hence why people start falling off the farming games at the upper levels and let them sit for long periods of time.

Hmmm... After reading this - I started to contimplate why I started to play Farmville and all of those other games in the first place. A year ago - the company I work for was going through some serious changes. And those changes were making work stressful and ugly at best... I started playing them to clear my head of the nasty stuff going on not only at work - but in the world as a whole.

I did not decide to master every level so I could dominate a game - but I'm not competetive by nature anyways. I built my own pretty little farms so that I could have something nice to look at at the end of the day.

I do not want to reach level 70 - heck, I'm having a hard time getting level 38 : ) I just like playing because its a private escape into a pretty little place that the world just doesn't seem to be as of lately.

Hope you can conquer Farmville - but what then? Are you going to Cafe World to see if you can become top chef?

I'll get off my bale of hay and go back to monogramming...

Then....? Then, I conquer the world! MUHAHaHahahaha!!!!

Oh, just kidding. =) The main reason I started playing was just because I had read so much about the game and more people were virtually farming than actually farmed in real life, and I was curious what had sucked so many people in. I like to stay on top of what's happening on the Internet as a whole.

Once I finish, I plan to quit. It's fun for awhile, but eventually it gets old and I have better things to do....

In other news, anybody else see this FarmVille commercial? It's hilarious! My favorite part is when it says, "And here's a taste of the action...." Then shows the mouse cursor scrolling over the screen harvesting crops. Hilarious, I tell you! =)

I can appreciate humor like that a lot more now that I've played the game a bit. ;o)

I actually saw an honest-to-goodness Billboard along Highway 101 advertising FarmVille! Really, how cost-effective can that be, especially for a "free" game?

Wow--I wish you got a picture that! =) As I recall, the folks who make the game live and work in the Silicone Valley there somewhere. Maybe it was just a way for them to show off their success more than it was intended as a "cost-effective" form of advertising? It just gave them giggles to see it while driving by? =)

Silicone is the stuff they make breast implants out of.

Silicon is the stuff that is used in computer chips.

Slight difference. ;)

Especially if you want to keep abreast of the latest technology.
