New Release -- December 22nd, 2009 - UPDATE 3

[lizziekillin]

nightmare today. I got hired to harvest - fine. very slow but fine. then they hired me to plow and that is when the nightmare began. it refused to refresh the farm and hire me to plow - I think it was behind in saving coins. Eventually I got hired to plow ok - by which time the other employees had grabbed most of the plowing.
I then got hired to harvest on another farm - great. Then they tried to rehire me to plow - nightmare again. after 3 attempts they added me to their buddy list and I did the same and eventually managed to get home. But no - they had not been added to buddy list at all. luckily they had me and managed to send me a message so I could follow the green man and get over there to be hired. After I had finished plowing the coins and xps continued to change for over 5 minutes after the last field showed as plowed to me.
this new release is not good. there must be some sort of saving issue that needs addressing.
please get it sorted asap please.

When you are at a farm where plowing is going on you will see -15 coins +1xp for fields others are plowing. The coins and xps will be deducted and added as you see them on screen. When you leave the farm your coins and xp will be adjusted to where they should be. You will get the coins you lost back and the xps that you got that you did not earn will be taken away from you. If you are harvesting while plowing is going on it will look like you are getting xps for harvesting but you are not it is happening because of the plowing that is taken place on the farm. Another problem with harvesting while plowing is going on you will see different amounts of coins being added but again that is because it is taking the coins for others plowing away they will be added back when you leave the farm.

Here is a screen cap of what is happening.

I had a great job harvesting a few minutes ago. The farmer was not able to hire me to plow, so she added me to her Buddy List. Before I left her farm, I checked that she was on my Buddy List... and she was. So, I went home. When I went to my Buddy List.... gone! So what's up with that?!!! She probably thinks I'm a total flake!

Also, yesterday, I plowed a huge farm for a Buddy, and when I got that nasty "server timed out message" and came back to my buddy, half the plowing I did was gone. And what's up with THAT?!!!

In addition, I am sick to death of the Server Timed Out message. I follow all the instructions for clearing my cache/browser history, etc., and have taken FT out of my FB applications list and re-entered it, and I have upgraded my Flash Player and uninstalled old versions of it. Oddly, some players tell me they never see the message. It used to be that I could hit the floppy save ikon and that would solve the problem, but NOT ANYMORE!!!
