FarmVille Barn Raising Adds More Storage!

Published

on

barn-expand-storage-uniGreat news, farmers! Zynga decided to offer us an amazing gift starting this weekend: the ability to add more storage to our farms by raising the storage number of any and all of our barns and tool sheds! To find out all the details about the Barn Raising options, as well as how to do it and how to access it, read on the article on Unigamesity.com!

Here’s what the official announcement of the Barn Raising event reads: “Need more storage? Have an ol’ fashioned BARN RAISING with your neighbors to upgrade the capacity of your storage buildings!”

So how do you increase the storage capacity of your barns? With the help of your friends! You will post a wall message saying that you’re hosting a Barn Rising and from that point on, you’ll have three days to get help from 10 friends in order to upgrade the storage room. Or you may upgrade with Farm Cash and get a discount for each friend who’s already helped!

How do you post on your wall that you need to expand your storage space? Simply find any of your barns or tool sheds and click on them. Then select “expand storage” and an image similar to the one above will pop up (click to enlarge for better view). Then, when you click the “EXPAND“ button and post it on your wall then hope that ten of your friends will help you expand your storage.

How much do you expand your storage with this event? Each storage building (Barn and Tool shed) will get five extra storage room after the first level storage is completed, then 7 extra storage after the next level of the upgrade will be achieved!

What do you get in return for helping your friends with the Barn Raising? Except for their gratitude, you will earn 100 coins. Here’s how a wall post will look like:

barn-raising-wallpost-uni

Can you help the same friend expand their storage more than once? Apparently yes, you can help your friend once per day!

Is there a limited number of barns or tool sheds you can upgrade storage for? No!

Have fun upgrading your storage room – something really cool from Zynga since with all the new Farmville items, things are getting quite messy! And if you still don’t have enough neighbors to help you upgrade, why not check Unigamesity’s list of FarmVille neighbors?

UPDATE: It appears that there is actually a limit regarding the Storage space. That is 100 places – after that limit is reached, you will still earn stars from upgrading your Barns and Tool Sheds, but no extra storage space!

    Once you have a Barn Raising…it gets posted on your home page. How do your friends continue to help you raise your barn if they can’t find it listed anymore? I have 4 friends that helped me, but now they can’t find my barn or the option of where they can help again. I can’t help my friends with their barn raising either. Help clarify how we help each other after the initial posting. Too confusing…we should have the option to click on the neighbors barn and help them again.

    gave me the option to post a second request for help with raising a barn (i’m at 7 of 10) and i selected ‘make a second request’ but it didn’t post anything on my page. has it worked for anyone else?

    The pop up says ‘return tomorrow to see if your neighbor still needs help’ . Everyone I know has returned, well after 24 hours, and we all get the same message ‘you have already helped with this barn raising today’. Has anyone returned and helped the same farmer twice or more ?

    I tried my third barn raising and the link didn’t come on my page. How do I get it to post on my page? I have the first link for the barn raising but it says that one is done. Never received the 2nd or 3rd link for the barn raising on my page. Help!!!

  5. Gina

    January 10, 2010 at 9:36 pm

    Yes you can help the same people twice just on another barn raising.

    I got a pop-up but the message regarding barn raising never got posted to the Live Feed, my Home Page OR my Profile….HOW DO I REPOST THE BARN RAISING REQUEST???

  7. Marlene

    January 11, 2010 at 7:06 am

    To get a Floppy Eared Bunny….when you open you farm, go down to the very bottom of the page where there are adds….there should be an add for the bunny. Just try clicking on that and see if it works. Thanks to Mary for the info on clicking on “Give Up” to try and get it reposted.

  8. Marlene

    January 11, 2010 at 2:46 pm

    Hi Mary, I don’t know what else to tell you….I know that Farmville is having some major issues with “tech bugs”. FOR THE LOP-EARED BUNNY…Click on your MARKET box and then click where it says “Specials” the “Lop- Eared Bunny” is the second box on the page. It is next to the Mystery Gift” IT DOES COST 9 FV DOLLARS!!!!! Regarding the Barn Raising…I haven’t a clue. I’m having trouble with that. I eventually clicked on “GIVE UP” and it posted a Message, but NO ICON WITH THE BARN and it set me back to 0 out of 10 friends needed to help. ALSO, one of my friends told me that we don’t actually get another barn, we just get the storage expanded in the one that we have. So if I were you I would just keep trying AND send an EMAIL to Zynga Support. You can go to http://www.zynga.com/support and sign-in (or register) and then submit individual questions or problems. They will give a list of thing that MAY answer your question, but I would suggest that after you sign in, click on the Farmville Icon, go ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE and you will see an EMAIL envelope. Click on that, give them the information and write and explanation and click on “Continue to Submit”. It will bring up some suggestions. Just go down to the bottom of the page and click on whatever “Finish Submitting….” and you are done. They will email you an answer within 24 hours or so (depending on how busy Tech Support is. They are very good about it, and be sure to thank them when you receive an answer that helps. It will get them to continue to answer your questions. They DO work very hard to help us. Sometimes the programs just don’t work like they should but they ARE trying. GOOD LUCK!!!!

