Wait a minute... am I to understand that if you hold off on starting a mini-event, you end up on a less aggressive leaderboard?! If this is true, then I must have joined the current mini-event as soon as it started because I'll be lucky to be in the top 500 on my leaderboard this time around and I have 121 gold trophies! (not that I'm overly focused on this mini-event anyways, but useful to know for future events) The top 16 slots have over 500 each...
Since I can't afford Rafiki (spent all my gems on Zazu, and have only scraped up 81 since then), would it be worth it to get him at the end of the event if I can manage to get that many gems by then? (definitely going to be downright difficult if not impossible) Or if I can't get him now to help with the event, should I just pass on him entirely? Odds are I won't get enough gems anyway, but I'm wondering how much effort to put into attempting to get that many gems, or if I should just give up on that now... It would be nice to finish my first timed-event with all the characters, but I'm not going to spend real $ to make it happen.
Nala's paw prints are going to take forever to get. I only have 2 so far, but I hope I'll get at least 2 more in the next couple of hours as all 3 of my tasks for those should finish by then. The ears on the other hand have come along fairly well as I have 5 of those already, so nearly half way on ears
