Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:39 pm
You can also send fuel via the free gifts page. And if you log out and then back into Farmville, you can send fuel again and again and again…..

It is only filling up your tank one fifth of the way each time you use a tank from your gift box. =(
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:40 pm
It’s Great!!!
You get one fuel tank per day (for 5 consecutive days)
You can share it with your friends
And You can also gift it!!
So that’s a lot of free fuel guys!!!
I don’t know which link I can post so you can gift to me, so can someone please tell me how?? and I’ll give one too
Thank you and Enjoy

Just got mine too, was concerned when “sharing” that it was going to take some of mine away, would have liked a bit more explanation
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:42 pm
I think its stupid
I thought it was going to be an “all you can use” free fuel week… Grrrr.. Stupid, stupid, stupid!
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:42 pm
Like Sarah said, apparently the fuel that you can get from the FB feed are only 1/5 a tank of gas.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:44 pm
1/5 of a tank is not very much- even if you snag a bunch up in the newsfeeds…I think we all got spoiled with the amount of fuel in our presents!
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:45 pm
Blah! only 1 freakin fuel!! I was hoping for a 1 time deal of 20 or more fuels so that i could dump that large piece of crap 2010 ball!!
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:48 pm
Um….I dont really get it. Doesnt feel very free to me.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:48 pm
Its not an easy taks to sit on FB home and click on all feeds to get 1/5 of feul….. thats not impressive at all…. and they call it feul week
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:50 pm
For those thinking that it is 1/5 tank of gas, it fills up over time… if you hover over the fuel bar, it says “more in so many minutes.”
I think it’s cool, just wish there was more of it.. .like more than just one thing of fuel, 5 or 10 would be nice lol.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:50 pm
Seems like you can get more fuel from a golden egg.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:51 pm
I thought we were going to be able to use any amount of fuel we wanted for free. Not get it gifted and adopt it and such.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:52 pm
here is my link, pls send me fuel:)

I think it is quite good but u have to have lots friends:) to play good this game u have to have lots friends
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:55 pm
Meh.. I have all the fuel I need left over from opening presents cluttering up my giftbox.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:56 pm
Also, it seems that you are only allowed to click on a friends fuel post once.. if you click on it again,, it will say you have already received fuel.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:57 pm
I meant..if you click on another one that a friend has posted, it will say that you already received fuel
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 1:58 pm
Stupid.
1/5 th of a tank? Thats what 30 plots? Should of made it unlimited. Way to make a big hype about a measly 1 gallon a day.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:02 pm
I only was able to get 3 of 1/5 fuel tanks from my friends that shared it. and then it said “Sorry partner but you’ve already collected some fuel! Come back next time!” I don’t know how much I’ll have to wait hehe but it would’ve been nicer if they would’ve give us at least 1/2 of a tank
but I’m still happy with all i got in the x-mas tree gifts.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:04 pm
thanks to those who sent me fuel:) i still dont get how much i can have it, but i will figure it our tomorrow soon when i need to harvest my seeds
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:05 pm
I think it’s lame. Just like ONE free level-up on New Year’s was lame. This pisses me off, and Zynga owes all of us who bought farm cash a lot better than this.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:08 pm
Good concept…Terrible job only giving us 1/5 of a tank to gift and adopt… Im really about to quit playing if the next expansion does not come out in a few days, and there are not more expansions shortly there after. Im fairly far in the game and its frustrating with no room for all my buildings and trying to make it look like a decent farm. Zynga needs to step it up. Its getting very boring.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:09 pm
1/5 it’s giftable, so basically the fuel it’s unlimited just for this “free fuel week”.
The system works due to the fact it’s more or less usless to keep free fuel in gift box and you’ll have enough each time you’ll have to harvest/plow/soon.
More, each time you refresh farmville, you can share a 1/5 of fuel refill and each 1/5 can be taken by 3 neighboars.
I wondered about thousand of gallons in my gift box to use when new ribbons will be released but Zynga worked about avoid this.
By the way, who tryed to use a 1/5 when your bar it’s full? Do you receive an extra tank or not?
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:13 pm
For every 5 (1/5ths) you recieve a tank if u have a tank already it will go up a bit when u add a 1/5th … I had 83 gallons & I added 8 1/5ths & now i have 84 & about a half – also u can only collect from each neighbor ONCE a day no matter how many times they post free fuel
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:14 pm
i thought it was going to be unlimited :/ so much for the excitement
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:15 pm
1/5 = 1 tank of fuel; coming back tomorrow will give you 2/5=2 tanks of fuel and so on and so forth. Good promotion.
Cheers!
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:15 pm
Folks, You aren’t getting 1/5 of a tank! You are getting one of the 5 tanks for the week that they are giving you!
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:16 pm
havent gotten to this, but it does seem the hype doesn’t cover the reality…then again…free is free, even tho you have to “work” to get it. Way to screw it up Zynga.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:16 pm
guys!
accept 1 gift of this. than wait farmville to fill that tank.
after accept another one..
i mean ex: you have 20 fuels.
accept 1 of 1/5 gift. it would make you 20 and 1/5.
than wait it to fill 21. than accept another one:)
if you like that add me:) erenyilmaz85@hotmail.com
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:19 pm
That’s a great idea, Eren. I hadn’t thought of it! Excellent thought. I am really excited about this and I hope I get lots of great gifts. Please friends . . . send me fuel!
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:19 pm
Some people are very stupid around here.
It is not enough that they are giving out something for free, but you also do not want to think about the simple fact, that if you have 0 fuel and put 1/5 of a tank, you get 1 fuel, which then fills up only by the passage of time to a full tank.
Even if it was fuel for 1 piece it would be enough to start a new tank!
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:22 pm
I accept generous people that send fuel!

Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:23 pm
I used a 1/5 refill with the bar nearly full and it did give me an extra tank. It seems this is the only useful thing to do with these, use them to save up fuel, which is totally the opposite of what I thought this week would be. I thought for once I’d be able to splurge and harvest-plow-seed to my heart’s content with the machines, but no dice.
pretty lame in my book.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:23 pm
I think this should be renamed Free FAIL Week. They went out of their way to make this an overly complicated and highly limited click fest that is not at all the impression that the phrase “Free Fuel Week” gave.
Getting so tired of this game. Maybe it’s time to spend more effort on another one.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:26 pm
You do receive an extra tank. I can’t believe I’m spending more time trying to get the fuel than actually at the farm… Gotta love free stuff, but this is a pain!!
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:33 pm
ok, let me sum the “free fuel week”
each gallon contain 1/5 of the tank (30 plots)
you can receive / send it as a gift
if your bar is full, it will give you extra tank (2 become to 3, 5 become to 6 etc.) dont know if its also work if you only have 1 tank.
you can collect it from the farmville feed if your friend share it, but, you cant collect more than once. maybe you will be able to collect more after few hours.
I think its nice, lets say you collect and be gifted 60 fuel, its like 12 tanks a day.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:34 pm
I think the structure and scope of the program is great! Being able to post gifts in your feed and also gift it as a daily gift to friends you select is wonderful! 1/5 gallon adds up over the week. It does reward those who have a lot of neighbors but much of the Farm programs hinge on the network you develop. And I like that people cant get consecutive fuel awards from the same person again and again. I don’t know how long that “block” lasts (minutes, hours, days) but it helps to spread the wealth around a little more.
Thanks to the Farmville folks. If only you would let me have a dog now…………
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:35 pm
I’ve been playing around with this free fuel and would like some clarification if somebody knows…
Can you not receive a 1/5 tank from the same person twice?? That part’s not cool.
I’ve gotten one from one person and then one from another. First person posted again and it said I’d already received fuel.
Second, I had a full tank with the first one. It bumped my number of tanks up by one and it was 1/5 full. I haven’t tried on an almost full tank yet.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:36 pm
Free fuel is stupid!!!
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:37 pm
Hi
HERE THE TRICK! (I PROPOSE TO PUBLISH IT)
the best way to use the free fuel week, also in the future is to use the 1/5 fuel refill , wait 3 hours an you got a full fuel tank, use the other 1/5 you got by friends and try to accumulate much more fuel you can!!
Giorgio
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:39 pm
Just another wall posting scam from Zynga. Sorry but free fuel week should have been unlimited fuel…
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:39 pm
Give me fuel and I’ll give you fuel

I must be really stupid, I just don’t get it.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:51 pm
Using the 1/5 Fuel in my gift box doesn’t change my level. Will it only fill a partial tank? How does this work? I’ve got 156 fuel refils and could care less about 1/5 of a tank.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:52 pm
if you want, here is my gift link to send me fuel…..tks
i already sent fuel to people who post here their links…
lets do the same to everyone

Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 2:59 pm
i have already shared heaps of tanks i harvest refresh share tanks plow refresh share tanks seed refresh share tanks so to my many friends it going to be free and they will do and few good plots but it is not the best concept its not unlimited but its still free
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:04 pm
I’m fine with it, I’m pleased with anything that is free. It’s all better than what I have now. Yes it really doesn’t live up to the hype, but oh well, there will be ways to maximize your fuel if you want more, and if you don’t want to do the work to adopt the fuel, then you probably don’t want it that bad in the first place. I don’t know…maybe make it into a little game, see how many fuels you can adopt from your facebook feed. If you try really hard you might even have fun. Imagine that, you think that’s what they might have intended?
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:07 pm
i think its a rip off. they make it seem so big but then its like.. oh wow
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:12 pm
I am cool with whatever comes out. ITS A FREE GAME! I can’t believe so many people moan and groan over trivial things. FV is a stress relief for me and the developers are creative. I like to get any free gift, and new decoration. If the “weak” free fuel promo is all that people have to complain about then they have a truely blessed life! I love FV, I’m addicted but I keep it real,,,,its a game its free unless you are completely addicted to go spend real money on FV dollars and coins. Then you need an intervention!
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:15 pm
i wouldn’t even have called it “free fuel week”. i would have called it “free sample of fuel week” which better desribes what is happening. i personally thought we woulda gotten infinite fuel…
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:17 pm
send free fuel, get one whole week!

Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:19 pm
THIS WAS WAYYYYYYYYYYY OVER ADVERTISED. like to be honest they made it seem like we would have unlimited gas for a week. its kind of foolish what they’re doing. like honestly? mine as well don’t give no gas at all… hmmm is it just me?
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:26 pm
People should stop complaining. This is what I intend to do:
Stock pile as much as possible. Use fuel til there is only one increment left then let it regenerate. 1/5 is thirty increments so wait until there is less than that to be refueled then use one. Presto! Another refuel. It just needs to refuel again. Just have patience and it’ll work for you.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:29 pm
Plz send fuel, so did I…

Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:33 pm
Some of you really need to chill!
It’s called “FREE” FUEL WEEK. It’s not called “UNLIMITED” FUEL WEEK. Are you getting fuel for free? Yes. Then shut your mouth. Zynga is giving what they said. Free fuel.
Don’t get me wrong, unlimited would be awesome, but they didn’t say unlimited. They said free.
The game is what it is, folks. Zynga does NOT OWE YOU ANYTHING! Just because they don’t do things the way YOU think they should be done, does not make them wrong.
Sit back, enjoy your free fuel and farm!
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:34 pm
Yippiee!!, send me fuel!!!!
http://apps.facebook.com/onthefarm/gifts.php?ref=neighborBar&giftRecipient=1851528372
I’m sending to the links in comments above too!!!
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:37 pm
My tests have revealed a glitch… the first shared link on friend’s walls yields “adoptable” 1/5 fuel, yet subsequest posts do not… FV dialog box claims tanks already were claimed (this was impossible as testing enviornment was a closed loop of one poster with only one claiming neighbor). Odd to say the least.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:38 pm
SO 1 FULL TANK EVERYDAY FOR THE WEEK THAT’S 7 FULL TANKS AND THE GAS GUZZLER RIBBON REQUIRES TO USE 10 TANKS JUST TO GET THE FIRST RIBBON lol
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:38 pm
Look, 1/5 tank does not equal 30 plots. It equals 150 plots. Good grief.
It looks to me that we are allowed 5 free tanks per day. Based on my experience, it’s not quite that simple. I got an adoptable tank from my daughter. She also gifted me a tank. Farmville only credited me one of the tanks. Now that sucks air. In any event, the most plots you will get per day is 750 aka 5 full tanks. Come back tomorrow for another 750. IMO, this isn’t such a bad deal. It saves me time when I have to harvest crops before work in the mornings.
To people with many neighbors, this isn’t such a good promotion. I suspect many of you were thinking you could get unlimited fuel this week. Did you really think that? Really? LMAO.
Lastly, you do know your tank replenishes itself near about 3-4 times per day, right? The key is you must use the fuel so the ticker will restart. In my experience, it takes about 7-8 hours for a tank to refill.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:43 pm
To Kellyann,
I did the refresh thing, too. Then when my daughter tried to collect from each refresh, she only got 1 free fuel.
I suspect the promotion is 1 fuel refill per friend, meaning Kelly can only gift 1 refill to Bob or Bob can only adopt one refill from Kelly. He can’t have both and he can’t get either multiple times per day.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:44 pm
they should have a free mystery box week.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:47 pm

Yeah, cause it’s free!

Happy Free Fuel Week!(eventhough its not unlimited), its not bad for some.
Regards,
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:54 pm
i think everyone who is proposing this “trick” thing misunderstands it. when you have a full yellow bar of fuel with no + 1 or anything underneath it, it is just the regular fuel that you got from waiting 6 hours to regenerate. u got your +1 for the day, so now you have a full yellow bar and a +1, if you add the 1/5, it only says +2 because its the +1 u earned from free fuel week, plus the whole tank of fuel that you earned by waiting for 6 hours, and THEN the 1/5.
This is not a trick , and not a freebie from farmville at all. just think about it logically for a bit. I know it gets confusing with all these 1/5s and +1s everywhere.
Unfortunately, this is not what we expected.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:55 pm
Chrystal/Kellyanne…
That could very well be it. I will introduce a second neighbor into the mix and see what happens… the original neighbor should not be able to get a tank from my next post, but the new neighbor should…
Zynga is probably trying to cut back on spam-posting like what happend with the holiday presents (the take one out… put one in thing). This would make a back and forth “fuel-war” counterproductive between two people, but not an entire book of 100+ neighbors… so I don’t really think it’s going to cut back much on this phenomenon…
It’s going to be a long week… sigh
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 3:58 pm
you can, however, get at least one “1/5″ via gifting and “adoption” per person, per day. This has already worked.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 4:04 pm
free fuel is free fuel no matter how hard we have to work for it. farmville is a great stress buster and i dont have time to bite my nails anymore! this fuel thing is keeping us talking and playing so its all good
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 4:09 pm
Just another ploy to get people posting up FARMVILLE on their walls to generate more application members and more FV $ money..lame in my opinion based on the way it was hyped.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 4:19 pm
Oh my goodness people, free is free, take what you are given graciously and just play the game. Zynga & Farmville don’t “owe” you anything. Enjoy what you are given!

Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 4:30 pm
Yeah l know maybe l’m naive but… free fuel week to me sounds like: FREE FUEL WEEK, no gifted fuel week, or you can share fuel week, or wtf fuel week… l think people in Zynga is using the word FREE so freely. Free means without cost, payment, or charge. If l spend the 1/5 of fuell l get “freely” l must spend mine that l have stored…
Anyway is better than nothing but l feel free to repeat freely…. fuel is not free in farmville, not even in Free Fuel Week.
And like l use to say… l want a dog, free , not free or whatever… just a dog for our farms…
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 4:52 pm
Well to me the free fuel week seems okay. Free full tank of gas every day. And friends can gift you 1/5 of a tank free. Plus you can get 1/5 of a tank free with the share thingie. How about this? When you sign on and your tank is full, use up one of your 1/5 tanks. Then go away for a bit. Naturally Farmville will allow your now 1/5 tank to fill up over time. Go back, it will be full again and then use up another gift 1/5 tank to start up a new tank….. and so forth. Have fun with it
It is a game after all. 
Irene
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 4:53 pm
I guess it’s better than no fuel but doesn’t seem much at all.
And to think I repurchased a harvester/tractor thinking it would a little more plentiful.
I didn’t think they would do “unlimited” but man.. 1 tank.
Doesn’t get you far but oh well. I’ll use my free fuel to get the plow ribbons and the rest will be with my mouse tractor.
Either way.. i’m not clicking like a mofo. LOL
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 4:58 pm
wow… so vague.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 4:59 pm
everyone is soooo greedy get over your self if you dont like what you get from farmville then stop playing or quit whining be happy zynga is doing this. quit being conceided. be appreciative
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 5:03 pm

this is exactly what i expected

I felt disappointment too last week when the XML file was posted. It became clear that free fuel wouldn’t be unlimited like I initially expected. Then today seeing it’s only 1/5 made it more disappointing.
Then I came here and found the trick to making 1/5 a full fuel and I’m pretty happy with it. This way the Lord of the Plow ribbon will be a bit faster to obtain.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 5:20 pm
These kids in the Farmville picture look like they’ve been huffing the fuel.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 5:27 pm
Again WAAAAH WAAAAAH WAAAAAHHHHHHH
People complain about everything. What a bunch of fricking babies!!!! Don’t like it, go play FarmTown or another game & leave it to the people that want to play the game properly.
Sure I want to level up faster etc, but I am willing to wait the extra few days to complete the task or to get the blue ribbons etc. Thats the whole point in playing a game, to achieve things playing it not to achieve things simply through wanting everything for free or done for you.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 5:29 pm
I don’t mind it being 1/5 of a tank (30 plots)…yes, originally, I thought there would be a lot more fuel available, but this is better than nothing…I have neighbours that send back whatever I send, so I could just do that and easily have a couple full tanks. Better than nothing, and it’ll be a help with Lord of the Plow, along with the soon-to-be-released Gas Guzzler and Need For Seed.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 5:43 pm
My take on this is: Farmville is constantly being developed and new features added on a weekly basis and this level of development must be costing Zynga a good few bob. No one should really expect or beleive that commercially Zynga can give this level of commitment free of charge. That said recent months have shown a dramatic shift from the “cool” features that are Free to use (This is what has promoted the game to the world-wide status that it currently enjoys) to a constnat stream of blatent money making gimicks which have detracted from improving the game play. In order to keep the more long standing players in the game the developers need to address both types of development.
From a usability viewpoint, this promotion leaves something to be desired in that it is overly complicated and too time consuming when compared to the reward to actually add to the enjoyabilty of the game – in fact could become quite tiresome and onerous.
It’s a bit gimmicky and I’m all for these little promotions as it keeps the game new and varied which without the game would become very stale very quickly because let’s face it once you’ve gained all the crops, mastery and ribons what’s to keep you playing??????
IMHO before any more of these fancy promotions that add a shortlived excitment to the gameing experience, Zynga should address the issues of the seasoned player.
1.) Increase the numebr of levels past 70 so that more FV dollars can be earned.
2.) Introduce new crops that are unlocked when you are in the levels of 40+
I can assure zenga that once I’ve acheived level 70 and have gained all the masterys there’s nothing left in the game to keep me ploughing, planting and harvesting …. after all that’s the core premise of the game – not pimp my farm up with gimicky decorations and the odd time-consuming gimick. These won’t keep people playing….
Sorry, if any once actually got to the end of this mini-rant – I did get a bit carried away

Well let’s work with what we’ve got – 1/5 fuel is better than nothing.
I’ve sent fuel to those who have posted gift links and would appreciate it if others did the same. Free fuel is still “free”. Thanks in advance!

how come i don’t get my free fuel i don’t know but when i enter nothing comes out can somebody help me
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 5:58 pm
For all those who think we should not be complaining about Zynga at all since this whole application is Free.. please remember that they are making money via us. They get paid for every promotion that causes us to use Facebook. This crazy frenzy we go through to get free fuel results in millions of refreshes of our FB pages and that many impressions on the ads on that page.
I love the application.. but don’t expect me to be grateful to Zynga for this being free.. they make money via us and so indirectly, nothing is free.

I get a chuckle out of reading these. Some people are truly greatful for anything given to them and appreciate a fun free game. And some people are just plain spoiled rotten. I have an idea (yee spoiled one), if you don’t like the free fuel, just leave it there. Don’t use that 1 free refill Zynga gives you each day. To the rest of you, it is so nice to meet people on farmville like you. I have some really great neighbors that are having fun with the new things Zynga comes out with. Thanks Zynga for your continuous creativity!!

