9th Anniversary Activity Stage

This is a cooperative effort.  All ant farmer needs to do is collect 20 Anniversary Crop Seeds per day, grow and then harvest them.  After harvesting, the farmer needs to donate them to help Darryl and Felicia make an Anniversary Cake.  The total required is 65000000 seeds.  We have reached the second of three Reward goals with four more days to go.  There is absolutely no reason to badger players to keep mature Anniversary Crops on their farms instead of donating them.  A visiting neighbour may or may not be able to Harvest one Crop from a neighbour's farm.

Some one devised the idea of players adding a 9 to their farm names to show they were keeping mature Anniversary Crops on their farms.  This should be optional.  The game rules simply ask you to plant, harvest and donate your 20 Crops each day.

What is disturbing to me is the judgemental nature towards farmers who are not following this unofficial protocol.  Complaints against high level players especially.   If one thinks about it for a moment, the high level player has worked very hard for many years to reach maximum level.  Often, he or she lacks the time, energy or enthusiasm now to let every single task in a game that becomes increasingly complex and demanding.  If the player is planting and donating Crops, that should be sufficient.

When you visit a neighbour, it always Is positive to find Crops on the Farm but sometimes players harvest in haste with the cropinator and are forced to leave the game without replanting.  Even without across, you can clean gift boxes.  There always are rewards when you visit a neighbour.

Please be kind and understanding of your neighbours.  Many are disabled, elderly, or caring for a loved one who demands constant attendance.  Seaside is a game, nor a religion or a job.  Tey not to make your neighbours feel they are disappointing or failing you if they cannot do as much as you do.  Seaside may consist of virtual farms but they are created and maintained by ml people.

As for the 9th Anniversary Activity, I would have thought players would have bern happy that every one will obtain all the rewards.  We can all win here.

Vote for Me Quest and Microphone Collection Mission

A new 11 day traditional 16 part quest sequence has been released in tandem with a Collection Mission.

I always urge farmers to try to complete the Collection Mission even if they cannot complete the quest sequence, as the quest can be completed usually from the Lighthouse once the 11 day time limit expires.  Recently, the developers have bern using new premium Animsls and Machines in these Collection Missions.  If you are serious about the game, you need to purchase these RC items.  Failing to do so simply places you at an increasing disadvantage ultimately.  For this Mission, you need the Gummy Bear Machine.  Remember always that you can exchange green mystrons each day for 1 RC.  The price set is random, buy if you are d a diligent player, you should be able to collect RC this way on a daily basis.

Special Tasks:
Fish 8 times with Squid Hook
Dig 15 Chests
Tend Botanical.Garden 12 times 
Laab Stovehouse Recipe

Please be aware that any farmer with a fully upgraded Botanical Garden should NOT need Friendship Flowers.  There are plots for 12 flowers on your own side of the Garden.  As far as registration of any new Friendship Flower is concerned, you now can register your own Friendship Flower, so there no longer is a need to ask a neighbour to give or lend you one for registration

Farm Beauty Contest Tips

Every Farm Beauty Contest, I see farmers begging for votes, usually because they are not obtaining sufficient votes from the four characters.  They  may offer to 'exchange' with some one, or simply say they are not making the goal, without being specific.

There are two easy ways to make certain your Farm achieves the total of 4000 or 6000 votes by the end of any contest.

1.  Make certain you have invested in enough theme items to reach a total of 200 votes daily from your own characters, and 300 daily for the maximum rewards at 6000.

In all honesty, the Decoration Reward given at 4000 votes is more important than the rewards given at 6000.

The very best way to take the stress out of the contest is by judicious purchase of one or more premium items with cash, especially those that are worth 9 votes daily for theme.  These premium items are featured again and again in the Beauty Contests.  Completing the new base quickly by using RC will increase theme by 9 votes daily as well.

I know there are players who make a point of not investing real money in these 'free' games.  The problem here is that some one has to pay, or the game will fail ultimately.  People will buy a book, a subscription to a service like Netflix, go to a restaurant, buy a cup of coffee somewhere, and yet draw a line when it comes to gamed.  Yet you are investing a great deal of labour and time in this virtual world, and without financial backing from some one, it will collapse.  The amount of money required now to purchase all the premium items each month is ridiculous, but a small regular investment is very different.  

