Only gifting once a week... [CLOSED]

I'll only be gifting once a week from here on out, so I understand if folks on my friend list dump me, but these kudos aren't worth that much effort. I hope anyone else toying with this approach will feel free to post in this thread. It's pretty clear the devs have lost interest in lost islands.

The kudos may not be, but the gems may be.

Like obidawsn said. It's not that much effort to go down the list once a day and click on everyone. If you're already playing, it's only a minute of effort.

If anyone wants to fill in a slot my id is claudekennilol, my wife's is AriannaMae.

@obidawsn - the gem hit isn't that big of a concern

@midas73 - I can time travel without going into airplane mode, and it's not a hack! But I promise I won't tell anyone how so there is more room for spreadsheets threads.

Remember that the gem hit may be a bigger concern for the people you are sending gifts to.

Your right Midas I would be letting people down that's why I started this thread so people can ditch me quickly and find someone who is willing to be the daily gifter I used to be willing to be, but I'm not willing to chase kudos that assiduously anymore.

I'm really try to save people time cause I know some people are still into kudos just not me.

I can't believe anyone is into kudos any more (other than people new to the game).

Anyone know if you still get Admiral Thumpback with kudos if you don't have him?

Yeah he costs Kudos. That and the sheep topiary and something else. I still gift due to the fact that I like getting the random Gem and Wishstone from them.

I still haven't bought the topiaries. I originally was waiting to open my last island, but now that I've done that, I suddenly have no space. Mostly because I purchased plenty of Halls for 100 wish stones and all the houses through personal offers. Plus I'm not really sure or to best place them for xp. At this point, I may wait to see if we really do get a bit update with the hope they've been working on something with kudos. Maybe I'm just being too optimistic.

Yeah. I hear you. I have some around a few of my islands. Nothing too special. They need to do something different with the Kudos. Also, need to make it more efficient to visit friends. I would visit friends more because sometimes you can get a gem or stone or find ma-boo or the gem guy and get one out of them. It takes to long to do it though.

I like the xp boost from the topiaries, but it's not as necessary these days now that I'm level 40. And I don't like that they produce energy, which is a pain to collect and if left uncollected is kind of obnoxious.

Count me as another one that will only be gifting sporadically. I have achieved that cool yet dreaded state of having nothing left to accomplish so I won't be checking in as often. I completely understand if others drop me from their list.

Here I am railing against cutting back on gifting and I've been forgetting to do it once or twice a week myself (including, I realize, today). I'm calling myself out on this. Sorry everyone. I'll try to be better but it is hard when my interest in the game is waning due to have very little to do myself. I have a few skylanders to get to level 15 and I'm about 8mm away from my last wood stack house.

I realized I had went several days without gifting a couple of weeks ago. I was having issues with the game constantly hitching. I know it's been mentioned before. It would pause every few seconds. It was becoming so annoying to do anything, I cut out as much tapping as possible. I wasn't sending out sanctuaries or balloons. Gifting ended up being a casualty as well. I finally figured out a fix and started gifting again. I meant to say something on here, but had forgotten about it until now.

What do you have filling your 50 inventory slots?

I haven't maximized my inventory. I never saw a point in spending gems on it. I finally upgraded it once, recently just to give me a little room to move buildings around. Now that I've collected quite a few gems, I thought about upgrading it more, but that doesn't help with space on islands. I have out an outpost in my inventory and debating on selling it. Having buildings in inventory does nothing for you, so what's the point? I've finally broken down and sol. A couple of buildings I've had since the beginning that I had trouble letting go just to make room for new community buildings I needed to build for quests and the mabu houses I needed to get enough mabu to build them. Although I'm now considering storing my cocoa stands once winter is over, but if want to replace them with something else.
