Big Farm "Worldwide Championship" - WWC
General Information:
The Worldwide Championship is a Long Term Points Event (LTPE)
This event will always last approximately 30 days. This first edition will start on the 7th of July, next Friday.
A new icon will show up on your farm 1 week before the event starts (which you have already seen). If you click on this icon you’ll be able to see the WWC calendar - Some events (including the CC) have been rescheduled during the WWC to allow you as many opportunities as possible to earn WWC points from them.
While the WWC is running, you’ll collect points and unlock activity rewards along the way by participating in the Horse Season, Temporary farm, Hard Work event, Cooperative Championship, Cooperative Village, Fishing and Fishing Hard Work event & more.
There will be individual rewards based on your ranking within your server and global rewards based on the performance of the best 100 players from all the servers internationally (more info below).
There will be 500 (100 points x 5 types of point) activity rewards.
WWC rewards include consumables, house appearances and decorations with VHP!
How it works:
To get activity rewards and climb the rankings you’ll need to collect 5 types of points:
Horse Points:
by participating in horse challenges (against the NPCs: Lester, George & Tessa and against other players)
finishing horse training (based on the amount of horseshoes used)
from ship loads
from greenhouse harvests
Event Points:
by completing themed event tasks.
by earning shells in the Tropical Island farm.
Cooperative Points:
by harvesting edge plants
producing goods in the cooperative village
upgrading cooperative village buildings [Edit: July 7th]
improving a horse in the horse meadow
missions
earning rewards from the Coop Championship.
Farm Points:
by harvesting from your farms
earning activity and ranking rewards in the Hard Work Event (George’s)
Fish Points:
by playing the fishing mini-game and deepsea fishing
sending Oleg to the sea (For FXP or fishing)
producing in the Restaurant & Dockyard
earning activity and ranking rewards in the Fishing Hard Work Event.
The activity rewards you get with each type of point can help you getting more of the other types of points!
You will be able to track how you are doing on each particular activity on the event menu.
The Top 1 farmer will get a new themed building:
Top 1 WWC reward: Grandhouse Building (stages 1-7)
Same size as 3 houses but with more workers and a lower happiness penalty
Championship Trader
In addition to the points, you will also receive a special currency, based on your weekly server rank and your performance: Championship Coins.
Championship Coins can be used with a special trader which will always be active after the 1st week of the event. (In this first edition, the trader should be active from the start even though you won’t have any coins yet).
The trader will present a regular selection of consumables alongside some special items which are only purchasable during the WWC.
Appearances and all the themed production buildings will be purchasable from the trader.
Booster Decorations that provide a passive boost will also be purchasable from the trader (Passive boost means that the boost will stay in effect for as long as you have the deco built on one of your farms):
Championship decoration: a 2x2 decoration with high VHP that provides a passive boost to reputation points earned in missions.
League decoration: a 2x2 decoration with high VHP that gives a passive boost to medals earned in the Cooperative Village League.
Storage Decoration: a 3x3 decoration that provides a boost (%) to your storage size.
A boat with 100 stages that is better than all the boats currently available.
A range of very effective Specialists.
Championship Coins will be received via the event ranking reward dialog and will be visible in the collection tab of the farm management and the trader interface & equipment tab in your inventory. (EDIT July 14th)
You will be able to spend your Championship Coins up to 1 week after the event has finished.
International Rewards
International status information: every Friday the event is running we will send you an ingame message with the current positions of all the servers.
After the WWC ends, we will gather the total amount of points of the top 100 farmers from each server and send you a message ingame with the top 3 winning servers! The complete ranking will be posted on our forums (within the following week) so you can see how your server is doing too, in case you’re not one of the top 3 on the first edition of the WWC.
There are no international rankings ingame.
All the rewards will be credited during the week following the end of the WWC.

Comments
With so many events starting on Friday (July 7th), for the WWC, the start times need to be staggered, so that BF doesn't come crashing down around us hehe
Here is a list of the planned start times (all CEST):
Before you ask, no we do not know the times for Steve yet
We messed up!
The rewards posted for the Gold, Silver & Bronze leagues, contained "example" numbers instead of the actual amounts, as there was a mix-up between the timing of entering the correct data & posting the announcement - It has now been corrected.
It is not all bad news, the bronze rewards & some of the silver are now better than before, there a few less mystery boxes in the gold rewards & no avatar. Sadly Steve will be spending less time on the winning servers, though 7 days did seem a bit too good to be true.
The biggest change is to the range of points needed for the rewards - Instead of 10,000 to over 10,000,000 the total range is 20,000 to over 1,000,000 which is far more realistic.
Apologies for the confusion, we hope that you have fun with this event!
The beautiful dog avatars for the new horse season have now been added to the Announcement
Here is the list (so far) of bug fixes in the update:
Reminder: The Fuku tokens, for players who's session was interrupted, (in the Shinkei-Suijaku Event), by the hotfix on June 28th, should be returned with the update.
No ETA for the update yet, other than "sometime this afternoon" CEST
In the meantime, when the WWC starts tomorrow, you will start to see 5 different icons popping up on your farms, each time you do something that earns you some WWC points for one of the categories. This is what they will look like....
= Farm points
= Horse points
= Fish points
= Cooperative points
= Event points
As usual, hovering over the icon will show you how many points you won.
EDIT: Fishing Icon Updated | Wabbit