The Lucky Wheel always includes theme items.  You can use RC to purchase these.

The other category where players fall short is the Pet category.  Four pets fully attired and equipped are required on the Farm for maximum votes.  Spend once and they will be good for every contest.

Another way to make your Farm self-sufficient is by having a second farm.  It is not cheating if you work a second farm to create votes for your primary farm.

You can persuade a family member on Facebook to create a farm, or you can create a new Farm through Gane Centre on any Apple device.  You still may be able to register a separate Farm through Google as well.  You need to be at Level 40 to give 4 votes, 50 for 5 and 60 for 6.  Having a second farm can help you with materials your first farm may require as well.

There are two separate contests here.  One is for the declaration and avatar.  The other is for rank.  HM. Freyashawk only asks for votes for rank, and only to show continued support for this site.  If this site has become obsolete, I will pack it in.  I created it over eight years ago as a free service for players, with access for every one.  It did not require Facebook or Google membership or registration.  I wanted to share information with every one if I could.  I never wanted to see it as a popularity contest.  I am not very competitive that way.

Any farmer should be able to complete the requirements for the ordinary contest without neighbour votes, but the only way to achieve rank is from neighbour votes.

The other requirements for character votes are simple.  A variety of Crops, Animals, Machines, Trees, and a decent total of Landscape Points from the use of paths with decorations.

Comic Lover Quest and Hero Badges Collection Mission


11 day Quest in tandem with Collection Mission.

Special Tasks and Tips:

You need to fish 8 times with the Dolphin Hook
You need to tend flowers 12 times.  That means your own side of the Garden should be full.  No need to ask neighbours for friendship flowers
You need the Norwegian Wheat Porridge Stovehouse Recipe
You need the Sand Scupting Machine for the Collection Mission

One other strategy tip: When the Collection Mission involves a coin tree like the Almond Tree, the drop rate of the special quest item is far lower than it would be from a premium tree.  I usually find a coin tree (non premium tree) needs at least 30 harvests to collect the items.  Instead of using watering cans, buy multiple Almond Trees.  You can sell them after you achieve the required total.

Note from Freyashawk: A new Farm Beauty Contest has started.  Before the last reset, my farm, HM. Freyashawk ranked No. 7, thanks to your real votes.  By the end of the contest, in one voting period, my rank had dropped to 14.  How is it possible for farmers to gain that many votes in a single voting period?  It is not possible using legitimate methods.  I would ask that farmers challenge the numbers gained by the top winners again.  The ranking part of the contest is corrupt.  That is depressing when farmers take their time and energy to vote for some one who actually should have reached the top 10.  I am not the only farmer cheated by hackers every single contest.
They need to eliminate the rank half of the contest or make it honest.

Note that increased theme decorations helps farmers gain a better total from the characters.

Please note that I still make errors when texting with numbers.  Any harvest from a tree or any dish prepared in the kitchen should be a total of 8.  Any crop harvest task will be 40 to 60.  I am sorry, but it is difficult to use this app.  I try to publish quickly.  I do not always have time to proof instantly.  I notice one problem with the app is that I cannot view the entire post.  It makes it more difficult to catch typos.  I see only a few lines of the text at a time.

'80s Party Quest and Cassette Collection Mission

Vision still a little compromised.  I had the eye procedures,, but I apologise for two typographical errors, as my ability to read comes and goes a bit still. 

Note from Freyashawk:  Thanks to all the farmers who are sending their votes.  I may actually have a chance this time round if people continue to send their votes.  I have been very much in contact with Support about making certain they eliminate cheaters and hackers and give the rewards to the valid winners.  I hope the winners received their trophies at least!

Tips:  The reward for the Collection Mission will become a premium item once the time limit us reached.  You can access the Quest from the Lighthouse usually, but not the Collection Mission.  Try therefore to complete the Collection Mission at least.  It does require a premium Animal in the form of the Guinea Pig, buy thus is where you always should be using your RC.  The premium Animals and Machines you can buy in the Market tend to be required again and again nowadays.