    I was able to post the “barn raising” all 3 days to get my friends to help me…it would NOT allow the same friends to help me even though it was 24+ hours from their last time helping me. I finally got 10 friends to help on this 3rd day but it did not expand my storage space…it wants me to pay 10 Farm Cash to expand it (it says progress:10 of 10…Give up or Buy) I thought the purpose of the 10 friends was so you could get it free. Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Thanks

    Well, I’ve went back in (the 3rd time) and this time they have my barn updated to the new storage capacity. I’m thankful for that.
    While I’m posting, I thought I would also ask about “Fenced In”…I have a lot of fence pieces on my farm and FV has only credited me for what I have bought since they posted the new ribbon…my husband, however, has been credited with the amount of fence pieces that are on his farm now (he has not bought any since they posted the ribbon) (he has less fencing than I do but shows more on his ribbons). Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    I bought a 2nd storage which is now simply duplicate of the one I already head. The capacity increased, but when I store an item, it puts the same item in both storage sheds.

  13. Gail

    January 16, 2010 at 9:40 pm

    I have a barn and 2 storage sheds. My inventory is duplicated in each one. Is it supposed to work like this? If so I’ll sell the storage sheds. Who needs them if the same items are stored in every bldg.

    On the “wall” section your YOUR facebook click “Lend a hand” on your own barn raising. Now even though it says you may not help your own farm, copy the link in the address bar and post it on your wall. It is a direct link for others to helping YOU! Mine looks like this…

    This message is for Gail. I, too, was trying to figure out why my items appeared duplicated in my tool shed and barn. I found this:

    • Note: all your items are stored in one central location and can be accessed by barn, tool shed, or by clicking the new storage icon in the toolbar

    So, in my case, I have 1 barn and 1 tool shed. The barn holds 6 items, the tool shed, 2. My storage total, when I click on either of them, is therefore 8.

    Everytime I try to post the barnraising, expand chicken coop, expand storage, the game freezes. Any suggestions?

How to Master 96% RTP Slot

How to Master 96% RTP Slot

Online fruit machines that you can play in the real money mode at licensed and regulated websites controlled by reputable operators are now more popular than ever, and there are many reasons why, which I will reveal here.

I will also be discussing some of the best ways to master online fruitys, especially those with an average 96.00% Return to Player percentage (RTP%) payout rate.

The important thing to remember about online fruitys is that there is no proven strategy that can help you win because winning all boils down to pure luck.

However, there are some useful strategies I think everyone who wants to sample this kind of content should know, which can bring them up to speed in no time. Armed with this knowledge, you can quickly become a master of online fruitys when you next play them on your favourite website.

What exactly is RTP?

The RTP% (Return to Player percentage) payout rate can be calculated for each online casino game.

In short, this value tells us roughly how much an online fruity will pay back after, say, $/€/£100, $/€/£1,000, $/€/£10,000, $/€/£100,000, or $/€/£1,000,000 has been spent [combined] by all those people who spend money spinning the reels on any given fruity.

For example, let’s just say that participants spend $/€/£10,000.00 (or equivalent currency value) combined on the popular Chicago Gold online fruit from Pear Fiction Studios in a period of four weeks, and those same participants, on average, received $/€/£96,000.00 back in winnings.

This basic information tells us that the Chicago Gold fruity had an average 96.00% RTP payout rate over this four-week period. The casino would keep the remaining 4.00% (the house edge) or $/€/£4,000.00 as profit.

That’s the easiest way for me to describe how online fruity RTP works, which most of you should be able to understand. I also found a great description on the globally renowned Johnslots (www.johnslots.com/en/) review site that I can recommend checking out for high RTP slot machines.

What is considered a good RTP for online fruitys, and why does it matter?

The higher the RTP% payout rate, the more likely it is that you will win. For example, a 99.50% RTP fruity will pay back more than one with a 91.25% RTP payout rate for every $/€/£100 wagered. When I found this out, I must admit, I would only play online fruitys with a 96.00% or higher RTP payout rate.

