Labor of Love Event Strategy

No... I based my figures off 4 fields with the exception of the Rain Forest, which I have covered in trees.

 

Thanks! Now I do not have to hire the accounting firm Dewey Cheatham & Howe to do these calculations.

My strategy is to grow grow grow and harvest harvest harvest till the cows come home. I have all my fields ready to harvest the moment the clock strikes 6am after setting up all my CAC and whatnots. I use an old school cooking timer to remind me to check my farm. I know..I know..I could use my phone or the other gadzillion ap options..I like my little timer.

 

I screw , I thought that event start tomorrow, So, nothing prepare & just send my
normal gift to my neighors & friends.
OK , 20000 junk is really big. But Ialways got through it.
So, after I harvest my short term crop, I will start the initial planting,
then had a long overnight crop.

Edit : I'm not the worst, my good friend still not come out from the busy lunar
new year. She had just plant main farm with carnation & ginger on rain forest.
She say thank god she still had baha main field to used.

 

As soon as the event started my farm has become slow. Moving from one field to another is taking lot of time. Not even started harvesting or planting. Slow....

 

Well, just harvested for the morning.. very slow like everyone else.

One tip --- I am starting my 2 X 2 with supergrow, etc as normal. Then I filled in all my extra spaces with 1x1 plots of corn. The time is just under the event crop and I expect corn to be a good investment for the upcoming mouse breeding event.

 

Posted this in chit chat, but I thought it could be useful here too
"Playing, as always
harvested my overnight grows and the drop rate was impressive; 70 love poems, 62 ribbons, 56 cake pans. My overnight crops were long ish, but not overly... Blueberries, Tea and Canola."

 

With WI and Fruit Cake, my water, manure and SG brought my event crop down to 54 minutes. Drops were ribbon 84, tins 102, poems 138.

 

Got
poem 155
tin 139
ribbon 126

Started milling 17 cakes and 12 bouquets. They don't need the event crops.

 

WOW best drops I have ever had ... 130 heart cake tins ...119 love poems 98 ribbons

 

Hahaha. Love your witty Beatles' remake of Can't Buy Me Love Mir85! Too funny

 

I tried reading the poem in the 'Love Poem ' drop. Even tried downloading and zooming it. Couldn't make out a single word. Might be it has got Mir's poem in it.

Listened to the song just now. Music is good.

 

Stupid stupid stupid ...i forgot to use CAC on my first crops ...first BOOBOO of the day ***Goes to the scream room***
The sad thing is i put a notice on my desk with BIG letters saying use CAC
That was very useful .....NOT lol

 

Don't worry Nellie_Noodles, you will make it up. It is all in the game.

Out of 20 feeds for cat, I got
delicious gift - 3
floral gift - 2

 

Don't know how far I'll get but, I'll give it the ol college try. (One for the gipper)

 

Nice initial drops: 117 heart cake tin, 121 love poem, 111 ribbon with my carnation/ginger/long workshops & stables mix.
Thanks to all who provided info and strategy (don't want to miss anyone)!

Great song Mir!

 

Love the song Mir!

I knew once I saw those animals on my farm I was going to want to play. So glad I went ahead and set up for drops yesterday. Now I just need to grow the gazillion junks on only 3 fields as my glade is full of mice and the rainforest is full of trees.

Hopefully all that complicated milling and gifting will make more sense once I have enough stuff to start focusing on it.

Don't even know which drop to start off gifting to neighbors. I'm thinking the heart shaped tin but I'm going to have to look at it again once I've got more coffee in me. Good luck to all!

 

Thanks everyone

I think the poems are the most useful drop to gift. We need almost twice as many of them as the other two. From my initial harvest it looks like the poems have a higher drop rate, but not that much higher. It's also possible to buy heart-shaped cakes and bouquets in the market if one is short on tins and ribbons. No such option for the poems.

 

Very Nice Poem Mir85 As I Could not Agree More that we Cannot Buy Love. As Love or Even True Love is such a Rare Commodity that we all Treasure in Life.

I had a Scare today as I Collapsed in Hospital was there for my Fiancee. But I have always had a phobias of Hospitals. I got sent to A and E as i was discharged within 40 Mins since i recovered from a Fainting Spell, So i am ok now Phew

Only started this Event couple hours ago. I am surprise with Amount of Drops i got

• 228 Heart Cake Tins
• 255 Love Poems
• 229 Ribbons

12ss12 I have too Experience Slowness in This Event Even using Harvester is slow too and Changing Fields

I just Been Nuking Some Event Crops so i am able to seed All Five Fields of 1x1 of Heart Blooms. Once i done that any surplus will be used to make as Many Love Letters as I can 1st Target is 45 Love Letters to The Cat, wait and see how many Floral and Delicious Gifts i am able to get

 

Mooboy, Take care of yourself. May be you didn't eat properly. Hope your Fiancee is well too. I too have fear of hospitals. If I have to go to hospital, I try not see gruesome cases. I just try to keep my eyes only on seeable patients. Even in TVs and movies, I don't see gruesome scenes. Just switch over the channels and come back after few mins.

Finished cats. Switching over to other two.

 

Hope you feel better Mooboy
