Okay, I'll go first...

:?: Does anybody know how you achieve the Tuesday Special on the Farmers Bounty Wheel, or even what a Tuesday Special is?

I'd like to know that, too. The only thing I know is when the pop-up comes up saying I got the Tuesday Special, it's very rarely a Tuesday. :lol:

Farmer's Bounty Wheel.
I always figured it was when you got the last item done when the wheel things turn blue. Then you get double of the items.
I not even sure how many times you have to land on each item for them to turn blue.

I've been paying attention lately and I think you're absolutely right, Nan. But I don't know how many times you have to land on a segment either. My last segment turned blue yesterday so maybe I'll try to keep track .

I thought so. After I get this wheel over with I will try and keep track. If for nothing else but my own sanity! LOL
I think I had one turn blue on Sunday. It is strange when it happens. I was shocked a little because it was Sunday and it said "you have completed a Tuesday challenge" Or something like that.

Yeah, the whole Tuesday Special part baffles me, too. Never happens on a Tuesday.

Ok, my question is about the neighbors bar. What determines if a persons icon has a blue "visit" button or two rectangles (blue visit and red hide)?
Is it solely based on the person? whether they play or not? Or if they visit your farm?

Some of my neighbors visit my farm and I visit theirs, but their icon is the two rectangles.

I am so confused (sometimes)! LOL

I'm just as confused as you, Nan. lol Such a good question!

I used to think that players with hide buttons had stopped playing the game or, at least, hadn't played in a really long time, or was someone I never visited. Now I'm not so sure. lol Maybe it's all 3, but I have a neighbor with a hide button who visits me about once a week.

Still, I check every so often and hide anybody I can that doesn't visit me or I don't visit them. The exception are farms that I know have lined sprinklers at the front. I keep them to use as needed.

I like hiding people because it's keeps my neighbor bar small, I only have about 125 neighbors on the bar, so it's easy to find people.

I'll be interested to see if others have any ideas about this, too. :-)

Oh! Oh! I can actually answer this one! LOL

There are two reasons your neighbor will have the two buttons - the blue "Visit" and the red "Hide".

Cate, you are correct that if someone hasn't played in a very long time, those buttons will show up.

But there is another reason. Those buttons show up for anyone who became your neighbor through the weekly fair (county, world, etc).

If one of the people you are competing against, asks to be your neighbor and you accept or vice versa, but you do not invite them to be a friend also, then both buttons will always show up for them.

Which leads me to another question...

We used to have a search bar at the top of the page (when not in full screen view) where you could type in a player's name in order to find their profile, thus giving you the option to ask them to be a Zynga friend. That search bar is no longer there and hasn't been since Zynga revamped the co-ops. So, how do you ask someone to be your Zynga friend now?