Finally, may I make a little plea for compassion towards other farmers in this game?  The developers have created a ridiculous expectation that neighbours will make 300 to 310 visits per day.  If you stop to think about it, as long as your neighbour always has crops on the Farm and decorations to clean, YOU benefit by visiting that farmer.  Why demand reciprocation?  I have noticed that the most enthusiastic super farmers sometimes quickly grow weary of the game and quit whike the more casual farmer continues to play.  I am not quick to delete either.  A Level 6 inactive Buddy provides me with good rewards still and perhaps will return one day.  We are human beings, and we really ought to find good company and some fun in this game rather than more stress in a world that has an overabundance of that recently.

Insect Garden, Seaside Pass and Farm Beauty Contest

Some new options in the game appear to be confusing for some players.

Insect Garden

We are finding our way here still, but the insect garden is next to the Botanicak Garden and linked to it.  To some extent, the flowers growing in your Botanical Garden determine the insects that will be attracted to your Insect Garden.

There is a timer for these as well.  Certain rare insects only will appear on set days.  I do not think these days are the same for every one, although I need more time to confirm this.  I believe the week is a matter of consecutive days.  The rarest insect of all, the Dreamy Papilio, only appears on Day 7. Its favourite flower is the Mega Rose.

Now there are two different markets connected to the Botanical Garxen as well.  One sells Garden tools and ordinary Level 1 flowers as previously, but a welcome change is that you can buy ALL Garden tools at one time.   The limit of 99 has been eliminated as well. Appearance no longer is random.   If needed, you can buy all of them every day.

The other Market accepts Insect Coins, earned by catching insects with a net.  There are two different nets by the way.  One is crafted in the island Hardware Store using 1 Wooden Cylinder and 1 Cotton Cloth.  The other can be purchased for 1 RC.

The different insects have different values in Insect Coins.  You can use these coins to purchase Level 1 Friendship Flowers or two new Levell 1 Flowers in the form of the Helios Flame Sunflower and the Coryphantha Cactus Flower.  Each costs 400 Insect Coins.

In theory, you can catch one insect in a buddy's garden each day.  Whether or not a buddy's insect garden is open for you to catch an insect may be determined by that buddy's actions.  I have tested this now more than once.  When I visit a buddy OK did not catch all insects in his/her garden that day, I am able to catch one.  If that Buddy has caught the quota, the garden is shut.   You may consider leaving a couple of rare insects in your garden for your Buddies once you have the rewards you need.

To discover what day it is in your Insect calendar, look at the insects currently in your garden.  For example, the Chafer appears only on the even numbered days.  The Blue Morpho on  1, 2, 6 and 7.  The Leaf Moth on Days 1, 3 and 5.  Sk by seeing which ones are present, you often can work out where you are in terms of Day 7 when the elusive Dreamy Papilio appears.

Seaside Pass

The Seaside Pass is similar in some ways to the Daily Quests and sometimes performance of a task is rewarded by both.

There are two rows for the Seaside Pass.  If you opt to purchase the premium Decoration for Seaside (currently a Flamingo), you will unlock the second row of tasks and rewards as well as adding points.

Without the premium decoration, you still can earn both daily rewards and seasonal rewards, but you are limited to those on the first row.

Note that one daily task is to claim votes in the Farm Beauty Contest. Another is to dig 10 Chests.  Claim Daily Quest Silver Box. Claim Dedicated Farmer Bonus once.  Complete 3 Orders on the Order Board.  Some of these overlap with Daily Quest tasks.

There are other rewards apart from farm Aids.  On the free row, there is a Summer Flamingo Avatar. On the premium row, there is a Summer Flowers Avatar Frame.  Note that the premium Decoration gives 100 bonus points that can be counted towards rewards.  You can opt to  
exchange TC for Points to earn rewards faster,  but I believe the Seaside Pass premium row is unlocked only.by purchasing the decoration. 

Farm Beauty Contest

There are farmers who still do not understand how this works, even at high levels.  

Really, the most important reward is given when you reach a total of 4000 votes.  There is no reason why even lower level farmers should not be able to achieve this using o ly the votes given by the four characters who assess your Farm every day. 

The important requirements are having a variety of Crops, Trees, Animals, Machines, a few but not that many farm Expansions, four pets fully outfitted and on the Farm (not in the Pet House), a decent total of Landscape Points, and as decent number of Theme decorations.  Theme items are shown in a little red book in the Farm Beauty Contest Menu.

