User blog:Ladysarah27/Advice Needed Please! Should I Transfer My Tiny Village?

I am very happy to say that I got an iPad today :D Now to my predicament. My village has always been on my iPhone. Now that I have an iPad I can't decide whether I should keep it on my iPhone or transfer it to the new iPad. Either way, I plan to start a second village. So should I leave my first village on my phone and start the new village on my iPad? Or should I transfer my first village to my iPad and begin the new village on my iPhone?

A few things about my first village: I still plan to work on it, but it does not need as much attention as it did in the begining. I am at level 54 and slowly making my way through the levels. At this point I usually set the longest recipes for over half of my stores. I only do the short recipes for my scooter, apple, and mystic quartz stores. This helps make it faster when I pop into my village to collect and restart recipes. Also, I still plan to work on my dino collection in this village because it is close to being complete. Lastly, I am very attached to my village. I have put a lot of time and work into it.

The main reason I am considering the transfer is because it would allow my first village to be viewed on a much larger screen. I have not updated (still on v1.15) so I don't know how the zoom issue will affect things. I suppose a transfer would force me to update :( I have been trying to hold off on updating until Bingo or something like that comes along and makes me because I know I will absolutely hate the zoom issue. It already frustrates me that I cannot see my entire village because I have completed all the expansions and apparently that makes it too big to see. Also, I have never transferred before. I have heard that it is very easy now with self-transfer but does anyone have any advice on this? Is it safer not to transfer? I don't want to risk having any problems with my village.

Ideally, I would like to get the second village started within the next 24 hours or so so that I have time to complete the Harvest week challenge and begin earning crystals for that village (esp since it is 7 crystals this week!).

Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated!
