Thank you for sharing your feedback :)
In your opinion, what would be your ideal pacing for future campus takeover party events? Should there be a party happening every hour? Do you think instead of drop-based scoring, would it be better if it were based on the number of parties the community completes within a given event period?

Looking forward to hearing additional thoughts on this :D
 
We see that some of you are growing anxious in regards to reaching the final tier of the XC.

We will monitoring the community's progress closely over the remaining scheduled parties!

I guess the requirement of having at least 100 hits in these parties, along with no leaderboard, is making people burn through DNs/participate more… which makes it harder for a lot of people to take part. My friend and I were just talking about how we couldn’t really take part, because every time we check the game, there’s no campus party going on. And that’s a shame, I feel like this sort of event should be made in a way that allows everyone to take part

Is there anything you can think of that would help future events like this? e.g. suggestions for potential changes to the format, party difficulty, party schedule, pacing or the XC itself?
 
The fact the campus party lasts less than half an hour is extremely telling that you messed up on how hard to make it.

100 hits to score rewards? That's not horrible, but its crazy to expect it to happen on a party that's gone before people can hit it.

I've been watching this event waiting for the campus party to show up once only to find it's been basically dead too fast for me to even think about hitting it

I am fairly sure I won't be able to hit the party once at this rate, which is its own brand of unacceptable because I have been trying to be online to hit it. But again, it's always dead before an hour has passed. I don't really know what else to say, because I can't think of a solution to this that would be feasible for correcting this mess.

I haven't seen one party yet and can't get 1 hit in, let alone 100. Make the party every hour or two. People have lives outside of the game and can't drop everything for a 30 minute or less time slot.

I sadly had this exact issue. I’m a student and every time I’ve logged on (which has been fairly often!) I’ve not seen a SINGLE party. Really disappointed I now have to get nothing 🫩
 
I think we can definitely see ways that the event has been improved. The parties are finishing much more quickly with everyone participating. Setting an easy to understand minimum requirement of 100 hits makes it easier to participate. The parties aren’t stretching out but they could be a bit longer if the wait period is to remain four hours. Or if the difficulty remains the same, perhaps the frequency could be changed to every three hours. That way there’s an increased likelihood of logging on to an active party.
 
Just wanted to jump in to say I LOVE the way his event is structured. The 100 drops encourages people to join and actually participate well, while the rewards are so fun!!!! It's also so easily trackable with the cake drops. Would love more events like this!!!! 💙
 
Things I liked about this event:
- ability for everyone to participate
- everyone getting the same rewards
- the rewards were cute, and I personally loved the avis

Things I didn’t like:
- the imbalance of the party showing up every 4 hours but it only lasting 30 minutes. Either this needs to have a harder party for a 4 hour time slot, or the parties need to be more frequent. In my personal opinion, I’d rather have more frequency and keep the parties easy so that there’s more opportunities to hit.

Things that were… meh:
- 100 hits is fine I guess but it’s only good for the last bar or burning dns if you only were able to hit one or even two parties. I personally feel that since the last bar has the (up to) 120 “free hits” that it should be the longest bar so that all players have the chance to hit for “free” (not using energy or dns)
- I’d like a count down timer between parties, not just 15 minutes before it starts.
 
Please make one two more extra party please I just came back to pimd I wanna be part of ATA DAY especially I love this theme please ata make one exception

EVENT AVAILABILITY
September 2nd, 2026 - September 4th, 2026
12 PM Pacific Time

What’s that in the sky? A bird? A plane? A suspiciously enormous amount of frosting?! IS IT CAKE???

A gigantic mystery cake has crash-landed smack-dab in the middle of the Quad, covering everything in frosting, crumbs, and enough sprinkles to last us until graduation. Where did it come from? Why is it so huge? And, uh… are we sure there isn’t anyone trapped underneath it?!

There’s only one way to find out: WE HAVE TO EAT IT, DUH.

This cake is way too massive for any one Club to handle alone. It’s going to take the entire campus... every fork, every bite, every sugar-fuelled student to devour this dessert disaster and uncover whatever (or whoever 👀) might be underneath.