I think its awesome! I’m up to 45 fuel refills already and its only day one! That is way more than I could use if it was unlimited full week… I can use this for months! Yay!!!
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 6:53 pm
I am seriously underwhelmed with “free fuel week”. Maybe I’m naive, but with all the advertising that Zynga did, I was expecting *unlimited* free fuel for the week. (Imagine seeing a sign for “Free Church Supper Tonight!” – I’d expect a full dinner, not being served *part* of a supper, say the appetizer.) I figured that everyone would get to have fun using all the machinery (harvester, plow and seeder) for a week and that Zynga would hope that some people would like playing that way so much that some of them would be really to cough up real money to buy FV$ to purchase fuel and keep playing that way.
I think a much more accurate way to advertise this week would have been “bonus fuel week” or “giftable fuel week”. That would have kept my expectations more in line with what the feature turned out to be. (Managing expectations is important for a company making its customers happy – tell me the *right* info, and I’ll be much happier with the same thing.)
I see that some people are excited that they’ve figured out how to use the fuel to increase their fuel stash; this might not be quite as exciting as they first think. Here’s my analysis …
First, for a while now, you’ve always been getting free fuel. If you haven’t played FarmVille recently (in the past few hours) you will have a full fuel tank of 150 units. As soon as you use some of that fuel, the tank will start re-filling, at 1 unit every 2.5 minutes. (So if you use all 150 units, the tank will be full again in 6 hours.) The tank doesn’t go over 150 units. (So the most free fuel you can possibly use in one day is 600 units.)
With free fuel week, you can use your gifts of 1/5 tanks to get multiple refills (each of 150 units) in your tank at once. Each one 1/5 tank contains 30 units, so after adding 1/5 of a tank to a full tank you will have a full tank (with an additional refill in it) in 5 hours.
I don’t play FarmVille around the clock – when playing “aggressively” I can do three harvest-plow-plant cycles a day. If I space two of them about 6-7 hours apart (and use the other 10-12 hours as my night/sleeping time) I can use 150 x 3 = 450 units of free fuel a day. Not bad.
If I instead use the free fuel gifts I get this week to build up a fuel stash, I can use three 1/5 tank fuel gifts a day to get three refills into my tanks a day. (You can get four a day if you you’re willing to give up some sleep – I’m not willing.) So after one day, I’d start the next day with 4 tanks of fuel or 600 units. But, remember to do this, I wouldn’t be able to use any fuel the day before. So, all I’ve really done is *shifted* the fuel from one day to another.
(By doing regular playing I’d use 450 units of free fuel, and then using the three 1/5 tank gifts to get another 3 x 30 = 90, for a total of 540 units of fuel for the day, and I’d still start the next day with 150 units in my tank.)
If I’ve made a mistake in my analysis, I’m happy to hear it. But, I think this will help people better understand what they’re really getting this week.
I’ve often wished there was a way to accumulate more fuel for later use when when I’m not doing frequent harvest cycles, so it’s kinda nice to have a way (albeit a bit clunky) to do it, but it’s not quite what I was hoping for from something advertised as “free fuel week”.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 6:58 pm
“Free Fuel”???
This seems more like 10% off your fuel. What a rip off. Anyone that knows how to do basic math will see that they are using a lot more fuel than what Zynga is giving us for “Free” Fuel Week.

okay, this is complicated to explain, but the “trick” everyone is saying with the fuel is not a trick. you are not gaining anything.
if you wait the 6 hours for fuel in the yellow bar to fill up naturally, that counts as 1 fuel refill, but its all you have , so it doesn’t say +1. if you get your daily +1 from the game, now you have a full yellow bar and a +1 under it. If you get a 1/5 fuel from a friend and use it right before your yellow bar fills again, people are claiming you get a full fuel refill because they see a +2 under their fuel tank when they used to only have a +1. this is NOT the case. The + 2 is because it counts the naturally regenerated bar you already had. its not a full fuel refill.
sorry guys. and yes, i am disappointed. For all those who say we should stop whining, I am not whining,and few on here are. BUT it is false advertising. Zynga did not lie, but they did try to deceive.They don’t owe us free unlimited fuel, but they shouldn’t heavily advertise something for weeks if they intended to give us 1 free fuel a day.
Its like if your favorite store had a “free sample” sale, food store or whatever, or something of the sort, and the advertisement had NO FINE PRINT, so you believed it was free, and then you planned on it, waiting for the day when it was offered, drove 30 minutes to the store, wasted time, gas money, etc, and got there and it was only free with 100 dollar purchase or something like that. DO THEY OWE IT TO YOU? of course not! but its deceiving and upsetting and disappointing and you lose trust.

