Gold star crafted edibles

The table lists a gold star Oil of Garlic and Life Elixer as being a possible Cooked category items, with a value of 6, but Qi Seasoning doesn't activate when creating Oil of Garlic or Life Elixer through the crafting menu (they're not cooking menu items). Is this a mistake to leave the 6s in there or am I missing something? Electron.rotoscope (talk) 00:30, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

Seems like a mistake to me, that ought to be removed from the page. margotbean (talk) 17:32, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

Perferkt Score

Should a picture showing a display with 125 points achieved added to the page? If yes, next to the screen with 124 points or better in a Gallery section? I currently have a screenshot, Botautal (talk) 20:08, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

I think it's pretty clear from the text that the only change is to swap out iridium Fiddlehead Fern for an iridium vegetable that gives 8 points, which are listed in the sortable table. So, I don't think an image is necessary. I also don't want to have to try to fit it in the available space in 12 languages. ;) Thanks, though! margotbean (talk) 20:12, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

Special Prices

I recently had a fair display with a Spring Onion and a Salmonberry in it. The score I got leads me to believe that Bear's Knowledge and Spring Onion Mastery both contribute to the score in a fair display. I'm not sure how to add that to the page. There could be a note, next to the note saying professions don't affect the score, but should there also be additional entries with the enhanced prices and scores for those items?

I don't see where it says profession bonuses don't affect sell price, I see where it says they do affect sell price, but are not included on the page. margotbean (talk) 23:03, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

Are you talking about this sentence?: "Note: Profession bonuses (which affect in-game sell prices) are not included in the calculations on this page." If so, that sentence should be clarified. Since the calculations on this page are calculating your score, I always took it to mean that they were not included in your score. Something like, "Note: Profession bonuses are not included on this page, but they do affect your score." Or rather, "Note: Profession bonuses, Bear's Knowledge, and Spring Onion Mastery are not included on this page, but they do affect your score." Zendowolf (talk) 23:20, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

Yes, that's the sentence I was referring to, and I agree, it could be made more clear. 👍 margotbean (talk) 23:22, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

Spinning Wheel bets

On the page, it's written that according to the Kelly criteria, you should bet 50% of you money... But If you compute it, it's 0.75 - (0.25 / 2) = 62.5%, which is more than just half--Ishigh (talk) 11:44, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

It's not my area of expertise, but it appears the calculation was "simplified for the case of doubling a bet." (2 * Probability of Winning) - 1 comes out to 50%. margotbean (talk) 14:24, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

Lost and Found Box

Would it be feasible to put a 1.5 spoiler where there are mentions of 1.5 things? Lost and Found was added in 1.5 and I play on mobile. I just wanna help someone else not make my mistake of having a false sense of security. RIP to my second Prismatic Shard. TexWashington (talk) 06:56, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

I'm really sorry that happened to you! I've added another spoiler box to the section regarding the lost and found box. I don't think anyone expected the mobile v1.5 update to take a whole year, but here we are. Future advice: read the history sections of relevant pages to avoid another catastrophic loss! Again, so sorry that happened! margotbean (talk) 19:15, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

Energy bar particles from a Stardrop

Before the 1.4 update, I saw some people on YouTube that have gotten the Stardrop at the Fair, and still seeing the particles where the Energy bar would be. When I first saw this, I was going to say: "THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED ASAP." 9000 (talk) 7:25, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

Clicking on the cliff above Harvey's Clinic at the Stardew Valley Fair

Since of lads are used to the Strength Game to where you can obtain Star Tokens at the Fair, Apparently if we go above Harvey's Clinic and click on the cliff while we're facing east towards Pierre's General Store, it gives out the message "Please stand at the red arrow." as if we're gonna play the Strength Game. This has to be a bug because the wiki doesn't have this bug in the Bugs section of the Fair page. We should get lads over to check this out... 9000 (talk) 8:40, 22 May 2023 (UTC)

This bug was fixed in v1.5. Please read the "History" section of the page. If your game is malfunctioning, please file a bug report on the official forums. margotbean (talk) 14:48, 22 May 2023 (UTC)
