Polo Match Quest and Polo Helmet Mission

(Detail of my farm showing the koinobori Crop:  I tried to increase my Landscape Points after the change in the rules for rank in the Beauty Contest, but I will not sacrifive my farm to this.  My farm is very personal kandscape where you can find little alcoves and corners that represent every them that has been used in Seaside.  You can see the Crops that were in the market briefly years ago as well as Decorations that have not been made available again.  I always thought of it as my Sanctuary from a wirld that has brought me a lot os difficukt chalkenges, including pbysical disability and cancer.  So I well understand the farmers who play this game because it is one thing they still can do after suffering a change in their real lives that limits them now.  I continue to update this site to try to eliminate some of the stress and make certain the game is fun rather than frustrsting when new options are released.)

Note from Freyashawk:

As always, I hope that farmers who find this site useful will vote for my farm.  Moreover, almost all the information about permanent Quests since the game was released is on this site.  I make no money from this, but it upsets me when farners do not know that the information they need probably has been published here.  So please let your farm neighbours know that Lighthouse Quests are here.  When the original quest was modified, I did not publish new posts but a lot of the details are the same.  There is a Search option on the site.

All the Uncle Carlos Quests are here.  Most of the information about the Cloud Farm is here.  I have yet to publish a post with the most recent updates, but I have experienced yet another loss in my life in the past week alone and it is a struggle to deal with the loss of those we love; no matter whether human or beloved animal companion.

Jasper died on the 5th of May.  That is the day celebrated in Japsn as Childrens' Day (formerly Boys' Day).  One of the aspects of this is the flying of carp banners known as koinobori.  The carp represents strength and determination.  A koinobori plant crop was released temporarily in Seaside many years ago.  It is one of my favourite crops so I never harvest the ones that remain on my farm.  From time to time, I beg Support to consider releasing it as a permanent Crop.  We all need strength and determination to swim upstream against the tide sometimes.  The original Quest is in the Lighthouse but the rewards probably have changed.  In those days, tbough, the developers created stories to accompany the tasks and I included real details about these events in my posts as well as those stories.  The game has changed a great deal dince then, but I continue to advocate the return of this powerfully symbolic Crop that, in the form of windsocks and banners is seen throughout Japan on the 5th of May.

I want to dedicate this post to Jasper, who was the best and most faithful of companions.  He was born almost two decades ago in my lap and died by my side, brave, loving and uncomplaining to the very end. 

(I had to pay 5 RC because my Pets had dug all the paths during the night and I needed to publish this now and not tomorrow.)
