The only way to get a master anything is buy the villagers doing the particular task. So if you want a master builder, keep him building something. Likewise with a master farmer. Keep him/her gathering food.

No... masters come later in the game... keep your guys researching so you can get level 2 in farming quickly. YOu need to get your tech levels up... in the process your people get more experience... The next game you play, forget about cleaning the beach so early.. and concentrate on getting level 2 in farming so your food can sustain your population. Food first, then population increase after.. haha

PS: Since there's nothing to build right now, switch your builder to research; if you've got over 400 berries, switch your farmer to research and keep an eye on food levels, and let him go back to farming to top up your berry supply when needed.... otherwise, research, research, research and buy farming tech

chas... this game isn't going to be finished in a couple of hours, that's the truth. If you have a child, use that child to pick the mushrooms that spring up.. that might help you to survive until you can buy farming tech. Building tech is no use to your villagers if they haven't got enough food to eat! And the golden child is a long way away... you'll have to have level 3 in every tech before that GC appears  Try putting the game on 1/2 speed... that might help your villagers survive (with mushrooms) long enough for you to get farming.

The new villages are doing much better with your help. I was even able to buy the construction and then farming on one of my villages and they survived.
Thanks again for the help and getting me on the right track.

I just found something very interesting. I have 5 little boogers running around my village and it's alot easier to get them all on the mushroom when it's at 1/2 speed. This way I can get my people on researching and not worry about overloading my one lonely farmer dude.

Do we earn tech points for each person gaining experience on the duty they are assigned? Do we earn tech points if they are successful at something they aren't assigned to at the time?
Just curious.

No. Tech points are only gained at the research table, which like all the other tasks, increases personal skill levels

I'm curious as to how that happened. Were you playing in Hard Mode, because I find it's dangerous to leave the game on 2x for too long unattended in that mode. Did you leave more than one farmer selected, and were any doctors selected (preferably two in case one doctor gets sick and needs healing)?

So we don't get tech points for learning to farm, build, heal or breed? Only for research?

I finished my first village. All 16 puzzles, a population of 90 and only 9 deaths.
