This global goal of helping farmers is imposible. I've gotten only 10 helps. Too hard to reach goal and get prize . Any thoughts?

This global goal of helping farmers is imposible. I've gotten only 10 helps. Too hard to reach goal and get prize . Any thoughts? Hi tess . Not really. (Answering your question) I have the advantage of babyfarms. They provided me with the necessary amount. But nevertheless it took some time. If you are in a good neighboorhood you could help each other, this may be a way to make it a little bit easier for everyone. If you're alone, it's difficult. You have to spend much time for the DD and to be patient as well. The most help requests were for boat, board and town. I was lucky and found a farm which was asking for revival. But I had to look many times before I was finally successful. I don't get it why SC excluded town, board and boat requests. What this means is a mystery to me. Perhaps has someone an explanation for this special event.... |

tess- I have help I can put up for you, are you able to message me & I can give you my farm Tag # ? I know we’re running out of time though.
I do sympathise though, in fact I’ve been purposefully advertising items that lower level farms would see advertised & putting bushes/trees up in batches just for this very reason- I’ve had lots of lower level farms help which really makes me happy😊.

Oh this makes me sad.  Tess me too, I can invite you to my baby farm NH where they are safe farms (ie self-contained baby farm NH where no other farms that can accidentally water), mark some to get you to goal, and then you can rejoin your own NH. PM me if this will help and give me your tag. I can then invite you and leave watering so that you can join and leave at your leisure anytime before the event ends. I’ll check back for messages at 6pm, 8pm and 10pm EST. Good luck!!! |

Oh, Tess, I also just realized you don’t have to be in the NH… you can just send the tag and I’ll send friend invite and leave the watering on for you. Then you can unfriend once you’ve watered. Checking again at 8 and 10 now….

I think it doesn’t much matter at this point anyway bc goal looks unattainable. 10m+ (8.3%) helps still to go with only 6.75 hrs (7%) time left, and most of North America will be in bed for half that time.
It is strange to have the nosy watering and no boat helps in the event. Especially now that watering is sooooooo painful with the big increases in land compared to what it used to be.
Oh well, c’est la vie. Will still check at 10pm est if you want helps for the watering. Good luck!!

Geraldh- I’m sorry you’re also having problems getting enough helps. You posted 4 hours ago so probably too late to help you too😟-sorry.
We’re all on different time zones, it’s 5am here in the England, I just checked to see if tess had replied.
Anyway- I’m going to go ahead and put the last of the trees/bushes up. I’ll advertise them as usual hoping to attract lower level or single neighbourhood struggling farms. I don’t keep followers, only one friend,& only one neighbour- for various reasons, so they’re pretty safe. Hopefully they’ll help someone else struggling & help with the goal if we haven’t got there yet.
Well- I’ve done something I rarely do !! But every tree/bush that could be harvested & put up for help I’ve now done. So an extra 2-3 hundred , hoping that helps the overall goal, which is still going up. I staggered the helps & have counted around a dozen that helped, most low level farms which is good- now cross fingers !!

This global goal of helping farmers is imposible. I've gotten only 10 helps. Too hard to reach goal and get prize . Any thoughts? i know the event is over and we didn’t make it but I had an experience that really annoyed me. I had been saving waters since I saw the event was coming. I do this so my children who are in my NH with me can achieve the goal without spending too much of their allocated screen time searching for helps. As part of my preparation I don’t help anyone outside the NH for a week, so I’m not on anyone’s last helpers list, I don’t put any adverts in the paper for 48 hours and I don’t do any helps in the NH after the event has started so I’m not on the leader or latest contributor lists. I deleted all followers the previous day and made sure the was no new ones. So I took quite a few precautions. I had enough for the three of them to complete all levels and some left over so I could put an advert in the paper so others could do them. We finished dinner, did homework and were getting ready to do the helps. While the children were getting their devices I started flagging the helps, over 300 in total. Within the 30 seconds from me finishing putting the waters up and the children logging on someone had taken every single one of them. I cannot work out how they found my farm, but why take all of them, why not leave some so others can achieve their goals. None of the truck, boat or town helps had been completed. When I checked out the farmer they were over level 280. With extra allocation of screen time in exchange for more chores the children did reach their goals - unfortunately the overall goal wasn’t reached so they missed out on the big reward anyway 😞 |

lizdiz That's a very sad story. In two ways. A greedy and impertinent farmer who was only looking for his own benefit and the disappointment for such a behaviour, secondly not reaching the goal at all. It's a pity that you can't determine why that happened. In my opinion you took every precaution possible.
