Meta S 2024: NO EODs plz

Joined 5 years ago Maryland Offline

I like to help friends by posting Up for Grabs letters. I also try to send to people I know are playing.
I prefer to send gold letters to people who need them, preferably to people who have sent to me. If you've sent to me I try to reciprocate but may eventually send a letter you don't need if I don't find letters you do need.

I usually find all the Eggs of the Day a couple hours after reset. I will IGNORE eggs of the day sent to me later because they are useless to me. Please post them instead

I forgot about the time change and dawdled on posting Free for all letters. So there are fewer posted tonight.

Best wishes for you.
Thanks so much!

Finished New York 'DESTITUTE' and mission Chicago 'VERDANT'. I had to keep reminding myself I wasn't looking for green letters for VERDANT (verdant means a green color).

Players are not actually asking for gold. The names come up automatically after they have collected their gold - OR if the gold has expired and goes away. The latter happens for people no longer playing, after a while the gold you send goes away and you get another request.
Thanks so much META now I understand this.
I usually just send to everyone - then the names of ones who don't collect go away for a week or more. I think it is too much trouble to keep track of those who send gold and since it doesn't cost me anything (beyond the click) it doesn't matter to me. Sure, someone could be taking advantage of me but whatever. Also I continue to get letters and eggs from their slots so I may as well keep them as friends.

I had one of those pop-over ads come up when I clicked on an Up-for-Grabs letter and this time I didn't lose the letter. I wonder if they fixed something or if I just got lucky. I am glad that I got the letter. Thanks to everyone who posts letters to make them available to other players.
It seems like you have a 50/50 shot at not losing your letter. Most times I do, but there are times when I don't. They haven't fixed it...

If you just saw an ad then it probably won't show another right away so the Up for Grabs egg/letter is okay to click. If you're not sure you can try clicking other links like the poster's name or the names on the post before or after until you get an ad - then you should be safe to take the letter. Unfortunately I don't always remember so I still sometimes lose the Up for Grabs.

I keep on losing 'for grabs' letters because of the popup ads - grrrr. I need to remember to open another link just before opening the 'up for grabs' link
Me too...

One time I got signed out and then signed in with Facebook and had a blank (new) profile. I realized I set up my account with email/password, when I signed in that way I got my account back.

I've always signed in with Facebook. Now it gives me an error message and won't let me access my account. Guess I need to start over after 10 years.

That interstitial ad caused me to lose an up for grabs letter I needed!

Thanks Pat Mount for posting the 'S' I needed - looking for it for a couple of days.

That's sad. I had a 'friend' like that once too. I could maybe tolerate someone taking 4-day old posts but not taking everything.

Not seeing any gold letters this time. Sometimes that happens.
Same here earlier. I sent you a couple letters. TY for sending some to me!!
Thanks, Laura, for the letters.

sent you a P for today's word

It took me a while to find two Ys as well in the Up for Grabs letters. It can be challenging to find in your friend's letter boxes even when you have 200+ friends. I try to post 100 up for grabs daily to help my friends and their missions.

Oh ok, that make sense but I have been trying very hard to find more Joybuddy eggs and Joywords I have been trying to get more of them to add since I have lost lot of people and would like to get them back. It would be great honor to have more of them since I only have few pages in both of them

oops I did it again - didn't start posting letters until a few minutes before reset... 50/100 posted this time.
When the time changes this month, it closes at 8pmEST. instead of 7pm. It should be the same elsewhere, I would think.
View context
Oops I forgot to come back and finish posting 100 Up for Grabs before reset. I will post more today and tomorrow.

Some people never send coins because they are not playing. They don't collect coins you send either but after a while the coins you sent expire and the inactive friends come up again on the 'send to friends' list. I don't worry about it.

I nearly forgot to get the eggs of the day yesterday. Thanks to those who posted the eggs so I could grab them at the last minute. (How embarrassing!)

Stuck yesterday looking for 'L' and 'S'. Hunting today I found both the letters I needed on the same page. Sometimes you can get lucky.

If people are collecting the gold you send they should send gold back. Some people are not playing and their names come up on the gold list when the coins you sent previously expire. I have a lot of inactive players (like to hunt their letter boxes and nests) so I don't worry about if everyone sends me gold back.
