Everything about the FarmVille Tuscan Wedding Celebration

Published

on

Another surprise update from Zynga for FarmVille, this time introducing to the game the Tuscan Wedding event, a new feature and celebration that will reward the most active farmers! If you want to find out everything about this newly released feature, read on and prepare to be rewarded!

What is the FarmVille Tuscan Wedding Celebration?

A new event similar to the previous Easter Basket event, in which you need to collect ingredients which can further be traded for Favor, which can be used to redeem different Tuscan Wedding items that will make your farm more beautiful.

“Nonna needs help throwing her granddaughter an amazing wedding! If you can find her ingredients, your favor will increase, which you can use to get all new Tuscan items! Find the ingredients from gifts, or around the farm.”

What does this mean? Well, unlike the previous events, now having friends is no longer vital for getting the Favor (although they would help the most). However, while working on your farm you can find different ingredients which will be automatically added to the wedding tent in FarmVille and, if a collection is complete, you can exchange it for Favor. You need 4 of each of the following ingredient to collect the favor: Olives (found while harvesting Olive trees), Truffles (from pigs), Goat milk (from goats), Eggs from chickens. Once traded in, it will give you 5 favor.

If you don’t have all the items (like Olive trees), you should not panic! Your neighbors can send you each of the above-mentioned ingredients as gifts, so you’ll eventually get quite a few of each item. However, it appears that different ingredients are locked – in my case Olives will be unlocked in 2 days, Goat Milk in 4, Eggs in 6, and I can only gift Truffles:

So what to do to get more FarmVille wedding ingredients?

Either let your neighbors know which ingredients you need and make them send you the gifts, be active and harvest tons of the indicated items or purchase packs of them from the market for 5 FV cash!

Once you receive 5 of any single ingredient, you’ll have the option to post a feed to your wall. The first ten neighbors to click this feed will receive a one of the same ingredient for their own Tuscan Wedding.

Clicking ‘Progress’ in the Wedding Tent menu will show how much favor you have in comparison to your friends. Whenever you pass a neighbor on this comparison chart, you have the opportunity to post a feed about your accomplishment that will also give your friends another chance to collect 1 random ingredient. 10 Neighbors will be able to collect one free Spring Egg when clicking on the feed within 24 hours.

VERY IMPORTANT: Adding ingredients does NOT count towards your Progress rate, but fills up the Favor section (click the tab to see it). You actually need to have 4 of EACH item in order to trade them in and notice any changes in the Progress section!

What can you get by redeeming Favor for items?

10 Favor: Wedding Cake
20 Favor: FarmVille David Pig
35 Favor: FarmVille Apollo Butterflies
50 Favor: FarmVille Tuscany Fountain
75 Favor: FarmVille Spaghetti Sheep
100 Favor: FarmVille Tuscany Pisa

We’ll make sure to update the information once we have it about the FarmVille Tuscan Wedding Event. Please feel free to share your thoughts on the update and help us fill up the missing data! Also, feel free to share this article with all your Facebook friends using the buttons below, to help everybody get started with the FarmVille wedding event!

    I should have enough olives to float a battleship, it keeps saying I can trade but nothing is lit up and I can’t trade. It is a lot of fun the things you think up and this is the first time I have been stumped twice. That precious mustang is more elusive than the stallion.I’m still having fun though. Thank you a bunch

      When you look inside your wedding tent have you clicked on where it says favor at the top? That should take you to where you need to be to turn in what you need to get your favor , but you do need 4 of each, the truffles , eggs, olives and the milk

    • natoomb

      June 10, 2010 at 4:19 pm

      You need at least 4 of each ingredient to be able to trade…So you can have 5 ga-zillion truffles but if you only have 2 eggs, you can’t trade….

    • M Bonnifield

      June 22, 2010 at 7:18 pm

      Have the same problem. I’ve collected tons of ingredients; it comes up that I can trade them but when I click on trade them it states that I don’t have any ingredients. Why is this????

  2. Yolonda Fern Landrum Thomason

    May 31, 2010 at 4:01 am

    You are so wrong this is the first time I came to this site.

  3. Yolonda Fern Landrum Thomason

    May 31, 2010 at 5:11 am

    Okay now I’m back, another mustang showed up, you wanted my email again so I went along with that, 12 spaces for names showed up but there were no names. I went ahead ans clicked on all 12.I am not tyying to be difficult I just want to know what is going wrong. All this just can’t be my fault. Thanks again.

