I suppose you could turn off the trees to really hunt him down, but for now, I'm OK with the situation. :)Anne C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09444051201220766948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6889198.post-91287535932529719762009-05-23T22:22:21.567-06:002009-05-23T22:22:21.567-06:00You can also click on the pig and then "move" on t...You can also click on the pig and then "move" on the little dropdown, and put him wherever you want. ;)MWThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09446603415730525882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6889198.post-84490139414439181712009-05-23T12:03:23.203-06:002009-05-23T12:03:23.203-06:00FB = Facebook

Often, in FB games, they require you to "friend" someone merely to enlarge your resources in the game. Farmtown does not. Which is good.<br /><br />And the pig must have been hanging out in the forest. I often have to wait for him to be visible when I take a "photo." <br />I'm very lucky that they have not included a function (yet) where unpenned animals damage the crops.Anne C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09444051201220766948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6889198.post-68657066099676594292009-05-23T07:07:13.674-06:002009-05-23T07:07:13.674-06:00Also, knowing pigs, I think it wouldn't just flop ...Also, knowing pigs, I think it wouldn't just flop by a bed of strawberries.

Is this a typo for "FT"?<br />Also, where, in the last of your FT pictures, is your pig? I found you at the center, with a wagon (I think). But no pig.

I'm starting to drift away from the restaurant myself - at this point there's only one diehard left in the group I play with, but we'll convince her to shift over too soon enough... bwahaha... ;)<br /><br />I was thinking to set up my farm to look like the abandoned ruined churchground that one of my vampires lives in, but so far stuff that'd look right for it isn't available, and the stuff that's available is too high-level. I might end up doing something else entirely.MWThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09446603415730525882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6889198.post-4212595564511492212009-05-22T08:07:47.004-06:002009-05-22T08:07:47.004-06:00MWT, I'm not really sure.
Restaurant City is nice ...MWT, I'm not really sure.<br />Restaurant City <I>is</I> nice in that you get to decorate it (I like my Garden Cafe very much). But there are a couple things there that bore me a little. The limitations on ingredients (which may be less limited if you're one of those 500 friends people) and the need to keep the game on if you want to be accumulating points. I like that FT seems to have a lot more inexpensive flexibility. I can make changes that don't necessarily affect the efficiency of the farm, but entertain me. RC becomes enormously less efficient even with small changes in configuration.<br />Also in FT, there's the community aspect. Mainly with my IRL friends and family (as you've experienced, they're a friendly bunch), but even with others. Yes MMORPGs have this same thing. I like that FT has both the creative aspect and the community aspect together.<br />(When I played D&D back in the day, I liked being the DM (and making my own campaigns). That, again, combined creativity (and w/ D&D, storytelling) with community.<br /><br />Hmm... mentioning storytelling reminds me... I think there was one point where I really started to enjoy FT. It was when my sister was describing something on her farm as part of the story of her farm and I started to look at my farm as part of a story.<br /><br />Does that make sense?Anne C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09444051201220766948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6889198.post-54344260021422684352009-05-21T17:25:14.422-06:002009-05-21T17:25:14.422-06:00My Farmtown name is Chez Ronczy, and I am becoming...My Farmtown name is Chez Ronczy, and I am becoming addicted, sigh, alright, already addicted to Farmtown.<br /><br />Ditto what Anne and Aileen said.<br /><br />It's nice to earn virtual money while I sadly make no real money at the moment.

You still get to decorate a space, and an exterior, though I guess it's harder to choose exactly what food you want to serve because that's based on what ingredients you have. <br /><br />Also, MMORPGs and a number of multiplayer computer games have the same qualities of social chatting to them.MWThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09446603415730525882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6889198.post-58276386466174879752009-05-21T11:52:40.291-06:002009-05-21T11:52:40.291-06:00My Farmtown name is Aileen (I know, bo-ring!) and ...My Farmtown name is Aileen (I know, bo-ring!) and I am a Farmtown Addict.<br /><br />It has been an exceptional amount of fun to "hang out" together at each other's farms and just chat about life. For those of you who don't know, our sister Karen lives in WA and therefore we don't get to hang out much IRL. It's been a tremendous amount of fun. My current challenge is keep my farm feeling natural and cozy while expanding the acreage at the same time . . .Mummy Grabillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16334034298962491582noreply@blogger.com
