what else can i do to ensure i dont get too involved with real life?
i am level 45 on fv, have gotten all the ribbons, except the mystery box ones coz i am not spending actual money on the game, and my stables are not too prolific in giving me stuff, neither are my collectibles very prolific in turning up.

oh you need to do something like blackberries, or blueberries to get the thrill

farmerjones · 25/03/2010 20:37

oh no you don't attend RL - you plan your RL around your crops

if you'll excuse me, my stable, dairies and chicken coop need harvesting (seriously they do)

farmerjones · 25/03/2010 21:52

my town

oh why did I start

Country Life. Worth a try. Another farm one but quite different. Quite time consuming planting though.

I agree with T&F over the masteries. Just started to try and get the 3rd star for blueberries and I know if I ever get that one I am going to be over the moon. Only 10,900 to go.

Can't ever imagine i shall get raspberries though. 2 hours is just not long enough to fit in a bit of RL (or other games) and without the incentive of XP as well, I think I might be leaving that one until last.

I do quicker ones at the same time to keep the interest up. Just got roses. No. 18!!

Mytown is good but I keep forgetting that that needs tending to every 4 hours too.

What about Farm Town? If you haven't played before it might be a bit different and the first few levels are always the most fun because you get them quickly. I used to play but got bored. However, they have loads of new stuff now.

farmville im bored of it too

ToccataAndFudge · 06/04/2010 12:17

Raspberries aren't too bad actually, and if you plant them regularly (I did do them every 2hrs.......) then you don't get any less XP from ploughing that you do for 4hr crops including the harvesting

2 ploughing in 4hrs for raspberry - 2xp
1 ploughing 1 planting for 4hr - 2xp

Niecie · 06/04/2010 12:21

Fair point about the raspberries XP but I still keep letting the damn things wither!

I keep trying but never remember to go back in time.

DuelingFanjo · 06/04/2010 12:32

I much prefer farm town. Is it the challenges on farmville which people like?

Curiousmama · 06/04/2010 12:35

how about getting an allotment in RL?

I did countrylifethingy for a bit but soon bored of it...plus felt a real saddo tbh.

edwardcullensotherwoman · 22/04/2010 16:27

have you tried treasure isle? That one's not too bad. Or fishville, happy aquarium, zoo world. Farmville is my all time fave I must say. only problem I have is I can't get enough supplies to finish my buildings! anyone fancy becoming my neighbour and sending harnesses/horseshoes/nursery stuff??
