Mission RP Divjsion
My question is, has anybody worked out how that total RP is divided amongst the competitors?
e.g. 1st gets half, 2nd gets a quarter, 3rd gets an eigth etc.

Sadly, I can't find the data from my tests anymore. But that was the important result, so the lesson was you should always do your best, regardless of what anyone else does.
I did a reputation points analysis 15 months ago, and came to the same conclusion.
If there were at least 2 active players in a mission, the RP you got was determined by the quantity you harvested and your final rank in the mission and nothing else. RP boosters were then applied.
If you had a solo mission, or were the only active player, the RP was determined as if you were ranked third in the mission.
I had 3 missions where I finished with the same quantity of 2539 wildflowers.
For 1st place, I received 10,548 RP.
For 2nd place, I received 7,141 RP.
For 3rd place, I received 5,408 RP.
So 2nd place gets roughly 2/3 of the RP for 1st place, and 3rd place gets roughly 1/2 the RP of 1st place.
This was before the 5 new missions were added, and the rebalancing of RP awarded for each mission type, so I can't guarantee that the rules are still the same.
I have put in a request for more details about how RP in missions is calculated & allocated, can't promise anything, because as you know GGS don`t usually give out that type of info, but like to leave it to players to figure these things out, so will have to wait & see what they say.
Thankyou guys , you are the tops (John performs Happy Dance)
I've had missions where I "won" 1st place with very small numbers (usually a dung mission, I hate those) and got fewer RP & Certificates than when I've come in 6th place in a high production mission (like eggs), because everyone was putting up numbers in the thousands..
Long story short, don't worry about what "place" you finish in. The more people pump up production in the mission, the better it is for everyone IN the mission.
Each player in a mission gets RP based on their own score & then, in addition, each (except the one in last place) also gets a % of the total RP earned by all the players.
Any players with 0 score are eliminated, so a mission of 6 players where 2 players have 0 score, will count as a mission of 4 players, with the 4th place player being "last".
The % of the total RP that each player earns, varies depending on the number of active players in the missions:
2 players = 100% - 0%
3 players = 100% - 50% - 0%
4 players = 100% - 90% - 10% - 0%
5 players = 100% - 90% - 40% - 10% - 0%
6 players = 100% - 90% - 80% - 20% - 10% - 0%
So as you can see, it is definitely much more beneficial for lower level players to be drawn again those with much higher scores & even big gold users, as long as they do not come in last place.
Thanks Wabbit.

Yet again you display star qualities. Your efforts are so much appreciated. Have one on me c(_)
The "Increase" box with the numbers 5, 30, 65 & 130 need some explanation. Hopefully someone that has it built can provide a little insight.
I can think of other tractors they could have brought us. How about one with tools or fireworks!
5, 30, 65 and 130 are minutes (130 = 2 hour +10 minutes): after you activate the Stackmaster using option 1, 2, 3, 4 respectively
In other words the time you have to use the Stackmaster before the activation expires
:-)
So can you only shelve *1* mission (for free) during that time frame, at which point you have to wait 8-48 hours to be able to do it again, or can you shelve an unlimited amount of times during that 5-130 minutes?
It will not take long and you'll have to refresh the page to see the changes.
Plant Special (Corn/Wildflower) Seeds, Have Full Cows, Pigs, & Ducks ready.
Start 30 or 65 minute Stackmaster timer.
Shelve everything that isn't a Corn/Wildflower, Milk or Egg mission. Harvest, then shelve THAT mission until you hit all 3.
Yeah, no potential for abuse there.
At least it'll be limited to 8 hours, but I foresee a LOT of 0 score missions with red dots in our future.
You can shelve several times, but each time you got to wait up to 5 minutes while the system assigns you to another mission
it seems an interesting new machine, and yes the cool down time is quite long indeed
Other interesting numbers in your garage show that the Stackmaster is more expensive than the 8 machines we already have: it requires 150 certificates, 6 tool boxes, 800 gold (if you select activation mode 3 or 4 )
I do the same with the Farm Flash. It's not worth 3 tools for an extra 10 fruitcake. Use 3 tools just to make an extra $7,140? No thanks. I'll save the tools for something else.
However, if you were not in that mission, but after I shelve it I get an egg mission & you are in that one, then you are going to benefit from all my eggs, which you would not have done if I was still sitting looking at the Rutabaga mission.
There will be times when it will add a 0 that would not have been there before, for example, if my 2nd missions was another Rutabaga & you happened to be in that one, I would shelve it again & then you would have a 0 that would not have been there before, but as you can see that is just one variation of what could occur & they are not all bad, so it will be interesting to see just what the effect is overall when a lot of people start to do it.
Is there a new visual or are there more visuals for our garage when the new machines are built / upgraded ?
New Farm Machines
With this update, you will also have 4 new farm machines available with 7 levels each (no visual difference between the levels)!

Can you please explain this to me?
Mission 1: Milk, I got 1st place with 5355 milk collected. Total amount of milk collected by everyone in the mission was 10258. I received 31689 RP and 227 certificates (no bonuses except for my farm machines).
Mission 2: Milk, I got 1st place with 5355 milk collected. Total amount of milk collected by everyone in the mission was 9068. I received 31689 RP and 227 certificates (no bonuses except for my farm machines).
If I'm also supposed to get a percentage of the total amount of RP collected by everyone in the mission, then why did I get exactly the same amount of RP both times, despite the total amount of RP collected being different (due to a different amount of total milk collected)?
He will kill me for sending you to him with an RP question, but Marowit is the one to ask. I did show him your post & it may be to do with rounding, but he is also checking that everything is working as it should be.
