Special Delivery Strategy Thread

Thanks illy and Mooboy for the figures!

I have half my fields in animals right now, as I was building stock after finishing the last event. Trees will go up later tonight, but that works fine for me as I will be out of town much of tomorrow. Will make a little bit of a late event start, but not too much.

It may seem a little obvious to point out, but if there are any newer farmers doing this event please note what Dienstag and spotsbox have mentioned about the harvester prizes. I made the mistake of triggering all harvester prizes at once when I first started doing game events, and lost much of the machinery time.

Personally, I will do one Level 1 task at a time, skipping to Levels 2 and above until the harvester functions run out each time, to get the most out of the harvester.

 

Nappy cake...haha that's funny
Ewwww!!!

 

I went the overkill route also. I'm sure it wasn't necessary to put all my trees out, but I did it anyway. Wouldn't it be cool to get all, or at least most, of the event drops in one day? Let's hope the drops are as generous as the previous event's were.
I made a diaper cake for a baby shower once. Very cute, but not the least bit edible

 

Might skip this one... no CR. Newer players NEED/WANT any and all CRs that they can get since we are cut off from acquiring SO may of the other big/valuable perks all the old timers have, collecting dust in their inventory

 

Another event already... *sigh* And another right after that... Taking some of the fun out of the game.

The problem with diaper cakes is that they tend to stick to the roof of the mouth. Takes a lot of "beverage of your choice" to wash them down...

I'll be home tomorrow but probably busy. I saw this after I had just planted some 9h crops on all five fields... I guess I'll do the trees in the morn... Not a very high requirement. Should be easy to get enough drops I'm only going to do two fields with trees the rest I'll continue with crop growing, as is my preferred configuration.

This looks like a pretty easy event actually. It seems like the last month or two all the events are getting labeled "medium" even tho I've found some to be easy and some to be difficult because they were so time consuming (and boring like the fishing one).

Hopefully we can avoid some of the mind numbing repetition in recent strategy threads...

Good luck y'all. Have fun!

Cute RL nappy cake!

 

yea I put all my baha trees out and as many as I could on mainland I did leave my animals out on two of my main lands also mixed with trees lol maybe this will be a good chance for me to get some of my fruits ect... built up since most of my trees never see the light of day

 

Remember to save your gifts until the start of the event tomorrow!

 

AMEN to that! They could give us at least a day or two (A week perhaps) to relax a bit before we hit it running yet again. It was the endless events that caused me to quit the first time. I've since wised up and realize I can just skip the event.

OH! I almost forgot the whole reason I'm here. Every event I come to the forum to check the figures in the strategy guide. I'm always thankful for the efforts put forth by the veterans.

Thank you illy and Mooboy for crunching the numbers this time around. They really help this old guy. Pipps

 

What a great excuse not to harvest for 20 hrs ...... well maybe longer for me. Put out all the trees everywhere.

Can't wait till all that cheap tre fruit starts leaving the barns. Time for the broke farm to start seriously thinking about the TOP 1000 .

Possible event strategy: Throw the animals in the hopper and be done. No effort required.

 

I've got a chicken special going in the mud pie market, broke dear, feel free to snatch them up . I've put out a bunch of trees in both main and baha (rainforest is mostly trees all the time anyway), along with a few varied pens, and all my saved mystery seedlings are now percolating on both baha and my magic glade. Biggest challenge now is not caving to the temptation to harvest them before tomorrow.

 

After harvesting all of the event crop I needed for the last event. I decided a farm makeover was due. So I went in and planted a ton of trees on the mainland and on the rain forest. I now have my farm producing trees, animals, and crops in line with some of the quests I'm working on. About time too. Piecemeal just isn't cutting it.

Now, for this event, I see that prudent use of the land will call for even more trees to be planted. Goody! I've got plenty. Alas, so much for my well laid plans of crop harvesting. Oh well.

The big question is: "When will the next Baby Boom start?"

SirPippen... See 12SS12's post #12

 

I'm well aware of you and your chickens on the mud_pie_man market. I da know what mud pie is doing these days. I need to look. Mud pie man won't be buying any of your high priced chickens though.

I need chickens on the broke farm. Doesn't look like I'll get back to 100,000 with this event. About to put 12,000 of um in the BAHA cruncher here so I won't have to look at it for 3 months. My chicken supplier stopped producing chickens here so I am in shock. Always something on the broke farm.

I believe MARYMAR is on this market too. MARYMAR has a friend but I didn't like the price of the bats offerred but bought um anyway.

Into the parrot feed but about 30,000 shy of my goal and won't be getting it anytime soon. Problems problems!

 

it's just that the XXL trees wanted to see the sun a bit. Like catalpa, lemon or yellow pear. They will be back in the barn soon enough.

 

*Yawn* Morning all.
After the most wonderful week I have ever had in the game a good sleep is well welcomed.
I think this will be a great event, just trees. I didn't kill any frogs no stress I now have trees that will be ready at all times but a tree week? no issue.
Even I got the math right, makes me think it will be a kind event as even I got it right!
I got most fields decked out in trees, I want them done asap, then when all diapers are done <who came up with the theme?> I can return to crops faster.

I think I finally got to the edge of the point were the farm can take the blow of an event and keep right on going sweet

ming well, that farm will give it a go and be happy were ever it shuts down.

 

High priced? Why, I offer only the finest free range organic chickens, hand fed with home milled feed (and all the bugs they can eat), no pesticides, steroids, or other nasty surprises, grown in small(ish) batches to keep them stress free, sold only for the Boom - no snake food here! - in lovely lots of 100 so they have plenty of company and time in the love shack, and all I ask is a small compensation for my time and efforts and loving care. Thankfully I rarely have trouble getting my price, less stingy farmers than the brokester out there.

 

DOH! How in the world did I miss that!? It's in PINK too!

Thanks 12ss12 for posting this.

And special thanks to Banjoman for waking me up to it!

I missed it too, pipps, don't feel bad . May actually be able to catch the last hour of it, which is all we should really need. Love shack is full and ready to be harvested *don't harvest love shack...don't harvest love shack!!!)

 

I totally missed that little piece of info so thanks to all (pipps for asking, banjoman for responding and 12ss12 for posting).

Spots I'm on that same market but your chickens are a bit pricey for me, lovely though I'm sure they are.

 

Pricey chickens
I know I hold them till the price gets obscene! if I go down due to demand, they go in lots of 500, they be work! I could have much more lovely items out after all.

How times have changed...
