thanks Ducky!  :bighug:

Not sure what I expected as Garden Patio Stand; but I don't think it was this either  :lolg:

Although it will come in handy along with the credits!

Yep, yep. King and I ran our daughter's entire Brownie meeting tonight. My co-leader lost her mother-in-law so we stepped in so they could have this time to grieve. It was crazy - 25 ten year old girls, a few of them are, ummm, hard to deal with since they "know everything". You know what I mean? We got home and were so worn out then I saw this post. At first I was like, "Oh no." then I told King... "Nah, I'd rather do 80 Scavenger Hunts than another Brownie meeting right now.". :lolg:

Lol Wendy

Thanks Duck.i!  This is a nice little piece of furnish.  'Patio stand'?  no.  I'd call it a garden worktable/bench or something else.  But what do I know about garden patios?   :lolg:  Still nice to finally have garden furnish.

I am having a thought here.....

Perhaps THIS is how we are going to get hard furnish (something other than flowers, dirt (??) and trees).  Perhaps they will run a few scavenger hunts with pieces of garden furnish   :hmmmm:

There is a hearty cry throughout the kingdom for water!!  Fountains!!

I am also thinking that the contest is not even gonna be till end of May or something (the deadline maybe the end of May).  They need to stop the releases, tell us: "OK, that's it....now go and build".

.it   :coffee:

Thinking the same thing.   Also, VFK is driving me crazy with not releasing all the NEWER items at the end of the older stuff.  They are mixing it all in together! 

Communication is everything.  Would be nice if they would say okay this date is the end of releases.  Better yet, contest info. for sure.  I'm afraid to buy anything yet and build.  Never knowing what else is left to come out!

I asked Vintage at close last night, if she thought we would get rules, and if so, when.

She said there will be rules, but she doesn't know when they will be posted.

(I know, whole lot of no help.  but as some were saying they had already built their gardens.. I hope they conform to the rules.)

I also think I saw some of what is to be new items for gardens?  If so, they are HUGELY TALL to be in a garden, lol.  Looked like yellow and red (guessing now) sunflowers?

Yeah, the mixing stuff up so you don't know what you already bought is ridiculous.  They can't put the new stuff at the end of the old stuff?  Come on...that's just sloppy, and there is no excuse for it.

At this point, I'm not even thinking about or even starting a garden of any sort until they're quite through with backing the dumptruck up every night and dumping loads of stuff on us.  When they're through, I'll begin.  Maybe...

The reason for the 'maybe' is because Flame remembers.  I remember winning prizes in the ride competition last year.  I remember waiting for MONTHS to get those prizes.  And even though alot of people notified them that the prizes weren't awarded, VFK insisted they were.  It took a phone call by a couple of  -cough-'regular'-cough- players to get the prizes awarded...  'Patience'.  Blah.  Some people would say waiting forever isn't having enough 'patience'.  :hmm:

Oh, and thanks for the info, Duck.i.  :)

Did VFK every finish awarding the AI Analysis Developer Choice Awards from a year ago?  That was supposed to be done by computer analysis, using their AI engine.

This, just reminded me of that.    :notme:

Were these the Sunflowers in question??  From the Fairy Dazzle Furni, maybe??  Just wondering if it was these sunflowers, or (yikes!)... more flowers for gardens?

There's no way to be sure of that.  We were shown a preliminary list...then nothing.  So we have no final list of who got the bogus...I mean AI award to cross-reference.  I think the people on the preliminary all received their awards.  Not sure that the program ever finished picking all the winners.  Blech. That was bogus, anyways.  The computer couldn't even award prizes properly.  That doesn't give me confidence it could choose a winner at all.  Not to mention we were never told the criteria that the computer used to pick the winners.  Can you say:  bogus?  :td:

Yes!  Those are what came out last night.  Here I was hoping we were getting a sneak preview of something coming out later today.  Ah well.
