Blossom Derby


Tips for Blossom Derby


1) For achieving maximum points all derby participants should do blossom tasks only.

2) The number of blossom tasks available on the task board at any given time depends on the number of farmers opted in:

3 to 5 farmers generate 2 blossoms
6 and 7 farmers generate 3 blossoms
8 to 10 farmers generate 4 blossoms
11 and 12 farmers generate 5 blossoms

3) It is of advantage to delete the unfavorable blossoms right away so new, hopefully, better blossoms will appear. We for sure delete all time-consuming blossoms such as goats milk, growing strawberries, wool and basket tasks.

Preferred blossom tasks are: Mining, Help, Town Train, and sellable crops such as soybean, rice. And wheat can be quickly used to make wheat bundles. 

As soon as we have all the blossoms we can have on the board, there is no need to delete non-blossoms. 
When one blossom task is finished by all and it is deleted, then it is time to clear the board of the non-blossoms in 15 to 20 second intervals. 
Then, in 29 Minutes the first new task will spawn being a blossom and having the 15 seconds between the new tasks gives us the time to decide to accept or delete that particular blossom.

4) Be mindful of our lower level farmers, there may be tasks they are not able to do.

5) Blossoms do have an expiration timer. 

6) Once a blossom task was done by all it must be deleted.

We coordinate and communicate via FB messenger, blossom derbies require teamwork. It is frustrating to all if one farmer does not finish her/his task and everyone else has to sit and wait.
A good practice is to prepare for a blossom task so when it is your turn it is completed in a timely manner.

7) It is expected of our farmers to make the commitment to play the blossom derby per our rules. It is perfectly acceptable to opt out of the blossom derby week if this seems to demanding.
