Halloween Crafts Quest and Green Marker Collection


Above, Wizard Owl ftom this Quest.  Below, Fantasy Fox, Animated Decoration from Photo Studio:

Party Capybara from Photo Studio eats Pineapple and produces Capybara Fur.

Note from Freyashawk:

First, thanks to every sibgle farner who reaches out to tell me my work is appreciated and even more gratitude to those who continue to vote for HM. Freyashawk.


The game is increasingly difficult for me as it crashes constantly now, despite clearing my cache.  I do not mind expending the time and energy needed to write guides for Seaside, but I do find it upsetting when the systems used to float it are overloaded.  We deserve better.  They should not release new options if the platform does not support them.  The recent situation with the Pillow Collection is a case in point.  That was released at the same time as a host of 13th Anniversary Activities.    Could they not have staggered the release of all these Activities?

N.B.  I had forgotten that the timer for those Collection Missions only begins when the item is placed.  Not that it would have mattered in my case as I was unaware of the issue when I placed it on the day it was released, but I could have cautioned other farmers not to place it on their farms until the situation was corrected.

Another point that upsets me is our inability to obtain the Kitty Mermaid Decoration with Fragments, RC or cash.  The only way to obtain it is with the Lucky Draw and the Lucky Draw is likely to give you fragments at the stage where  every draw results in duplicates and those cannot be used for this Reward.  It is a very expensive Activity if you want all the Decorations and other unique rewards.   The fact that 5 RC only buys one Badge is shocking as well.

Well, there is my rant for the month except for the fact that my rank in the Contest was 16.  I could have ranked higher if votes sent to Rosewood and Asgard had been sent to HM. Freyashawk.  Whether I mught have bern in the top 10 is anothetlr matter.  While ai appreciate the kindness of those who send votes to Asgard or Rosewood, they kind of are wasted as neither ever will be in the top 100,  while if sent to HM. Freyashawk, there is a chance they would affect my rank.  If you are a neighbour of either of those but not of HM. Freyashawk, please request that Freyashawk becomes your neighbour.

Floristry Masterclass Quest and Floral Knife Collection

Well, the first thing that happened was a splashscreen forcing a new log in that froze!  I had to leave the game completely.  It now is on the Activity Stage and simply tapping on the stage freezes my screen.  

I confess I am discouraged by the many different activities and interactions now required. 
I always felt that Votes for HM. Freyashawk represented the degree of usefulness perceived by farmers for this site.   At the current rate, I will not be in the top 10.

There are a few farmers who always thank me for posting these quests.  It is for their sake now that I grind on...

I also wish to take a moment to remember all my Seaside friends who have died or simply left the game.  They never will be forgotten, far more than virtual reality 'friends'.

And please do think about this.  For all the postings about these quests, mine are permanent.  When this quest exlires and goes to the Lighthouse, you can still find THIS post and access the information you need.  I believe I have documented every timed quest on this site since the dawn of Seaside. Every one can access this site freely.  You do not need to belong to my Facebook Seaside Group, my Community or be my social media Friend.  I do not limit access ever.

Darryl's Adventure 900 +

This is a post that will take time to complete now.  It deals with an old section of Darryl's Adventure.

This is unpaid work, but I do what I can.

I have published posts for Darryl's Adventure to the end. There is a gap, however at 900.  For some reason, I now am getting requests for the only tasks in Darryl's Adventute I did not publish.  It was either during my treatment for cancer or befire my eye procedures when I was almost blind.
I am  a little disillusioned with Seaside. They just produced an update with timed tasks but half the farmers who play on Kindle still do not have the update.  The game is too large now and so stressful..  I crash every time I access my Cloud Farm!

I still love my farm and my neighbours but the developers need to slow down.

I know I did these at least to 1000 at one time but where is the post now?

I have to tap on each numbered task I did to see it now.   I have to spend at least five mi utes acrolling bqckwards to see these early tasks on the map.   Doing this post will take hours.
