Below are some general guides and information to help complete derby tasks in a more efficeint way regardless of your farm level. Use the nav above to jump to an area.

The following things can be really useful to do prior to derby start. All very simple even for those of lower levels.

Make sure there are no nets down in the fishing area and you have plenty of lures made and ideally making more to stack the lure machine

Make sure you have no long crops planted

Make sure your truck board is ready with grean ticks on all and ideally making sure they are easy to complete

Make sure all of your animals are fed and ready to collect

Make sure you have enough animal feed made for at least one full round of feeding all animals

Even if not stacked for anything, make sure your town if full and all visitors are served and ready to collect

Just to note with town, it's always best that your ready visitors are not single serve. That way they will be there for a fellow neighbour to come and collect

As a task, feeding animals is really simple and a good task to take, even for those of lower levels. Below is best practice for a feeding task and a guide as to the minimum time to complete a feed task depending on your farm level.

Essentials All your animals are fed and ready collect. You have enough feed made for 1 round of collect and feed of all animals even if you don't have all of them yet. One more really good thing to have is at least 4 slots in both of the feed mills.

Tip for doing it quickly You take the task and then go round and collect and feed all of the animals you have. Then (assuming you have at least 4 spots in each mill) start to make 6 x chicken feed and 2 x cow feed, put evenly is key too, so 3 x chicken and 1 x cow in each mill. As chickens take 20 minutes between feeds there is enough to make all the chicken feed plus the cow feed. Keep doing the same and at evey 3rd feed of chickens you can also do all of your cows too because they take an hour. Then basically keep going as above until the task is completed.

The task is feed 195 animals

So based upon level the task time will vary slightly, these are absolute minimum times to complete the task.





As fishing is such a regular derby task I thought I would give a simple guide as to how long the task will take you to complete, really important for those that don't have all of the spots open yet.

Below is a map of the fishing area and the time each spot takes to reset after a fish is caught.

The table on the right gives all of the fishing spots listed in the most logical order in which they would be opened (based upon smallest amount of EM's)and the amount of items required to open the spot. The last column in the table will will show you how long the task will take you, a few assumptions are made for this. It based upon an average of 34 fish to complete a 110lb task, all the available spots can be fished straight away and no breaks in between, unlikely so these are absolute minimum times.

The other really important thing this will tell you is that you MUST have at least 34 lures ready but would advise 40 and ideally the lure machine would be stacked to its maximum.

For some who are in the champions league you may wonder how leaderboard points work, well here you are, a short explanation and example.

The leader board points are calculated based upon the 4 following areas:

The total team score vs how many are opted in

The total amount of trashed tasks vs how many are opted in

Final derby position

How many people are opted in

Example:

Opted in - 28

Trashed - 123

Score - 89600 (320x10x28)

Place - 3

Total score/opt in - 3200 (89600/28)

Total trashed/opt in - 4.39 (123/28)

Place points - 10 (from table below)

Opt in points - 91 (from table below)

Points 3296.61 = 3200+10+91-4.39

The final points shown on the leader board are a sum of the last 4 rolling weeks

Stacking machines with all items for a derby task can greatly speed up your derby, the hardest thing is know exactly what machines to stack and with what. I will get on to that elsewhere. For those who have never done stacking it can be quite difficult and mistakes are easily made. Below is a short explanation of how to stack machines.

As an example, I have filled the Coffee Kiosk with as many hot chocolate as I can and they are all ready for collection. At this point I need to make sure I have the ingredients in my barn and the barn is full

With my barn full I add 1 hot chocolate, this will take 3 items from my barn, so I do not want to add another to make as I will collect and item

Now I need to fill my barn, the easiest way is to collect eggs. So I collect 3 eggs, fill my barn and I can then add another hot choclate without collecting any

Important things to remember,

Always go back and fill your barn if anything comes from there to make a product

Regardless of how many items you have made you will only ever be able to see 9 at the front of the machine so keep a note

If you want to practice then stack items such as apple juice because they don't take anything from your barn. The short video below shows how it's done.


For stacking my personal preference is baskets and then make the extra to cover a single production task with the basket type being based on statistical data from many weeks of derbies.
For example, the Spa task which comprises of Goat Cheese x 9, Olive oil x 9 & Strawberry candles x 6. So I would also make all of those items up to be single production tasks too, especially Strawberry Candles as that is a popular task.



Firsty a small bit about the importance of town, on average town related tasks make up near 30% of a total derby task type and secondly town is so much better to do than boats for the following reasons,

Boats take a huge amount of your own and fellow neighbours resourses

Boats only give you some coins and XP

Town will give you some coins, XP & EM's or another gift on fully serving a visitor

So for the above reasons doing boats over town make no sense at all.

Stacking the town can be very simple, just choose visitor type or building type or a combination of visitor and building and also think about the basket Townies tasks too. The table below gives an idea of what can be done with combinations to cover as many tasks as possible and will prep you for 8 of the following tasks,

Fully serve 23 town visitors

Fully serve 9 Dancers

Fully serve 9 Salesman

Fully serve 9 Grand Masters

Serve 12 visitors in the Bed & Breakfast

Serve 16 visitors in the Diner

It also covers both of the basket Townies tasks

This is based on a fully upgraded town but can be adjusted depending on your town level
These are also good ones to choose as Bed & Breakfast, Grand Master & Salesman are generally the most regular each derby

Below is a full list of all machine by level with the cost of each machine. As you would expect, always plan to have the minumum amount of coins for the machine at level up because playing catch up is really difficult. This has been made worse with the introduction of Farm Pass where if done you generally level up faster.

Enter your farm level and it will show all the next machines you need.