frankly. it SUCKS…………….its like a parana feeding frenzy……….GONE in 2 secs…. so much so i started posting every one i missed, in less than 30 seconds i could post it…..somehow i have managed to get about 2 tanks, and part of that was gifted….i just gave up………after trying for 2 hrs, had better luck with the ribbons, bonuses and lost animals
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 8:04 pm
It is 1/5th of a tank. So it will take 5 of these to make a whole tank. Add 5 and it will go up 1. I have done this all evening.When you add one,the bar kind of gets big. Watch it .It you already have 3 in it and it didn’t change add 2 and it will change.So I hope I get alot of gifts of fuel as it is to hard to remember what names I already clicked to get off home page ,since you can only get 1 from each person. I do enough clicking on Farmville don’t need to do more.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 8:09 pm
Im not going to lie… one a day is LAME. If they want to make money stop nonsense and go sell it at kmart/walmart. Im getting a little tired of this and im seriously thinking of just quitting.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 8:12 pm
I didn’t see anyone mention this… I think it is interesting that today everyone received “1 tank(s) of fuel for coming back 1 day(s) in a row.” To me, that means that tomorrow we will receive 2 tank(s) of fuel for coming back 2 day(s) in a row (and so on). So by the end of the week, we might be getting significant amounts of fuel (3, 4, 5) just for signing in.
I will say that I too thought that it was going to be “unlimited fuel week” but I’m actually glad for the way it worked out because now we have the option to stockpile fuel. Today, I started with +10 fuel but I’m not currently at +18 fuel due to all of the gifts / adopts that I received so far today.
I’m a fan of free fuel week.
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 8:15 pm
It is FREE…it is a GAME…would you happily accept a free 1/5 tank of gas for your car? Or would you whine that they didn’t fill it all the way up?
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 8:24 pm
I’m disappointed in Zynga for so many things at the moment, they seem to be overcomplicating everything. We don’t need fancy animated decorations like the new years ball, we just need a simple land expansion, and we don’t need a complicated fuel gifting week, we need unlimited free fuel week! Not to mention the constant out of sync messages at the moment, they just seem to be failing at all the basics.
That said I am trying to save up as much fuel as possible, please send me some and I promise to send it back to you too!

I think it sucks!!! you need 50 neighbors sending you a 1/5 tank as a a gift and the same 50 sharing their fuel to equal one gold egg worth of fuel!!! This is very disappointing ..I feel that it’s krap!
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 9:25 pm
You people dont have to put the fuel u got from presents in your gift box…
you can use them…and it will be like 2000/150 fuel like that and the amount of tanks will be given below… like (+94 fuel = 14350/150)
(that’s how much i have!!)
So u dont have to have them cluttering up your gift box
Posted on January 4th, 2010 at 9:29 pm
people, all i have to say is SHUT UP! your annoying stop defending zynga! zynga doesn’t like you, they like your money. And for them to give us free gas.. hun i can get one fuel a day too.. shoot, i dont even get one fuel.. i get 1/5.. its kinda fricken ridiculous. zynga just wants us to buy cash… AINT GONNA HAPPEN! of all the advertisement indicating that we will have FREE FUEL FOR A WEEK. 1 FUEL TANK A DAY … FREAKING SERIOUSLY? and your bashing on me?! get a grip this is foolish.. and they have nothing better to do.. they know if they give us something worth the happiness we wouldn’t buy cash… BUT NO! they give us something cheap unvaluable and worthless like seriously get a hold of your self. i got charged over 1,000 dollars by zynga and i will NOT stop my protest.
***Thanks for all the freaks that care + agree !!!!

Okay everyone, here are a few observations and a few of my own suggestions:
Yes, as Rick said, there is a bit of a glitch…even though you are able to refresh your farm multiple times….it doesnt actually allow you to post fuel to the livefeed infinitely many times…..since a full day of the free fuel hasnt passed yet …its hard to predict but it is likely that you will be able to post fuel to the live feed only once a day…
However if you really want to get more fuel….you need to work together with a small knit group of your friends….it is a bit slow the first few days…but once you get rolling…..its awesome:
What to do….5 of your friends need to work together…try to pick whichever five have the most gold chickens…since they are the ones that lay the 20 refills of fuel…anyways…learn how to coop stuff if you dont already know…..(just google iit if you dont know- there is a really good explanation of it under the zynga forums or at least there used to be)…so…coop stuff your brains out…and each and every time you get an egg….LINK it to your friends directly….dont publish it on facebook feed….keep it between you and your friends….eventually you & your friends will build up your gold chickens so that u can stuff with only those…..and then…if each of your friends agrees to do some stuffing each day…..you will start getting 20tanks of fuel occasionally (plus lots of other goodies worth lotsa coins)…
I simply dont get how ppl are confused over the 1/5th of a tank..its not a hard concept…and no…you dont get more or less depending on whether you add it when the tank is almost full or not….it just adds 1/5th everytime..like…when i had 526 tanks in reserve and a half a tank left on the bar..i then got 3 gifts…so 3/5th more…it put me to just over 527 tanks…it doesnt give you an extra full one..its just simple ADDING OF FRACTIONS. (526 1/2 plus 3/5 = 527 1/10)…do not let yourself get confused by ppl telling you that it matters when u add it to your tank…1/5th is a 1/5th NO MATTER HOW YOU LOOK AT IT…i’m a math teacher…please trust me
So…want more fuel? then in summary: encourage your friends to send you fuel…but if you want to start really profiting…learn to coop stuff your goldies to get 20tank refills on a daily basis btw 5 friends that you trust to post to each other…
If you arent sure how to link an egg that you harvest directly to your friends..do this
. They have 24 hours to get it b4 it expires.
1) Click on share like you normally do on the first popup when u get a mystery egg
2) Dont click publish on the next popup- instead….right click on the icon of the mystery egg in the top left part of the pop up..
3)Select COPY LINK (or COPY SHORTCUT) or (COPY ADDRESS)
4) Paste to 5 of your friends thru FB chat, inbox, messenger, etc.
5) Click Cancel on the second pop up so that the egg is reserved for the 5 friends that you want to get it
Cheers
Donna