By completing and placing the new base in any Farm Beauty Contest, you usually will increase votes for theme by 9 votes per day. Premium decorations often give 6 or 9 more votes per day as opposed to the 3 votes given to non premium decorations.

There are players who believe there is no point in registering if they cannot reach maximum votes.  That is absurd. There are Farm aids as well as Coins that are given at lesser totals, and this is where you earn purple mystrons. The decoration given at 4000 votes is cleanable.  Furthermore, by voting each day, you earn a gift box that contains rewards.such as OP, purple Mystrons and coins. 

I do not know if requirements have changed at all, but lower levels farmers confirm you do not need even the 30 x 30 expansion to receive maximum votes for 'big farms'.  Do register as many items in your Gallery as possible to receive 18/18 for Gallery.  A farmer with only 2284 Landscape Points confirmed she receives maximum votes of 24/24 for 'beautiful paths with high Landscape Points'. 

I have written many posts in the past about the Farm Beauty Contest and how to maximise your own character votes.  The totals may have changed, but with 16 different Crops, 16 different Trees, 12 different Animals and 12 different Machines on your Farm, you should receive maximum for those categories.
Beehives and  Butterfly Houses count as Animals.

There actually are two different Beauty Contests.  One is for the votes that give the Decoration at 4000 and an avatar and a couple of RC at 6000, but the other is for rank.  Only the top 100 farmers in the world are ranked.  With 2000 votes above 6000, you will not be in the top 100.  To rank in the top 10, you need between 12,000 and 13,000 votes.

I know I have requested that farmers who use this site vote for HM. Freyashawk.  This is for rank, for trying to be in the top 10 to give visibility to this site.  I never ask for votes for any other farm.  

In this current Contest, they gave increased the theme total.  Thus actually helps the farmer, because the total of votes needed to attain the rewards has not changed.   All it means is that they are counting more thene items on your Farm.

You do not need more than 200 votes per day to attain 4000.  You do not need more than 300 to attain the final rewards at 6000.  In fact, it is possible than the actual total is less for both as there is one extra voting period. 

Remember always that the screenshot you submit determines your Farm's value in votes.  If you forget to place your new completed base or take all four pets out of the Pet House,  submit a new photo.   Otherwise do not meddle with it.  Often it will disappear if there is a new update.  Do not worry.  It still counts.  Do not take a new one!

Note that theme decorations are included in the Lucky Wheel for each contest.Contest.  There are four that can be found for the us Contest. Some theme items can be purchased in the Market.  That means you can use RC instead of cash to buy them.  As far as new premium items are concerned, they usually are worth more votes than other theme items and will be used in future contests.  They tend to give better gift boxes when cleaned as well.  

Finally, I hate to have to make this clear, but I never made a penny from this game and never shall.  I make no money from Google,  have never asked for gift cards or friendship flowers even.  If any one claims to be me and asks fir remuneration of any kind, that person is an imposter.  I only request votes.  If any one does try to claim to be me to obtain financial advantages, please report that to me at once!

Winter in the Savanna Quest and Binocular Collection Mission

Note from Freyashawk:  I just had my second cataract procedure two days ago, but I am a stubborn woman, and was determined to publish this post for the players who need help or who appreciate my site.  I would ask for your votes for HM. Freyashawk if you feel the site is a worthy labour, but more than that, please tell other farmers it exists and that all timed quests always are published as quickly as possible.  I intend to become more active again in writing posts here.  I receive no rewards from Google or any one else.   I do not ask for Google cards or even Friendship Flowers.  Only your votes, and that only because Freyashawk is a name associated with guides for decades, and I want players to be able to see that I still am committed to this project of helping other people enjoy the game.  Please do not mock me for typographical errors.  I am doing the best I can with these new eyes of mine.

Farm Beauty Contest:

Even veteran farmers do not appear to understand the change in the character votes.  Theme votes from 3 of the 4 characters now have a maximum of 36, but the number of total votes required to earn the maximum reward remains 6000 votes.  The new total therefore cannot devalue your farm's rating in terms of attaining the decoration Reward for 4000 votes and the avatar Reward for 6000 votes.  What it actually means is that more decorations have been included in the theme book.  This is good for farmers.

