I'm REALLY sorry about the length of this, but it's kind of a big problem I'm having. Here's the thing: so far in the almost two months now that I've been playing this game, I've gotten a grand total of 5 gems from parades. Total.

My only resources for gems have been: 1) leveling up in the game and leveling up my characters 2) commercials from the cinema 3) buying gems as part of a promotional deal. Just recently, I remembered that parades are supposed to yield gems at all.

Now when I say "two months of game play" I MEAN "two months of game play." If I could record the time that I've spent on this game, you'd be wondering, "When the heck does this guy sleep?" (Answer: not much) So I have been constantly sending out parades without getting any gems (except a few at the very beginning).

But it gets better...

So yesterday I got curious and started keeping track of how much magic I have been spending on initiating parades and comparing that amount to the amount of magic I get in return. The last three parades have yielded a negative return. It has been costing me more to generate a parade than what I am getting in return. And I have no idea how long that has been going on.

Here's the floats that I have: Mickey & Friends / Toy Story / Cinderella / Pirates of the Caribbean / Monsters, Inc / WALL-E / Tangled / Sleeping Beauty / Zootopia

I have six slots, and I fill them all whenever I send out a parade. Gems are the commodity for this game, and the main resource for gems is not working for me. Is there supposed to be some sort of specific combination of floats that I'm supposed to be using? Any advice?
