MadManixHi Nick,
1) The description of the "Call A Friend" button says "Each of your friends can help you whack once every 5 days". However it seems that the counter is reset at midnight on Sunday (Canadian time). So shouldn't it state that they "can help you whack once every week"? Or are there plans to make the counter reset every 5 days? 2) It's not that I dislike the flower boxes, but I'd rather see the event rewards build up to something large (like it was in the past). Why not have a (Chinese?) zodiac tree (zodiac signs which can be hung in a special tree)? You could add some mini-events if there aren't enough large events to get the 12 (+1) parts... |

FlybabyLast Edited February 28th 2022 at 2:19 PM Hi Nick,
Just wondering if you have any plans to bring back the Mother's Day mini event. It came to my attention when someone asked about the Breakfast Tray reward from the 2015 event. For some reason, I don't have that ranch item (although I was playing back then). It's really cute, and I wonder if you could make it available again for BBs purchase like other event items. Thanks |

ajv1Hi Nick,
Just noticed that there is a PASTEL SHEEP listed as available through the Counting Sheep mini event. Has this been there or is this new? Never noticed it before. |

VikingHelgaHi Nick, about the dialog box to select friends to help out: there is a button that selects "random friends" automatically. The problem is that there are friends on that list that do not play often, so we always have to sort by "recently played" and select one by one, which is a hassle. Would it be too hard to reprogram that button to select "recently played" friends, so that we can actually use it? It would be of great help. Thanks!!

davepagsnyHi Nick,
How about adding an option to hide crops that we have raised to level 10 in the crop research list? Also a sort by level would be nice. Thanks |

VikingHelgaLast Edited March 1st 2022 at 11:00 AM Seems I have eaten some alphabet soup this week and can't shut up... but I'd really wish there was a way to get rid of the infuriating sugarless drinks. Maybe a recycling bin in the commons... a recycling bin would be a good way to recycle all kinds of stuff we do not want anymore... it could spit something back... that would be fun.

Russel Dentonhowdy fellow bushwhackians
1- let me start by talking about BarbZak and VikingHelga's idea, about the SUGARLESS drinks we get in gifts etc, i suggested a idea last year sometime, which involved us the PLAYERS, we could hand in the sugarless drinks to a npc, and in return we would get the CI'S that drink has associated with it like hat's, gloves,cape's etc, i still honestly think this is the way to go, because it is a win-win situation for both parties 2- this is in regards to SBA prizes.....some of the prizes for the last few SBA's seemed small in their value, i sort of thought the prizes would get better in value for the SBA/level we were at, i noticed for one SBA in the salt desert area or jungle one we get 3-4 red packs which is good and all, but something else could of been added like perhaps 2-3 Pristine feed vouchers perhaps, or even 4-5 pet treats for level 10 etc. It would really be good to see Pristine feed vouchers and pet treats added for prizes for SBA's 3- seeing how we have attracted a fair few butterfly pets etc, from eggs and the butterfly event, i was thinking, what if we had a fence that looked like glass walls, like a terrarium, of sorts. happy to hear folks thoughts and revelations |

FlybabyLast Edited March 2nd 2022 at 12:16 PM I agree with VikingHelga, Russell, Barb. There have been many great ideas for what to with all the of sugarless drinks that we have accrued over the years.
I would like to have a small cap placed on the amount of sugarless drinks we can accrue(no more than 5 like the consumables in the hub stores), or better yet, discontinue them altogether. |

VikingHelgaLast Edited March 2nd 2022 at 5:47 AM @Flybaby.. I loved your answer before editing... the "no one wants them, no one likes them"... made me LOL last night :D
Come on devs, deliver us from those insufferable sugarless drinks! hahahahahahh I understand coding is difficult and all... but how hard can it be to just delete some lines of code and make the drinks go "poof"?? hahahah |

MadManixQuick question: is it possible to add a "+5" button for the energy packs? I think this might lighten the (small) delay we experience when there are many players playing simultaneously.

WhackedCrafterI drink the drinks, with one I like (like DeathPuddle), then transfer to mannequin, then drink a drink I don't like, wait the 24hrs, and I get changed back to the one I liked, and as long as I don't change anything on my Avatar it will stay that way, but if I do happen to lose the one I like, then I go to the mannequin and transfer it to me. I do, however, don't think they should be in the hard earned Gift Baskets. I do, however, think the Gift Baskets need to quit being so stingy with what they give as gifts. Like have more VIP Vouchers more often or BB more often. I didn't get any BB until opening the 15th Gift Basket. VIP Vouchers are worse. I might get 1 every 30 Gift Baskets, the same with satchels. I quit turning in event tokens for satchels because it is a waste of tokens. I just stick to getting the achievement and to buy gift baskets to trade or as prizes for my contests. Anyways, I like the above suggestions.

VikingHelgaLast Edited March 2nd 2022 at 11:39 AM We should have a poll:
How do you feel about the sugarless drink game items? A)Love them B)They're ok C)They are kinda annoying D)Hate them E)Loathe them F)I don't care about the drinks but hate this poll! (Can VikingHelga please shut up about the drinks already?) G)What are these drinks everybody is complaining about? |

Well I'll be darned. I didn't know that we were now able to dress our mannequins after we drink the sugarless drinks costumes. We weren't always able to and I've been asking Nick for that option for quite a while ... He must have sneaked it into his updates, and I never realized. Thanks for pointing this out! Now Nick, if you could only fix the newest hair colors (new store items last year) so they show up properly on the mannequins, I would be a happy camper! :-) |