Penny's Magic Cauldron Riddle Solutions August

When I could use a Mac, I posted screenshots of these, but the app is more primitive, and posting photographs is a nightmare logistically.   I took the screenshits of all the solutions, and sent them to Kaye, who translated them into text.

You can solve three riddles per day without paying.  Each additional riddle costs 1 RC, and you automatically are given the solution.  The base will be a theme item in the next Beauty Contest.  Note that this base placed on your Farm will give you a total of 9 votes per day for them from your own characters.

New Seaside Expansions 41 through 63

I am not seeing well with either eye at this point.  It is very frustrating.  I cannot see the numbers without blur.  
You will find all other farm expansion requirements in earlier posts.  There is a Search Box in the Web Version of this site, and you can opt to view the web version by tapping on the option at the bottom of your screen.  I do try to add Labels to help players with the Search function.

Note from Freyashawk:
If you study these requirements, you will see that you really need to upgrade your own Research Lab, your Island, your Resort, buy and use the Gadgets on your Upgraders, and upgrade Darryl's House as well as reaching a fair total in terms of Landscape Points.  Special products from Island Machines are required as well.  You can gain Mastery of these to produce the products you need..  

The Barbecue and Pizza Machines often are difficult to complete, so players may need products from them even when they have attained high levels in the game.  Ultimately,  however, you do yourself a disservice if you do not invest in your own upgraders and increase their levels ro be able to make the products yourself.   They will be needed again. 

Many of the items needed can be produced using Batch Production.  These include the Level 3 Gadget items for the Upgraders for Machines and Animals, such as the Angora Hair Balls and Brown Angora Hair.  Others require Level 5 Gadgets that produce the item randomly only, and Barch Production never can be used.  When you ask for Carrot Dolls or Fruit Platters from.a neighbour, thr production of 100 of either item would be the result of a great deal of time and labour.

There are posts on this site that deal with the Upgraders, requirements for every level of upgrade, the Gadgets and their cost as well as the items they produce.

Sports Festival Quest and Sports Shoes Collection Mission

Warning: I just had a cataract procedure, so errors are likely as I had to put back the patch for the new eye, and I am almost blind in the other one.  The new lens is wonderful, but I removed the patch too soon, and the glare and eye strain gqve me a bad headache.  Patience is necessary.

HM. Freyashawk did not make the top 10.  I need to coordinate my neighbour list better.  The Farm that matters in the Beauty Contest is HM. Freyashawk, because Freyashawk is the name that has been associated with strategy guides.  Nonetheless, I would like to thank farmers who cast their votes for HM. Freyashawk, and really hope the next Beauty Contest can show a better result.  I feel it is important to make certain the Contest is honest.  I cannot believe 55,485 votes is an honest total. In fact, I tend to think any total above 30 000 is suspect.  The top two winners in the last Contest were disqualified but, despite the promise of Support to send the legitimate winners the rewards they had earned, that was not done.  Is it or is it not important to make certain that when we engage in any activity, our efforts are not wasted?  That is why I make an issue out of this.  Neighbour requests that are accepted but where the new neighbour never appears on your neighbour list is a way for cheaters to gain access to votes.  Communities with open membership are another.  My cousin has a Community where he had open membership originally.   Suddenly, he and other members were inundated with false neighbour requests.  He changed the settings to allow only by invitation.  Imagine, though,  a Community created solely for the purpose of obtaining votes from farms that are not legitimate.   Perhaps I should give up, but I am a stubborn woman, and I despise cheaters.

Stargazing Camping Quest and Telescope Collection Mission

A new 11 day quest has been released in tandem with a Collection Mission.  The reward for the Collection Mission is a new premium tree, the Karonda Tree.

Many errors here.  I really should not be doing this until my vision is fixed.  Anyway, correcting now.

I urge farmers always to try to complete the Collection Mussion even if you cannot complete the traditional quest, as you will probably be able to access the Quest from the Lighthouse after the timer expires, but the Reward for the Collection Mission is a premium item that will be in the Market but require RC to purchase.

Note that you will need the new premium Black-Necked Swan Lake, available in the Market for 15 RC, to complete this Collection Mission.

