[Wired Parrott]

My gifts are done for now, I will be gifting again in 5h 30m from now or somewhere in that general time frame.
Many thanks for all the gifts sent my way.

Not sure what is up with the event it wasn't nearly as difficult for me as many others. Had the little tragedies and what women want collections done in 3 or 4 days. The carriage was a bit more difficult taking another 3 or 4 to clear them out. I guess the main problem seemed to be the lack of drops from neighbors. Which really for players with no extra space or electricity to build multiples of 6 different buildings is kind of unfair especially when they can't get drops from neighbors who may have more buildings. In any case I hope the drop rate kicks in for everyone giving a better chance to complete.

Some questions :-

Can you find the Screenshot Picture on your Computer. ?
Mine is stored in a folder called Screenshots created by Windows.

If you can, do you have the Paint Program ?

If so, Load the Screen shot into paint,

Then click on the menu option resize,
This will open a window, make sure the Percentage option is ticked.
enter 50 into the horizontal box, the vertical box should also change to 50
Click o n Ok

Your picture is now about a third of the original size

Then Save As newfilename.

Then try to upload as before

Who knows, it might work !!

Thank you for the help. I finally tried putting it into Word and then coping it into a post. It worked, hopefully I'll have a banner soon.

Good Afternoon Flyers

I'm now in a position to purchase an S1 plane, using 10 gold and 100 silver tokens. I have my sights on my first Falcon, buying it with my tokens will save spending my coins, which I will need to spend on a Sweets Factory (300,000k coins).

Before venturing down this path I would be very interested to read advanced flyers experience of this type of plane e.g. breakdowns (repair items needed) and drop rates. Also, possible onboard fires and passenger death rates, if you have stats for this.

Gold tokens are hard to come by (silver tokens are not) so, I do not want to regret my decision.

Personally I would do it. I have 2 silver jumbos, and 1 silver falcon, and next am going for a gold S2. They do break down, but don't think they are more frequent - you can repair immediately using a greenie or two, but otherwise just wait between 8 and 12 hours, and they are repaired. The flights are shorter than normal planes, and they look good!!!!

Onboard fires seem reasonable, no issues with passenger death rates, and as they are a higher class looking plane, they attract a better clientele, so less anti social behaviour issues!

Didn't get your invite yet, but sending one back your way. GI servers have been slow for me today - taking up to 15-20 minutes to show friend requests.

Gifts sent from !KB and !KB2 this early AM So approx 12-14 hours from this post, I will send again. Any special requests prior to that time will be acknowledged if you PM me and specify which item and what account to gift it from, as some are on both accounts and some, not.
@ Everyone who had difficulty with this challenge, hopefully if GI decides to try this one again, they come up with better drop ratio, than what we received unless one used bonuses to help.
Thus far I am 0 and 3 on the last 3 challenges now in !KB2. That is pretty bad.

LOL - I'm still new to this game so I may just be gullible here, but is this true?!?!? This happens later in the game?

Just sent, but didn't get any message - hopefully it worked.

@gorrion - I still don't show you as a neighbor. Or @Captain WH Rollins for that matter...

I hope so. I have completed the flight and building parts in full, but for the carriage workshops I still only have 3 items towards the first collection! Now, if neighbours workshops also dropped then there would be a chance!

 

[Ten33go]

@Aero Aereola - It's British humor, those things do not actually happen. LOL.

 

[Aero Aereola]

Now I know why everyone likes getting Flight Catering as gifts. All that saving and time building and those places only spit out one item every 12 hours?!?!? Ugh.

Ah, had a feeling that was the case! I was definitely thinking - "Wow, this game gets really dark as you start leveling up..."