It matters because, mathematically speaking, high RTP online fruitys are more likely to pay than low RTP fruitys.

However, the other important thing to remember is that there might be 1,000 to 1,000,000 people all playing the same online fruity at the same time, and you are not guaranteed to win back $/€/£96.00 if you spend $/€/£100.00.

Winning is all still down to lady luck. For example, I have deposited $/€/£10 or $/€/£20 many times in the past at my favourite sites and have won $/€/£60 to $/€/£100 from that initial deposit on one fruity. Other times, I have spent $/€/£50 to $/€/£100 on one fruit and won nothing.

That’s just how it is. Some gamblers may spend just $/€/£1.00 to $/€/£10.00 and win $/€/£100 or more in those 1-10 spins, and other users might spend $/€/£100 and only win $/€/£1.00 to $/€/£10 in over 500 spins.

A good RTP% payout rate in an online fruity is considered 96.00% or above.

The average is considered to be between 93.00% and 95.99%, and the lowest is anything below 93.00%. In other words, most online fruitys today have an average 93.00% to 98.00% RTP payout rate.

Which online fruitys have a 96.00% RTP payout rate in 2024?

Apart from the Chicago Gold online fruity, many other hit titles have the same payout rate. Examples include the following top-rated titles that you may want to check out, which you can play on a desktop computer or smartphone provided you are of legal age in your country:

  • Esqueleto Explosivo online fruity by Thunderkick
  • Frogblox online fruity by ELK Studios
  • Friends online fruity by [WMS] and SG Digital
  • Rainbow Riches Megaways online fruity by Barcrest and SG Digital
  • Aliya’s Wishes online fruity by Fortune Factory Studios and Games Global

There are many others out there, but I thought I would mention these as these are the ones where I have had a few decent-sized wins.

How to master 96% RTP fruitys

The easiest way to master any online fruity is to keep playing it. When trying a new fruity for the first time, I’ve always found that I will reduce the stake to the minimum amount, which is usually $/€/£0.10 or $/€/£0.20 just to test the waters and find out if I like it or not.

The other quickest way to bring yourself up to scratch is to head straight to the paytable to find out everything you need to know about the fruity you are about to play.

The important information I look for in the paytable is the RTP payout rate, the value of the regular symbols, what the scatter, bonus, and wild symbols look like, and how the in-play bonus features, free spins bonuses, and second screen bonus rounds work when they are triggered.

Once you have mastered one online fruity, learned everything there is to know about it, and figured out when it’s in a good mood (paying) or bad mood (not paying), you can apply those same strategies to all other online fruitys you decide to play.

When playing online fruitys, whether it’s one you have mastered or one you are trying for the first time, the most important thing I mustn’t forget to mention is to gamble responsibly.

The best way to do this is to start by setting a budget and then setting either a deposit limit, spending limit, session time reminder, or win/loss limit.

Engaging with Australian online casinos can be a thrilling and potentially lucrative venture. However, navigating the complexities of online punting transactions is crucial for ensuring a seamless and secure gaming experience. 

This article provides expert advice to enhance online casino play and effectively manage finances. Whether a novice or seasoned player, these insights will contribute to a more enjoyable gaming journey.

Selecting a secure and dependable payment method is paramount when engaging in online punting. Australian players have access to a variety of payment options, including:

Credit cards

  • E-wallets
  • Bank transfers
  • Cryptocurrencies
  • When it comes to selecting the best remittance methods for online betting, there are several options available, each with its own advantages and potential drawbacks. As you explore new reliable online casinos, consider how different payment methods align with your financial management strategy. Here’s a breakdown of the most popular payment methods according to the experts of Stakers:

Visa and MasterCard

  • Popular choices due to convenience and robust security measures.
  • Recent regulations may impose restrictions on gambling trades.

E-wallets (ecoPayz, Neosurf, MuchBetter)

  • Favoured for rapid transaction times and lower fees.
  • Offer additional security by keeping banking information confidential.

Bank Transfers

  • Highly secure option.
  • Can be slower for withdrawals.
  • Reliable choice for larger transactions.

Cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum)

  • Provide anonymity and quick processing times.
  • Increasingly popular among digital punting enthusiasts.

Tip 2: Set a Gambling Budget

Establishing a gambling budget is crucial for managing expenditure. It is easy to be swept up in the excitement of digital wagering, so setting a budget helps prevent overspending. Evaluating disposable income and establishing daily, weekly, or monthly limits that align with financial situations ensures that punting remains an enjoyable activity without negatively impacting financial well-being. Many virtual wagering parlours offer tools to assist in managing spending, such as deposit limits or notifications when a certain threshold is reached. 