As HM. Freyashawk, I want to thank you for your continuing support and understanding of the eyesight issues that temporarily (I hope temporary!) have made updating this site very difficult recently.  I hope this will change in August and I will be able to complete all the untimed Quests and Darryl's Adventure tasks then.  Please be aware that many of the 'new' Lighthouse Quests are NOT new, and are published on this site in their original form.  The Rewards have changed, and some of the tasks may have changed.  I will be publishing the new versions after the vision procedures, provide those go well.  I also would like to create a new post that would help new farmers with all aspects of the game.  So much has changed.  For example, the Stovehouse post, so vital once, is irrelevant now.

I need new neighbours who actually are willing to vote for HM. Freyashawk in the Farm Beauty Contest.  My farm ID is in the Members List again.  If you have been sending votes to Asgard or RosewoodSanctum instead, please send to HM.Freyashawk.  I am asking for a valid reason.  I would like to be in the top 10 again, and if the only reason I do not reach that is because the winners have cheated, I would like for us to address the inequity, and try to persuade Support to fix the issue.  The fact is that the No. 1 and No. 2 farms in the last Contest were disqualified instantly, but the rank was not corrected, and rewards that were promised to the valid top 100 were not given.  HM. Frwtashawk should have ranked No. 9 and be given the rewards for ranking in the top 10.  The Farm Beauty Contest has been infected by dishonest hackers for a long time, but I would like to try one more time to reach the top 10.  It has nothing to do with the little rewards.  It is a measure of whether this site remains of any value to farmers.   Also, the rewards for Rank 11 through 100 are the same.  The only way to determine if disqualifications are corrected if for some one in top 10 to report the results.

I really believe the Rank part of the Contest should be eliminated if it always will attract cheaters and hackers.  

Farmers should be able to organise their farms to reach 4000 and earn the Reward Decoration without any votes.  If they complete the new Base and boost theme thereby by 9 character votes daily, they should  be able to reach 6000 without any neighbour votes.  I often suggest the purchase of one premium decoration that gives 6 character votes daily.  That, with the new base, boosts theme by a total of 15 character votes daily if theme is not at maximum.  Those premium theme decorations tend to be included again and again in the Contests so the investment is long term.

HM. Freyashawk lost half of the Darryl's House items with the update that added a second floor.  Trying to work with Support to restore the  missing items took priority over the Beauty Contest issue .  As of now, most of the items have been restored, and I am very grateful, but still working with Support to obtain the items that are missing still.

This brings me to another point.  Fortunately, I had registered all of the items in my Gallery.   I believe that was critical in being able to show I had earned or bought them all.  So do register your items!

I apologise for ranting a little in game chat and in the FB group when I found my Darryl's House an empty shell after the update.  There are real life parallels unfortunately when many items disappeared from my mother's home, so I imagine that made the game situation more emotional for me, but negativity never is productive, and it was wrong of me to react that way.  

If you still find this site useful at all, please vote for HM. Freyashawk.  If there is another site out there that is better, then I am happy to retire.  My aim always has been and still is to provide free access to any player without need to join a Facebook group or register with Google.  I do not allow any advertising on this site, so never make any profit from it.  I hate adverts myself, so would not impose that on any one else. 

Telescope Collection Mission:

70 from Cucumber
50 from Beef
30 from Swan Feathers*
  *Produced by Black-Necked Swan Lake, Available in Market for 15 RC
10 from Cherries

N.B. Collection rate from a non-premium Tree me the Cherry Tree requires about 30 Harvests where premium Trees only need about half that to produce the required total

With respect to the following quest, the most difficult part for low level farmers involves the Island Crop, Pineberry, and products made with it in Island Machines, as high development point requirements are needed to unlock the Crop itself, and high level Mastery to unlock the items produced by the Machines.  I believe 3 Star Mastery of both Machines is needed.

Cancer Starry Sky Activity

This is one of the astrological Stage Activities where the farmers uses a magic Wand to activate a little group of tasks that expire after two hours.  You receive one Wand per day.  You can opt to purchase another for 2 RC, or await reset.

There are 7 stars to complete the constellation of Cancer and the final reward is a Cancer decoration.  You can activate them in any order.  I am assigning arbitrary numbers here.

