Geezer for Guvnor...

Oh boy... Government is coming to the Frontier!

Yes, just when you thought life was easy, here comes the lawmakers wanting to make our little town part of the establishment...

So, what do we need? We need a grey haired old man who's adept at rambling on for hours, sleeping with his eyes open and managing not to achieve anything.

Oi, Jack! We've got the perfect job for you... except there's another guy on the horizon, and this one looks like trouble...

Oh look, it's popup time!


That will kick off a five mission thread, one wrapper and, of course a Monday mission (all details HERE) and, depending on which you'd prefer, a four step build, or four one step builds... (all details HERE).

That's because we have five items to place during these missions, although they can be stored away when not being used. four are built...


...and one is placed and used for a special reason.


So, what's that special reason? Well, we're going to have another Community Collection for up to 75 Horseshoes!


So, what are we collecting? Well, you'll be delighted to hear there's lots of ways to get the Jack's Votes and Pro-Jack Petitions (which count as 5 votes).


Jack's Votes come from Healing Stuffed Ballot Boxes and Nasty Campaign Posters (both coin buys) along with Gerrymanders and Fillibusters (both drops).

Pro-Jack Petitions come from Happy Jacks (coin crop that takes a Vote to "water"), Political Animals (come from Gerrymanders and Fillibusters when healed), Security Oxen (mission reward) and Campaign Signs (Collection reward).



So... fair to say we're not going to be short of points...

There's also another special thing coming tonight and that is the return of... BADGES! Yes folks, three brand new badges for us to work at (or not) as we see fit!


The first covers amounts of donations, the second will be harvesting Happy Jacks and the final one will be tending Security Oxen.

So, what other items are we going to see?

Well, one new free gift crop, the Red, White and Blueberries...


...a new boost, the single Crop Ready...


...a new rideable, the Wagon One...


...and a new collection that gives a massive parcel of goodies on trade in.


So, time to get our voting trousers on and make this Jack's best campaign ever!
