    Viking/Northern lights AGAiN.  It is now going to be 7months between candy farm WTF.  How is it possible to ever say there is even distribution on temp farms. last 4 in a row have been viking or viking based temp farms and before that it was tropical.


    Guess we will get 4 candy farms in a row to make it even.


    Lots of complaints last time viking started then they start another.  They have totally lost touch with players.

    This is totally nuts.  I have plenty of these seeds and will sit it out......again.

  • It is really not a suprise to anyone that they give us yhe same as 24 hours ago.

    This is the way it works.

    If something needs to be done, contact your local "goldplayer" and let him/her deal with GGS

    else you get nothing done with GGS

    Same here.  A little disappointed, but very glad of a break.

    The rune trader has not come back, so maybe it's a mistake.

    But a person can turn this around and look at it in a positive way     Sure we might have lots of Viking seeds already, but we have a chance to earn a few more.   That way we can even skip more temp farms in the future.  We don't have to go full out building up the entire Viking farm    we can just do a little bit to earn enough seeds to skip even more months in a row      I personally have enough Viking seeds to skip a month, but will do a little work on the Viking farm to earn even more seeds to skip even more months

    Yes jane I hear what you are saying it has merit but here is a company so focused on its earnings and really needs to get some goodwill of the players and then they pull this faux pau, really inexcusable.  Why should the players have to try and put a positive spin on this.
  • shazamd (US1)shazamd (US1) US1 Posts: 766
    I just grow flax in the starter field and make tunics......boring, but cheap.

    Where was it that I read that Candy Farm was next with the Country Fair and candy hunt scheduled to start the end of this month....oh yes, right here:
    https://community.goodgamestudios.com/bigfarm/en/discussion/145334/update-the-country-fair-is-here-again

    So will there be two going at once?

    I was looking at it in a positive way.  I personally am very happy for the break.  Earning more cloudberry and gooseberry seeds now won't allow me to skip the next temp where fig or lime seed are offered, will it?  When they're back to back with the same seeds, it's better for me to skip the second one --  then I'll be refreshed and ready for the one that comes after that allows me to trade for different seeds. :)

    I think the Candy Farm will be in March, after the County Fair search event.  This month should have been the Tropical Island.

    As I said last month let us choose which island each player want to start, it would not be hard to be able to donate to the 1 that you want.


    Mods can u please ask developers to start candy as well.

    I have about 9 million runes left.
    Enough houses with the +1 addition, and enough seeds to last me 10 years.

    If you did puy enough effort in the previous 2 or 3 temp farms, you can skip the 2 or 3 that or next.

    As said here somewhere before. Create goodwill with the players and start listening to them.

    But the onlyone they are listening to is "mister goldcard and miss visa"

    Perhaps the guy who knew how to start the other temp farms was let go with the latest re-organization at GGS. LOL
  • Damaria3 (US1)Damaria3 (US1) US1 Posts: 1,737
    LoL  good one @MRG1 (US1)   this just inspires so much confidence in the powers that be (spoken tongue in cheek)
  • The Nordic trader has also had enough of Viking farms, he did not come back either.

    Well that is a problem  who wants to do another winter farm @Boer harmsen (NL1)  and spend any more gold doing the same thing this is going to cut into their gold sales for sure.  Like I said someone really dropped the ball on this one.

    artful as long as you do not start a new temp farm the ship will always ask for the fruit from the last temp farm you started so even though the viking/northern temp farms are the only ones i do i to was looking forward to something else so i did not feel the need to play as i have enough seeds now for probably 6 months so i agree it is not fair they should have done one of the other ones that have not been done in months
  • I was really .........REALLY hopin' to get to use some of the multitudes of LIME seeds I have in stock!!  Oh well

    I didn't know that about the seeds. Thanks.
  • Tropical farm seeds are on the first page of the greenhouse.........AND, all my special viking farm seeds are gone!!  As a matter of fact, I had a special gooseberry goin' when I went on break this evening, and when I collected it, it bounced out as 28, instead of the special seed quantity!!  and I KNOW I had 2 or 3 special blackberry as well as rosehip............egads!!  I wants me stuffs back!!
  • Pietral (US1)Pietral (US1) US1 Posts: 163
    I would assume that they are trying to match the temp farms with the season.  Maybe we'll get 4 months in a row of the tropical farm during the summer.

    The Nordic trader has also had enough of Viking farms, he did not come back either.
    I also have the Northern Lights farm started, and no sign of the runestone trader. How can that work with no way to spend the runestones?
    I also was very disappointed to see the northern/Viking farm for the third time in a row. I already have a surplus of seeds, and still have over 2 million runestones (and no way to spend them).
  • artful (US1)artful (US1) US1 Posts: 6,617
    I just checked -- all my special viking seeds are still there, but on the last page.  However, you are right, the tropical seeds are now up front -- somebody screwed up big time.
