    Maybe I can help:

    Find any MM quest you like.
    Say that the quest ask for 150 of something and 200 of another.
    Then submit either 149 of some and 200 of another
    or
    submit 150 of something and 199 of another.
    And just leave it that way.

    Then do the exact same thing for some other quest and just leave it missing one seed to finish.

    xD And this is how the event gets some:

    So they are able to do the simple things ask for.
    Great.
    See, those two quests steps needing only one item will just sit and sit and sit and sit

    xDxD

    And when a participant starts that sleep farming and submits that oooooooooooooooone seed then:

    epepepepepepepepepepepepeepepepepepep and fireworks and the Golden Boot is shined up a little more
    and then they need the quest(s) again xDxDxDxDxD

    Some quests award looooooooooooooooots of ep.

    Does your participating farm want to use up its available ep on this by doing something silly?

    Just to clarify, does this mean 1 part of one level, or does it mean to complete all 3 parts of one level?

    I am hoping it is the former, since I completed 1 part of Jack's Back for 1 star and 490 EP.

    Second Questions

    Do completing these MM quests go towards the big ranking system. If so, then 007 and I are now Gold.

    I had 7 points to get me to Silver. Then 007 and I acknowledged and thanked each other which gives us 1 point; and, 1 point completing a MM part
    .
    (If I am correct with thinking above.) This gives us 9 points which makes us Gold.

    EDIT: Baha 50 Main Lvl 19 (because I accidently did a Fuzzy that I was able to avoid for 3 weeks until boom I got confused after working with my other 3 gifting farms.)

    I have not been following this. Too many words!
    I'd like to confirm I'm the mentor of one of Broke's chicks, Onelegchicken. Not that he needs much mentoring! I've mostly been supplying Power Feed and that's about it.

    Hello FarmerRainbow. May I please have your farm and bahamarama level? I do not need pictures as you are beyond the Aluminum tactics and I choose to believe you. As a farm advances, many attempts to deceive us will become obvious. Also, I do not have access to the game program and operating without access will cause no difficulties.

    I did look at the photo submitted regarding the MM quest. Use of Jack's Back was good. Your farm did not overpay with ep for the star. When a farm moves to the very top then photos will be asked for (particularly a photo showing that all but one seed was submitted). Keeping from harvesting will disturb a farmer until the very end.

    Wonderful One-Two :inlove:,

    I notice that you have the 12ss12 farm posting right behind the FarmerRainbow farm. My experience: I did the exact same thing in another thread over 1.5 years ago in this forum. I was given a warning of sort not to do it as it was double posting. Today I do not know how this posting is being handled by our moderators. I see many good changes in their enforcement behavior and do not know where they have chosen to draw the line.

    If indeed moderators are presently choosing to tolerate the posting action, I do not feel that we should abuse it or do it repeatedly.

    For you: :) Our behavior is far beyond the behavior of Aluminum Chickadees and Aluminum Mentors. xD

    Finally, I do not have a solution for the easiest and most efficient way to handle advances. If you have one then I am open to it. Until the present chaotic method becomes too much for me to handle, let's just continue on.

    How long do we have to keep the 2 limos on our main field? Do you want a pic? I have done this. I even took a pic, but haven't figured out how to post it yet.

    Thank you broke.

    FarmerRainbow
    Main farm level 19 & Bahmarama 50

    I will take the warning. And will be more careful. Several years back, sometimes when I updated the rumour thread I used to post from my second farm when no one has posted after me. The mods did not say anything. But anyway I will be careful and refrain. Personally I think that rule might have been changed. :p

    Oh Noooooooooooooooooooooo! The nights event is Baha.
    It appears okay to farm and even get the drops. But the farm will not feed any of the spawning animals.

    The worst part is that each farm is given 3 magic carpets.

    By doing nothing (not feeding any spawning animals), the ep hit alone will be 3 x 800 = 2,400 ep at the exchange.

