99 Days on FarmVille


Day 89 New FarmVille Gifting

Well, I must say, all of the enhancements to FarmVille recently just means that the developers have been working overtime! A couple of days ago a friend and I noticed that every time you opened a collection or egg from someone in a new window, it offered you something else. Essentially you could open a bunch of new windows (or tabs) on a collection or egg and hold off on accepting until you got what you wanted, like the rare items such as cowbell, blue feather, centipede, copper butterfly, etc. But this cheat code was short lived and within hours FV fixed the bug and now with eggs, they now look like the Easter eggs. You can’t tell if you got a chicken or not and well, that just sucks huh?

I don’t know what it is, but every time I write the word cowbell, I just instantly think of the Christopher Walken and Will Ferrell skit “More Cowbell

Anyway, as for the collections, thanks to the tattletale NancysOveralls on the Zynga Forum, you can open 100 new windows or tabs and you’re going to get the same thing you clicked on the first time. So no more getting to select your “rare” reward because Zynga has fixed this little glitch. But it did put me a LOT closer to getting that blue ribbon. And who knows, I just might get it in the next 10 days.

With the new changes, you no longer need to reload your farm to receive gifts and you now can receive gifts without leaving your farm. The gift box pops back up after you use a gift, which is quite handy. But no more scamming the gifts. The only thing I don’t like about this is that it’s a duplication of your Facebook Inbox. So, you might be clicking on things that you already received, which is just another time suck, in my humble opinion.

Where am I? Level 47, 10 more days of left and thenĀ  you get my fabulous synopsis and review of this game. (I probably could have written it in just a few days after playing it, but this has been quite the experience).
