Yes, I've also seen a male or female "breeder" go to the "alpha" female or male on the list. And it's not just for "embracing" it is for any of the actions that require a villager to be "waiting for someone." It was really frustrating in the game I had where the oldest male was also a runner. He kept getting interrupted from his tasks.

Another "cheat" I figured out (from comments on this board) is getting multiple mushrooms for each one discovered:

When I see a mushroom I pause the game (sometimes hitting the drum first so they are all "going to the school"--that makes it easier to distinguish the older kids from adults, or just maybe get the kids closer to a mushroom.)

Then I'll find as many kids as I can picking each one up and placing him/her on the mushroom. When the action stops saying "picking a mushroom" then the original disappeared from the board, but the kids who have already picked one still has his/hers.

I'll unpause the game and watch the crowds of kids all bring their mushroom to the food bin. Sometimes they get confused on the way and will stop and "drop" it, but most make it.

I'll get 8 food points for each kid that does, and it's even better when it is an orange mushroom!!!

This also really distorts my mushroom picking stats!



That is really cool about the mushrooms! I just tried it and it worked. The most I can ever seem to get is 5 at a time. I also noticed that even though the game is paused the mushrooms (or turkey or pumpkin LoL) still comes and goes as if the game is playing. I have seen it disappear off the screen and reappear somewhere else during the pause. I was wondering if anyone knows any mushroom secrets such as how much time between them or does anything influence the appearance or quantity of mushrooms? Also, I know the red mushrooms are more valuable but I have only seen maybe 5 in the last several months so is there something I can do to increase red mushrooms in my games?

Does anybody know any mushroom secrets? I would be most grateful for any info. Thanks!
