Ok - so this is an honest account of the recent unfoldings of my village!!

I have had a really stable village going for over a month or two now, just check in on them and play around - ring the gong and what have you. Well, I logged into my village last night and saw/heard the "event" sound and watched the orange box (of doom) pop up. A bird caused my village to become ill and I lost HALF my village even after I made the healing stew! Then I was (stupid me, I know better) Fiddling around with my time/date and zapped my village forward... then backward.... THEN forward again and lost about 10 more. All the kids are gone, all the elders are gone and now I have like (because I made as many babies as I could) about 56 people left out of 105/107! *waaah* To top that all off, I recently got the "flood" and my food resources were washed away. *uuuugh* I have angered the GONG GOD! >_<
