Just bolts. How are you doing, need anything?
Does anyone else get nothing but low XP truck orders? I end up trashing all of them over and over. I refuse to send off jam and feta pies for 161 XP!:thumbsdown:
Sorry for late response.. Ugh, the bolt drought.. I wish I could help, just upgraded last night, I'm sorry.
As for truck orders, I don't touch any truck order under 500xp.. automatically ripped off the board unless it's asking basic crops (wheat, corn, carrots, sugarcane, soybeans, pumpkins, potatoes, strawberries - anything easy to buy/quick to grow), or other items that are easy to find in the paper at any time - sweaters, cupcakes, chili popcorn, eggs, wool and so forth.
I avoid jam orders at all cost unless they're asking one or two (if two, must be different flavours for me) as part of, at the very least, a 1200+ xp order.. and only then if I have plenty in stock (20+ of each flavour - I'm jam obsessed). I don't generally hire Tom, so it takes too long to replenish the stock all for the sake of those few points, which actually can be easily accumulated by growing fields and fields of wheat and selling it quickly, not to mention the materials you gain from that too.
It really depends how much time you have to play.
Just as an example:
1 x wheat = 1xp.. so, I'd have to grow my fields with wheat (90 fields) nonstop 13 times @ 2 mins per cycle (26 mins) to make 1200+ xp . That is less time than it takes to wait for a new order to appear on the board, and certainly less time than it takes you to bake a cake/pie (and not forgetting time to produce whatever ingredients you needed for it) or produce a single jam - and some of the candies in the later, much higher xp orders, take a whole day to produce just one :O
Just a different way to look at things..
