Please share your mystery task

Oh, Rivertown.....can you share with us what you said to yourself when your second goat milk MT opened?
Nah, nevermind, we can probably figure out your exact words.
What rotten luck. But at least you have goats.

I got incredibly lucky all the way through:

1) Mining: 99 ores
2) Help: 30
3) Corn: 620
4) Townies: any 20
5) Boats: just 3
6) Trucks: only 21
7) Boats: 3 again
8) Townies: Three lots of five specific ones
9) Help: 28

And I'm done. Been very easy.
Sadly, some of my neighbours have not been so lucky and ended up with wool and other long term ones.
Also 20 blue hats which, as we know, are pretty tight time wise to get done but she'll make it.
Of course, we've also had others that have sprung up which have proved very difficult to do because they disrupt your schedule e.g. one of us was due to go out a few hrs later and ended up getting a corn one but didn't have enough free land spots to do in the time she had.
I'm sure there are plenty of other similar incidents out there that have annoyed people too.

Gasp---what? Someone was contemplating going out during Derby?
Levity aside, that's the thing about the MT board. After finishing a task we don't know if we should select another or not.
Stupidly, I picked one before bed last night. I was already in bed, ready to get much needed sleep. Had most of my many fields planted with strawberries (just in case), decided to select my next task. Yup, 320 sugar cane. So, I was up for several hours. My dog was snoring and dreaming, likely chasing squirrels. I don't know how I was able to stay awake and finish in the allotted time. I was desperately concerned if I fell asleep would I wake in time to produce a virtual crop.....ahh, is this what my life has become?

With the blue hats, she's setting her alarm to wake up and reload the machine. Poor Barb!

[Gertie777]

Dean, can she use a diamond or two to expedite, rather than getting up in night? That's bad, poor gal.

I used an emoji or two that showed my feelings but the forum ones don’t have them, lol

Anyway I keep being told it is only a game and not to stress, me stress?

What does 3 late nights/mornings do to a person, just makes them do silly things

1st night/morning was to catch up with my hoodies, 2nd and 3rd, to do an early morning milking.

Who knows what the next two tasks will see me doing but fingers crossed they will be nice ones

On a on a positive note, the required number of individual townies required is decreasing

I’m guessing your strawberries weren’t that far from being done, or you figured out how many fields you would speed up to still do the sugarcane task. At least the task was finished. Many players wouldn’t have the luxury of losing a night’s sleep.

My hoodmate had 6 of her 10 mystery tasks involve serving town people, 91 town people to be exact. Two of those tasks were for specific town people, the rest were any. Good Luck with your town.

Thanks - Challenging when we are a NH of 4

However, i am finding this mystery derby quite fun.
