Can we consume our food for the day prior to pests or similar effects?
Can we choose to grow our food before or after such effects?
For now I will just assume that events take place at the start of the turn and eating at the end...

Food as consumed at end of day. Or at least not at the beginning.
Such events always happen at the very start of a round, before any players have taken their individual turn.
Correct

Can we convert coins back into time units? For trading purposes of course.

Nope. They can essentially be used as a promise that you will return the effort later.

There goes my master plan 
Ah well ill just have to come up with a new one.

[Talvara]

so I have a question about socialising vs relaxing?

relaxing 2 times costs 2 time... and gives you 2 happyness
Socialising once costs 2 time, and gives you 2 happyness, but also gives 2 happyness to another person.

It seems that the net results of socialising is far greater than relaxing or does the other party of the socialisation need to pay up the time aswell?

[Unholy_Pariah]

Socialize (leisure, social, cost: 2 time)- Requires
at least one other player to socialize with you.
Gain 2 happiness. You may explicitly refuse to
socialize with certain other players.

Id say the other person has to pay it as well, the bonus from socialising is that if the other party took the "pretty face?" Trait you gain 3 happiness instead of 2

Can I join in?

Also, how do you determine which things are in progress? EDIT: I mean, which things have the possibility of being in progress? Like, research and stuff, right? Also, all of the research is available to everyone, right?

Unholy Pariah is correct, everyone has to pay - there's only a real benefit if one of the parties has "Pretty Face"... for the moment, anyway! If there's a group of 4 people socializing together, and even one has pretty face, everyone else gains three happiness. If two have it, everyone gains 3 happiness. So that's definitely improvement, 3 for 2 action points.

Can I join in?

But of course! And you just record it somewhere.

in that case, can I retroactively change my action before the turn happens ^^?

edit: actually, I'm still a bit confused about how the entire socialising thing works.
could I set it up like "im spending 2 time on socialising, anyone is welcome"?

[GlyphGryph]

Yep, I explicitly said you can juggle around your actions in response to communication up until when I end the day.

You can certainly do it as an open invitation! You might want to explicitly say "anyone but sorcerer kail", though.

[Remuthra]

Changing my action then.

Should we have a header or something for our turns, so that you can find them easily? Or maybe non-turn posts could be in italics...

[GlyphGryph]

Nah, I just look for the posts with spoilers.

Still got a free slot?

[RAM]

Prob'lee, try submitting your turn to find out...

[GlyphGryph]

There are no slots. If you want to play, jump in! The more the merrier, since I'm not tracking most of the stuff it's not really much of a workload for me.
