The Gong just took all my food!!!! I have over 70 people and the Gong took all my food!!! I had more than 600,000 or 700,000 units of food and they are all gone!!! I can't believe it. I don't know if I will ever be able to regain enough food for my tribe to survive.
What other effects can the gong have? I especially want to know about other possible negative effects it can have.

If you have 70 people and you put all the able-bodied ones to fish and farm, you should build back up enough food easily. I'll message you about the other effects so as not to spoil this thread

Thanks I appreciate it. I figured that there could be negative effects from the Gong and that some food could be lost, but I didn't think it would take everything from me. It totally caught me off guard.

This happened to me and i lost 1 million food!!!

That sucks!! I hope that doesn't happen to me. Now that my food source is starting to get back up there I am struggling to bring my population back up.

get on your nerves if this happens. I had a ilsand event that made me loose all my 500,000 food except for 1000 of them. Then i got up to just over 1 million food and that's when the gong effected made me loose it all!!!!

See Do you ring the gong every day?
I was worried at first, but I put all my villagers on Farming and got it back rather quickly.

I just left my "normal" farmers on their job and closed the game down. Came back on a few minites after and they have 10000+ food already

Gong struck someone dead! The villager that struck it became instant skeleton. "Gong takes life".

Dang!!! The gong is useless for that!!
