Harvest question for Ask Nothing in Return

If we harvest barnacles or jellies or chickens (things where you can only harvest; you can't benefit them), are our other actions on that street counted or not counted?

  • Okay -- it looks like you can go for jellies and barnacles. Still not sure about the chickens. :) Buh-kaw!

  • Can't go for chiggens - read the feat description, it's mentioned explicitly that you should leave squeezing behind

  • Do actions only count in Ur? Or on home streets, too?

  • And... if you accidentally (or intentionally!) hit harvest (etc), does it only negate the petting (etc) for that one tree, or for everything you do on that street?

  • Everything on the street up until that point. But the count re-starts, after.

  • Waaaah. I just was so good not harvesting -- petted, watered, petted, massaged and the *last tree*... HARVEST! Argh!

  • Dear god, there are people going to stay up all night and beat on the resource routes and the tightly tethered pigs. The leaderboard upper echelon will probably reach over 50K for some people by close tomorrow, I'm giving up now as the obsesssive level of effort required is slightly (only slightly) beyond my sense of personal motivation.

  • Ditto that.

  • I gave up on the third time I nibbled a piggy because the damn flash interface sometimes doubles key-strokes, including the Enter key.

    Grrrr!!!!

  • Sorry for the silly question, but does that mean you don't lose contribution points from Street A if you harvest and then do all the required actions at Street B? I would just avoid harvesting but I'm a bit low on resources and I'm out of currants too.

  • Whenever you harvest, your contribution for that street resets to 0. If you harvest first, your score is 0 anyways, so it's okay if it's reset to 0. But then when you want to start gaining points, you can do the other actions and avoid harvesting in the same street.

    Your points on Street B won't be affected by what you do on Street A. But with what's described, you just need to do all your harvesting first, then you can still gain points on the same street with petting and watering.

  • Thanks for the confirmation! Just one more question though since I'm doing stuff on my home street:

    If I do things, leave, come back and then start harvesting would it affect the points I had previously or would it not as the previous points have been tallied?

  • It won't affect your previous tallied points. Once your points are tallied you can't lose them. So moving to a tower or back on a home street is like saving your progress in a Pokemon game periodically.

  • Awesome, thank you so much for helping to resolve my doubts!

  • ...am I the only one to find this the most tediously grinding and mindlessly clicking feat yet? It just bored the hell out of me after a few minutes. It somehow came across even worse than the "mine sparkly" one...I'm beginning to really wish for more quality and less quantity in this.

  • Seeing how many points have been achieved and the time left, I'm beginning to suspect it may not be finished in time - what happens then?

  • they delete the game

  • Zira: Nothing. The first two goals have already been reached, this would just be a super-mega-whatsit extra thing....the feat was already won in the first 30 minutes yesterday, I think...

  • Oh, right, I was thinking it had to be finished! Would have been a pity to lose out after having concluded the first 2 parts :)

  • Only the first goal matters. Thank heavens.  I kept messing up and then got bored.
