that many times for the community, we will definitely not make it. Just wondering if I miss understood, or if there is a glitch of some kind. Thanks

Yes, you have to make it out in the RV or blimp to rack up a contribution.

This challenge is ridiculous on several levels.  There's no way that even the blue chest will be opened.  75K would have been a reasonable goal for the red chest.

@pandareno1999 So true. I’m used to the high stakes of community challenges. This one is definitely up there.

It goes to show, EA/PopCap have not done their metrics study.

There is no way that these numbers are attainable for this challenge.

Completely agree the bar was set way too high, I checked this morning and was at 30K.
