Jimmy Polston's Farmtown Virtual Farmin' Almanac

Tip, suggestions, prose and art pertaining to Slashkey's ground-breaking Flash-based Farmtown virtual farming game. This game, elegant yet complex, has the capability of being more than just a crop game, but a creative social hobby all its own. This blog hopes to share that enhanced experience. Farm Fearless! Thanks for visiting. ~Jimmy Polston

Welcome!

Dedicated to FarmTown hobbyists, Jimmy's Farmtown Virtual Farmin' Almanac has really cool tips and tricks to help with your farmtown farm, as well as handy reference charts and other useful stuff in help take your virtual farmin' experience to the next level, and possibly into a enriching creative social hobby. This blog is independent of the fine SlashKey makers of Farm Town. Though every attempt is made to keep the information up-to-date, as with any exciting Beta release, we players are honored to be integral in the game's ongoing development--while changes and challenges in the game are ongoing. Patience, courtesy, curiosity, keeping our brains switched "on", and sharing helps us all to move forward and have more fun.

What I aim to do here is to help organize fun information in a clear and entertaining format, while assuming that readers have already read and understand the Player's Guide. However, sometimes the Forum is a bit challenging to navigate, hence this blog. The latest bits of information are regularly being added by the wonderful people at Farmtown Friends on Facebook, as well as in-depth Technical Information, such as How to Clean Out your Browser Cache.

For those wishing to chat, email me or visit Facebook's Farmtown Friends Farmtown Discussion Group--the friendliest and most knowledgeable Farmtown Player Group on the Web. It's a troll-free zone! http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=317700405142&ref=ts

For those who wish to drill deeper into a subject or make suggestions on improving the game for all, please visit Slashkey's official Farm Town Forum and Support pages at http://slashkey.com/

As a special bonus to Subscribers, I'm offering a free set of my FarmTown Crop Charts and the new updated Tree Charts featuring the fresh 2-Day harvestable trees as well as Decorative Trees. The Subscriber versions are in a letter-size printable PDF format for your own use. Thanks for visiting, and as always, your comments and suggestions are appreciated. ~Jimmy

MULTIPLE GIFTING TRICK

MULTIPLE GIFTING TRICK

WHAT IT DOES: This trick allows you to send multiple gifts to the same farmers.
WHAT IT DOES NOT DO: It does not allow infinite gifting; when you are out of gift limits for the day, you’re done gifting for the day.

ADVANTAGES: Your farming friends may love you.
DISADVANTAGES: Selfish farmers will ask for more.
DIFFICULTY: Moderate.
TIME REQUIRED: A little more than usual to send gifts, but not much.
TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS: a Tabbed Web Browser.

This is a Two-Stage Process. Here’s how:

STAGE ONE: SETUP FOR SENDING MULTIPLE GIFTS

  1. Go to the Send Gifts page.
  2. Right-Click on Send Gifts. Select “Open in New Tab” in the browser drop down options menu.
  3. Repeat Step 2 as many times as needed. You will have a row of Tabs at the top of the page.
  4. Select Gift Item as normal. DO NOT SEND YET.
  5. Select Recipients as normal. DO NOT SEND YET.

Each tabbed window is now loaded with gifts to Send with Recipients selected. Each one must be ready to go. Once a person is sent a gift, that person cannot be sent another one until later that day or until the next day.

STAGE TWO: THE SEND-OFF

Here is the really tricky part. Relax. Relax again. Ready?

  1. Hit SEND on the first gift.
  2. CLOSE the tab on that page. You MUST Close that Tab BEFORE the game screen loads!
  3. Go to the next Tab and repeat the Send/Close Tab process.
  4. Repeat until all open Tab windows are closed. If you want, you can send the last gift and just relax so that the game loads as normal.

Maximum gifts allowed to be sent per day are 20 total. Sent Neighbor Requests subtract from the total allowed gift sending that day.
