New Release -- September 27th, 2012

[quote=Ragis;5295110]Regarding the memcache ... who was really being hurt by people using it over and over again? It fixed the corrupted data problems, which is what I used it for. Now we have no recourse if there is a data/loading problem because the developers won't troubleshoot their programs before they update the game.

It's sort of like third grade (and life). If one person takes advantage of something and finds a loophole, then everyone gets punished.

I agree But at the same time great update with the turbo boat (when it is fixed) it will make it so much easier fishing

Granted, however, this is not the third grade, this is a game. 90% of my friends who play Farm Town are adults (99% of those are over 30) who do not need a nanny to go behind them and clean up their messes, they know how to do it themselves. This is what the memcache was for, to clean up the messes that the developers didn't care to address because it was a matter of actually reading through thousands of lines of code to find a single misplaced letter/command.

To the person who said something about it staying Beta so it could stay free: If Facebook is public they should be paying the game creators to keep their games on Facebook's servers since this is what keeps people playing and staying with Facebook. I have beta tested dozens of games since I was in college (more years ago than I care to think about) and the ones that came out of beta testing and remained a free game site. I keep checking back with the ones I really enjoyed and they are still free and still have 10,000 to 80,000 active players (active meaning 1 login for 1-3 hours each day).

These are my opinions, agree or don't agree.

Hi everyone!

The memcache link was causing problems within the game due to misuse and overuse. We are currently looking at various options and would ask for your patience in the meantime.

We will shortly be opening a new troubleshooting thread on this subject.. so for the time being any further posts about the memcache link in this thread may be removed.

Thanks.

- We re-enabled the clear_memcached link so you will be able to clean most of the volatile data from memory EXCEPT that information that will otherwise enable the following:

- Infinite lottery collection, infinite gifts sending and infinite facility working

Ok I am at a loss too......where is this Memcache??? I've played since may of 2009 and noone has ever said anything about it to me. Someone please answer as this has been ask several times and I never see an answer to it.


And regarding the Funeral Home.....I for one buy the stuff but then chances are after figuring out what I need to stock it.....I never pay any attention to it again. Leave it alone, Raul.....people complained about the Pool Bar too. If you don't like it just don't buy it. I have lost both my parents and my very good friend is very very sick with cancer right now....the funeral home doesn't bother me or her.

The memcache just deleted the FT cache which is different than your computers cache, it deletes data that their servers hold.
