It's after midday here, Tuesday 12 Nov, and I still haven't had any wish stones from Orville. He's meant to be popping one out every hour for Super Tuesday.

Yay! You're back. What was the end result - fixed game or reset with gems? I'd given you up for lost and am awfully glad to see I was mistaken.

None here either. We are in the same time zone.

Hey Woz. Yep, I'm back. I posted last week or so, in the thread about 'anyone recover from a corrupt save'. I got my game back mostly where I left off - but I now have one adventure balloon that won't work and I can't sell - it just takes up space. Apart from that, I'm happy to be back where I am.

BTW - Your 'lobotomising' comment was very 'white-knightish' ! and priceless !

Haven't received any wish stones either.

I just got my first stone now with the daily bonus of 200 coins (here it's 8:00 AM), but I haven't received stones since 0:00 AM, however I have the shrines half price since 0:00.

Perhaps the stones bonus is activated with the daily bonus....

Neither orville nor my earth shrine popped any wish stones today at all. I think the whole thing was bugged somehow

It's a tech day for me...

My son has Hugo, and Hugo predicted the element of the day for today would be Earth, but it is Tech for me too. (My son hasn't checked yet) The only other time Hugo predicted incorrectly was when my son's island had not yet updated, but, as far as I can tell, he has all of the latest updates.

I seem to be getting the stones no problem here.

Yes, Hugo said today would be Earth, but it's definitely Tech. So much for the all-knowing Hugo. No wish stones from Orville yet today (8:30 EST), but the shrine offer came through first thing.

No stones for me either, it appears...

None for me, either. Shrine offer is there (can't decide if I want to buy any or not, though), and tech is the element, and Orville is taunting me with silence and closed pockets... lol.

Finally got my first stone from Orville today (9:45 EST). Let's see if it continues.

I am glad you posted this because I thought I was crazy. I preped for an earth day and then this morning it was tech. I had a WTF moment.

But then I remembered there was a patch yesterday. They must have changed the element during the patch.

I thought I had been wrong, as I'm a bit older, I thought I was senile......
Regarding the stones, since I gave the first stone, I get one every hour, with currency daily bonus.

No stones for me either

I have yet to get any stones. My daily coin bonus usually comes in the evening, so if I have to wait until then, I won't be getting many stones.

As for the element of the day, I time traveled to today last week and saw that it was Earth. I kept my last Pirate Grotto quest for Birthday Bash and was going to send him off early yesterday so that I would get an element of the day bonus and have the Earth shrine (which I don't have any of) for the day. I had forgotten to send him, but last night I noticed that Hugo was saying Tech and not Earth. I figured the time travel was inaccurate, but maybe they did change it with the update. The update came really early, for me, yesterday, so it was way before I checked Hugo.

My wife and daughter have been getting wish stones, but none for me.

Yeah it's werid because I thought I wasn't getting a wish stone until I tapped on the coin, then the wish stone appeared. I do know this event is not tied to the date on your device, just FYI. Somehow the event is triggered and it'll probably work for 24 hrs now (even with time traveling)

I haven't gotten wish stones from Oriville today but my son got a wish stone with the daily coins.
I didn't check Hugo until last night before bed and it said Yech, but I hadn't checked earlier in the day.

It was definately still earth, i got bonuses to my moss stash during the day.

no stones for me all day almsot 7pm here

Those of you not getting a stone when hitting Oriville's hourly coin, are you connected through wifi? Have you tried to close the application and opening the game again? The way the devs run some of the special days (like the attack of the bat day) is by triggering the event only during the proper day regardless of whether or not you time travel in the future or past. Not sure exactly how they do it but once the day is over, they remove the event (some how) and you can't access it even if you time travel. So if you are saying you are not getting the stone that tells me somehow you are not connecting to online in some way which I assume is what triggers it.

It has nothing to do with being online. I was on cellular data most of the day, but then came home to wi-fi. I didn't see it until I got the daily coin and after I left the house, again. It seems to not take affect until the daily coin time is ready.

Orville wasn't giving an hourly coin for most of the day for me. He is now, though...

I have to say that after I've liberated 8 islands and beautified them you'd think that Orville would loosen the old purse strings past the 200 mark. I mean, come on gofer how many times I gotta get all Rambo on some sheeps and trolls before I get a decent pay day! Just sayin.

Did they introduce a new element when I wasn't looking? Or was sklndrmommy trying to multitask while typing again?

Oops! I don't think I can even blame that on autocorrect. No new elements, I just wasn't proof reading...
I have been getting coins and a wish stone from Oriville now but there is nothing to prompt a tap. I just tried tapping on him and got the reward.

Just got my first coin and wish stone from orville on a wed! Strange

I got wish stones form Orville all day yesterday, and am still getting them today. Am now updating to the latest version though, so I expect it will stop.

My son never did get any stones - and I did try tapping without the prompt, just in case, but that did nothing.

I got the first wish stone last night and am still getting them. I originally thought it was possible that it was based on 24 hours after you first get the coin, or it's possible that it just got left in a little longer than it should have.

I'm going for the latter, now, as I just checked and only got a coin...no wish stone.

Not sure why it couldn't have been coded like the hourly gem.

I got my first at 1pm yesterday and it stopped at 8 am today. Got a few out of the deal, but pretty glitchy
