    My name is a combination of my first name spell backwards and the first letter of my last name.  I got the idea from a wonderful young woman (I won't say who), and was i put it together it sounded cool, so i went with it.

    I am Ms. GardenR. 

    I married a RanchR, a BuildR, a FishRman, a LabRtory Scientist, a BakeR, PerfumR, BeekeepR and a ManufacturR...and then kept all their businesses that I won in the divorces!

    And that's how I became a Big FarmR!
    On my farm, I am also the queen of DecoR and have a green thumb for growing FlowRs.

    So will you please give me this gold prize so that my next husband doesn't have to be a MineR?  :p
    ...I  kinda prefR to stick with Yarnie (Yarnacle) anyway, and we might hop on the Jetty one day and run away togethR. <3

                                        *** THE PINK IN THE COMBS IS DONKEYS BLOOD!!!! ***  

                      Otherwise, how are you creating a pink comb using only Poplar Wood, Nails and Donkey???

    We mustR at dawn to march against farms and make our voices heard, in hopes that these factoRies could simply use extra ROSES and VIOLETS to create those combs – instead of being GrindeRs of donkey flesh just to extRact their blood for the pink coloring!

    In the early 80's I married a farmer and we bought a fairly large farm with a lot of beef and sheep, I was always knee deep in it or driving a tractor! The farm and everything on it was in his name and although I worked every hour God sent he wouldn't even give me a ewe! He did allow me to go to the Farmers co-op and book the next size up in waterproofs when I was expecting!  I divorced him! Now I have my own farm Farmer J (Jan)

    Many years ago(not 'many' years ago some people will think im very old) I got in my sister's computer (when she wasn't around,if she saw me I'm sure she's gonna kill me) and searched for some cool games.. I saw big farm and then clicked it and I saw its amazing graphics and fall in love with the game.. I don't play games very often, I usually sit with my sister and saw her play.. It made me curious ..I saw the username tag and used a name that was always my favourite 'barbie'.. So I added barbie, but they didn't accept it, y?? Then 'barbie2', etc... Then added 'Blair' they won't accept it either.. I cursed all those people who took my name... Then I decided to add a different name, 'Barbiecharm' (which is from my favorite movie Barbie Princess Charm School)haha this ones very different so that noone will use it as their username.. Im so creative yay... So that's my story behind big farm player name

    And I will appreciate if someone will appreciate my story and my creativity :grin: *grins*....

    Kori means my language 'basket'. I used this same name first time on another website, forum when I was teenager. It was 14 years ago and I was thinking username. I had boring and I decide register there and I see on the floor waste basket XD And that I take name kori (i.e basket). So that is my so creative story behind my nick name :smiley:
  • istasakhi (INT1)istasakhi (INT1) INT1 Posts: 15
               In 2013, while playing online games in y8.com, my son showed me the big farm game.At starting, i'm unable to play game as i wasn't that much fluent in English. During my first game ,without knowing the game, I used to feed the chick coop with gold. With that, all the dollars and gold are used up. The farm wasn't developed a bit after that. That's why by creating 4 more id's, i learnt how to play the game. In the beginning I used to collect the things until the mission starts but not at the time of mission, because I wasn't able to understand the English and unaware of game.

            From that day, I like the game very much.  That's why with a new Id " Ista sakhi", I created a farm.Ista sakhi means Dear Friend. Since then Big Farm became my Dear Friend. Now I can play very well and I'm feeling really happy when someone is asking suggestions from me.

           While playing , It looks like  every living and non- living thing on my desktop screen is watching me  raising their chin. 

              I will always say to my son, at my old age, if he'll show this farm to me, may be  i can live for some more  long days. :) .  I like this big farm , this name that much. :D

    My player name in Qronq. 

    A group of friends were chatting one night about how the letter Q is almost always followed by the letter U. Wouldn't it be neat to have more words with a stand alone Q. Even better a silent Q.

    I added a Q to either end of my name. My main farm is "The Q is Silent". My gourmet farm is "And the other Q". The flower farm is "No Q here".

    My player Name is Bass, very special to me because my First Grand childs name is Sebastian. when our daughter was expecting we were trying to figure out a nickname and my husband came up with Bass i said no way that is a fish. Sebastian is now 4 years old and my husband stills calls him that from time to time. this little boy has us wrapped around his little fingers, everyday when i log on i think of him and he loves to sit on my lap when i play. i have to save my contracts for when he is around because he loves it when the truck goes LOL

    The contest (that-is-not-a-contest) is now closed. 
    However, I will re-open the thread again soon so that people can continue sharing their stories with us, should they want to.

    This has been a very interesting experience, with some lovely stories, both heart-warming and funny.
    Quite a few questions I had before have now been answered !

    Thank you to everyone that came to share their story with us  <3

    In the spirit of the festive season (and also because it is really hard to choose), we have decided to take the available kitty of gold and divide it equally between all the participants.

    Therefore the following players will each receive 500 gold in their player account as a token of our appreciation and a small gift for the holidays :smiley:

    About 5 years ago we were having an April blizzard in Minnesota.  I searched for a game to play online and found BigFarm.  It asked for a user name.  I looked out the window and saw all the snow and thought about how i wished the snow were April flowers instead.  so the reality of snow and the dream of flowers became my user name snow flower.

    We would still love to hear more stories of people's usernames - please do come tell your story here if you want.

    If I am not mistaken then all who entered a few words about their nick have received the gift. It warmed my heart to see :smile: A beautiful gesture. Far better then the gold itself.

    Thank you :smile:

    90 % of the names either have the word 'farmer' or 'mom' in them....

    another 5% are the real names of players...

    I fail to see the purpose of this.

    I don't know, I enjoyed reading about everyone's names.  I would love to see one of these for what's in a name for each of the Co-ops?   How did they come about the names for them?  It would be interesting to know that.  Suzy!