Hi, does anyone know about the animals moving…? I went on my farm today and one of my cats rotated and was moved. Then I SAW one of my calf go forward and rotate too. THEN I also SAW one of my goats doing that, then the black sheep, lamb, duck, pig, and swan. Does any one have an idea about why this is happening? Did someone hack farmville or is something going on with only my account. This is kind of scary… I just saw another one of my black sheep move. Like someone’s dragging them. I’m definitely not moving them cause I can see my mouse right here… Thanks to all that can help me.

You should add the fuel when your tank is almost full, then let the next tank fill almost full then add another 1/5 if you want to build up your supply.
Also, maybe today is only a free 1/5, then tomorrow may be 2/5, then 3/5, 4/5, and a full tank at the end of the week.
Posted on January 5th, 2010 at 12:11 am
I can never get the fuel, even if I pick it up after two seconds it says: Sorry partner but all of NAME’s fuel has been used. Try again next time!

I’m happy enough with free fuel week. Sure, it would have been nice to have unlimited fuel, but it would have unbalanced the game. It would have been really easy to get lord of the plough and levels up through ploughing and deleting, which ruins the fun, and it would have discouraged people who had previously paid for fuel.
Zynga has to make money, otherwise they can’t continue developing the game. Fuel is arguably the most useful FV$ purchase you can make, and although you progress more slowly if you choose not to purchase it you don’t lose any core functionality without it. I think they’ve made a good business decision by making fuel FV$ only, but giving us slow refills and now this free week to let us know what we’re missing by not coughing up real money.
Yeah, it would have been nice to get a little more, but maybe tomorrow it will be 2 free tanks, then 3, then 4…

@Harry and Jas
the animals are moving because they are allowed to walk, click on the animals and then click stay, the animals won’t move anymore
@ all who don’t like Free Fuel Week
did you really think that zynga would give us unlimited fuel , or as many fuel refills as the golden eggs. no, i didn’t
i had a feeling that it would be like this, even the late activation was a sign that it won’t be as good as we imagined
Here is my trick to make fuel fast
1. After I plowed my plots (470) I only had 2 refills left(with the one that farmville gave, full)
2. I went to the FB homepage and saw 2 friends that were sharing fuel, i got both of them, now I am at 3 and 1/5
3. then i went to all of my families account and sent me, my sister, my parents’ and a few of my cousins 1/5 fuel
4. Then i logged into my account and saw 22 gifts waiting for me
5. i opened all of them and i directly send them to my fuel bar because i wont have time to log in every 6 hour, so after i spent all my fuel i was at 7 3/5 , so this is pretty good knowing that i needed just half an hour to get this sum of fuel 5 and 3/5
I don’t think its really difficult, and i am satisfied with the Free Fuel Week because at least we don’t have to spent all our cash on fuel refills
I got 40 refills in the presents and 50 refills 3 months ago in a mystery box but i spent them very fast because i used all of my vehicles

The trick of this that everyone of those 1/5 fuels can be “turned” into a full tank.
One) Wait until your tank is full
Two) Go to your gift box and use a single fuel refill
Three) Your previous full tank will now be “stored” and your tank will have 30 fuel in it.
Four) Wait five hours for your tank to finish filling
Five) When your tank is finished filling you can use the process again and again.
This gives you the ability to gain four tanks a day!
Collect your gift box full of fuel and then use any “extras” you get to make the refill process faster.
Times until full tank
1/5 Tank = 5h
2/5 Tank = 3h 45min
3/5 Tank = 2h 30min
4/5 Tank = 1h 15min

This whole “Free Fuel Week” is a joke. Free fuel would mean you just log into Farmville and use as much as you want for a week. I had plans to plant 4 hour crops and plant as much as I can to take advantage of it. Instead, they offer 1/5 of a tank that you have to work like crazy to get.. So if you have to work for it.. it’s not “Free” like Farmville claims. Just another let-down by the makers of Farmville. So basically, it would take getting 100 of these 1/5 tank fuels to equal the 20 fuel you can get from a gold egg or 10 fuel you can get from a black egg. Forget the fuel, I’m concentrating on the eggs. Thanks Farmville for your generous sip of fuel.

For those that are sending the fuel VIA the links on here and those that are getting them from those that are NOT on their friends list, are you getting the fuel?
Mine is not registering… I had 3 in my inbox this morning from ppl that were not on my friends list, and they did not show up in my gift box.

