Starry Sky, Pisces

This is one of the oldest activities and it is charming, not too labour-intensive, and offers a good reward.  It will expire in 8 and a half days now.

The final Reward is a Pisces Statue that is worth 4 Landscape Points and gives a Purple Gift Box when cleaned.
You are taken to a Constellation Map, and a magical wand is given each day to activate a star.  Once activated, the three tasks must be completed within two hours.  If you wish to activate more stars, you must pay 2 RC for each additional magical wand, but you will have a new 'free' wand at reset.

Stars can be activated in any order.  Numbering is arbitrary.

Incidentally, you can use 'Out of Nowhere' instead of Batch Production if you do not have ingredients.

Note from Freyashawk:  Thanks to each and every farmer who sent votes to HM. Freyashawk.  At last reset, my farm was No. 11.  My farm dropped only by one slot in the last voting period. Although it was not in the top 10, the goal no longer appeared impossible.  I am very touched by the loyalry of so many farmers when I have been I unable to post as much as I once did.  Thank you.

Love and Care Quest and Heart-Shaped Card Collection Mission

A new 11 day traditional  Quest sequence has been released in tandem with a Collection Mission.  It purports to be a romantic St. Valentine's Day theme, but some of the items have me at a loss.  A Meat Grinder is the Reward for collecting Heart-Shaped Cards.  We are asked to fashion Tractor Tires in our kitchen as one of our tasks.  The final Decoration is a Heart-Shaped Balloons Decoration, however.

A new Farm Beauty Contest has been generated hot on the heels of the last one.  High level farms should be able to organise themzelves to reach 6000 votes without askibg for neighbour votes.  If you are at a high level, you should hqve RC.  Use that RC to complete the new Base.  When placed, it is worth 9 votes per day for theme.  There are theme deciratiobs in the Lucky Wheel/Share Box as well that can be purchased for RC.  Those who refuse to spend 'real money' thus can use game currency to boost their farm value.  You need less than 200 votes per day to gain the Decoration at 4000.  You need less than 300 for the Avatar at 6000.  And it is not a 'daily' requirement actually.  It is just convenient to measure it that way.

HM. Freyashawk only needs your votes to rank.  I think it is outrageous that it appears to be impossible now to rank in the top 10 with ordinary gameplay by having your neighbours send their votes to you.  Winners are manipulating the system or actually cheating.  I do not ask for votes for any farm except HM. Freyashawk.  For me, it shows whether or not updating thiz sure still is useful.  I do not get paid.  I get nothing feom Google.  I am a target for hackers in fact.  Health issues and the ever expanding size of this game make it difficult to cover everything at this point in time.  My last procedure was not without effects that have to be addressed.  I do what I can, abd try to post the timed quests at least.  Thank you for your prayers and good wishes.

N.B. You noe can opt out of the Collection Mission by purchasing the reward.