  4. Karen

    May 31, 2010 at 5:30 am

    Yolanda is right–I have something like 14 Truffles and cannot trade them in for favors like I should be able to. What is going on with that?

    • nick

      June 7, 2010 at 6:38 am

      For you as well as everyone else who doesnt get this, you need 4 of EACH item before you can trade in. which means 4 olives, 4 eggs, 4 truffles, and 4 milks. not just 4 of 1 thing

  5. Calin

    May 31, 2010 at 9:08 am

    As explained in the article, you can’t trade in a single ingredient for favor, you need to have 4 of EACH item in order to be able to get the favor points.

    That’s why you should all use the gift links posted in the related stories section and start sending all types of items to your friends!

  6. Tobi

    May 31, 2010 at 6:45 pm

    Where can I find the links to send any ingredient? Thanks.

  7. RUTH

    June 1, 2010 at 6:04 pm

    how can I find the site that was posted yesterday about getting a convenient package for the tuscan wedding…. (all the liks in one convenient place)

  8. Luciana

    June 2, 2010 at 2:45 pm

    Those who are having a hard time with your trades for favours on FV, you have to have 4 of each item to collect.

    The wild mustang thing works not always but it worked for me once and I have a mustang now on my farm. Let your friends know that you choose to send emails too so they are aware and will then help you.

    Hope that helps.

    Links for the Tuscan gifts have been disabled by Farmville. You can gift eggs.

    I’ve harvested 30 chickens and then I looked into my Wedding Tent and I only had 6 eggs!
    The same thing happened with Goat Milk, Olives and Truffels.

    I have over 40 chickens, 25 olive trees, 50 pigs an 40 goats on my farm but I have only 20 favor yet because this stupid game doesn’t work

  11. Shetty

    June 12, 2010 at 6:13 am

    Shouldn’t you get an item for each animal/tree you harvest? I have 20 olive trees, but when harvested I only received about 4 olives. The same with the animals, whats up?

    • Tricia

      June 13, 2010 at 3:20 pm

      It’s the same as harvesting perfect bouquets. You don’t get the olives for each tree you harvest.

  13. Carla

    June 24, 2010 at 3:02 am

    It would appear that only certain varieties of pigs give truffles & only certain types of goats provide the goat milk for this particular event. I’m not sure whether it’s the boer goat or the saanens goat that seems to be the only one providing the proper goat milk, but the party pigs and the black pigs are not producing truffles – only the regular pink pigs seem to be awarding truffles. Anyone else noticing the same?

  14. Marguerite

    June 30, 2010 at 3:30 am

    Yes Carla, I have noticed that the party pig’s do not provide truffles for the wedding an that not all my goats and other pigs to either. I also notice that whenever a friend shares their favor I almost always get olives as a gift (from clicking on the tent from a friends give away) I have lots and lots of olives, and very little goat milk.

  15. Kathy

    July 2, 2010 at 4:07 am

    I’ve noticed that when it comes to collecting, truffles, milk, etc. I can only collect them only on the first pig, goat, or whatever that I harvest. If I don’t harvest them all at once I can collect another one if I wait for a long enough interval (haven’t figured out yet if it takes and entire day or a shorter time period. I’m trying to stagger my harvest on my olive trees so I can collect them every day.

  16. Emily

    July 17, 2010 at 2:15 am

    I don’t have a tent AT ALL. It’s not in with my gifts and I can’t see it in the market anywhere.
    Can someone please help me to find it? I have loads of gifts that I just can’t accept because I need the Wedding Tent for it!

Fastest Way to Get Money in Blox Fruits

Published

on

Money is one of three primary currencies in Blox Fruits. It lets players purchase items like Fighting Styles, Swords, Guns, Blox Fruits, Accessories, Abilities, and Raid Chips. While the prices are high, Money is the most accessible currency in the game, players can earn it quickly through straightforward methods.

Players can hold up to $1,000,000,000, giving them substantial purchasing power. In this guide, we’ll reveal the fastest ways to maximize your Money earnings in Blox Fruits, helping you afford the upgrades you need.

How to Get Money Fast in Blox Fruits

Blox Fruits offers multiple ways to earn money. Each method has its advantages, whether you’re looking for steady income or quick cash injections.

