Some, like me, hve a strategy in mind for farm 11..... We have built up coins and got our farmcash ready... excitment grew even more.... Then the flow of messages on this board grew tih each day - hoping that we were getting ever closer to the release....

But disappointment started setting in... the boards started chatting about jokes, then vacum cleaners.... still no release..... Some of the jokes were pretty good - and some of the vacum cleaner stories were enjoyable as well.. Maybe the vacums were there to suck the excitment out of us while we await the release..

I cannot speak for others, but i am getting more than a little disappointed. Donèt get me wrong - I really enjoy FarmTown. In fact it is the nly game i play on FaceBook. It has kept my interest for some time - and the regular updates are one of the reasons. The game has matured as well as it grew (ex. start all buttons, tools). But the regular visits are becoming disapponting... no release..... and no messaging to let us know what is happening.

You would think someone could simply add a note to let us know what is happening. Rumours state there were issues with the release... Others speculate on the dates... timelines between updates... But no real news....

St this point I am a little disappointed, and getting more so each day...

Well said ...also my feeling disappointed , discouraged. oh well

I'dd say that it's about time to quit believing in
[1]. Updates,
[2]. new levels,
[3]. farm 11, and
[4]. the developers.

I would enjoy hearing some news, too. Even something like, "We're having some issues - hope to be able to do the release late next week." Then I'd know I could plant longer crops again and load my factories another time. Just a ballpark guesstimate would be fine with me. 'Course there would still be complainers if the guesstimate didn't materialize when expected but I still think it would be better than nothing. Them's my thoughts anyway.

Nuh-uh. I don't wanna quit believing. It'll happen. Their time-table just isn't matching mine this time. Hmm. Come to think of it, no one even ASKED me my time-table. Imagine!

How about now? Now'd be real good . . .

Please report to my Farm 1, anytime will do, someone will be available to help you thru this crisis 24/7! Cost is being picked up by the Mayor of Farm Town. A light refreshment and snack will be offered!

Ha! Very good. : ) I do enjoy coming here and commiserating with y'all when we're all waiting for a new release.

In answer to your question on "Down Under" I just refer to other countries/islands/continents/planets etc.. as elsewhere....

I can understand that! I am the same way. Some of the farms you see on here are absolutely amazing!

I was just wondering if the bad weather could have anything to do with the new release not being there yet. Just a thought.
I have been spending a lot of time reading through all these post's since Thursday. Love all the jokes, you almost make it worthwhile waiting for the update. And why do some of you think we only going to have 12 farms? I was on a game, can't remember the name a year or so ago, I think it had something like 40 farms. Not that we could manage that many in farmtown. Really to much work, but we can dream of more than 12 farms i am sure, even if just used for decorations and trees. Love this game and we are lucky found some games where the dev's are nowhere to be found, no support what so ever.
Happy farming to all my fellow addicts.
