Cafe World 50% Lightning Stove

Hiya Chefs,

Have you noticed the following happening to you?

1. You have 27 stove slots.
2. You receive the pop up for the 50% Lightning Stove
3. You place it which gives “28 of 27” stoves, increasing the slot by 1
4. They build their stove (stove 1).
5. However, the option to continue to build them remains, you see this in your functional inventory
6. You move stoves back into your inventory to bring the total down to 26, which will then allow you to place and build another 50% stove.
7. You place it
8. This brings your total back to 27
9. You build their second stove (stove 2)
10. You then go back to your functional inventory, to move the first stove (stove 1) that you built back into your café, however now you can’t exceed your total of 27 of 27, even when you were able to do this before.

You should be allowed the extra stove slot if you get the 50% Lightning Stove. The loss of a stove slot if you return the stove into your inventory is a bug and Zynga is working on a fix now as noted on their Official thread.

CityVille Gets A Dose of Euphoria on Zynga and Enrique Iglesias Team Up

  
Enrique Iglesias and Zynga made an announcement on September 29, 2011, a partnership to celebrate the artist’s Euphoria Tour, connecting Enrique fans and CityVille players in an entirely new way. Starting Tuesday, October 4, players in CityVille will be greeted by someone new in the game – Grammy-winning global superstar, Enrique!

"Through this partnership with Enrique, we’re bringing his Euphoria Tour to CityVille and giving fans and players a fun and playful way to connect with the artist by celebrating his lifestyle and hobbies – think Miami, speedboats, and airplanes."

The Enrique game feature in will run from October 4 through October 10 in CityVille.

The program features:

•     Enrique Himself, a la Zynga – When Enrique appears in your city, click on his avatar to see what he has to say!
•     Enrique Lifestyle Items – Collect Enrique’s trademark brown boots, leather bracelet, military cap and even a 2-seater plane that celebrates his love of flying.

Empires and Allies Mini-Campaign: The Lucky Mermaid!

Go to your Empires and Allies game and grab your life preservers, soldiers—The Lucky Mermaid just sailed into town!

Legend has it that the Lucky Mermaid brings Empire Points wherever it docks! Do whatever it takes to keep it docked in YOUR Empire—but be careful! You're not the only one who's after it...

The Lucky Mermaid is a brand-new Mini-Campaign! It's a timed quest series with a bunch of different quests you can complete, for increased rewards.

There are two branching quest paths. One tends to favor battles, while the other favors more social activities like neighbor visits. Be careful, though! Once you've chosen one, you can't go back and choose the other until you complete the quest chain!

The quest rewards are significantly higher than normal quests, and if you complete the chain before time runs out, you will not only receive Empire Points—you'll also unlock the "Golden Mermaid" decoration for your harbor! Word is that the casino on board the Golden Mermaid can generate some pretty lucrative profits for your Empire...