Note that you can scroll back in the menu to complete past Constellations as well during the seven day period.  This makes this Activity one of the kinder ones.

Note from Freyashawk: My eyesight has diminished to the point where I cannot see a screen well or any bird in the sky either.  Numbers are very difficult.  Procedures have been scheduled, but until they occur, I am not able to do this work properly.

HM. Freyashawk lost about half of the items for Darryl's House in the last update.  Kaye has sent a message on my behalf and I sent multiple messages.  All itens were registered in the Gallery.  They absolutely should restore them.  The uodate emptied the House, and only some itens were to be found in storage. The loss is considerable and unacceptable. 

Thanks to many farners complaining about the cheaters, Support finally promised to give Beauty Contest rewards to those who actually earned tgem, but that has not occurred yet.  I believe in accountability.  It is not only for my sake that I ask that Support actually address their own errors.

Surprise Trip Quest and Barcelona Tiles Collection Mission


A new 11 day Quest was released in tandem with a Collection Mission.  Remember always that once the Collection Mission expires, it cannot be performed and the Reward becomes a premium item in the Market.  The quest sequence on the other hand, usually can be accessed from the Lighthouse.  Quests are divided into four parts.  Only completed quarters (each consisting of three tasks, will be credited in the Lighthouse).  Anything less than a full quarter will have to be performed again.  So complete 1 through 4, 5 through 8 and so on if you cannot complete the entire sequence before tge expiration. 

Many thanks to wonderful and multi-takented Kaye for her invaluable help always.

Darryl's Adventure 800 to 900

Please note that all earlier tasks are published on this site.  I have added a label for Darryl's Adventure to each one, so any site search should bring up all the posts.

I wanted to thank wonderful Kaye for sending me the task list.  She is one of our administrators and an amazing contributor in terms especially of untimed quests.

Note about Neighbours: Players should not feel any obligation to visit up to 310 Neighbours daily.  When a farmer visits you,  he or she obtains rewards.  When you have Blue Box cleanable decorations on your Seasise or Islsnd Farm, any visitors will receive significant benefits from THEIR visits.  The game developers have placed unnecessary stress on farmers to make these visits.  This is a game.  It should be a pleasure, not a duty, and your Neighbours should be glad that you have crops, trees, and cleanable Decoratikns on your Farm rather than complaining if you cannot reciprocate.  The Buddg system likewise has become almost sadistic in terms of perceived duties.  Again, a Buddy who visits you obtains rewards.  If you play regularly and respond to daily requests,  have Pets and Fish they can borrow, that should suffice.   Many of us suffer from real life medical conditions or the pressure or jobs and families or any other number of difficulties.  Being a good Buddy or Neighbour means being supportive.   I have made sk many good and caring friends in Seaside over the years.  Do not allow this game to destroy rather than give joy to your neighbours.

I have been updating this site for over 8 years.  It is unpaid work.  I do not allow Goigle to advertise on my sites,  so it has been strictly and solely work done to aid farmers in better enjoyment of Seaside.  Unlike some people, I never solicit Goigke cards or Friendship Flowers.  If you receive requests for payment from some one purporting to be me, they will be fraudulent.  My accounts were hacked.  Cataracts have advanced to the point where numbers are unclear.  I am typing these into the site because Kaye sent me the tasks, and I would not see her efforts wasted. It is increasingly difficult for me.  Recently I installed the app for Blogger to try to make the site more secure for me.  It has a very basic set of options, and editing is difficult.

Penny's Magic Cauldron Riddle Solutions

I do not know how to use the app to delete or add photos, but all solutions should be here.
The following are all duplicates, but there appears to be no option to delete selected images in posts when using the app.  I am sorry this post is not more elegant.  I have no desire to sign in on my computer,  as no one has been able to give me expert aid against a fairly invasive and sophisticated team of hackers,  not to mention the extended gaslighting attempts.  At least the general public perforce is becoming more aware of the dangers of sharing personal memories on social media.  When some one, even an old friend, asks about the name of the street where you lived as a child, or your favourite pet, favourite teacher, best to bite your tongue  because this is what is known as data mining.  Fortunately,  security questions are being supplanted by biometrics and two step authentication, but sad to say, those overly trips down memory lane may be designed to rob you.