Money can be earned through:

  • Purchasing with Robux
  • Game Passes
  • Defeating Enemies & Bosses
  • Redeeming codes
  • Quests

Let’s break down each method to help you choose the best approach for your gameplay style and goals.

Purchasing With Robux

Buying Money with Robux offers instant access to the exact amount you need. Players can purchase:

  • 30,000 Money (50 Robux)
  • 150,000 Money (200 Robux)
  • 405,000 Money (499 Robux)
  • 900,000 Money (999 Robux)
  • 1,500,000 Money (Best value at 1,499 Robux)

While 1,499 Robux may seem steep, many players choose this route for its immediacy and guaranteed results. Some even buy Robux specifically to acquire their target Money amount, skipping the grind of other earning methods.

To purchase Money in-game, open Menu, select “Shop,” scroll to ($) Money, and choose your amount. Alternatively, visit Blox Fruits on Roblox’s website, click “Subscriptions & Passes,” and buy your desired game pass without launching the game.

Game Passes – 2x Money

The 2x Money game pass doubles all Money earned from NPCs and Quests. It doesn’t affect chest rewards but maximizes earnings for players focused on combat and mission grinding.

This pass pairs well with questing strategies and NPC farming, making it a powerful tool for efficient Money earning. Players looking to earn money fast through active gameplay will find this especially valuable.

Defeating Enemies & Bosses

Enemies (NPCs) spawn in groups across different areas, providing steady Money drops when defeated. While regular enemies offer little rewards, bosses offer substantially higher Money and EXP.

Sea 1 introduces starter bosses like Gorilla King and Yeti, while Sea 3 features powerful ones like Stone and Hell’s Messenger. Your earnings scale with boss difficulty.

It is always recommended to equip strong fruits like Dragon or Kitsune for Boss farming. These premium fruits maximize your damage output and survival, leading to faster kills and more Money.

Redeeming Codes

Codes offer a simple path to free Money, though they require patience and timing. Developers give them away through social media, Discord servers, and in-game notifications.

To redeem simply click the gift icon on the left side of your screen and enter your code. While most codes grant EXP multipliers, some provide direct Money rewards. Check official channels regularly for new code releases.

Quests

Quests provide steady Money while advancing your character. They scale in difficulty and reward as you progress. Each quest has a level requirement you must meet before accepting. Early quests might ask you to defeat a few NPCs for hundreds of Money. Later quests demand more challenging tasks but pay thousands. This makes questing an efficient way to earn while naturally leveling up.

Final Words

Money is your progression in Blox Fruits. Whether you choose to purchase it with Robux, farm bosses, complete quests, use codes, or combine multiple methods, consistent effort pays off. Pick the strategy that matches your playstyle and resources, then stick to it. The path to earning money is clear, you just need to choose your method.

Ping, Not Panic: A Canadian Gamer’s 2025 Travel Stack – Steam Deck & Switch Updates, Remote Play, Con Wi-Fi Triage, and Instant Data Abroad

Published

on

By

Canadian Gamer

You’ve cleared security at YYZ with a backpack full of cables, a Steam Deck, and a wish to dodge Day-0 patch hell. Across the ocean, a con queue snakes past a venue that’s already melting its Wi-Fi. The goal is simple: play more, fiddle less. This field-tested guide gives Canadian gamers a clean travel stack—latency expectations, handheld tuning, hotspot etiquette, and a data setup that just works when you land.

Latency 101 (Know Your Ceiling Before You Chase Frames)

You can’t beat physics, but you can plan around it. Treat latency like weather: check it, adapt, win anyway.

Practical targets on the road

Use CaseTarget RTTBitrate TipNotes
Cloud gaming (Stadia-like/GeForce NOW)≤ 40–60 ms10–25 MbpsBest in major metros; hotel Wi-Fi often too spiky
Remote Play (PS/Xbox → hotel/phone)≤ 60–80 ms5–12 MbpsCap at 720p/30 for reliability
Online shooters (native on handheld)≤ 40–70 ms3–6 MbpsPrefer mobile data over café Wi-Fi
MMO/Co-op (native)≤ 70–120 ms1–3 MbpsSlight input float is survivable

Rule of thumb: In crowded venues, mobile data beats venue Wi-Fi for stability. Save giant downloads for hotel fiber; use cellular for sessions and comms.

Connectivity in 3 Minutes (No Kiosk Drama)

Skip airport SIM lines and roaming roulette. Install a travel eSIM at home so Discord, Remote Play, and patch checks work the second you land.

