Which clearly shows their intent. Anyone who cares about players' satisfaction would have asked them to solve three encounters first, and complete a province afterwards (not the other way around).
Of course Inno is entitled to make any decisions they want - it's their game. But if they continue to antagonize players it will be very easy for a competitor to advertize its own game by saying it offers the same stuff as Inno, except for the mistreatment.

Yeah, it's awesome when it takes three days to scout a province. It's great for my little cities but royally sucks for my main city. Also, what are the set buildings that are bonuses in the silver and gold? I've not heard of them.

It was a mini-event (a small number of quests and no event currency) of the past, one of the earlier uses of set buildings (this set only containing two buildings).

@Moho, if you're looking for a basic overview, idavis has a video for how to play this event: Mama Juul's Fusion Feast
He also did one for last year's merge event, which had the same mechanics, but different visuals. I feel like it actually explained things a little bit better than the one for this event: A Gateway to the Past - 2022

Thank you for your recommendations. I've just watched them both. I didn't participate in the previous event involving a merging game because I was absent from Elvenar for about 4 months.
One of my Season daily tasks today was to prepare an order for a customer in the event. This is how I noticed the Daily Prize was a building I could use. My city can handle the Tournament both militarily and through catering. I have accumulated a lot of military instants and military buildings, so I think I could use some buildings that produce goods too. The Simmering Soup building looked like something I could benefit from. So I tried to get it.
I was not able to obtain the Daily Prize in my first city, and I did my best. On the other hand, I was happy to get the first artifact for the event main building, which I want to keep for its military production. I'm pretty sure I did not play this very well, but I don't think I played it very badly either. It took me about 400 event currency to reach the milestone that gave me the artifact, which happened in my next two cities as well. However, I was able to secure one Daily Prize in each of the other two cities.
My chief objective is to obtain artifacts for the event main building. I'm not sure I used my event currency very well.
1. I followed idavis's advice to keep the preparation table free and organized.
2. I didn't discard anything. I did my best to match the ingredients I spawned or merged with the existing orders.
3. I didn't discard any order, especially because I didn't know which were the best for my goal.
So now my question is: What orders should I keep and/or handle so that I will be able to get as many artifacts as possible?
Has anybody figured that out?

I don't think that I have any need for Juul's Traveling Kitchen artifact other than to disenchant it later on. I cater everything and I collect more than enough coins on a daily basis so I'm wondering what incentive I have to take up a valuable 4x4 space in my city.

haha Moho!! What if I'm a airhead? I will probably figure it out in a week or two!! Kinda sukks

That was my point. This thread didn't seem to include enough information although many agree it is not one of the easiest events to play.
Well, nice. I may be busy spending tons of chef hats on the last day of the event then.

You’ll need to figure out which orders are the cheapest and discard all the rest. Unfortunately this involves doing a little math for each and every order, because they are all different. My method is to count each dish as the most level one spawns it would require (so, a level 1 dish is 1, lvl 2 is 2, lvl 3 is 4, lvl 4 is 8, lvl 5 is 16, and lvl 6 is 32), then add those together (e.g. if you have an order asking for a level 2 dish, a level 5, and a level 6 dish that equals 50), then divide by the number of stars you’ll get for completing it (if you get 4 stars for it, the last example would be a 12.5). Then you just have to see a number of orders to get a feel for what kinds of numbers are on the low end of the spectrum. I’ve found several 12s, so I’ve been discarding anything over a 13 so far.
This method worked very well for me in the last event. However, be aware that it involves discarding most of the orders, so don’t expect to dump all your currency on one day because you’ll spend a fair amount of time waiting for new orders, or have to start fulfilling expensive, subpar ones and impair your artefact progress.

Thank you. This a very good tip. I'll take it into account.
Good information regarding the math we're supposed to do to get the best deals. Hm, sorry Inno, but I will play intuitively. I haven't used math for fun for a very long time and I won't start to do it now. I know it's simple math but I don't enjoy doing it. So instead I operate with elements of logic mingled with arithmetic. I hope it'll work.
This is the reason why I mentioned the fact that I used about 400 chef hats to reach the first milestone and get the artifact. Does 400 chef hats seem too large a number to go from milestone to milestone and secure the artifacts I need to evolve the main building?

@Moho , last event like this I think I only used 2-3 deals.
I spent alotta time trying to get the right deals, so MaidenFair
is right, that this isn't the "do all on 1 day" event. I also know
hopefully you win those bonus thingies, and then hope they
give you more currency.
Example, using MaidenFair's = or < 13 rule.... each 20 pt,
would cost 260 currency , so 400 seems a bit high ... if you're
on the GP only strategy. So far I haven't played yet, and I
need to see the deals better to say which deals I'll take.
I just want artifacts too......

I don’t think Inno expects us to do math, that’s just my stubborn way of refusing to spend real money which I can’t afford but intending to finish well in events any way.
I haven’t fulfilled more than a few offers so far (close to changing chapters), so take this for what it’s worth, but that sounds awfully high to me. I think there’s only 2255 currency available from the quest line, if I read IDavis right, and you’d need 5200 at that rate to fully evolve the building…

All right, thank you, I understand. I think I can improve my skills and bring that number down to 300. It may not be enough to obtain 9 artifacts but I'm not worried. I only want Mama's Kitchen for the troops, and the funny thing is that a level 7 Kitchen produces the same number of troops as a 10 level Kitchen. So, I think, I'm on the right path.

Thank you. Like I've just said in the post above, my goal is to get a level 7 Mama's Kitchen. So far it seems to be doable.

Good luck! I enjoyed this event format last year, hope you have fun with it too.Thank you. Like I've just said in the post above, my goal is to get a level 7 Mama's Kitchen. So far it seems to be doable.
