"How to work towards rewards?
Every time you harvest goods to fulfill one of Santa's requests, you add to a progress meter shared with your cooperative."
It sounds like this year's event counts harvesting as fulfilling an order. Is this true? Last year, donating (or selling) toward the event was what completed orders.
@AlabasterGamer (US1) During phase 1 you will need to harvest to fulfill your order. Phases 2 and 3 can be completed by donating products.
@ashim (IN1) The FHP (farm happiness) will count on whichever farm you place the decoration on.
@Qat (US1) No worries, Santa will arrive on December 11th.
Why is not it in the German forum in it

We'll forward your concerns and let you know what we find out about this.
Because you said we will get village dollars and our decos will also have village happiness.
Edit: And what about the fish? Will orders demand also fish or fish products?
I would think just avoid harvesting the items on your list, but this will end up hurting your co op.
Last year, this period was "collect" not "donate". Is it definitely "donate"?

I certainly hope that participation isn't forced. *deep sigh*
Or is this wishful thinking?
I simply can't believe GGS would like us to shut off members; to tell members not to farm for a few weeks. No way José!!
Taking two weeks off isn't an option, either, as several -- me included -- are working the Festive Farm.
We'll just have to see.

Can you elaborate on "at the same time"? As in only when all are currently online..? I dont quite understand the difference in collection between the blue and cyan flakes. What about time difference between individual farmers within the coop? What if some are not logged on certain hours of the day?
"all farm products" - so will those snowflakes fall just on main farm or all farms?
May we have a sneak peak on the very final decoration too..?
- what does "at the same time" means. What if many members only farm a few hours a day? And do they drop everywhere or only at MF?
- If a member decides not to participate that week because of other duties; so only farms a few hours, what happens when he/she harvests exactly those goods that are mentioned in the order? Is there indeed no "start button"?
I guess the sneak peak will come on a later moment in the event, like last year, they showed us the final Frosty Palace (or what was it's name?) 2 weeks before the end.
That's what some of us were focusing on. My coop probably won't have many participants, including me. That's just how we roll. We were just wondering if participation could be, as Big Beck said, "accidental." We want to avoid that, if possible.
No messing about this year! No easy way out! Everybody works (except those being inactive etc.), or the co-op gets stuck on chapter one forewer. It applies to all four chapters. In other words - you harwest needed item, you are in. Perfectly in line with known GG philosophy of pushing people to play using any thinkable way including peer pressure, accidents or "accidents" etc.
Then as soon as you finish your order you move to phase 2 and can DONATE (not harvest) for your unfinished team mates: (Notice it's phases which differ to be "harvest" or "donation", not chapters. All four basic chapters (chapter 5 not included) have 3 phases: Harvest, Guardian donate and Bonus.donate) No problem here, as plenty of seaweed stuff and gold secure your success. Again fully compliant to known GG philosophy to push for ample gold spending.
GG actually got more creative this year then last year so I see it as an improvement of a sort, although expect most will hate that improvement. But if you understand that GG is bent on quick money grab, not on long term players satisfaction, this will be no surprise and the game with it's development will be a lot easier to read for you.
Since balancers have reliably been the worst part of the development chain throughout the years always blowing up the best efforts of other creative components I wouldn't count on reasoneable orders to make it fun. But hey, miracless happen as we've seen with gold purchases being removed from fish quest chain, so who knows............. Stay tuned, it's just a few days away.
