Someone has to keep accepting new members and try to educate them instead of booting them. Every player in the game had no idea what was going on at some point. A new player who is not even at a high enough level to be sparkled should not have the ability to start a challenge over a half hour. We would all be better off with a change. You never know what new player would have gotten hooked on this game but gave up in frustration because they were booted and didn't understand why.
The fair comes up on their screen and they click a couple of times and voila, they think they are doing something acceptable, maybe helpful, because they are able to do it. Then they get booted and have no idea they just upset their entire coop and maybe ruined the entire fair for their coop. Many of these players don't even know where the mailbox or chat box is, or are scared to click on them not knowing what will happen. The game needs a constant influx of new players, a few of whom will keep playing as long as the game is not rigged against them. New players shold not be the BAD GUYS!
This is the only event where new players can influence and doom an entire coop. It needs changed!
If a deterrent was added maybe players would not just click for the sake of it.
This subject comes up every village fair and it would be good if we can find a solution!
We have not had any new members apply this time as the last time it happened we kept track of the farms we booted and let the leaders of their new co op what had happened. this may seem excessive but seems to have worked.
I will say this again, we need new players coming into the game. I enjoy helping new players learn the game. They shouldn't have the power to be the bad guys. Some do not read their mail or chat. If all the coops stop accepting new players because of the fair then what kind of future will the game have?
Please limit regular members to half hour challenges! Please default the selection menu to page 1 bronze!
when did the VF change from at least a week(6.75 days) to 1 the same length as the HW or CHW or the CC ??
The 2 different length FHW's is bad enough - yes you read right - a 3 day & a 4 day - so now maybe a 50 % of having a chance at a GML !!
But to hack the VF event in half or less & not change or add a way to stop the newer/lower level player's from starting any challenge over 30 minutes!
We lost almost 2 full days because of such a thing. Normally we would be able to make up some ground with the rest of the time we had left. But now with the possibilities of a player being able to start along challenge could tie up the whole event with no chance for a co op to event try to get a couple in.
Unless there is at least 24 hour notice - just like for the CC - more & more co ops will just stop taking in player's for the event's or not do them/it at all.
I babysat the fair all day yesterday and really thought all of our players finally understood. I decided I had better check in again to babysit some more and found that a 13 hour challenge had just been started. We were in third, we will drop fast. I am also going to drop fast in the farmers league.
Why does this event have to be so frustrating? Why can't our simple solutions get implemented? Default the selection menu to page 1 and only allow officers to start challenges longer than a half hour. Pull some people off Big Farm Story and fix this, PLEASE, and the scoreboard still doesn't work properly.
We are told that it's in leagues and teams in different leagues default to different pages.
Could you please tell them that THIS IS A DISASTER !!!
NOBODY will complain if we all default to page 1
Please, PLEASE, PLEASE get them to listen
Sure, we can boot that player or refuse to accept new players, but this is just an unreasonable solution to this problem. We should be taking in new players and teaching them the game. GGS should want coops to take in new players, teach them how fun this game can be and create long time customers for them, not kick them out for something they do not even understand.
Many solutions have been suggested such as allowing only leaders/deputies to start challenges or allowing only leaders/deputies to start challenges over 30 min. Is that too difficult? Then how about the very simple solution that has been suggested over and over...change the default page. If this is new player error, then changing the default page to page 1 would mean they would accidentally start a 30 min challenge. Seems like a simple solution that would make many coops very happy. And it seems like a solution that is long overdue.
If you are having a problem with one of your deputies then you can easily demote that person.
I feel that a 2 hour challenge is the more than enough time to contribute what you need to, and allows for new players coming online & others going off, etc.
