Can anyone tell me what event I am waiting for to increase my elders. I'm stuck at 50....Help!!
Thanks..............

There is a gong event that will give you an elder. I know people who have gotten this event but I never have. I'm very happen with my 50 totems.

Thanks for your response. I see people on the leader boards with 60+ so since I've finished almost everything else I'd try to accomplish this...I'll just keep trying. Thanks...serious36

You're quite welcome, serious. And, welcome to the boards!

I don't think there is a Gong effect that could increase the number of totem, it only increases one skill (and if the villager that ring the gong is master in 2 skills so he becomes Elder or not if you still have 50 totem).
I know there is an Event that may bring you 1 totem if you choose the right option (and more than 1 only if you have this event several times)
