Here's the in-depth analysis based on the developers' past performance. Farm 8 will be released on a Friday (all 4 previous farms have been Friday releases) Previous three intervals were 7, 9, and 8 weeks. Seven weeks from the release of #7 would have been December 31 -- so that's out!!! I'm predicting January 21 (to give the devs time to recover from holiday madness, even though that's 10 weeks) I'm also predicting it will cost 26 million to buy up to 18 x 18 (you can take that to the bank!!!) based on previous patterns. If the whole 24 x 24 costs less than 1 billion coins, it will be a miracle or the devs will have taken pity on us poor dirt farmers. Remember, #7 cost 922 million!!!

BTW, to the very helpful fellow farmer who suggested the macromedia link, thank you!!! Unfortunately, it took me to an Adobe "Error" page. Any other suggestions?!
