FarmVILLE on Facebook

[DebbieB]

I'm so disgusted with this. On Thursday night, a friend's mother started the school bus co-op. I already have one but thought I would help her out, she never seems to be able to get enough people in her co-ops for gold. I also recruited another friend. We had everything planted except for a few cranberries. On Friday morning, I logged in to see if anyone else planted cranberries to finish. My active job was gone and my job history showed 0! I think the last time I checked it, I had 18 jobs attempted. I figured it was a glitch, I'd check it when I got home. Got home last night, still gone. I harvested my grapes, the popup did not come up. I posted on the starter's wall what happened. Later someone else in the co-op commented that they had enough to get the gold except for the ones of mine that didn't count. Ugh......

I haven't tried any of the co-ops yet and from all the negative experiences I've heard about, I probably won't do them.

I tried one and got nothing from it even though all my plots were planted and harvested...I won't do any more.

Me too! Not doing them anymore!

I am hooked on Farmville!

I have done a few coops (got 6 grape sheep, a pergoda, bus plough, 2 lantern trees and the wedding gazibo) but I have been let down on several others too, I don't think I will try for any more. Several times I have joined a coop and we have enough planted to get gold, but some people just do not harvets in time. Yesterday I joined a grape one and the person who started the coop didn't even harvest in time for gold.

I don't like how FB is now grouping like items together -- I miss so many game posts that way. There is too much clicking involved. You open the list, click on one thing, help a neighbor or get a bonus, then you have to re-open that related list again....and again....each time. We want less clicking, not more.

I love the co-ops. It's kept the game worth playing afaic, as I reach higher levels.

I don't like all the new clickiness they've added. I might have to look into some of the scripting tools that do a lot of the clicking for you. Clearly, Zynga doesn't have any developers or testers over the age of 40!

I love the school bus plow I got from the school bus co-op. Plows 9 plots at a time (3 x 3). I got the grape sheep, a pagoda, I sold the statues I got from the morning glory & another one.

Digging and planting is so much easier on farmville than real life. I just spent 7 hours digging my allotment and one by one my muscles are starting to protest! Bath time now I think.

I'm really glad that I did the Mafia Wars promotion and have the 3x3 plow, 3x3 harvester and 3x3 seeder. It really makes things a lot better.

The hot rod machines? I have them all too.

Anyone here breeding rare foals need a neighbor to trade with? I have a clydesdale, percheron, 2 pintos, and a purple mane pony. I would like to trade rare foals with someone.

Funny, I like it better. No more scrolling through my live feed to find Farmville posts.

Although, lately I haven't been able to stop the harvester sound. After I finish harvesting, I switch activities, but the motor keep sgoing which is really annoying.

If there is anything from a co op that you really want, you can add me as a friend and let me know My 2 sisters, and my neices do co ops, and have enough with just us, to get the gold! I have all of the rewards already.

Can you fill me in on how to do this???

 

[bicker]

I'll be ready to go into another co-op tomorrow night. (Church group meeting at my home tonight so no FarmVille for me.)

Stable Stuffing:

I keep all the regular (brown and grey) horses outside of the stable, I only keep the rare horses inside. When a regular horse is 33% or more ready, empty the stable of all horses. Then move the regular horse into the empty stable. This will make the stable ready to collect immediately. Then I add/move all the rare horses and remove the regular one.

Then the waiting begins for the wandering stallion. As soon as one shows on my feed, I get it and go to my farm. Your stable should have your rare horses and the stallion inside. Then collect from it. Sometimes I get the rare foal, sometimes I get a consumable, sometimes I get 5,000 coins.

If I get a rare foal (or consumable), I can post it to certain people's profile or all my friends and they can enjoy it.

After I collect, I empty the stable again and add a regular 33% or more ready regular horse. It will again become ready to collect, and add the rare horses back in again and wait again for a stallion. I always try to keep the stable ready to collect so when I find a stallion I can collect immediately.

I can do this about 12 times a day, or as many regular horses you have at 33% ore more ready.

Anyone can do this to get consumables too, just don't get the wandering stallion. I almost have my blue ribbon for that one. There is no limit like there is with gold eggs or calves.

Here's a random trick you can do with the Tossin' Tomatos co-op..

Once you win the medal and get the Circus Elephant, you can resize him and make him smaller.. Simply click on him and rotate.. When rotated on a certain angle he is smaller.

It is a glitch in Farmville, sure to be fixed up soon though!
