 ===Coffee Beans===
-There are 49 types of raw coffee beans that have been imported into Egypt. These are a new type of ''complex'' item. Tending a coffee tree requires 1 jug of water and another item that is unique to each variety of coffee bean. During each contest period, only three types of beans can be cultivated, which are selected by the University of Leadership. Other types of coffee cannot be planted on a plantation at this time. When you sign up for the test, the University will provide you will 1 bean each of the chosen types. You may plant one bean per round of the contest and tend them as often as you like. At the end of the contest, you may harvest the beans that grew on your trees. The harvested beans are a different item (non-complex) from the beans received from the University, and appear in your inventory as Coffee Beans (Raw). These beans can roasted in a grain oven similarly to wheat, barley, etc to become Light Roasted, Medium Roasted, Dark Roasted, and Burnt. The amount that you harvest from each tree is equal to the number of times that you tended that tree. When you harvest the beans, which can only be done after a contest ends, the tree is mulched and destroyed. If you fail to harvest your beans after 36 Egypt days from the contest end, your tree will die and wither away. You may only plant one tree per round of the contest excluding the final round, and you can only plant if you are signed up for the current contest. Therefore, you may never own more than three active trees at any one time. Trees can be tended up to 10 times before needing to rest. After tending 10 times, you must wait 8 Egyptian hours to tend again - you can tend another 10 times after the time has passed.

-*In the above example, 8 players (A-H) are competing. Players who are in parantheses are no longer in the running to win the contest, but can still participate to add to the tending total of the competing player who beat them in a previous round. In the final, fourth round, player "A" must get everyone they beat (B-H) to tend one of their trees at least once, in order to pass the test. For each round, the game will attempt to pair up competing players in groups of 2. If there are an odd number of competitors, a group of 3 is formed. In the case of a group of 3, the person who tended the most will advance, the person who tended the least will be completely eliminated from the contest (they and any people tending 'for' them cannot tend anymore during the contest) , and the person who tended the middle-most will 'lose' but can continue to tend in further rounds for the winner. In this way, a player who wins amongst a group of 3 will not have an unfair advantage in later rounds (they will not have 'extra' people underneath them tending). As stated before, in the case of a tie, the player who tended last advances. If no players in group tend (they both tended zero times or failed to plant anything) then the winner is the player who signed up for the current competition at the University of Leadership first. If in the final round from the example above, player A does not get every other player (B-H) to tend at least one time, then player A does not pass the Test this competition.

-This test will modify the plantation building. When you build a plantation, you may click on the building and designate it as either a coffee or cocoa plantation (for the Test of Plantation). You can only do this if there are no trees currently planted on the plantation. You can convert a cocoa plantation to a coffee one or vice versa by mulching all trees first. Alternatively, you may build separate plantations for cocoa and coffee should you decide to participate in both tests. During the signup period for competitions, you can travel to a University of Leadership to pick up a packet of coffee seeds. You will be given three different seeds, each for a different stage of the competition. You will also be told by the instructors the order in which to use the seeds.
