Just a quick update on the promo, particularly on the Terms and Conditions (meaning, how you can get paid):
1. You and the person you invited both have to be in the eligible countries (India, Thailand, Malaysia, Korea, Vietnam, Philippines, Indonesia or Singapore) to be paid or to get credit for your invites. The Terms and Conditions state:
"If you reside outside of the Eligible Countries, you may be permitted to download the PayPal WishList; however, you will not be eligible to participate in this Promotion. Additionally, you will not be entitled to receive an additional US$1 or cash back for those PayPal WishLists created by a person(s) outside of the eligible countries, even if the sum stating ‘you’ve earned’ on your Facebook page may indicate otherwise."
2. The friend you invited must create a wishlist AND a Paypal account (or have one already) for you to be eligible for the prize. Again, from the Terms and Conditions:
"You will be entitled to $1 USD for your own PayPal WishList, plus an additional $1 USD per friend who uses your invitation to create his or her own PayPal WishList, provided your friend has a PayPal account.
3. If two friends invited the same person, the one who gets the prize is the invite where the invite actually created a wishlist. So, if a friend of yours accepted the invite, your FB account will show $1 earned, but it's not yet yours unless she/he created a wishlist via your invite.
Well, that's it for now. Hopefully these guidelines will help you get "sure" additions to your paypal wishlist prize.
Everybody could use some extra cash, whether it's Christmas time or not. And even though you won't be able to enjoy the cash that you can get from Paypal's promo until after the Christmas season, it's still spending money of up to $100. With hardly any additional effort. Here's the mechanics:
This is another Facebook game similar to other farm-tending games like Farmville, Farmtown and Country Story. I just thought of checking it out after seeing a friend's post about it. The very first thing that came to mind was that it looks and feels a lot like Ranch Rush of Yahoo!, although there isn't any character that you order around to do jobs. Games like these are already so common in Facebook that the developers didn't even bother setting up a tutorial. Speaking of developers, I am still checking out who they are, because they don't seem like from Playfish or Zynga.
Some of the features of the game:
1. No more crops going bad if not harvested. I thought I won't be playing the game for long since the first crop you can plant, Clover, matures in four hours. Which is quite fast for a casual player that only gets to check Facebook once or twice in a day, even if it goes bad at the same rate that it ripens. But turns out it doesn't spoil, even after I visited the game several days later.
2. There are a couple of machines that you can use to process crops you harvest. For starters, you get to use a cheese machine to process milk that you get from feeding clover to cows. Then there's the ketchup machine, the flour mill, and a chicken coop. They just introduced rabbits, but I don't exactly know yet what they are supposed to produce.
3. Crops, animals, and machines can actually be gifted to you by friends who already reached a certain level to be qualified to gift them. You will also need a certain number of friends to become your neighbors for you to be able to expand your ranch (or you can shell out some real cash for it).
The game do require that you spend a considerable amount of time feeding animals, planting or processing harvests. More so than you would playing, say, Cafe World. But I guess that's the game design and it's fairly reasonable.
That's it for now. I am pretty new in the game, but I will try to update on this as I go along.
