Today's Update
Please be aware that we are expecting a longer (than usual) downtime for today's update.
The estimated downtime for the bigger servers could go up to a maximum of 45 minutes.
These will be distributed on Monday (April 1st), to include both the coins for the last week as well as the very last day.
The rankings will also be shared at that time.

IMPORTANT REMINDER
*********************************
We reported an issue in 2017 advising you not to make single donations to your coops that exceed $2,147,483,647 (including Research bonus), but to break it up into smaller amounts. - Due to the fact that several items in the game no longer have storage limits, such as fish, the same issue can occur when selling those items, so if you do any transactions in the game where the calculated total exceeds $2,147,483,647 you will need to break it up into smaller transactions otherwise any amount, over that number, will not get paid.
Note: If it is something like an upgrade that costs more than that amount or anything where the number is already stated in the game, then it is not an issue, it is only where a calculation is made, such as selling a lot of fish & the result is higher than $2,147,483,647

BEACH GARDEN NEWS
******************************
Hi everyone,
It would appear that the fix for the beach garden graphics (level 7-10) did work afterall (sort of) but has somehow been linked to the crop growing animations. So now when you sow seeds in your garden, you grow buildings too & when you harvest they disappear again lol - We have reported it.

CLEAN UP IN AISLE 4
**************************
The forum was getting a bit cluttered with derelict sections, so we had a bit of a clean up, if you are looking for any of the following, this is where you can now find them:
HTML Information (removed) - Contents moved to Tutorials & FAQ
Developer's Treehouse (removed) - Contents moved to Tutorials or Questions
Drawing Board (removed) - Contents moved to Official Discussions
The feedback in the Drawing Board is now with the other feedback threads, we are not really sure why it needed to be split in the first place, so we will just call that an unsuccessful test.
We currently do not have any devs with time to post on the forums, but if we get any more volunteers in the future, we will certainly make a space for them.

TICK-TOCK CONTEST NEWS
*********************************
Due to the awesome participation in the "Tick-Tock" Forum Contest, which currently stands at approx 1400 entries, it has become difficult for you to find valid original words, so we have added a 2nd Mystery Minute to each hour that the contest has been running & the closing date has been changed to today (July 31st) at 12PM CEST.
This means the number of available points has increased from 120 to 138

FARMERS LEAGUE & CC MONUMENT NEWS
*****************************************************
Hi everyone!
The CC did not link correctly to the Farmer's League, so the FL is going to be stopped & restarted again after the CC, to start with the next event. We do not know at this time, if the FL will be shortened due to one less event or if another event will be included at the end instead.
EDIT: We can now confirm that the re-run of the FL will last for 42 days
*****************************************************
It has come to our attention that removing coins from the CC monument costs gold, sorry that this was not included in the announcement, we did not know about it. - The cost is shown above the button, but it is NOT currently triggering the Gold-lock, so please be careful - This will be fixed in the next update.

If you could let your coop members know, that would be appreciated.
Thankyou

Greetings EN Community!EN COMMUNITY TEAM UPDATE
***************************************
CM_Arjuna has been transferred over to the Empire forums. - He has not left us completely, as he will still help out on BF when needed, during vacations, sickness, emergencies etc
Moderator CuddlyFoxes was hoping to return, but real life has taken over & so our beloved Cuddly one will not be back - At least not in the foreseeable future.
Moderator PicklePaws, did return for a while, but is also swamped with real life & so has also retired from Modding.
A BIG thankyou to all 3, for their dedication & hard work on behalf of the players in our awesome community & we wish them all well!
For the current members of the EN Community team see: HERE at the bottom of the Community Guidelines.

Hi Everyone,WHO ARE THEY?
**********************
Some of you have already noticed the sudden appearance of farmers called "Player000000000" (all with different numbers), no they are not hackers or anything else to be suspicious of or worried about, they are all real players, who have registered through the new Facebook registration. So far they are still relatively low levels, but have started to appear in various event brackets, coop applications etc.
The team are looking for a way to allow them to choose a username when they register, but for those already here, if you have one in your coop or they start to appear on the forums, you can let them know how to contact support, where they will be able to choose a proper name instead.
Thankyou!