    Or

    Possible rewards from feeding the animal and not taking the definite above hit include:
    100 ep times the farm level
    75,000 ep
    50,000 ep
    and again 75,000 ep

    There is an ep chance from feeding the second animal (Djinn bear):
    500 ep times the farm level
    80,000 ep

    This farm is very early farm level 36. It will take the definite ep hit and not take the risk of chance ep. I need to submit information so that this farm can move up in rank before that Golden Boot gets any closer.

    After thoroughly reading and rereading the event FAQ, the game strategy thread and your post. I finally figured out the danger.

    I will take the chance and get rid of the 3 Magic carpets. I am at 19 1/2 & any of the possible EP hits will do major damage to Siouxzen, but I won't get the Golden boot. The worst might be I would jump to lvl 21 and then I can start breeding Monkey since I have opened that rune already.

    There is also a good chance that I will not take an EP hit so then I will not have to take the end ep hit of 2,400.

    I might change my mind. I'll see how it goes.

    I won't grow any of the event crops. I would rather grow my Passion fruit so I can sell it.

    It is great that that both drops will not give us EPs so we can keep on farming.

    Thanks Rat for this alert!

    PS - Rat could you please tell your friend Broke that I had a question a few posts back. How long do we have to keep the 2 Limos on the Main field to earn the point?

    Also, I have gone up in rank to the Serendipity gem rank?

    My dyslexia prevents me from saying - let alone spelling most of the gems so I have to give them all nicknames - hehehe. When you have time can you please review my points & move 007 & I. Thank you!

    An update on my farm:

    Currently level 15.

    1. Mentor obtained (Mentor sjemmie - been with her now for a month and 2 weeks)
    5. Two (2) limos on the main field and decorated as you choose (Have the 2 limos but the rest of the field is still covered with Cress...)
    12. Obtain at least one (1) star which awards EP using only system generated seeds (Very first star in the 'Jack's Back' quest)
    23. At least one cress refinement (Refinement Water love - Increases water effectiveness by 2%)

    I'm almost at a point where I can unlock Baha! Good luck everyone!

    @Brakenjan1984
    Great effort so far.
    Completion and submission of one more accomplishment (five required) should bring you and your mentor to Staple Chickadee and mentor.

    Any separation from the Aluminum bunch is great. Please just keep farming along.:)

    @12ss12

    Wonderful One-Two :inlove:, I used much of the information you submitted in the notable participant thread. You have posted here many times and was given credit for mentor thanking and appearing.


    I have yet to use the breeding animal FarmerRainbow has unlocked. Whenever you post again for a new rank, would you please provide the name of the animal?

    Farmers submitting rank adjustments are doing well so far. Keep this a secret: There is another section of this event that is being tested. The difficulty ranking is: ridiculously challenging


    -----------------------------
    :cry:

    The catdoggie farm under mentor pnp very foolishly fed the two animals in the current game event. I knew the risk of receiving ep as a reward. :cry: In all, the farm received first 3,100 ep. The farm then received another 5,000 ep.:cry:. All this ep was enough to level the farm up to level 32 (midway to 33 now) :cry:

    This is exactly why it may be safer for farms to take the 2,400 certain ep hit.:cry:

    Go on and xD . I just left the farm however it was until I finish :cry:

    Hi PnP. :) I do not even want to go to the catdoggie farm now and see the mess I have created. :oops:

    I'm trying something with TC. I have the exact same choice with the farm in her nest. So I asked what to do. I don't want to sit on that naughty step.

    I admit you know more about what to do and NOT to do in this event you have created. You can't farm mainlands since you are avoiding EP. You can farm Baha since any drops will only convert to TEP and CC. Do NOT donate carpets. Do NOT donate magic lamps. There are EP possibilities in there. The laws of EP state that when you don't want it, you will get it. :pxD Harvest your Shipwreck with your givers or just take a 3 day sabbatical while this silliness is going on. As you say elsewhere.....up to youuuuuuuuuuuu. But stay off the naughty step and stay in the nest. :)

    :cry::cry: The farm does not have the harbor open. :cry: I don't know if it ever will with the farm in your nest. :cry:

    catdoggie is just a chickadee. :cry: But not aluminum :) And now I'm ready to go for it again xD


    ------- edit and Event changes and new event addition working -------

    Adjustments are being made from the Living Legend Rank on up. No one will loose anything. There is decent participation. The Event is still regarded as extremely difficult. I see a way to increase the number of choices for all. All will still be able to choose what they do and when.