So grab your friends. Grab your forks. Maybe wear something you don’t mind getting frosting on. It’s time to TAKE THE CAKE! 🎂🍴

DELICIOUS DETAILS
☞ This Take the Cake! Campus Takeover Party will be available every 4 hours (meaning if the party runs for the full 3 hours, it won't be available again for another hour).
☞ ✨NEW✨ If you are in two parties at once (e.g. your club party and the Campus Takeover one), there will be an arrow where you can expand to see the other party! It'll be in a circle border instead of rounded square.
☞ Otherwise, find this party on your home screen!
☞ Each player will be capped to 5000 hits per Take the Cake! party.

How to Defeat the Cake


Defeating this colossal cake will be a Campus XC, "Take the Cake"! This XC has a campus-wide score that the entire player base contributes to by participating in the Take the Cake! campus party.

☞ Use either GRAB FORK, DIG IN, and CUT SLICE attacks to hit the party's regular bar.
☞ The final bar will require you to throw Hungry Critters at the cake with the ITEM attack.
☞ Once defeated, this party will drop Cake Chatter which is what you will require to progress in the Campus XC.

FAQ


What's a Campus Takeover Party?
It's a massive party that requires all players on PIMD to contribute (hit) to! Check out the very first Campus Takeover Party here!

When does it start? What time are parties?
The Take the Cake! Campus Takeover Party will be available from 12 PM Pacific Time on September 2nd, 2026. There will be 12 parties in total, starting every 4 hours!

How can I find the party? How often will the party be available?
If you are in two parties at once (e.g. your club party and the Campus Takeover one), there will be an arrow where you can expand to see the other party! It'll be in a circle border instead of rounded square. Otherwise, find this party on your home screen!

I can't find the party, the party icon isn't showing up for me? What's going on?
1. Ensure you are using the latest updated version of the PIMD app from your respective app store (App Store/Google Play)
2. Double check the party schedule to confirm there is supposed to be a Take the Cake! party running
3. If there is supposed to be an active party, the party could have already been defeated. In that case, you will need to wait for the next scheduled party. We would strongly recommend being there for the start of a Take the Cake! party to make sure you can participate.

Just like with regular parties you run in your own clubs, there will be a 15-minute countdown timer that will appear to indicate that the Take the Cake! party will be beginning soon!

PLEASE NOTE
You must have completed ALL of your tutorial stories before seeing XCs, including this one!

What is are Hungry Critters? Where can I find them?
You'll need Hungry Critters to complete the final bar of the Take the Cake! party. You can find them in Molly's Deals for cash every hour! Each player is limited to holding ONLY 120 of these, so plan your attacks accordingly!

What is Cake Chatter?
Cake Chatter drops when the cake has been defeated after a successful party! They count towards progress in the Take the Cake! XC. Collect at least 100 of these to earn the brand new Cake-Chomping Champion achievement!

How do I access the Slice Squad chat room?
You'll need to buy the Cake Slice Emoji Spell 🍰 from the Store! Once you do, you'll have access for 48 hours i.e. the entire length of this Campus Takeover Party event. This chat room will disappear shortly after the final Take the Cake! party ends.

Are any of the rewards tradeable?
Not this time around!

Can I participate in this party multiple times?
Absolutely! Every successful party completion takes a bite out of the cake and contributes to the global Campus XC score. The more you join, the more Cake Chatter you’ll collect, and the faster you get to claiming rewards!

Please make one more or two more last party as I just came back I wanna be part of it too please
 
Please make this event longer in the future. Most the community is use to longer events, I completely missed this event because I didnt expect it to only be 2 days and thought I had more time. Yes thats on me for not reading but again the community is use to longer events AND in addition having the parties not be avaliable 24/7 makes it extremely difficult to coordinate. I only saw the parties maybe 2 or 3 times and I have come on the game more than triple that amount of times. I think I had seen that they start butt early in the morning too which was extremely discouraging right off the bat.
 
I saw one party the entirety of this so I didn’t get the reward since it was on last bar, I was under the assumption it would be the entirety of the ata day celebration like usual. So that’s a little disheartening, parties were just at bad times for me or went very fast during peak daylight hours. Hopefully others were able to get the rewards
 
I love the concept and all of the rewards but i was unable to claim mine due to being 10 hits away and an error on the last party where it wouldnt let me hit which is very disappointing
