No you are only on level one and have been for ages , must have accepted a neighbour request from me at some point

KnickKnack · 31/01/2010 22:33

ahh I remember, DS was looking for a game to play and we tried out several before he decided on Restaurant City

ToccataAndFudge · 01/02/2010 00:34

Niece - you can do the insect one on your own - you just have to keep buying more (different) animals until the first insect is unlocked (or alternatively for a quicker route get a friend to send you one)

Niecie · 01/02/2010 09:31

T&F - Oh I seeeee.

I thought it was like most other games where you don't get extra things to buy until you level up.

Thank you for telling me - but how would I have known that without this thread? I could have given up playing because I thought I had come to a dead end!

Anyway, being nosy now - how much do you all charge for Zoo entrance? After having the price set at £2 for ages I have just discovered that actually I can charge £11 without a drop off in visitor numbers and profit. That was a bit of revelation too! By £13 the profit and visitor numbers drop like a stone.

Is there a way of knowing what to set the price at without trial and error?

simpson · 01/02/2010 10:29

nymph - yes am RS. If you request me as neighbour I will accept

ToccataAndFudge · 01/02/2010 13:05

no it's just trial and error

I have mine set at $16 have done for ages as I played around with the price to find the optimum price

Someone sent me a gift on FV and asked for cows. I can't remember who it is

Can you poke me or something, so I can send you one? Also, tell me where on the gift page they are, as most of the gifts are blanked out on my m/c as I can't install the latest Flash. If you say it's the 3rd one on the 2nd row or something I'll do my best!

MumofOscar · 01/02/2010 16:32

Jux Twas me that asked for cows if you would be so kind

And I'm very impressed with your psychic ability as cows are indeed the 3rd one on the 2nd row!!

MumofOscar · 01/02/2010 16:32

(Oh i'm HP btw)

Jux · 01/02/2010 16:36

Wow! I've impressed myself too! I'll send one now (I hope!)

desertgirl · 01/02/2010 16:59

odd. on mine it is the fourth one on the first row.... (the cow)

desertgirl · 01/02/2010 18:04

niecey now you have the butterfly, it is unlocked to you, you can buy the other four.

I don't think it goes into this issue but there is a handy game guide at www.bukisa.com/articles/192149_my-zoo-tips-achievments-list-and-tips

ToccataAndFudge · 01/02/2010 18:15

this is an excellent guide - and there's lots of questions answered on the dicussions there.

simpson · 01/02/2010 18:23

forgot to say, got my onion mastery this morning.

Itwas delayed somewhat by my hang over

desertgirl · 01/02/2010 18:40

Does anyone know what 'congratulations on completing today's to do list' is on about in Farmville? what to do list?

and how do I get my barn raising thing to republish?? only need one more person but nothing seems to make it post.

thanks

MumofOscar · 01/02/2010 18:51

what to do list!? I've not seen any to-do list? Gonna have to look for that now!

Well done simpson on onion mastery. i'm hoping for strawberries either tonight or tomorrow. It'll be my first mastery so very excited!

ToccataAndFudge · 01/02/2010 19:04

to do list??????

desertgirl · 01/02/2010 19:10

it is just a message which has come up a couple of times now after I have visited/fertilised a couple of friends' farms, it says something like congratulations on completing your to do list, your crops, animals and friends are very grateful.

Odd.

KnickKnack · 01/02/2010 19:10

from google (to do list)..."It hasn't been released as an actual feature in the game yet. It has only just been announced as a coming attraction, but should be available relatively soon."

plus I didn't know about the stables that are coming soon and sold several horses at the weekend

desertgirl · 01/02/2010 19:17

Ah, thanks. Well I guess whatever is on it is what I have been doing! either that or my FV is broken.

ToccataAndFudge · 01/02/2010 19:18

"coming soon" can mean anything from next week to next year - and some of the things that were supposedly "coming soon" middle of last year have either not "come" at all, or have been different from what they were reportedly said to be.

FWIW - I just got it too after sending gifts, said I'd helped friends, send gifts, and looked after my animals and crops (or something such like).

Jux · 01/02/2010 19:47

I did my to-do list too! Was a bit gobsmacked.

jaquelinehyde · 01/02/2010 20:21

Hello people, I'm new to farmville and pretty addicted!

Are there any hints or tips you can give me?

Woul anyone like to add me, as need some more neighbours.

ladyvic78 @ yahoo dot co dot uk

Thank-you

Jux · 01/02/2010 20:21

I have an invisible pond and an invisible something-else-but-I-can't-remember-what-it-is.

I know the pond is there because I could see it when I placed it, but it drank a potion or nibbled a cake and became invisible immediately. It is between 2 white fences and a couple of bales, near the cowshed.

The other invisible thing is behind/next to my buffalo topiary in the top corner (nearish the red maple tree).

If anyone has a bit of time to waste, I'm JR, and I'd be interested to know if anyone else can see them. (And if you can see them, what is the other invisible thing?!)

Thank you

Jux · 01/02/2010 20:26

Done, JH.
