How to Get More YoCoins

• Visit Friends: You can earn coins each time you visit a friend in the game. Simply choose a friends avatar from the list of friends at the bottom of the game-play screen. Click "visit." When you're at their house a pop-up screen will list activities that you can do to earn coins. The options include "send free gift," "joke," "kiss," "message," "fight" or "dance." Messages seem to earn the most and you can sometimes earn about 19 coins for sending a one or two-sentence message, though this may vary.
• Work in the Widget Factory: By clicking on "Show Map" you can work at the Widget Factory. In the factory, follow the sign that says "click to work." Depending on how many friends you have, you can earn a lot of coins this way. Keep in mind that you can only do this every six hours or so.
• YoVille.com: If you visit YoVille.com and sign in using your Facebook or MySpace profile, you can play a balloon game and can find 'pots of gold' worth 5 coins each. On YoVille.com, a pop-up will appear alerting you of a gift you can steal or a pot of gold on a friends game. TAKE these as they add up. Simply keep clicking through until you've collected all the coins you can. On YoVille.com you can also play a fun balloon game. For full instructions, visit our page on
  

What is there to do on Petville?

I came across an interesting discussion on the Official Petville Forums. One user, who shall remain anonymous asked what is Zynga’s evil plan behind their newest game. He wanted to know if he was missing anything to the evil plot. He surmised:
What else is there to do besides buy things for you pet or decorate the rooms, cleaning up snacks that the pet gets from somewhere and visiting people and popping bubbles. I guess more stuff will come along but my pet is already bored of visiting people.
One person was quick to defend Petville and said that he could give his pet an Extreme Petville Make-over. Another user suggested that he give his pet a backstory.

My Petville Pet is a Butt Scratcher!

There are signs that you have been playing a game way to long when you start to pick up some of the hilarious animations that the developers added in the game. One Petville user posted this on the Official Petville Forums in the support section:

is this something that they do or do I need to do something to stop the itching?I bathe the pet and clean up the place and she still scratches

Have you encountered this animation with your pet? Is it a sign that there is something wrong with her pet or is it just something fun that they included in the game. If anyone has this animation recorded I would love to see it!