How to set it up

  1. Buy a plan online; you’ll receive a QR code.
  2. On your phone: Settings Cellular/Mobile Add eSIM → scan → label it Trip Data.
  3. Set Trip Data as Mobile Data, keep your Canadian number for calls/SMS/2FA.
  4. Turn Data Roaming ON for Trip Data only. Test once, then toggle data off until touchdown.

Want a simple option you can activate in minutes? Compare and set up Holafly’s esim for travelers.

If data naps after landing: Airplane Mode 10 seconds → confirm Trip Data is active → Data Roaming ON (that line only) → quick reboot.

Device Playbooks (Steam Deck, Switch, Remote Play)

Steam Deck / ROG Ally (and handheld PCs)

  • Patch discipline: On hotel Wi-Fi, queue updates manually. Avoid “auto update everything” at 8 p.m. when everyone’s streaming.
  • Shader cache sanity: Pre-cache big titles before you fly; it saves battery, heat, and stutter.
  • Proton/version pinning (Deck): If a game breaks, roll back to the last known-good Proton. Keep a note of your stable pair.
  • Performance caps: Lock to 40–45 fps with a frame limiter + half-rate vsync; drop TDP to keep temps—and fans—civilized.

Nintendo Switch

  • eShop regions: Pre-download; don’t count on regional eShop switching abroad.
  • Cloud saves: Confirm sync for your travel titles; manual upload before leaving home.
  • RF survival: Pair controllers in your hotel room, not on the show floor where Bluetooth is chaos.

Remote Play (PS/Xbox/PC streaming)

  • Encode targets: 720p/30 at ~5–8 Mbps is “it just works” on the road. 1080p/60 is hotel-fiber territory.
  • Controller input: Wired (USB-C) or 2.4 GHz dongles beat Bluetooth in noisy RF environments.
  • NAT hiccups: If your home router gets stubborn, enable UPnP or forward the official Remote Play ports before you travel.

Power & Thermals (The Silent Boss Fight)

  • GaN charger: A dual-port 45–65W brick keeps phone + handheld happy.
  • Power bank: 20,000 mAh with USB-C PD (at least 30W out) will top up a Deck on trains and in queues.
  • Right-angle cables: Friendlier for hands; fewer port mishaps.
  • Heat management: Pop a slim kickstand and lift the back off fabric surfaces. In flights, cap brightness and fps to cut heat and whine.

Security & Accounts (No Lockouts, No Leaks)

  • 2FA: Keep your Canadian SIM active for OTPs; data rides on eSIM.
  • Password manager: Ensure offline vault access for those check-in moments with bad Wi-Fi.
  • VPN judgment: Use it for banking; avoid it for services that geo-fence streams/games unless you know the rules.
  • Captive portals: Accept the splash page on your phone first, then tether the handheld.

Con & Tournament Survival (Queues, Badges, Backups)

  • Badge & ticket hygiene: Screenshot every QR into a “Tickets” album—basements kill signal.
  • Backpack loadout: Hard case for handheld, microfiber cloth, tiny stand, spare microSD, earplugs (hotel AC), cable ties for field fixes.
  • Comms: Pin a Discord channel for your squad; set slow mode so plans don’t vanish in meme spam.
  • Filming etiquette: Ask before filming cosplayers or booths; offer to DM selects.

Data Options: Quick Compare for Travellers

Airport SIM per countryQueueNoMediumLocal ratesTime sink + SIM swapLong single stay

Packing List (Gamer Edition, Carry-On Only)

  • Handheld + rigid case
  • 20k PD power bank + dual-port GaN charger
  • Two short USB-C cables (one right-angle), 1x USB-A adapter
  • Travel router (optional) to tame hotel Ethernet/Wi-Fi
  • Spare microSD (formatted and empty)
  • Foldable stand, microfiber, mini cable ties
  • Earbuds with foam tips (better isolation on planes)
  • Compact multitool (check airline rules if in carry-on)

A 24-Hour Fly-to-QueueTimeline (Copy & Tweak)

  • T-18h (home): Pre-cache shaders, update core games, verify cloud saves, download offline maps. Install eSIM, test, then toggle data off.
  • Airport: Join captive portal on phone, then tether the Deck to check for critical hotfixes.
  • Flight: Battery mode: 30–40 fps cap, low brightness, story games > shooters.
  • Hotel check-in: Speed test. Queue big downloads now, not at 8 p.m. when everyone’s streaming.
  • Con morning: Phone data on, Discord open, badge QR ready. Handheld in case; power bank 100%.
  • Evening: Batch-export clips, upload on hotel fiber; schedule posts for Canada prime time.

