🏝️Active Farm Helpers🏝️

About Us:
We're North America based, but welcome anyone who speaks English. It's very important to a guild to understand whats being said or asked. Unfortunately, the game doesn't offer translation. -------- We are a semi talkative bunch, however, some days it can be quiet on & off as we toggle between real life work & priorities, especially M-F during the day. 😀 We still manage to stay very active. By being active, we continue to grow as a team which will benefit you in growing your farm & your knowledge of the game. We keep a Drama Free zone, which we've been fortunate to avoid. -------- With us, explore Sunshine Island and play with both pexperienced & new players. Get tips and advice on the game below. Let's enjoy & relax!
WHAT ACTIVE MEANS TO US
In order for your guild to keep growing and moving forward, we require ALL players to be TEAM players. A team player contributes on a regular basis by contributing to all active tasks when in the game.
***Contribution + watching Ads = Active
There will be times when the task item may not be ready to harvest on your farm, we understand that. Those are the times where watching the Ads only is acceptable. However, if you can prepare/plant the items needed in time, please do so. It's extremely important during Guild Tournament Weeks.
EXAMPLE - You log-in and we are actively on Carrots + Wheat, if you do not have carrots ready, then plant wheat to begin to help fill the quota.
SIDE NOTE - If you do have carrots to contribute, we expect you to also help grow wheat immediately after unless you need to leave. The more you contribute, the more pink loyalty hearts you can earn. These are very important to growing your farm.
REMAIN ACTIVE, BE A CONTRIBUTER.
⚠️ IF YOU'RE EXPECTING TO BE OUT OF GAME MORE THAN 3 CONSECUTIVE DAYS, PLEASE LET A LEADER/OFFICER KNOW. THE GAME AUTOMATICALLY GIVES YOU THE BLACK INACTIVE DOT ON GUILD LIST AFTER 3 CONSECUTIVE DAYS OF NOT LOGGING IN. INACTIVITY WILL GET YOU REMOVED AFTER 1 WEEK, UNLESS YOU NOTIFY US AHEAD.
IMPORTANT FAQs:
The following are all important to know.
HOW DO I KNOW WHAT TASKS TO PREPARE AHEAD FOR?
Go to the guild message board and you will see a list of tasks we are currently working on. Message board is located just below lighthouse on guild island. This is very important on the week of a guild tournament which is every other week.
WHERE CAN I FIND THE ACTIVE TASK?
Go to the bottom of game toward right and you'll see an icon to click for information on current task. It should be located left of ship icon. If no icon, there's not an active task.
WHAT IF I DON'T HAVE TASK ITEM(S) READY?
When possible, start required task item unless it's over 2+ hours long. Otherwise, watch the Ads offered on the task page.(icon left of ship icon)
WHY ARE GUILD TOURNAMENTS(GT) IMPORTANT?
Guild tournaments and events are what the games about. The higher we place in tournaments, the bigger the reward when tournament ends. Rewards = Tournament Coins, Cargo Coupons + Gems
WHAT ARE CARGO COUPONS USED FOR?
Save them for Personal Tournament (PTW) Weeks to help fill your ship and plane cargo Crates when you're low or out of an item. PTW are every other week between guild tournaments. The higher you score in these the more reward you can win. Rewards = purple Tournament Coins, Cargo Coupons + Gems. PTW is completely optional, as it affects only you. Do not waste coupons during GTW, instead, request help, there's no reason to rush filling crates during GTW.
HOW DO I DONATE GUILD COINS(GC) & IS IT REQUIRED?
No, it is not required, however, keep in mind, it helps the entire team so those able to donate, please do. We understand some may not be able to. To donate, go to guild island and click on the guild bank located top left in circle of buildings and the game offers will pop up. The GC are purchased with a players personal purple gems.
WHY ARE GUILD COINS (GC) SO IMPORTANT?
GC helps your guild upgrade and boost important features for ENTIRE guild. Features available are as follows;
*Ad bonuses (this gives us higher Ad bonuses while doing tasks)*Project Contributions (yield higher bonuses for completed tasks)*Loyalty Point Bonus (yield more pink hearts)*Help Limit Bonus (# of helps we are allowed daily)*Loyalty Bonus per Help (more pink hearts per help given to teammates)*Guild Member Limit (allows us to add extra slot for higher membership)
HOW DO I KEEP UP WITH MY SCORE DURING PTW?
