Hi PyperMac- Wrigs here!

From what I have read, I have a similar playing style (been playing daily, albeit causually and usually just to relax a bit a night as I am not much of a TV watcher, for 3 years and am only at level 140). Enough about me!

I only recently made it through my first full event to get the avatars. What Orithain says is very true. For each event, the editors of the WikiWiki put together a table of how many total passes you'll need to complete the event: Message of Pegasus event information

For this event it states that you will need 3,285. With non premium locations (does not need an access pass to play, like Haunted lights) you receive 3-4 event passes. With Premium locations you receive 5-8 passes (although for this event I have mostly seen 5, and 8 rare. One event we would randomly get 9-10 event passes! but that was probably a glitch as it is now gone).

When I decide I am going for it! Getting those avatars, this was my thought process and calculations for a no-purchase way to get the avatars (and I might say, DystopianMe's FB hack is BRILLIANT and made me chortle):

So if you commit to playing the clothing store like Orithain suggested and get 5 event passes each time, you'll need to play the clothing store 657 times which over the course of 30 days is basically 20 times a day. 20 times a day assuming you take 2-3 minutes to complete the room along with game loading and the lovely "TEMPTING OFFERS! LONG AWAITED OFFERS! which slow us down when we're running a seeker star and don't have time for these pop-ups so get off my bloody screen already" is about 2 hours a day. If you miss a day, just try to make up the time and # of plays on another day.

To play that many times a month is quite a bit of gold thread to have stock piled (~16K if you're at the detective level), so when I actually completed it I played Clothing Store, Garden and Theatre on a rotating basis to beat burnout and ignored the shiny HL and TB minievents tempting me to only get a pittance of 3 passes a play. I ran out of energy a lot, so I used a lot of talismans and food energies to regenerate. Also, recommend to add any food receiving collections to your wishlist as even the receipt of 1 Cafe Le Vienne helps! Please note that the number above doesn't include the 150 times you'll have to play the event room when you gather enough passes- which again at 2-3 minutes a play is about 8 additional hours for the month of playing. I would do as Orithain said and once I had about 200-300 event passes would play the event location until I ran out. But sometimes as soon as I had the amonut to access the room would play it. Usually that meant 5 plays of the Clothing Store, Garden and Theatre followed by the event location.

I only did it once, and will probably not be able to do it again but it can be done! I am quite proud my moustachioed lad of an avatar I now have. I am in awe of everyone who is able to complete it consistently!
