My accusation rises from:

I usually enjoy harvesting crops every 4 hours or even 30 minutes if I know I'll be tapping often that day. Well, reading on the forum about corn and a new update forcing a new crop, I decided to plant corn today and see if the anticipated update forces a new crop and therefore an early corn harvest. So I planted corn 3 hours ago.
Just now, I get a 8 hour task for Cletus to brew moonshine. I do not have the premium moonshine still and my farm is growing corn. I got excited, thinking this would be my lucky day and I get to harvest corn early. Yaaay.
Not so. Corn is still slooooowly growing and somehow Cletus is brewing moonshine, somewhere....

That yokel. He's smarter than I thought. I still feel giving this task should have effected the current crop.

EA, if you're listening, I'll take an apology in the form of warm, yummy donuts.... Mmmmmmm donuts.

In all fairness, no one knows when the next update will drop. Since we got level 43 so recently, I'm not expecting anything anytime soon (Prove me wrong, EA, I dare you, in fact I triple DOG dare you!). As for the sped up corn, it has only happened once as long as I've been playing. If I remember correctly (which in all fairness, I may not), it was during the Valentines event earlier this year, and it only happened so they could introduce the event's special crop, which were rose bushes. I just remember being hacked off that I missed an exploit I would have been happy to, well, exploit. Now as for your particular situation, sometimes the game will produce random "make-work" tasks, particularly if your town is sort of at a slow point. Are you sure the "brew moonshine" task didn't just show up in your task book, and is therefore waiting to be done until your corn is grown? Either way, I regret to inform you EA isn't going to care, but unless there's some weird bug I've never personally heard of going on in your game, I can probably walk you through this.

So you missed the carrots too? Or did you luck out and miss the Easter event? :wink:

Did it happen for the bunny carrots, too? Awww, #%@$$%#$@!!! That's another exploit I would have liked to exploit. No, I (unfortunately) didn't miss the Easter event, and my bank account is STILL nursing the wounds. :wink:
