Underwater Wonders Quest and Coral Polyps Collection Mission



A new 11 day traditional Quest sequence has been released in tandem with a Collection Mission that gives a beautiful Coral Tree as its reward.  

Collection Mission
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

70 from Oat
50 from Egg
30 from Sunflower Bouquet
10 from Mirabelle Plum

Reward: Coral Tree

Strategy Tips:
xxxxxxxxxxxx

As a low level player, try to complete the Collection Mission as the Reward is a Premium Tree.  You always can access the traditional Quest from the Lighthouse after the timer of 11 days expire, but the Collection Mission no longer will be available.  Instead, the Tree will be offered for RC in the Market after expiration of the Mission.

There is only one 'special task' in this Quest, which is to fish with the Treble Hook, so do not cast a Net if you wish to complete the quest as quickly as possible without using exorbitant amounts of OP to pull up a net prematurely.  You can tend your Botanic Garden and allow your Pets to dig and collect all Chests as there is no task connected to these activities.

Note from Freyashawk: 
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I am extremely grateful for all of the support from good friends and neighbours who have shown kindness and who have taken the time and energy to vote for HM. Freyashawk in the Farm Beauty Contest.  Regrettably, the farm has NOT placed in the top 10 the last couple of contests.  I would ask you now please NOT to vote for Rosewood Sanctum or Asgard instead of HM. Freyashawk, as the votes given (in kindness) to those two farms could have placed HM. Freyashawk in the top 10.  If you are not a neighbour of HM. Freyashawk, please request Farm I.D. from Rosewood Sanctum or Asgard if you are a neighbour of one of those two farms. 

Secondly, there are a thousand Facebook groups for this game now, but please do not simply rip off the information from my site if you have one of these groups.  I share information freely, but all you have to do to be fair is to publish a link to my post in your group.  Thank you.

Community Achievements
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

New Community Achievements have been added.  Remember that these are completely different from the Challenges, as Achievements have no timer.  You only will be able to see the current Achievement that is underway as well as the next one when you access the Achievement Menu in your Community.  All the original Achievements are listed in an earlier post I published when Watertown was established last year.  Unless you are a new or low level Community, there is NO POINT in exerting yourself for these Achievements in my view.  Do it when you have nothing else to do....  There are no new items or levels in the Exotic Shop as far as I can see and nothing new in the Town Office.

The new Achievements we have in the Menu follow the Achievement of Crafting 2400 Wooden Planks and are:

Prepare 1500 glasses of Kvass
  Reward: 750 Gems

Fish 1600 times with Bone Fishhook
  Reward: Not shown
