It might be the rainbow gun. This is a toy they can share. They shoot rainbows over each other.


Another tip I have found useful if you happen to run out of a food or toy they are asking for, You can tickle them and they will change what they want. You can do this a few times. maybe you will have their second choice in your dock.

Great job on explaining these little guys.. I feel like I'm babysitting.

I have three Zumbuddies, Sometimes when I give them what they ask for( I put it right on them) and one of the other ZB's will swoop in and grab it.

Glad to see you figured it out. That is the 1 picture that is not the same.

You got it right that it is like babysitting !!

I think for now I'm sticking with the 2 Zums. I have twin daughters so I know what it's like to have 2 babies wanting things all the time. It's kind of the same principal.....just a bit less stressful than real life !! Lolz

A: It is the Rainbow Sprayer. Note: It is the only item, so far, that does not resemble the actual item.

2. Q: Is anyone else have a major deficiency in one particular zummie color ?

A:

3. Q:
A:






for future

Yes I have. I have noticed on a given day you will get almost none of one color. For instance friday I got no purple zums and had nearly 200 of blue and pink the yellow had about 100. Then on Saturday I got tons of purple, lots of yellow, few blue and no pink. It's strange but it evened itself out over several days.

OH you can note that the zum telescope that says you can look at your zums through it does nothing. I wrote a post about it earlier. I believed I could see my zums through it and wasted all my zummies. I dont want others to too.

Can you see anything through the scope ?? Or is it just not animated like the other telescopes in WW ??



That is alot of zummies to spend on something that isn't animated. I wonder if the programming isn't in place or if it is meant to be that way ?
Have you contacted Ganz about this problem ??

Why you cannot get a party now!!!!

Once you get to 74% happiness, every 3 minutes you lose 3% happiness for no reason at all. Also, once you reach 74% happiness toys only up you 1% . (Food for all I could see gave 0% happiness, only zummies occationally.) Your zum plays with each toy for 30 seconds, so the most you could give it in 3 minutes is 6 toys. You will not be able to do this, as you need time to choose the next toy, or find the one the zum asks for (this drops you to about 5 toys). Then time is also taken by receiving zummies and feeding your zum (that drops you to 4 toys). So, in 3 minutes you earn 4% happiness and then lose 3% happiness. That means you are likely to only gain 1% happiness every 3 minutes. So, if you are lucky enough not to upset your zum, which usually drops you some 7 or 8%, then you could have a party (once you have reach 74%, which actually happens very quickly) every 1.3 hours.

The likely hood of not upsetting your zum somewhere along the line is slim. And the more zums in the room, the less likely you are to gain that 1% every 3 minutes. As it takes time to get them all toys, so the more zums you have - the less likely you are to have any parties at all.


During this test, I played with 1 zum and yielded 52 zummies in 25 minutes. I spent 258KC, which means each zummie cost me 4.96KC.

Two is probably a good number. Sometimes when two are playing togrther, my third ZB looks really left out.

Thanks to adrkfdm for the info on the telescope. I was hoping it was animated.

Thanks to shellwcross for the info on the parties. I really miss myZBs breaking out into a party even if I wasn't getting any Zummies at the time.

Great thread, lots of good info.

does anyone know if the cloudy day arm chair goes inside????

I am not a number person so I'm always glad when someone figures these things out.
Thanks
For now I think our best bet is to keep complaining about the near impossibiity of having a party in hopes that Ganz loosens this up a bit (Or rids us of the drop in happiness for no reason). I'm just playing for the zummies until this happens.

I'm thinking that the programming isn't set on some of the items yet. I really don't think they expected people to earn these items so fast.
There was someone (I'm sorry but their name eludes me) who won the movie kit and it doesn't work yet either.
Hopefully this will be in place for them soon.

The Zum cloud sofa that your get from Zum hunting goes inside (and out) so I would expect this item would also. It looks like it could be a matching piece.
I have my eye on the chair too.
Not sure if I want the tapestry, the chair, or the statue first.
Decisions, decisions !!
