Its tomorrow anyway and I don't see the point of giving info when people don't have the time to read it in advance
I also don't see the point in launching an event as soon as the update is done, with a note like the one you just posted (not that its your fault @WascallyWabbit ) which explains little to nothing, unless GGS is assuming people will be sitting there to wait for the update and then the info and then will be "playing happily ever after"
GGS getting more and more careless
clearly the village was making little to no gold for ggs, so hence this change
so instead of a collect as plod along normally village, we now have an 'event' village, very transparent
while they're looking at the village, why not get rid of VH on decos, it's pointless, the purpose it was stated to serve when first introduced has never come to fruition, players have no interest in swapping decos in and out
and it was introduced with the new layout feature that allowed us to move our decos about with ease while reworking our farm layouts, that was bugged to hell and went the way of the dodo, but now we're stuck with decos that have timers on that make reworking your farm layouts painfully tedious
and why the removal of medals and a medal shop? that part of the village was actually useful (as opposed to most parts which are useless), this just looks like the latest in a long line of ways that ggs is removing quality 'free stuff' from players
nothing about this village change appears to hold anything of any value real value to players, looks like just another gold cow
apart from hw stuff as you go (which will be largely rubbish if ggs stick to the current trend), is there any lasting benefits of placing high in the new league? if all it does is give bragging rights, that's meaningless anyway, that has no value to it at all
Its like a kid bro/sis of wwc /cc/c hwe and u will see how much good stuff is there for u to enjoy for example in cc u gain 20wet pig feed no there is no such rewards in this we have 30 wet cow feed oh yes rewards upgrade from 20 to 30 yeah
I'm curious about the progress on HTML5 though. Flash has been overloaded for a long time and they keep adding more.
Also, don't thump the Wabbit. I think GGS has it all backwards with what they ask their volunteer moderators to do. The announcements and answers should be coming from the CM (paid employee, I believe) and the moderators should be reviewing our comments, slapping us when we get out of line, and answering questions from their experience (rather than GGS support).
So....Who starts the challenges? Deputies, etc.? Can they be lined to come in a certain order? Could a leader pick three challenges in a row? so as to have things manageable. Or am I only dreaming?

The medal shop was too good to be true for GGS standards
It was simple and effective, one thing to be adopted for all events not just the village league: every player in the server receives medals and can use them in the medal shop to buy one or more items
It doesn't matter how many medals, what matters is that the medals are a reward and they can be used to choose an item to buy. Obviously every player will select the item they need the most, from collection items to boat crew and equipment, super feed etc
This is way better than the preposterous construction tokens for example which only benefit GGS because the tokens put the players in a mind set to use gold to skip construction time
Medals and medal shop should be the system used in every event, a currency to use in a shop to buy items of your choice, including special buildings, in place of those rewards which are mostly worthless and always the same over and over.
The most valued rewards have been and are still being replaced with worthless ones. We receive crew and equipment for boats we don't own, countless copies of the same decorations over and over, plus a variety of items our farms produce at nearly no cost in no time.
BF resembles more and more slot machines, where you click click click, why ? No reason, but to click you have to buy the tokens to insert in the machine, welcome to the casino game people !
If it were more like the WWC coin truck, then, yes.
Yep, WWC coins just what I was thinking of
for the moment GGS has deleted some rewards that could be bought with WWC coins, next they will delete the WWC coins completely, just as they removed the medals
But no worries, you will still be rewarded with decos and speed feed for participating in events
@William Robert (US1) The last we heard, the changeover to HTML5 would be happening this month, so lets hope that transition goes smoothly.
My apologies if you felt insulted by my reply before, that was not my intention at all, it was meant to be tongue-in-cheek. - It looks like GGS made us both wrong in the end, going from 36 hours notice, to 12 hours, to a couple of days lol but at least anyone doing a challenge, did finally end up with time to complete it.
with a cc you can dip in and out of it doing missions as you wish, a hw by nature is one continuous grind, that's why they call it a hw lol
this is gonna be trainwreck fast track straight to hell that after the novelty of the first one, is gonna bomb big time, like the current hw events are
and that's my optimistic side speaking
however, I can't seem to find the will to stay positive for this event. Yes, at least one less CC a month, but none the less still a competitive co-op challenge no matter what you call it.
For some odd reason GGS does not understand the meaning and the purpose of a co-op and does not seem to understand Bigfarm should not be a full time job.
They now have 3 co-op events, they all run one after another with no real break in between. CHWE, CC, & now the VF.
The complaint from players was not lack of variety from constant co-op competitions, the complaint was that players no longer have time for their families, pets, housework, or jobs.
GGS says, "You don't have to play all the events". Sure, if you leave your co-op you can play or not play whatever you want. However, if you choose to be in a co-op, you are agreeing to participate in whatever the co-op wants to participate in.
GGS is destroying the co-ops. Many have already left their co-ops.
As you are just doing the challenge through normal farm activity, it can`t do any harm, just see what you have after the wagons disappear from the village & hopefully win the last of the medals
Fix the boat asking for the wrong items etc before introducing something new. The new event will have bugs and glitches and will only add to the ever increasing backlog of fixes, increasing players (and also probably GGS staff) frustrations.
Totally agree with one currency as a reward - one currency, one shop, and the players could then buy a deco. or speed feed, or tokens whatever they choose. Everyone plays the game slightly differently so would want different things.
But, all said, its my choice whether I play the game or not, and as I still play I guess it can't be too bad!
Will the stand alone Flash Player also not work anymore?
