A small request of Georgia, if she has the time; Can it be made so that the pool with the arched bridge crossing it can be turned. I'd like to use it as an entrance item, if possible.
I know you've both got a lot on your plates already, so when she has the time and if it can be implemented. Thank you.

This is an idea for a future Christmas contest... design an ugly sweater. Different shaped necklines, variety of colored tiles, some tiles could be triangles, different textures, etc.... think like the floor tiles available, kind of like a tangram shape we would fill in. Prize could be that the top three designs would be available from Mrs. Claus.

Hi Nick,

Ranch item request: Parade balloons for our ranch.

We have a Turkey Balloon from the 2015 Thanksgiving Event. And the Parade Float mini golf piece includes a small version of the Turkey, Cat, Dog, Pumpkin, and Pizza slice balloons. Would it be possible to offer the parade balloons in a future event or make them available from the Amicus Holiday Enthusiast vendor?

Christmas ranch suggestions
*Large and small Nutcrackers
*Christmas candy: small candy canes (to place on tables), large peppermint lollipop posts/poles, etc
*Ginger bread girl/boy toy (not pet) to go with our gingerbread houses
- I also like the idea of a ginger bread gnome that Russ suggested.

Also, as a reminder, players including myself have had a glitch with the green Christmas tree changing to the White Christmas Tree (with blue decorations) when both are placed on the ranch and in the ranch house. It looks fine when first placed, but it changes color after the game is refreshed.

1- so for events we can buy past pets/mounts , pets cost 200 BB's and mounts 300BB's, i think they should drop in price for every year since they were released, like cars they depreciate in value, same thing, and maybe more players would be interested in getting the past pets/mounts perhaps


2- Gnomes... more gnomes please, here is some i have come up with

xmas event - a mrs Claus gnome - this year if possible
a gingerbead man/woman gnome
a grinch gnome

a natalie gnome - nates birthday event

a love heart gnome - valentines day

a easter egg gnome - easter

Halloween - witch and devil



3- New quests for AI and Misty suggestions

AI New Quest idea's

- Pesky Pest control - find 10 rats/spiders and whack them
- round up 6 drunk tourists
- Extinguish 6 flaming tiki masks
- Fish up 1000 energy


Misty new quests

- Find 20 squeaky toys
- Find 20 flea collars
- Find 20 misplaced food bowls
- Fish up 6 remedies for pet flu

From the Chat Room on 11/11/2024

JAFOinBW2 wonder if the devs. would consider having marijuana as a crop choice lol in the game.

To which I replied: Suggest it as a gold crop with Catnip as an energy crop.

Everyone else on that night liked the idea, especially the part about Catnip as an energy crop as so many of us, you included (I saw your pretty kitty one evening during the stream), have cats.

Just suggestions for possible future crops.

I would like to resuggest my idea for a future thanksgiving quest. Add a marching band to the parade. Our bushwhacker could find the instruments for the band and the assembled band could march in front of the balloons. Also MORE balloons. Giant birds, frogs, big red dogs, rabbits, ducks, ogres, heroes, clowns and moose.

WHy can some users request clearing a path help multiple times? Today got a request 6 times from the same user. Regardless of the number of requests, I can only help once.

I like Russel's idea of decreasing the cost of pets/mounts. How about making past evet items available for whatever the "event coin" is but at double or triple the price. For this event the items are 15 Thanksgiving coins. Make them 30 or 45 coins.

the cooldown of the Casino Bonus Chest.. the cooldown is for opening the chest? or collecting puzzle pieces?
Nick, can you please add the countdown to cooldown-list at the Town-Crier list, like the dailies countdown.
or, the countdown will show up above the chest. would be good also.
thank you

Most items should be near 'free' to obtain.

i like Mat's idea above, but do not charge BB's because not all players can/could afford it perhaps, some players might be
living paycheck to paycheck, and enjoy playing the game without spending money, so why not allow us to change/swap dailies for the
following idea's

- charge gems or Gold or both like the energy packs do

- we have to do a special quest to get it changed perhaps

Oh this would be fun! And we haven't had a shirt designing quest yet. I wonder if we'll need tech to support V-Neck shirts... I'll note this down to consider either way.

The parade balloons would be fun to have on your ranch! The Holiday Enthusiast isn't a bad place to get them either. I'll note that down to consider.

Nutcrackers would be fun! I'm surprised we don't have any already. Consider these noted. Same for the other suggestions. Very cute.

The Christmas tree glitch continues to be a mystery. We'll see when I get a chance to look into it again.

1) I'm not too concerned about the Bush Buck price of these event pets and mounts because of the Pet & Mount sales they might appear in. I try to scale the discount in those based on the pet/mount's popularity.

2) These are great event gnome ideas! Noted.

3) Some fun quest ideas to freshen these dailies up. Noted!
