As the option is there to select friends that have last played, have crops or by there level. How about an option to select it by your favorite friends. Or friends you struck a deal with.

You can help 10 friends each day why not make a way so that you can select those that also help you. So you do not have to go trough the list or note down their names on a piece of paper.

These are interesting suggestions. I would personally have a hard time picking my "favorite" friends. =)

yes to a way of knowing who has helped your crops. I get so few helps that I don't think I should waste helps on people not helping me.

Nick it still does not tell you who have helped your crops, but if you work an agreement out with certain people (to wash each others backs) then you can favorite them and see them faster.

Great Idea Ben I have asked Noemi this several times previously and she told me she would forward it to Devs.
Perhaps as We can Help 5 People on Crop Helps 5 times the section next to Invite Friend has 5 places Could we choose who we put there and then just help those 5 people as they help us back? Would that be hard or have a way to Tag a person for them to be there in front?

I see this as a possible kind of favoritism.
If I'm in an agreement with a friend then I appreciate when they help me out, but I don't need proof that it was them who helped me out.
If I forget to help someone out because my schedule is not the same as theirs, I wouldn't want them to punish me by them holding back on helping me out when they would normally do it.
this is a 'social' game, not an antisocial 'clique' game.
all that being said, I did send sacks of hammers to specific people in eb1.

but in actuality I just help random peoples farms. I help everyones gates, events and energy packs every time I enter the game and whenever there is a notification popup while I'm playing.

I don't see whos help gave me energy packs. I do see whos rigged my events, that's a little nice. I never see whos fast and helped me open locked gates, not ever since the first 6 or 8 happen perhaps minutes after I ask.

just my opinion.

well now, for people who complain about things taking too long:
the way I think farming help should work is to press one button, as many of your friends who have withered crops gets unwithered at once, if you have help left then any of your friends with trees in land still needing clearing gets helped, if you still have helps left then anyones random crops get helped or empty plots gets helped.
I have stopped farming help, only do it when I need just a tiny bit of energy to level up and don't want to fish. But I can say6, if I can't find someones crops in an overly elaborate farm I immediately go to the next person in my highest friends. but I think that should even be random.