Troubleshooting in 30 Seconds

  • Lag spike mid-fight? Drop res to 720p/30, move off congested Wi-Fi to mobile data, or stand near a window.
  • Packet loss on venue Wi-Fi? Forget the network; tether to your phone.
  • Deck wont charge while playing? Use a PD port capable of >30W and a certified cable; lower TDP/fps to stay net positive.

Final Save: Play More, Fiddle Less

Travel gaming works when you make latency predictable, power abundant, and data boring. Pre-patch at home, cap frames smartly, treat venue Wi-Fi as suspect, and land with connectivity already solved. Do that—and keep your crew aligned on Discord—and your next PAX, Gamescom, or Tokyo pilgrimage will be about games, not guesswork.

Nerd Culture: A Fresh Social Hub for Gamers

Published

on

Video Game

Does gaming society need a reboot? Many people think so, with current platforms viewed by newcomers as either a mass of impenetrable content, or a world of strange and unwelcoming cliques. Nerd Culture aims to change that with a welcoming, engaging and accessible platform where all are welcome, and everyone can build their own hub, both for online celebration of all things nerdy, and for getting together offline in real life. 

From PC and video gaming to board games, cosplay to fandom across movies, games and media, all areas of nerd culture are celebrated in smaller, safer hubs — including fun distractions like word games that bring people together through shared geekiness.. Places for fans to create their own spaces or join ones they feel at home in. 

Features of Nerd Culture

Nerd Culture was built by a small team who felt like most of us do when facing the wall of social pressure around anything we love. It offers:

Easy and advanced group creation and search, allowing members to create, find and build groups dedicated to topics and events of interest. Note that members need to be 18+ to sign up, with fan, content creator and business categories delineating a level of interest. 

Forums help create thematic communities focused on whatever is popular or niche, but important to fans with adjustable chat and feed features to help share fan voices in a reasonably-sized gathering, without being swamped by bots, trolls and other agent provocateurs. To keep them out, smart user safety features allow for intuitive moderation, chat mute and reporting tools to ensure safe social experiences.

When in the society and forum of their choice, fans can use real-time secure messaging to discuss the latest news or opinions, and collaborate in real time. Privacy settings can be customized to a level users are happy with, with privacy and safety settings that let them control who sees their content.

As part of the offline features, fans can arrange meetups and event management to link up with like-minded hobbyists in the real world, with event scheduling to promote and manage real-world events.

Fans Benefit from Rewards 

To encourage engagement, contributions, responsible behavior and society-building, users can level-up their status, earning rewards through a built-in XP system. They can earn points by starting discussions, organizing events and helping people fall in love with new and familiar hobbies, unlocking levels, achievements and real-world prizes as they go.

“It’s like leveling up by helping build the community and fostering real connections,” said Nerd Culture co-founder Steven Weingarth. “Creators and members can also gain Nerd Cred for being a community advocate, and that unlocks more than just bragging rights.”

Nerd Culture is free to join and use, helping to recreate the social community of popular topics before they become swamped by low-quality content and bots. Designed for and by fans of gaming, fandom culture and creative hobbies, Nerd Culture welcomes new friends, helps them dive deeper into favorite interests or explore new worlds. 

By helping users connect, discover and adventure together, with intuitive tools to help build meaningful communities, there’s plenty to see and do both online, through voice and video calls with your new buddies, and through new friends out in the real world through meetups and hangouts. 

About Nerd Culture 

As the founders (six lifelong nerds) put it, our new social platform sets out to fix the most frustrating problem: Why is it so hard, even in giant cities like LA, to find people who share my niche interests?

“When I moved to LA, I was shocked by how difficult it was to find a D&D group. Sites upon sites, Discord invites, bouncing between Reddit threads and Meetup and Facebook groups” writes Co-Founder Steven Weingarth. “It felt like yelling into a void. So our team set out to build the platform we all wish existed — a single place to connect and share stories with people over the things we love.”

Whatever your experience, many of us have felt unwelcome or overwhelmed in one place or another. Nerd Culture aims to offer a welcome hand to the nervous, or a new platform that we can build to create a more welcoming space about the topics we love.