@ D’Rock
FREE Fuel means… you get fuel for nothing. There is no statement about get all you want. It’s free. They give you 1/5 a tank for free. You did not pay FV$’s for it. You did not spend coins or anything it’s given to you for free.
@ Everybody else who complains about Free Fuel Week
While UNLIMITED Fuel would be awesome… These comments would be full of people complaining that they had spent REAL money on fuel refills in the past, and now the fuel is just being given way. Which it was during Christmas… and those people complained.
But more importantly, I think this is structured very well. It works wonderfully if you play often, have a bunch of ACTIVE neighbors who also play. I have a job, so I get to play maybe once a day. So I get home from work, and go through my farmville feed, and collect whatever animals, bonuses, etc., from my neighbors. Then i collect my gifts. Then I go and play. The point being, after going through my feed, and collecting my gifts.. I ended up with over 8 full tanks of fuel from all those 1/5th refills. And if i bothered with the “trick”, that could of been a LOT more fuel.
This week is set up to reward those who play often, have a lot of neighbors, and if those neighbors play often. It works out very well for the people who are actually playing the game.

Let see what the rest of the week brings!
Posted on January 5th, 2010 at 12:03 pm
if you wait till your fuel gauage is full then add 1/5 fuel wait 6 hrs and it will fill it up. repeat as often as you have the fifths for additional fuel… can be done every 6 hrs, that adds up to quite a bit of fuel. so collect those fifths and use them wisely
Posted on January 5th, 2010 at 12:23 pm
I got 1 full tank fuel on day 1 (yesterday) and 2 full tanks of fuel on day 2 (today)… so is that a progression?
for a 7 day week: 1+2+3+4+5+6+7 = 28 full tanks = 4200plows
but if its a 5 day week: 1+2+3+4+5 = 15 full tanks = 2250plows
in addition the fuel gradually fills up in an empty tank in about 6hrs
so, let’s wait n see..
Posted on January 5th, 2010 at 12:26 pm
1/5 fuel is not very much, but look, you can take one fuel refill, and waith to other 4/5 fill up, then you take second can. waith again and again and again .. so instead of to have one fuel refille, you can have 5 … Don’t know very good english but i hope you will understand me ..

I HAVE NEW TRICK FOR GAAAASSSSS
New Cheat for gas:
1. Take all you can of gas 1 / 5 available.
2. When you go to your farm, wait for the tank is filled.
3. When it is full, add only 1 / 5.
This will give you a full tank every time you do.
Trick by Reynaldo Nelson and instructions by Robert Hack.
Posted on January 5th, 2010 at 12:58 pm
You don’t need add and add the 1/5 gas….only wait to farmville put full your tank and ADD only one 1/5 and the tank go again in full and add another full tank.

@ Bob!
your absolutley uneducated to me. its kind of pathetic. i suggest u slow your role and stop teaching us what to do and what the hell to think. its annoying, your not the boss……….. stop acting like it. you only play once a day? to think your good, i plant 4 hour crops through the whole entire day, calll me a farmville freak? GO FIGURE! you are bothering me – sure i know where your coming from, but it aint nessasary. its pretty intolerant. okay so yeah unlimited fuel = LOVE!! but to be honest your opinions are out of proportion, you think just cause we get SOME [not even one] fuel refills, means we should be SOO happy, HONESTLY? like i really am selling my fuels cause how mad i am, its dumb I DONT WANT IT! its cheap. if the cowards of zynga actually want us to enjoy our play and stuff, they should give us something we actually want. THIS IS SOOOOOOOOOOO STUPID. And quite frankly… im not the only one who thinks this way soooo ehhh yeahhh babe

+GOD BLESS MY SUPPORTERS<3

@Ram
If you consider your putting in the 1/5 tank first, then it really only takes 5 hours. You save 1 hour and 15 minutes by putting in the 1/5 tank. I’ve been doing this since the first gift I got. I’m surprised it took so long for everyone else to figure this out and even more surprised that there are still people who haven’t figured it out.

Keep in your Gif Box 10-1/5.
The time it takes to produce your farm, you have more time to make a few tanks of gas to re-take the plow.
If we calculate, would have to plow at least more than 10 tanks of gas per seed.

@ Liki: I am level 33, you mean to tell me through levels 1-32, when the animals were allowed to walk, yet they didn’t budge they were just very obedient animals? I don’t think so buddy. I think by now I can understand basic concepts such as “allow walk” and “stay.”

My farm alone takes 6 fuel tanks that includes,(Harvesting,Plowing and Planting)
Not totally excited about this whole free gas thingy.. in my case beggers can’t be choosy.. Seems like its more work looking for the free fuel, clicking ok then going to myr Gift box, clicking USE and watch it barely move (maybe move) I think it moved.. well you get my drift..right? right!

zinga greedy sucks 1/5 free fuel,,,,,,not even 1 fuel hate zinga for that i don’t knw how much money they want to make hate you more for making fun of us
Posted on January 7th, 2010 at 10:52 am
I don’t think it is very easy to get fuel, and they are not allowing for very much “free fuel”. When your farm gets too big it sucks to click on all of the squares and I think it will lead to people quiting early.
Posted on January 29th, 2010 at 6:33 pm
We should get 1 fuel refill every hour (even if we’re not on facebook). We also should get 500 farmville cash every hour (even if we’re not on facebook)
Posted on March 4th, 2010 at 6:43 pm
I Think we should be able to buy gas with our coins I have over a 1,678,456 and nothing to buy with it
Posted on March 30th, 2010 at 7:32 pm
