Candies with Bows

Charly-4Charly-4 Posts: 94 Level 3
I posted this before but it has yet to be answered.  I understand the logistics of how the bows work but no one will explain to me how many bows need to be collected of one color before the next color appears.  Many many times now, i have collected all the bronze bows presented to me before the bar runs out but it NEVER switches to silver bows. This could be over several different levels or playing the same level over and over trying to win it.  Or, if it actually does switch colors to silver bows, the same thing occurs and I never get the gold bow on the blue candy.  Other times, however, the next color bow appears almost immediately after collecting only two or three of one color.  There is no rhyme or reason to it.  Please explain this.

    Hi Charly-4!

    I have a video posted here on this TOPIC on Level Help & Tips under "Candy Crush Saga 3778  |  BLUE GOLD BOW WRAPPED CANDY ACTIVATED THE PIÑATA". I played this CHALLENGE several times with the PIÑATA appearing and sometimes FINISHING THE GAME FOR ME. Every GAMEPLAY was recorded but since I am COMPETING with FRIENDS on FACEBOOK, trying to get to the FIRST POSITION, I can't UPLOAD THEM ALL. I saved all the RECORDINGS and only posted the LATEST ONES. I NEVER COUNTED the APPEARANCE of these BOWS. 

    Here is my advice, DO NOT WORRY about the NUMBER of CANDIES WRAPPED IN BOWS. SPEED OF MATCHING these CANDIES is the KEY. I don't even look at the BOW METER. Your FULL CONCENTRATION should be focused on GETTING THESE CANDIES MATCHED-UP in TIME.

    I understand what you are saying but basically I am already highly concentrated on playing to get the bowed candies- often making unwise moves toward the goal of winning but rather moves just to collect the bows. In fact, I typically collect the green candies within a move or two of them appearing. I have also had the pinata help me win several times so I don't feel as badly about not playing wisely all the time.  Still, it just makes no sense that other times, you collect every single green bowed candy in record time repeatedly and never ever get to switch to purple before the bar disappears. I would love for someone at King Games to at least explain.

    I've seen that video and I've had the experience of getting the pinata a number of times but my original question still isn't answered.

    Have the candies with bows now been discontinued?  I haven't had any appear in a few weeks now.

    @Charly-4

    To be honest, I don't know because I've never seen them for about a month now.

    How do I get this, or what is it?  I am at end of the game and have no idea.  Thanks!

    Jim_Pierre . They have discontinued these bows i believe.  They were only part of the game as a feature for a few months some time ago but no longer.

    On the choice of two candies to get, for a group of gifts, some times shows e blue or another color with a bow.  I thought I knew this game, as every week I am at the end, last level.

    Jim_Piere blue is the color for jelly levels, the skull is the difficulty. To me, in this quest you have to complete a Jelly Hard Level.
