    Level 1 already provides 17. 21-17=4. Unfortunately it works like this with all the houses and GGS still did not find it very important to change the wording of it to make it all clearer.

    so basically I should upgrade simple houses ..it's cheaper and I'll get the same number of workers, 4, like the farmhouse.

    BTW thank you for your quick attention to my question :)

    Mmmmhh, well, the farmhouse also reduces the build/upgrade time for other buildings and that is definitely something to consider. I personally would upgrade the farmhouse. Not for the workers but for that build and upgrade time reduction :)

    I didn't think of that, but right now I need 2 workers.. simple house 350,000 ... farmhouse 1200,000. I will start saving for farmhouse upgrade but right now it's simple :) Once again, thank you so much .... Q

    The decos on the island will be lost. The decos that you buy for shells on your own farm will stay.
    Seriously?? Everything that I bought with GOLD will disappear?? So GGS thinks it's OK to STEAL from me and others??
    I purchased 2 gold houses and 2 (135 Happiness) Decos just to have it stolen from me in 20 something days??
    I am sure that the disappearance of everything was posted SOMEWHERE in forum.. But HONESTLY!! It should have been more clearly stated within the game! What is the purpose of even selling gold items?? They are MINE!! Either I keep them, or I WANT MY GOLD BACK!!
    You can keep your stupid Island! Not worth the hassle or unnecessary frustration.
    I mean Really!! O.o

    I'm chapter 1, start of task 2. I have build the dung and the leaves yard, but which first?

    I have some leaves, so maybe the leaves->humus yard, but I also have to build the peacock yard first and task three asks for hummus AND fertilizer already ... hm?

    Hey Cat Adams, I totally agree with you. I don't really mind (apart from spending a lot of time and farm dollars) that GGS will reset the Island, but I am annoyed that i only just found out that houses and decos purchased with gold will also disappear. That is basically throwing money away. And I do not think that was stated clear by GGS. If they did, someone please show me where, because I must have missed it.
    It would be nice if GGS gives you the opportunity to store these items for the next Island event.

    Everywhere was stated that the entire island would disappear. What more should they say about that. Everything is everything, even gold purchased stuff. It was mentioned in the official announcements as well as the event chapter deco overview. "Time is of essence, as the island farm will only be available for 30 days. After that, everything you've built will be reset. So best not to waste any time!" That is what it literally says on the event deco overview that you can reach by clicking the main chapter task and then the bottom line that mentions the chapter number and title. It was shown to you the first time you landed on the island farm, as a pop up :)

    Thanks for replying Larino, I do know the Island will disappear (i.a.w. hidden for players till the next event). But still to me it wasn't clear that items purchased with gold will be gone too. I checked with the top players in my coop (one spent an enormous amount of real money) and they missed that also.
    I still hope that GGS will decide that when the Island event comes back you can pick up where you left and don't have to start all over with tasks and that you can enjoy your previous efforts and investments.

    Chapter 2, task 2, should be "produce" slush.. I made a slush and was waiting to collect it for this task, but it did not count. They are looking for you to produce them, not collect them, and we need every precious mango to make sure we get through these tasks!!

    Right now only on decorations. Later on you can spend them on tropical seeds as well, but we first need the greenhouse to be implemented. To buy decos click on the green seashell trader truck on your main farm.

    Many many people explained this here on every page, but just go to your main farm, click on the lighthouse and click on the green question mark.

    Prince Manish3:

    Great information. Thanks.

    It would help if as we went along those shells could be turned into island dollars so we wouldn't go broke so quickly. If the Island Farm were more self sustaining it wouldn't be so painful to transfer $345,000.00 at a time. I had more than $5,000,000.00 (5M) in my main farm account when the Island Farm became available and until I just sold some stuff I had less that $2,000,000.00 (2M).

    I'm not being mean. I'm trying to help. That's some big money that takes a while to accumulate and it's frightening to watch it disappear so fast.

    What happens with shells that are not spent at the end of the event ?
