a new thread for us all. Most of us do Farmville, but we play quite a range of other games between us so weather you're into Mafia Wars, Farming, playing Bejewelled, Farkle, Cafes or any other games and you just can't stop - and your OH is bored sick of you saying

"Oh I levelled up" or "ooo I've got ribbon/mastery/whatever" - then this is the place to be. Even if we don't play "your" game we're still happy to hear you talking about how you're doing on it.

I'm so excited to find this thread, is it too late to join in? Is anyone still doing Farmville?

None of my FB friends play FV. I've been limited to the dc and even, in desperation, gave the cat a farm so I could finally expand . I'm on level 25 and would love to have actual active neighbours.

Is it still ok to use some of the names in this thread and just send you a request?

Awassailinglookingforanswers · 14/12/2009 16:24

Hello Hinny - welcome to the thread

Loren - of course it's not too late to join - everyone is welcome - and all of the names on this thread are open for new requests.

Go right ahead Lorem...I only had 2 neighbours a few days ago
My email address isn't on here, but look on some of the other guys pages and I'll appear on several, initials SH.

flier · 14/12/2009 16:29

hello FV neighbours. I can't believe this new thread is already at 380 posts!

simpson · 14/12/2009 16:31

Alfa - have got quite into the bread making and jam making too.

Am waiting for my wheat and grapes to be ready

Saintnickknack - Have I got you?? I can't remember

Hitting blueberries hard again today only 8000 odd to do

Awassailinglookingforanswers · 14/12/2009 16:31

I know we're really going some aren't we flier.

Although I think making it for all FB gamers has made it move faster - as those that don't play FV - but are addicted to playing other games are posting too

SaintNickKnack · 14/12/2009 16:37

I think so simpson, on FV ad cafe, but to be honest I've more or less lost track of who is who, so many new neighbours in such a short space of time!

FlamingoCrimbo · 14/12/2009 16:42

Lorem - you're welcome to add me. I'm on FV and just got into CL.

FlamingoCrimbo · 14/12/2009 16:42

Forgot to say - search for FlamingoBingo, not FlamingoCrimbo!

Niecie · 14/12/2009 16:43

Loren - my email address is shown on Friday 11th at 4pm if you want to add me. Feel free, the more the merrier.

I have ulterior motive that I only need about 5 more neighbours for my blue rosette.

Does your cat have it's own email account then?

LoremIpsum · 14/12/2009 16:46

Thanks, ALFA, Flamingo, St Nick and all. I'm quite pathetically excited!

Flamingo, I'm on CL too, and RC.

Ok, off to find you all.

FlamingoCrimbo · 14/12/2009 16:51

Ooh goody - I need more CL neighbours!

silverfrog · 14/12/2009 16:55

right, I have been sucked into Country Life

Awassailinglookingforanswers · 14/12/2009 16:56

I'm on Flamingo's FB - initials are GM - 3 little boys dressed in red as the photo

FV, CL, CS, etc etc etc

I think the best way is to plant up lots of clover and get feeding those cows. Get someone to send you a Cheese Machine - and then you can use the milk (which gives you 1 xp for each milk used) to make cheese.

Flamingo, you're so fast! I've sent you a neighbour request for FV, will do CL next (it's loading slowly for me right now).

Silverfrog, I sent you an FV email request.

ALFA, will go and find you on Flamingo's list now.

Niecie, I found your post and just sent you an email request.

Yes, our cat does have his own account . DS1 set it up. It seems to be a thing at the moment, for your pet to have a page.

Happily, he decided he'd quite like a farm, or two, and a restaurant. He'd love to be everyone's neighbour too. His farms etc. are active. Once I'd set them up, I couldn't bear the thought of them lying idle, so run both.

My initials are FN, btw, b&w webcam photo of me looking rough as profile pic. The cat is Monty, he's quite easy to find on my friend list ;)

FlamingoCrimbo · 14/12/2009 17:06

So what is everyone planning to do with all their festive decorations after Christmas? Can't afford to waste spend real money on storage until next year, and it's counting towards my Pack Rat ribbon.

I'm thinking that I could hide it all behind my trees until next year, but that wastes space. Or maybe hide it all behind my trees until I've got enough for my Pack Rat blue ribbon (need 60 more) and then sell them all.

What are others doing?

Awassailinglookingforanswers · 14/12/2009 17:12

I got my packrat by buying a LOT of haybales..........and then selling them all after

seem to recall that I bought lots of rest tents for the buildings(?) one - and then sold those.

That used to be the most cost effective way of doing it (got the tips off the forums) but obviously there's been loads of new stuff added since then so may well have changed.

OP posts:
FlamingoCrimbo · 14/12/2009 17:15

I'm happy to wait to get the ribbon, but not going to start selling decorations until I get it.

desertgirl · 14/12/2009 17:20

flamingo I had been wondering about getting the ribbon with the christmas decorations, though I haven't even got the red one yet. How many do you need for blue?

lorem you could add me too, on various friends lists initials SLN (have got a much bigger FV farm and CL ranch thanks to all these new neighbours!)

FlamingoCrimbo · 14/12/2009 17:24

Can't remember, desertgirl, and can't check as I'm just letting my bees pollinate my clover on CL - they'll stop if I switch over to FV now!

desertgirl · 14/12/2009 17:28

not that I'm hassling you to check anything, but they don't stop if you leave them in a separate tab - you just have to go back and pick up the honey when there are 3 jars (ie often).

sad confession, I seem to have FV and CL permanently open in their own tabs for easy checking up on... sometimes scrabble too but generally only when my scrabble friends are actually being active.

aberita · 14/12/2009 17:29

Lorem - you can add me too if you like. My initials are BZ and I'm on the friends lists of most people here.
Right, must go and harvest some sunflowers...

FlamingoCrimbo · 14/12/2009 17:31

Really? Cool, I thought they did - I thought it was just the crops that kept growing. And I also didn't know FB would let me have both open at once. Will that slow my doddery computer down even more, though?
