Manor system Woes

OK! I love the look of the new manor system, it is streamlined and all the information you can ever need (regarding Crops and Seeds) is right there infront of you.

The addition of the New high end Coba seeds is fantastic (though I can not yet harvest them because of the lvl limits)

My problem is the continuing ability to turn in the harvested crops. I know the time has changed to 8 pm CST (9 pm EST for me)

I am dutifully there 5-10 mins before hoping to get my crops traded in.

So 9 pm roles around and the Manor resets! Great here I go "Click-Sale"..............

"The manor system is currently under maintenance." WTH!!!

No it is not! I can see in the Status window that the Crop buyback amounts have reset. So why am I getting this message still?

I received this message for 24 consecutive attempts to turn in my crops; only to finally see...

"Failed to trade XXX crops...
"Failed to trade XXX crops...

Time was now 9:06pm EST. So for approximately 6 mins I receive a message saying manor is still under maintenance, to finally and Frustatingly get Denied my trade.

This has happened to me 5 days this week (the only days I have be online at the appropriate time for the manor reset) I am getting seriously Annoyed, if I can't turn in my crop (as a great majority of the REAL players can't) what is the purpose of trying to harvest crops?

Am I the only one having this issue? Is there a work around to be able to turn in my Crop when the Manor actually resets at 8pm CST (9pm EST)?

there actualy is a maintainannce from 8pm cst for 5 minutes, no1 can turn in thier crops, nor buy seeds.
And about not being able to turn in their crops.. It was mostly same in C3, wasnt it.

Yes it was... though to be honest the old system had less menus to click through so I found it alot easier to get the jump on the Professional Farmers.

The 5 min maintenance period explains why I can turn my Crop in. But do I really have to ask, Is it really needed?

Thanks for your reply Ledaa

It was possible in C3.

It is not anymore now. ;)

I have the same problem as you and endured it for a week or so-- and then it actually worked. At exactly 9:06 (I am EST myself), I handed in all 546 of seeds. Then I wasn't sure whether the manor system was botted or whether I just hadn't figured it out.

You are doing the right thing-- now I hand in my crops every few days at 9:06 EST and have almost no problems.

I've also switched up what seeds I use: For the first few days the only manor that was accepting my seeds was Giran-- then one day, 4 manor towns began accepting my crops and instead of picking the one which offered the highest buyback price, I chose one of the others.
