LOL - yep! If nothing else, all of our eager prompting should let them know that we really, really like this feature and are excited about it.

Anyone who is loading ships for others should be getting some compensation! All those clicks should award some coins and/or product!

Hi Kathy,

Please read the post release notes for Dec 29th. You will find them in the first post on page one. 2 of the things mentioned are that the amount of clicks will be reduced and there will be coin reward.

I hope that in making changes to the ships, you'll allow people to close their ports when they have to go on vacation, are ill, etc., because too many people are assuming that we can always be in Farmtown several times every day. Some people are in here most of the day and night, but many of us still work or have family/other responsibilities. What you've structured is making this a cut-throat deal where neighbors are being deleted and everyone's pushing, pushing, pushing for their friends to help. Farmtown is becoming work vs fun and is creating friction vs comaraderie. Very sad.

My ship has been in a port for a couple days. I sent a message and explained how to access it and she says she was asked by someone else, too but there isn't anything showing for her. Has that been a problem before? I know it's been reported that there is a ship notification and none there but not this way. Can someone check on this? Thanks.

Hi RFMad,
I am sorry but we have no way to check on this as we do not have any data about the ships in our tools yet. Is she a neighbor for you and you a neighbor for her?

She is a neighbor of mine - I'm not sure about me being hers. I'll just wait to contact support. They probably have enough to check on Thanks.

The original itinerary will be made up of that list at the bottom of our screen that says "So and so sent you a gift/accelerated your train/whatever". That way, all 30 people will have actively helped US on OUR farm very recently. I think this is going to be better. We'll have a better list to start with, we'll be able to replace some of the people on it, and we'll be able to skip ports anytime we want to. When we skip, we won't earn the rewards for that step, but that seems like it will make it part of the fun - that seems like a good step to me.

My problem is the same one other are complaining about ... the 'program' they used to make the list seems to have my least active neighbors first on my list and the most active on the bottom .... I have 105 neighbors and I have only had 1 ship come thru the last 2 days and less than 10 all together ?? and I play easy 12 to 14+ hours a day in and out ... I have 5 ships out , 3 stuck on ports less than #7 , the highest one has gotten is #17 .. it has been there 2 days I'm assuming because of the holidays ... I'm not loading any more and just waiting until the impruvements are implimented before I load anymore ....

I can relate! I've been on almost non-stop since they were released and I'm getting very few ships in my port. Someone suggested maybe I needed to log off and log back in instead of just keeping Farmtown going for hours at a time. I started doing that and it does seem to have helped - but I'm still not getting the number of ships I would have expected. I've got 7 ships out now - just launced the 7th. Of the first 6, 5 of them appear to be stuck. However, I'm still going to get SOMETHING for them and I'm getting a great kick out of doing them so it's ok. But - like you - the "stuck in a port" issue is a bit frustrating until the fixes happen.

HEY!!!! Have you guys seen??? We can now SKIP PORTS!!!! I'm so excited I can hardly stand it! (Ok, maybe a TAD overstated, but I'm a heck of a lot happier.) I "unstuck" several ships that had been sitting in ports for between 1 and 4 days. Now maybe they can move along. Soooo happy!