Connection Error Quest and Hifi Headset Collection Mission

A new 11 day quest has been released in tandem with a Collection Mission.  The reward for the Collection Mission is a new premium tree.

Special tasks require Pets to dig Chests on Paths, use the Bone Hook to fish, and tending flowers in the Botanical Garden 15 times.  You will need the premium Macaron Machine to complete the Collection Mission. 

Note that the Wi-Fi Router is a wall decoration for Darryl's House.  There are limits to the number of each category of decoration that can be placed in Darryl's House.   The Menu is found in the little building above the Doll Structure.

I would like to thank every one who voted for HM. Freyashawk in the Farm Beauty Contest. I was ranked 8 globally at reset, but ended at No. 12.   I know it is not easy to send votes daily.  I always felt ranking in the top 10 somehow was a measure of the value of this site.  The Farm Beauty Contest really is two different contests occurring simultaneously.  The first is to reach 6000 votes for the player to earn all the rewards.   The decoration reward should be able to be achieved by any Farm with votes from the 4 game characters.  Farmers who have played for many years or who are willing to spend some cash on premium decorations should be able to obtain 6000 votes from the four characters without a single neighbour vote.  For example, Rose...tum Farm  and As...d Farm usually reach 6000 without any neighbour votes.  For farms like these, neighbour votes essentially are wasted.  Those farms actually ended with almost 7000 votes which gave no extra rewards and ranked them at 1100 globally, along with thousands of others.  I know it was intended as a gesture if support, but it would have been effective only with respect to HM. Freyashawk.   HM. Freyashawk, on the other hand, needed every possible neighbour vote to try to rank in the top ten, not because my Farm is superior to any one else, nor because I am a better neighbour, nor to boost my ego,  but for the sake of this site.  I created this site to give farmers free access to game information without any need to be part of Facebook or register with Google.  After my accounts were hacked,  I was reluctant to use my accounts at all, but I have tried at least to publish quest information.  I intend to complete Darryl's Adventure because Kaye took the trouble to log all the tasks.  I always have felt that any votes for HM. Freyashawk were on behalf of my wonderful administrators as well in our Freyashawk Faceboom groups.  The whole Beauty Contest system is clumsy and almost absurd.  It is a pity that the Contest does not allow votes for Communities, for example, or Groups of Farmers, and indeed that cheating seldom is addressed.  In any event, increasing blindness has made this unpaid job of posting extremely difficult,  so I am not certain I will be able to continue until I have surgical procedures done.

Blessings to all, and I thank you for your support and kind messages throughout the eight years I have farmed with you in Seaside.
The game has enlarged itself to a point where it has become untenable for me to cover every aspect on a regular basis.  I would like d to create a post for new farmers at least because my original posts for them no longer reflect the vast expanse of this mobile game.

Incidentally, the Swim Ring Machine is being sold for a limited time in a special sake.  Its products often are demanded by the Dragon but players should be aware that those demands need not be met.  You can fill the orders that come easily and not search I'm desperation for some one to sell you a limited RC item.

Artistic View Quest and Paint Tubes Collection Mission

A new 11 day quest in tandem with a Collection Mission released at a time when many farms still struggle to complete the Renovation activity on the Activity Stage.

I need to confirm all of these tasks and proofread, but do not have time right now.

Meanwhile, please send votes to HM. Freyashawk if you still use this site.  Although my account was hacked on Google, I still make the effort to update the site, and I am the only person who taps in the information.  I thank my administrators in my group for assisting with information, but I have to update the site always myself.  So votes for HM. Freyashawk help me see if any one still uses the site! The developers claim they have stopped the cheaters, so actual votes might count this time.  Many thanks for your support.  I hope to complete the Darryl’s Adventure post this weekend.

Note that you will need the new premium Instant Noodle Machine to complete the Collection Mission.  Special tasks are fishing with the Bone Hook, tending flowers in the Botanical,Garden, and cooking a dish in the Stovehouse.

There was some error for this site because I did not allow a log in from my Mac, but I was testing something, and it should not be a ‘dangerous site’ unless some one is targeting my site deliberately and maliciously.