    The upper ranks include specific requirements. I will take the requirements from the specific ranks and simply add to the total number of requirements (steps).

    An additional Event will be made available just as soon as I can make certain that it can be completed. A brief description follows:

    • The current event is set up so that farms have a limited amount of room to make errors and continue an upward movement. Some farms will reach a rank where they can go no further.
    • The next event requires one to have obtained a level in this event before it may even enter into the ranks of the second event. Once a farmer chooses to enter into the second event (or has received the Golden Boot and has sufficient rank) then the first Event is all over for that farm.
    • The farm entering into the second Event may not take their mentor with them. There is no need for a mentor any longer because the second event is main farm oriented.
    • The farm would have already separated itself from the massive number of Aluminum Chickadees in the game. As you have noticed by now, the chickadee farm is moving at a relaxed pace to being BAHA-ready.
    • A very qualified individual now meets requirements with the primary focus being the main farm in the second event.
    • I know farms may not enter into the second event now even if the event faqs were released. I am also patiently awaiting a game change which appears to be in the making. If necessary, I will not wait on the game developers and will carefully consider what I see to occur.
    • The "all but a single seed" steps were for you to be preparing your farm for the to-be-released event and you not realize it until now.

    --------------------------------------------------
    Several new steps have been released

    Please look at the step requirements. Hopefully everyone will have more options to choose from. Please enjoy.

    And that Aluminum Chickadee and Aluminum Mentor remain the worst possible. :eek:

    I haven't logged in much lately to my baby farm @mermaid. but I was wondering about bahamarama. Which quests to do you suggest I should go for to get stars?
    And how can I earn CC in this baby farm?
    So many things have changed since 2010 when I had joined Farmerama! Now it is so easy to level up! But is this good? When you level up you get so many new crops, trees and animals but how can you get a stock of them? And how can you buy all the stables?

    Arielh - in the farmer broke event, most of us do not do the MM event by planting seeds and harvesting. Instead we go to the FSQ select a quest and then start donating the 10 seeds and then every 5 hour the additional 5 seeds. Try to find one that gives the lowest EP's since we are trying not to get EPs. Jack's Back is what I chose. It has only 600 eps or so. There are also quests that just give TEP - if you have Baha open.

    This should be your first goal - to open Baha with out leveling up much. This is the challenge.

    In the beginning, you will have to get EP so you can get stars so you can open Baha. Try to grow things that can be sold to create a revenue stream.

    Try to complete FSQs that give few EPs and lost of starts.

    There is no hurry in this event. Slow & steady avoids the dreaded EPs & the Golden Boot.

    Good luck!

    I am currently lvl 19 on the mainland and 61 on Baha

    I Don't think this counts for anything but I wanted to share that I have just finished building my first Bikini Workshop. All of my little monkeys are so happy to finally have something to do ;) hahaha

    Looks like I have some reading to catch up on...
    farmer_broke event photos I have been posting my pics here but it seems once I post a new one the others become this [​IMG][ IMG]

    How do you post them there spoiler pics? When I can, I have posted farm pic shots (game camera) but I could not take pictures of the MM event I reported on. There was no way to use the in-game camera to screenshot the quest boards. And now that there has been a new MM field opening I have since changed the outcome of the reporting, as I have continued to donate game giving crops. Taking care now to gain any EP which in turn prevents me from gaining any of the needed stars.

    PS: I thought we were to report our progress on the Notable farmer_broke Event Leaders thread or is that just where broke is posting our ranking after reading about it here?? I ask because I would like to stay within the uniform of the threads.?
    Need to catch up on my reading and see what everyone is up to.
