Free Darts, As an apology for breaking the quests last night?
Nice on Zynga's part, this is some farmers 2nd free dart this week, Others will still not get one, because well I dont know why.
Oh snap, another New Zynga Sponsered Early Access Contest
Those who have been around for well over 3 months, remember there was a Contest for "early lighthouse cove access" when in reality was just some cash to purchase the Boat Ticket. So the Zynga forums have once again set up a contest for early access to the winter wonderland! Which likely will be some cash for 50 folks to buy the ticket.
They want you to caption this image:

Good luck and let us know if you win, I think on the LHC Contest we had like 4 or 5 Readers that won, and they only gave out like 10 passes for that one I think!
Plush Give away!
So we really do not know exactly how many we are giving away, BUT the way to enter is simple, Comment on this post, Share this post, and your comment (on this post, aka on fvnation.com, not the facebook fan page) should be Which of the 10 In Game Plush Animals you think is the most cute. Its very likely at least 5 to 10 are going to be gave away. And Comments will be Randomly drawn to see who wins. Of course this will be open to most all of the world. I do not know yet if the Code can be redeemed from Non-US Countries though. Hopefully more will be known soon.
Do not buy The Flannel Cow, Banjo Duck, etc from the market
And just like with recent things that are free, they have decided to try and get the extra gravy by putting them in the market for cash, and those not paying attention may end up buying stuff that's free, so here is this heads up. This was in another post, but I think this deserved its own post. All this stuff is in the Thanksgiving Bonfire: http://www.fvnation.com/2011/11/thanksgiving-harvest-bonfire-is-rolling-out-very-slowly/
Thanksgiving Harvest Bonfire is Rolling Out VERY SLOWLY
Well on a day where we have seen a Quest come out, and then go away, another slow roll out seems almost like not a shock.
But it appears the Harvest bonfire aka Thanksgiving Basket is on the way out.
In case you are wondering why you STILL don’t have the new Cove quest!
So, late last night I got my Lighthouse Cove quest. I’m very impatient, so I planted and flew my bi-plane and finished quest one. Then I harvested a little bit of quest two, re-planted, and flew the plane again so that the corn would be ready mid-day for me and I would have the quest on a convenient schedule. When I went to harvest the second field of crops, I discovered that the icon was missing. Here is what Zynga has to say:
There were some issues with the Quest when it was released and the Studio removed it to repair these issues before the release it again.
I was also told that if you started your quest, you WILL have to start over.
SO RE-PLANT YOUR POTATOES!!!
Again, can’t be 100% sure how accurate this is, but just passing on the info that I was told from Zynga Customer Support.
Zynga Important Player
Some folks have been getting invited into this "secret society" of ZIP Zynga Important Players lately! Seems to mean Beta Testing, free goodies, and who knows what else. We'll keep you posted when we get more details of what being a ZIP means.

Plus It sounds like you can shove the Duck in the Aviary or the Duckpond
Sheep in to the Sheep Pen or the Livestock Building
Turkey in the Aviary (maybe the turkey Roost, I am not 100%)
The Unreleased Penguin Escapade!
Well isnt this just all sorts of adorable.
It sure looks We are gonna see a quest line tied into this new Penguin Doings. I'm digging it. Penguins need to escape!
I thought this was pretty cute, its a crate of Penguins, and then a little sign saying NO PENGUINS! And a scary red light, they have been caught!
Chapter 9 Lighthouse Cove, Its rolling out! and then stopped
Updated: it appears they put the brakes on the slow roll for now, more as we know.
Yep, the new quest started rolling out about 40 minutes ago or so, so hopefully you got your Kennebec Potatoes planted, (if you are interested in my walk through that's sometime on Tuesday)
