Hunting for Vengeance
"Revenge, at first though sweet,
Bitter ere long back on itself recoils."
Bitter ere long back on itself recoils."
—JOHN MILTON, Paradise Lost
Can you believe the nerve of some people?
After all I had done for her, crafting her supplies, assembling her rescue kits, searching for, locating and saving her stranded animals all over the godforsaken forest; and this is how Ranger Jane repays me? By coming to my farm and turning her back on me?
She comes to thank me and heap praise upon me for my valiant efforts, but she can't even look me in the eye while doing so? What is wrong with her? How could she be so rude? Especially to a devastatingly handsome and humble hero such as me!
Well I just won't stand for it. I won't be disrespected by this boorish woman; on my own farm, no less! Who does Ranger Jane think she is, anyway? Something must be done to redress her blatant affront!
I decided to travel to Okinawa to visit my old friend Hattori Hanzô and seek his sage advice. If anyone knew about revenge, it was him!
He told me, "Revenge is never a straight line. It's a forest..."
Ahhh, yes, the forest! It all made sense now. I must go back to the forest to get my revenge. But I could not go empty-handed. I needed to craft supplies first!
So I returned home and went into my crafting workshop to plot, plan and produce the apparatus necessary to facilitate my revenge...
I carefully studied my many crafting recipes and blueprints. Surely there must be something in here that would help me achieve the retribution I so richly deserved!
At last I had found it! The recipe for my reprisal was now in hand, and I knew in that moment that vengeance would soon be mine!
Fortunately I had just enough horseshoes to complete the craft. Although I had thousands and thousands of them before Ranger Jane came to town, by some miracle she had not completely wiped me out!
It was decided. I would venture back into the woods, where I had gone to rescue so many animals for Ranger Jane before.
Had I set out to kill Ranger Jane?
No! For that would be to let her off too easy. I would take my revenge on those which she cared for the most - her precious woodland creatures! I would no longer be their savior; for now I would be their hunter. Muhahahaha!
Clearly, my thirst for retribution had driven me mad by this point. Oblivious to the atrocities I was about to commit, guided only by a blind, seething rage, I took aim and fired... and fired... and fired... until all the beasts of the forest finally fell silent.
It was done. Vengeance was mine at last.
Making my way out of the forest and back to my farm, I happened upon a small clearing where to my surprise I found Ranger Jane, in tears, clutching one of my lifeless little victims.
Seems I kinda jumped the gun there, so to speak. I guess I tend to get a little carried away sometimes.
Oh well. You live and you learn, right?

Sprout Troop Perishes in Snowstorm!
I was so worried about Percy and the poor little Sprouts when I received this dire notification:
Apparently, Percy and his sprout troop were trapped up on Mount Leghorn with no way back down because of a terrible snowstorm. The community was expected to band together to rescue them by collecting Survival Kits.
To collect Survival Kits we had to perform some very difficult random tasks, such as harvesting crops, fertilizing trees, posting for stuff, crafting stuff, collecting bait, etc. You know, the usual crap.
I did my best to collect as many Survival Kits as I could, and I almost completed the quest three times over! But the quest was plagued by the usual glitches and issues we've come to expect from quests such as this, making it extra frustrating and hard to succeed.
I eagerly monitored the community's progress the whole time as we reached the first goal, and then the second goal. But I started to become very concerned when, with just 21 hours left to the deadline, we were still short by 92,375,150 Survival Kits in reaching the final goal! The rescue task seemed insurmountable at this point, and I feared the worst for our intrepid Sprouts.
Yet still, I persevered in this endeavor; not just because I always do my best, but because this time lives were actually at stake!
But the following day I found, with just 5 seconds left in the deadline to reach the final goal and save the Sprouts, we were still 76,003,235 survival kits away from rescuing the poor little bastards! I feared the worst. It seemed inevitable at this point... Percy and his fellow Sprouts would surely perish!
...and perish they did. I watched in horror as the deadline, and the sprouts themselves, expired!
RIP, little Sprouts. Not sure why you idiots went camping atop a snowy mountain in the dead of winter, but now you're dead. So let that be a lesson to ya for next time, dummies!
UPDATE!
You may have seen this #FakeNews article that Zynga put out, purporting that "The Sprouts Will Be Home, Soon!" Yeah, right - in body bags!
Don't fall for this propaganda! This is a massive cover-up designed by Zynga to dodge responsibility and salvage their tarnished corporate image in the wake of the Sprout tragedy.
Zynga doesn't want us asking the REAL questions. Like, why were a bunch of preteen Sprouts camping atop Mount Leghorn in the dead of winter, and with no adult supervision?
And if weather conditions permitted a plane to deliver millions of Survival Kits to the Sprouts over a two week period, why couldn't they just be airlifted out of there by rescue choppers?
And why wasn't Ranger Jane called upon to rescue the Sprouts? She's only capable of rescuing stranded animals? Pshaw!
Let not our brave Sprouts to have died in vain, friends! Hold Zynga to account for their role in this horrible incident! Don't let them get away with it!
Let's all attend their live Q&A tomorrow and confront them!
UPDATE #2!
Well, Zynga tried to put their own positive spin on it of course, but it's nice to see that they've finally acknowledged the fate of the fallen sprouts. Kudos to them for that!
