Shared Orders: Before, During & After -- Details of SO Reward Distribution
Explanation of Rewards:
Distribution of rewards vary widely depending on the time of the farming week, mainly related to the reset of the Bonus Favor icon, whether Bonus Favors are maxed out and whether or not the co-op goal is achieved yet. Below are detailed explanations.
Between Bonus Favor icon reset and completed Co-op Goal:
Completed SO’s are only beneficial to the Co-op as a collective between 2 very specific points of time during the week of game play, that is, after the Bonus Favor Icon resets and until the Co-op reaches its goal. During that period is the only time that Bonus Favors can be earned. Details follow:
There are very limited rewards from SO's that are completed before the Bonus Favor icon has reset for the new week (usually early Friday evening), after the Co-op has completed the maximum allowed Bonus Favors in a week and/or after the Co-op Goal has been achieved. Completed SO’s only benefit the owner in those situations. See below:
• Co-op – None
• Owner – All the SO’s rewards: coins, favors & 2 orders added to their Personal Goal
• Last Contributor – None unless the contributor is also the owner
When a SO’s is started but not completed in the above situations, the items contributed are placed in the player’s inventory when the SO expires.
The graphics below show that on the SO board only the rewards for the owner are active and the rewards for the Co-op are grayed out in the above situations.
Owners occasionally complete their own SO before the Bonus Favor reset or after Co-op Goal is reached and receive all the SO’s rewards. The SO’s might be especially enticing if the order requirements aren’t very high or they may have other reasons such as, e.g. a ton of the order's product in their inventory, has extra power (maybe certificate), wants the extra Favors and/or to add orders to their Personal Goal total, etc.

- The Owner of the SO receives the coins and Favors and 2 orders are added to their Personal Goal.
- 5 Bonus Favors are added to the Co-op’s total for the week up to a maximum of 50 per week.
- Two orders are added to the Co-op’s Goal total.
- The person who finishes a SO, that is, the last person to contribute, doesn’t benefit personally (unless they're also the owner). They don't receive any coins or favors and the 2 orders are not added to their Personal Goal.
- Instead, their help is acknowledged by attributing the 2 orders that were added to the Co-op total: 1) beside their name in the My Co-op tab; and, 2) on the Progress Bar at the bottom of the Order Board if their avatar is showing.
- The total towards their Personal Goal (on their chalkboard) will be 2 orders less per completed SO than what’s showing to the Co-op members in the Progress bar and My Tab on the Co-op Board.