On your main island, behind the airport, you'll see a light purple top tent. When you see a trophy over it, that means PTW has started(usually at 11PM CST), Once you reach the required tier to see your points, it will show you your score and the score of the players you're competing against when you click the tent. Never be discouraged with your PTW. Its optional for your own personal gain. It really depends on the competitive nature of each player, as to how you do. 😃 -------- SIDE NOTE: We still leisurely do guild tasks during PTW to build free GC.
HOW CAN I SEE WHEN FELLOW TEAMMATES NEED HELP?
Go to the lighthouse on the guild Island and click on it. There you'll find a list of members. The ones needing help will have a yellow note with red exclimation mark to the right of their name. Click on each note and hit "visit" to take you to their farm. You will see the handshake icon above the airport and/or ship. Click there to see what that member needs. If you can help, please do, as you will get helps too when members have items you may need. It's only fair to help others. SIDE NOTE: Currently, each player is allowed to GIVE a total of 8 "helps" per day before your limit is reached. However, thereks no limit on how many helps you can RECEIVE. By helping, you gain experience, coins and loyalty points. Also tournament points during PTW. We try to use all 8 each day when we have the items needed.
WHAT DO I DO IF I CANNOT FIND AN ANSWER HERE OR NEED MORE HELP AND/OR INFORMATION?
Please, always know you can ask anything in the guild chat or DM a leader and/or officer. We will never mind helping you.
We all started out in the same way so we know how confusing some things can be, especially for newer players. ♥️
IMPORTANT TIPS
TIP #1: During PTW, the more happiness you have, the bigger point bonus you'll get for each crate you fill. (Market, Planes, Ships) This is a valuable tip as you climb in levels. The higher your happiness, the lower your cost is for productivity regardless the day or tournament/event. When looking at the housing decorations, you should do your math before purchasing decorations that will not maximize happiness. --------EXAMPLE; On main Island, the 6x6 area fountain for +75 can instead be maximized with 4 of the 3x3 sign posts for a total of +84. You may find signs expensive at lower levels but eventually you will def want to invest in them. Another good investment is the Trellis(on main island) & the swimming pool(on Tropicalis) when they unlock for you. They can be upgraded with pink Loyalty hearts. This tip is for all three islands, do the math. 🧐 Each island has its own best/worst decorations. Jade Island doesn't yet have a special decor but soon will.--------TIP #2: A good housing tip is to stick to 3 houses until very advanced in game. Instead of using up your valuable spaces and building materials for unneeded housing, focus on upgrading those 3 houses and most importantly, your TOWN HALL for big boost in players & happiness. You will have more spaces now for other items like fields, cow sheds, bakery, Pine Farms etc.. This tip is for all three Islands. --------TIP #3: Always upgrade your bonuses in your Library on the items you need boosted the most. Don't overlook your delivery tab in the library either. These things take a while to unlock and cap but are invaluable in helping you grow your farm. -------- TIP #4: VERY IMPORTANNT During GTW, always plant Carrots, start Iron, Feathers & Coffee grounds in your windmill when logging out for the night. The next day, hold them so we can do our tasks for quicker GTW points. -------- TIP #5: VERY IMPORTANNT Learn your number of items when they are ready to harvest. You can click on all of your fields & product buildings when they are in the works(not when ready) & it will tell you how many yours produces. These numbers will grow quickly on most items so you'll be updating them frequently as you level them & upgrade. We often ask if members have a certain item & teammates answer with item name & the amount that they have ready for harvest or the item name & how long before they are ready. -------- TIP #6: You should ALWAYS have everything on your island producing products/produce you will need. Especially your cow feed & flour(windmill). -------- TIP #7 For quick money when in a pinch, both goat feed & breakfast sell for the best money. The feed mill is for goat feed when you unlock the level for cashmere(goat pen on Jade Island). The breakfast can be produced in the Restaurant on your main island. -------- TIP #8 In the game store, under the "Hot Deals" tab, the first offer is 3 free chest for watching Ads. I recommend you to get these each time the game renews them throughout the day. They give good building/upgrade materials.
