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.

Excellent, loads of you added, though FV seems to take ages to add people to the neighbour bar.

FlamingoCrimbo · 14/12/2009 17:44

Please could my CL neighbours choose chickens to send me to fill up my coop?

Awassailinglookingforanswers · 14/12/2009 17:47

h yes - chickens for me in CL as well please

I've found that CL is fine open in another tab with any of the other games - except Country Story. Zynga+Zynga games=very very slow though.

FlamingoCrimbo · 14/12/2009 17:52

Tell me more about country story, ALFA?

Awassailinglookingforanswers · 14/12/2009 17:55

well it's different, (they all are aren't they ).

ermm - gosh what do you want to know???

How does it compare and contrast, as they say in essay questions, to FV and CL?

simpson · 14/12/2009 18:46

just wondering whether to get rid of my rabbits on CL and use the room for another bread maker

LOL at compare and contrasting farms

Awassailinglookingforanswers · 14/12/2009 18:48

compare and contrast - oh lord - i'm doomed

OK - it's a farm, you have quests to do, you plant, harvest, and water (so that's a contrast ), but you also use energy doing those things.

ermmm, - oh lord Simpson - you've played it - explain for me

OP posts:
simpson · 14/12/2009 18:51

ALFA - basically summed it up

TBH I never really took to it as I thought I had done the quests ie "helped" X amount of neighbours but never got the rewards iyswim

Awassailinglookingforanswers · 14/12/2009 18:52

you never got the rewards - are you sure???

OP posts:
FlamingoCrimbo · 14/12/2009 18:52

Quests??? Energy???

Do you have to eat your produce so you have enough energy to complete your quests? Are the quests like 'go and search for the apple of life and take it to the queen of the eggplant kingdom' or just 'grow five apple trees and you'll get a ribbon' kind of thing?

simpson · 14/12/2009 18:53

ALFA - the quest was still pending iyswim

Said I had not completed it but I had!!

Awassailinglookingforanswers · 14/12/2009 18:54

no - you can buy snacks (using the money you earn from selling your crops), the quests are like

"we need 600 peppers and 300 tomatoes" (so you grow them)

or "plow 45 plots"

or "Water 30 friend's farms"

But we've got trees that actualy bear fruit now too

did you accept (or whatever it was - has changed slightly in recent weeks).

OP posts:
FlamingoCrimbo · 14/12/2009 18:57

And, can someone tell me, to save me going and reading the forums, how many gifts I can have in my gift box before it's full?

simpson · 14/12/2009 18:57

yes accepted to do it

It was the one of getting people to water your crops I think

was quite a while ago...

Original poster
Awassailinglookingforanswers · 14/12/2009 19:02

ahhh if it was water friends crops - are you sure you didn't water some that were fully grown plants or already watered - as they don't count towards your total

OP posts:
simpson · 14/12/2009 19:04

I think I had to water a neighbours crop (needed 2)in the hope they would come and help on my farm iyswim.

And it told me in the update thingie that 2 people had watered my crops in return but no reward

LoremIpsum · 14/12/2009 19:04

Ok, I think I've added everyone who said they were up for it.

I'm going to send of a load of gifts in a minute - is anyone still collecting presents for the tree, or are you all full?

My tree is still titchy so I'd love pressies, but am happy with any gift, and more than happy to send specific requests.

Right, lots of farming to do now!

Original poster
Awassailinglookingforanswers · 14/12/2009 19:07

oh the request help one - no it doesn't work like that

I have precisely 412 coins at the moment - so this better be lucrative

OP posts:
simpson · 14/12/2009 19:13

ALFA - I made bread this morning and got loads of dosh

Have just sold my 2 rabbits to make room for another bread machine!!

Never going to get my expansion at this rate if I keep buying new stuff

Original poster
Awassailinglookingforanswers · 14/12/2009 19:25

I know the feeling - I'm down to virtually 0 coins, need to get a few more chickens and at least one more bread machine........then hopefully I'll be flying (hahaha) towards my 750,000 expansion

LoremIpsum · 14/12/2009 19:51

Thank you to all in this thread, a whole new FV and CL world just opened up.

Have to go and do some IRL stuff now.

tootsweets · 14/12/2009 20:01

Hello all,

Jusy wondered how this adding neighbours thing works? Am desperate to expand on fv and am only on level 10 No-one on my fb does fv yet.

simpson · 14/12/2009 20:28

tootsweets - you need to request people as FB friends first then request them as neighbours iyswim
