Post Your Hay Day “Facepalm” moments

[WussyPuss]

Come on all... spill it!

we all have done it, from completing a task before taking it to accidental purchases. What have you done that you wish you could undo or what extremes have you gone to to farm/finish tasks?

Early on, when the derby first started I was working on a bacon task. Woke up the next morning with about 45 minuted to finish this well disliked task. Lo and behold, our internet is down.

Now what?!? Not enough time to stay on hold with the provider to troubleshoot the problem. And the young ‘un still needs breakfast.

I’ve got this covered . . . . I get the kid in the car, iPad in hand as well and drive to the nearest McD’s. FREE WiFi, and breakfast! And the bacon was collected with minutes to spare!

So well planned and executed, Momscar .


My moment:
I fed the pigs right before new Valley day started, with feeding pig as a sun task.

Very early in my playing days, I was afraid to tap the balloon from Tom. I thought it would cost diamonds. We still didn’t have a confirmation button at the time. Oh I wonder how many stakes and deeds I didn’t get. I was still trying to get vouchers for a horse and open my land. My bad.

In a similar way to Besta, in the early days I didn't tap on any of the red boxes that I found on other farms. I thought that I would be taking a gift that belonged to the person whose farm I was visiting. I wonder how many goodies I missed over the months I did that.

Back when a boat task required six boats be completed (instead of four), I filled the first one, then called three more and filled those before I realized that I hadn't started the task yet! So I filled 10 boats back to back! I felt really bad because some in-game friends from Germany were helping me fill all of these crates to help me win the gold

Haha me too! *blushing*
I even ASKED a real life friend what was in HIS toolbox (on his farm). His look: priceless!

I didn’t want to be ‘greedy’ by buying everything in Greg’s stand everyday. I though I would leave some crates for others. 😂 🤦🏼

Since the update of 18 December 2017 the Roadside Shop ads are deselected by default.
Before that, the green checkmark was present by default. It took me some months to find out I could remove the checkmark, resulting in many unwanted ads in the Daily Dirt!

I hadn't really searched tips and tricks of the game, until I noticed other people had found all kids of fish species I had yet to catch. So finally on level 66, I researched the fishing hole. How many lures, especially gold and purple, did I waste on large and medium circles, and why didn't I fish more during the fishing events?!??! 🤦

Next question... when will there be another one so I can get the rare species?
