    ,Say, now that is an idea: Set up a "Flea Market"! LOL.  Well at least my dog does not have fleas, even if every other animal on the main and gourmet farms do.  :D
    Flea market?  I LOVE that

    Some may have already discovered this....you can activate your tractor (Amphibian) to increase the fishing quantity when using Oleg.   Broke down and spent the $2,110,000 to send Oleg out for 5 fish (45 minutes wait) and activated the tractor which yielded 7 fish.    
  • I am not able to make any bait in my wind mill. I have 354 fleas. There is no button for it, just goldfish flakes or pellets. Other members of my Co-op can make bait. Any one else having this issue?
  • I am wondering where the tab is to make gold fish bait. I go to my windmill and hit the fish tab, but all I see is to make pellets and flakes. I see nothing to use my fleas to produce bait. please help

    Well I see the fish bowl after finally catching fish (for over two MILLION cash, insane for lousy goldfish.)  
    And the bowl shows the number of fish, and I can add flakes to feed them.  I didn't make that many flakes, but it seems the food meter went all the way to the top.   I have no clue how long that lasts, or how often I need to make food.  LIke everything else they roll out here they don't include ANY instructions at all.

    Then I go look at the coop pond.   Seems there are NO fish in it?   How does one get the fish from the bowl to the pond?  One of my coops they are feeding the pond but still no clue if or how many fish are there.

    Then I asked one of my coops what our big prize is for all this fiddledeeamagaroll. 
    A fish bowl piece of deco (that doesn't "fit" in ANY deco I already have, nor do I have room to squeeze into my crowded farm which as it is now my "farm" looks more like a well… ha… flea market than farm.)

    And village happiness.

    Here's the thing.  I stopped caring about the village long ago.  There is ABSOLUTELY ZERO REWARD and a whole lot of expense and all we do is upgrade one building after another.  FOR WHAT?  
    So I should worry how happy the workers are in an area I already deemed as unfit to farm?  Only ever go there when they have one of those hidden thing hunts.  That's it!


    And then there are the fleas.    Yes I do know this is just a game and those are just dumb graphics BUT…. 
    If you ever had pets WITH real fleas you will understand.  The things are gross.  They cause misery to pets, are a HUGE expense to get rid of, they bite people if populations get big enough, including outside (it was fun getting them out of my huge back yard.)  and again expensive.  I treat my dog every single month.  NOT CHEAP!    
    SO yea, I get these are just dumb graphics.   Still.  They represent really gross BUGS I really don't find "entertaining" to look at.
    For a game that won't serve bacon in the gourmet farm because it might "offend people" to then infest every farm animal with fleas?   WTH? 
    And as a game element, what a STUPID IDEA!   Nothing short of pure stupid here.   FISH DO NOT COME IN CONTACT WITH A LAND PARASITE.    Ever see a goldfish jumping up on a cow to pick off fleas?  
    Ever see a fisherman try to put a flea on a hook?
    Anyone ever bother to READ the label on fish food?  It's mostly corn meal now, with some seaweed, maybe some crushed bugs (flies not fleas) dried worms, and maybe some ground shellfish.
    ALL of these we already have.  Corn, fishing, heck even flies could hang around the silos. Worms could be dug out with crops.  Lots of much better ideas here for a fish bait/food.
    But fleas? HAD to come from some geek who never owned a pet in his life.
    Another idea would have been, one of the side crops just happens to leave a wet field.  Daphnia (WATER FLEAS) just might exist there.  Harvest in wet fields.   Make one more side crop of earth worms and daphnia.  SImple.  

    SO all in all, seems this event has another nine days to go?    I am working the temp farm, ran out of special seeds.  And my coops are always doing missions so I'll log in to help.  But that's it.   Two million dollar goldfish, flea infested (already buggy game) 
    For a stupid piece of deco?   

    I'm done with this.  
    So will my goldfish go belly up?  OH wait, we don't get dead animals here.  Just parasites.  
    Maybe they will sit on the back sides of their fishbowl holding a food bowl.  Waiting for fleas to hop in. yea.
  • On my Main farm mill, the tab is at the top, just right of the tab to mill chicken feed, etc. When you click on the fish tab, it has 2 pages and is able to make flakes, bait, and pellets.

    mine only shows 1 page for flakes and pellets
  • If we upgrade the fishing pond, can we still donate pellets to it?
    Found out the answer is no.
    Seriously?  You can't donate additional pellets after you upgrade it?

    Does anyone know for certain?  Thanks

    Hi,

    Some of my players doesn't get possibility to purchase Goldfish for Dollars only by gold?
    And they can't produce goldfish in the mill as well? Is there a level you need to have to be able to this?

    Should Coop. be able to see catch fish in the fishing see? We have provided feed, but can't see any fish.

    The bottom centered progress bar.......Does this add a VHP point to the Village pond permanently?  I can see that it takes a lot more points on this bar.

    No, it become a bonus on your village pond as long as your co-op keep it well fed using pellets

    i cannot donate pellets that i produced (and i have plenty lol) to the village goldfish pond. the button is greyed out. Anyone else? Do we need to upgrade the fish pond first? I have rescued a few goldfish already and i got bucketloads of pellets.. And ideas?

    I am having the same problem! and I just harvested 300 more in my windmill but my inventory says I have none. All the goldfish flakes I made today did not show up in my inventory. I'm sure there is a way for them to check and verify that I have made goldfish flakes, but where are they.

    Is there a reason the WWC points for fishing have stopped since the introduction of these truly disgusting fleas?

    make sure you are producing pellets and not flakes. the flakes feed the fish in the event and the pellets feed the pond. On your main farm silo page 2 is the pellets and page 1 has the flakes

    They changed them.  They now have a different icon that looks like a fish.

    You cannot donate until it reaches at least level 2

    Thank you I just wish they would fix what is broken and leave what is working alone.

    After certain amount of goldfish rescued, you might need to add more than one just to improve rescue points per second by one.

    @CrazyBigfarm55 (US1) If you hover over the picture of goldfish flakes in your windmill (on the menu to make them) does it say you have any there? Also if you click the event truck & hover over the timer for next feed, does it say there that you have any? Or has the timer expired & your fish automatically ate them all.?

    INT1 should be back up by now, a couple of servers went down this morning, sorry about that :/

    @bevk (INT1) The fish icon was the original one, which was changed to Oleg's face, because the fish looks exactly like the cod & was confusing, we have no idea why the fish icon has suddenly returned, don`t be surprised if it disappears again"Bev L"

    now i tried on a different computer, and its the same.....
    @Tinzen (SKN1) We have lots of people the same now, not only is the bait misisng, bit also the cash options for sending out Oleg :/

    We will let you know as soon as get any news.

    Does the amphibian affect the numbers of goldfish caught?
    would oleg gain WWC points when i send him out for goldfish?

    @WascallyWabbit'

    Can answer the first one - yes, the Amphibian affects the number of goldfish that Oleg brings back.  If you send him out for 5 goldfish (at a cost of $1 or $2 Million, whatever it is depending on your level), and activate the Amphibian at the 50% level, he'll bring back 7 Goldfish.

    Dunno on the 2nd one, I wasn't paying attention. Even if he does, the low amount of WWC points would just be a drop in the bucket anyway. :)
