Excellent event achievement (Ms Charms song)

[Ruesselschnurps]

I hosted each event two times. First one with a big variety of food and drinks to see which get a green smilie rating and then a second one with just the good items. It worked out for each of the first three events (listed below) but not for Ms Charms song. I hosted an event with gold star wine, gold lasagna and pasta (all green :)-rated), but nothing happened. Am I getting the whole system wrong or is it a bug?

Alcohol party:
Beer (silber, bronze)
Onion rings (silver, bronze)
Booze
Baked Pumpkin (silver, bronze)

Rat race:
Onion rings (gold)
Beer (gold)

Comedy show:
Onion rings (silver)
Booze
Beer (gold, silver)

10-20 items each

I did a Ms Charm song, just now actually, and got a :) rating for gold star vegetable soup. I've also had good results with Pasta (not lasagna). Still experimenting though.

One thing I've noted is that if you find an item that gives less than :) rating for a particular event, make sure the Bartender does not have it in his inventory when you do the event, because it will be used whether or not it gives a good rating, thus dragging you down.

I am also pursuing whether having various alcohol types in the basement chest (not shelves) or Bartender inventory makes a difference in any way.

I also did the bartender thing and just placed the :)-items in his inventory. I also got a good rating in the end but the achievement didn't pop up. Have you gotten it? Maybe I should try again with the vegetable soup.

Tested again. Having gold star red wine, beer and mead as well as booze in Bartender's inventory makes no difference. Took out all food except gold star Vegetable Soup and sold 82 (all I had) but did not get the concert achievement. Next try will be with Pasta. lack of Cheese (bought from milk maid, only source in game) is the bottleneck here.

Just did my first Rat Race. With only gold star Beer and gold star onion rings in the bartender's inventory I got both rat race achievements and sold 88 onions rings and 6 beer.

Edit: Tried again with no beer in the bartender's inventory, and I sold 88 onion rings and no beer, so it might pay off to put alcohol in the bartender's inventory after all, but I am going to try once again with more onion rings to see if it will take only onion rings if I have enough in there, and ignore the beer.

Edit 2: I put 94 onion rings and 20e ach of booze, gold star beer, gold star wine, gold star mead in the Bartender's inventory. Results: Sold all onion rings, nothing else. There was additional alcohol in the basement shelves of the listed types.

Edit 3: So I put all 4 types of alcohol, gold star when applicable, in the Barkeep's inventory, the chest and the shelves and nothing but 120 gold star Onion Rings in the Barkeep's inventory for food. The maximum that can be sold appears to be 94 and the alcohol is completely ignored.

It finally worked out for me with the following ingredients:


20 Lasagna (gold)
20 Burger (gold)
20 vegetable soup (gold)
80 red wine (gold)

It's basicly quite simple: You have to do each event 2 times.
So 8 hostings in total.

First time, you make 1 of as many food recipes you can make.
Then, host an event.
Now the important part: write down the ratings for the event.
What works for one event, doesn't have to work for the other.

Second time, you make at least 1 stack of every food that was , but i recommend you make as many as possible.
Now host the same event again, and you're done.

I noticed the an event is especially keen on food, not so much on drinks, ie: if you have some drinks (and food) vs. no drinks/a lot of drinks (and food), it makes not a lot of difference to the rating.

As described in my post, this is exactly what I did. My problem was that I didn't get the achievement even though I served just :)-food/and drinks during my second event. It worked out later though but I have no idea why it didn't before.