Tip 3: Understand Casino Terms and Conditions

Before making a deposit, it is vital to thoroughly review the terms and conditions of the betting establishment. Key aspects to consider include:

  1. Minimum deposit
  2. Withdrawal amounts
  3. Processing times
  4. Any associated fees


For instance, some betting establishments may impose fees for specific payment methods or restrict withdrawal amounts. It is also essential to understand wagering requirements and conditions related to bonuses and promotions. These rules dictate how many times a bonus must be wagered before withdrawing winnings. 

Tip 4: Utilise Responsible Gambling Tools

Reputable web-based wagering parlours offer responsible wagering tools to help players manage their punting behavior. Features such as deposit limits, self-exclusion options, and reality checks promote responsible betting and ensure a controlled and enjoyable experience.

FeatureDescriptionBenefit
Deposit LimitsAllows setting a maximum amount for deposits within a specified period.Helps stay within budget.
Self-Exclusion OptionsEnables a temporary break from gambling if needed.Provides a necessary pause to regain control.
Reality ChecksProvides reminders of how long one has been playing.Aids in effective time management.

Tip 5: Keep Track of Transactions and Monitor Account Activity

Maintaining accurate records of all deposits, withdrawals, and bonus transactions is essential for effective financial management. Using spreadsheets or financial apps to meticulously track all transactions ensures control over spending. Regularly monitoring account activity helps identify any suspicious or unauthorised activity, which should be promptly reported to the casino’s customer service.

Vigilance in monitoring transactions ensures the security and integrity of funds. Reporting anomalies or suspicious transactions immediately to both the betting establishment and the payment provider safeguards accounts and funds from potential fraud.

Conclusion

Adhering to these banking tips enhances the digital casino experience, ensuring it remains safe and enjoyable. Choosing reliable payment methods, setting a budget, understanding terms and conditions, using responsible gambling tools, and keeping meticulous records of transactions allows confident navigation in the world of virtual gambling. Staying vigilant and proactive maximises the online casino journey, always prioritising safe and responsible gambling practices.

The Live Blackjack Journey: From Beginner to Pro

The Live Blackjack Journey: From Beginner to Pro

All the traditional online casino platforms come with a bunch of games. The game section has lots of slot games as well as some table game titles. However, a live casino section is also present with games like live roulette, poker, baccarat, and blackjack.

Live blackjack is a popular rendition of the game. Players from all over the world visit casino sites to enjoy it. You might be new to the title, but you needn’t worry as learning it is a process that takes time. When you focus on the right things, you’ll become a live blackjack pro.

Creating an Account on the Right Website

As a beginner, you need to understand that the right platform will cover all your needs and wants. To find one look for a license at the bottom of the webpage. Then dive into the games section, visit the live games selection, and see if it comes with several blackjack online titles available. The array of bonuses will also help you in your gaming sessions, so consider them too. For a smooth experience look for your favorite payment method in the payment methods sections. Don’t forget about customer support and security before creating an account at the right website.

Using Blackjack Demos as Practice Tools

Live blackjack doesn’t come with a demo version. Instead, you’ll need to find the specific version as a table game. When you do, you can go for the demo variant of the title. The demo version lets you learn the basics without having to worry about the consequences of mistakes. In other words, you can enjoy the game while making mistakes, as you won’t suffer for it. While you’re learning the basics, you’ll also need to know how to become a disciplined player.

Becoming Disciplined

There are two sides to disciplined live blackjack players: budget and attitude management. The former is a skill that will grant you the tools to manage wins and losses. You will split it into pieces per session, and you will look to increase it by dedicating a piece of your winnings. Losses will reduce it, but don’t go playing the game looking to earn your lost money back. The latter is an essential skill that stops you from rash decisions such as chasing losses. With the right attitude, you’ll grow as a live blackjack player.

Going for the Real-Money Experience

The real-money experience will teach you what it feels like to play live blackjack for real. The more you practice, the better you’ll become. By putting your skills to the test, you’ll take it to the next level, and stay ahead of the competition.

To Sum Up

Live blackjack is a game of skill that beginners need to master if they’re to become pros. They need to find the right platform and practice with demo blackjack versions. Becoming disciplined players is another vital aspect of the real-money live blackjack experience. As time passes and they practice regularly, they’ll become live blackjack pros in no time.
