New Release -- July 28th, 2011

[Raine Logan]

i haven't played any other game on fb for a couple of years and been resisting checking out the sims game everyone's playing these days ...

but gee ... we've all been camped out in this thread for a while now and not even a peep from the devs to say 'nearly there', or 'not quite there guys', or ... anything.

must be time to shop around ...

We should be able to do real work for them - harvest, chop or plow. I wouldn't want freedom to work their facilities, unless we could block that, since I have been so focused on the rewards for the Diversification Rank that is suppose to be coming!

i started playing in june 09, the first few neighbours trophies where a breeze, but yes like u i gave up on it too,.

but i found a mthod that worked for me, it was a slow process, but i got there..

i started by visiting the 8 neighbours showing on my friends list every day, i didint miss a day, my visits started to build.. as i hit around 3000, i nearly gave up again.. i even told my son whio played id buy him 55 FC if used my account and do my visits lol.. then about 6 months ago i started doing the first two screens of friends.. it would only takle a few mins, easier if u turn of flowers, buildings trees etc when loading other farms, and with a bit of paitience i got there about 4 weeks ago :

well peeps it should be here lol. ive held off loading up alll my faciclties since the last release, i normally do this when I know a release is imminent. occasionally again, the release will be delayed, eventually i give and load my facilties up, always guaranteed to bring on the update around an hour after i do it lol..

well i had a close call last week and nearly did.. but i didint and guess what no release.. this week it got the better of me - i just maxed out, so my theory of it biting me in the butt every tiem i do this will remain in tact if we get that baby tonite!!!

I finally got my 15th trophy because I was watering my neighbor's flowers with my sprinkler. That made the visits worthwhile - 1,000 coins and 3 xp per farm. Some of my neighbors have flowers on all 10 farms or at least a majority of them. It adds up I have a list so I know where their flowers are and don't have to hit the ones with no flowers.

The MODerators answer questions and keep the forums in control. Many of us answer questions but are not moderators. You will find all the moderators names are in green and not the same color as the rest of us.
The Developers are the Slashkey programmers who create and modifiy the game for us. The only one of them you will see on is Raul and his name is in blue. The only time he is on is to post about a new update release or to add to the information about a release. Raul does not answer questions and none of the other developers come in the forums to do that either.

Maybe it is time to converge on Miami and hold a demonstration in front of Slashkey's headquarters...

Wonder what they would do if we all showed up at once demanding farm 11
It is almost worth a try.
