    I know the "neighbors" feature in Game Center is a little behind on what it shows for points/habitat occupants for other players, but I pretty much figure the two people who are above level 58 in my friends list probably weren't level 17 at the last update. Which means they've been playing a while, with no new frogs at all.

    And will be, unless of course there are more new frogs in our future.

    Now I know everyone has an opinion about this, but S tells me in gamer land when the game designers/coders fix stuff, it's a good sign because they haven't abandoned the game. If S knows anything, he knows a lot about gaming, LOL. Yes I said that. But only because he just wore out another controller.

    I'm not sure if NB's attention means more future levels and new frogs or not, but the watch a promo video for a stamp/potion feature is an interesting strategy.

    Of course they may have added the video for a bonus feature to other NB games as a revenue stream and knew it would be kind of shoddy to add that feature in game that wasn't working quite correctly...

    I suppose I could email the nice person over there who responded to my question about the timing of the fix to the fix, but I'm afraid I'd not get the answer I wanted to hear :) I will note that when I emailed her part of her reply mentioned that they knew that all our gift frogs were "going through the server" which means NB has a pretty good handle on the number of players and their activity level.

    You are always welcome to send me a starter set Lisianne, but my this-weeks-set hab is currently occupied by an almost grown Memorial Day set : ( I won't turn down the coin though - especially considering the number of tries it took me to breed that red albeo Frondis.

    So I'm not the only one who keeps a notebook for frogs, Wicketbird!

    Thanks to RQuilt for the bunch of Bulbus and the Americano
    AndiNZ for the Pulvillus
    JKLau for the Pulvillus (the chroma are cool!) and the Palma
    Lisianne for the Fortuna
    Meplie for the Aceris
    Lermshell for the arbor and the Figularis

    I brought my iPad (and frogs, of course) with me on a weekend getaway, since my crowd all ends up sitting around and device gaming at one point or another. I got a lot of commentary about the notebook. It's the only way I can keep track when I 'dex! And keep track of gifts.

    *hehe* Thanx, Dom, but I really, really wished for the Frondis'. ;)

    For the record, I am so thankful for the patience all you generous gifters have. Taming these high level frogs is hard work. I bow to you! :)

    Dean, I'd love the Olive Folium Nodare from the Pot of Gold set. I've got all the Lunaris already. Thank you!

    Also big thanks to Domenic15 for the Memorial Day set!

    Thanks iluvjae for the Ludo!

    Thanks again to AndiNZ for the Pulvillus!

    Thanks to cms0522 for the Scutalata!

    Finally stumbled up to level 35. I can't believe it - okay that's too dramatic. But I can remember back in my early days of PF and finding this thread, there were several participants that were already beyond level 30 in V1, and I was thinking that is just impossible! I'm glad PF doesn't track how much time I've spent in the game (as I was shocked to discover just such a stat in Bejeweled - and then realizing the time was in hours, not minutes!). I remember someone once used flies eaten as a means to estimate time in the game - no way am I going to search for that post.

    Time once again for me to express my gratitude:
    Tryclyde and MartiNZ
    lisianne and AndiNZ
    meplie, Ella and canadianharuka
    SnappyMcfrog and javaRich special thanks to ya

    Not exactly iambic pentameter, but you get the idea - or not. I really appreciate every single frog.

    Take care.

    Somewhere else
    It had been added to Tiny Tower & Pocket Planes prior to PF, if I recall correctly. It's clearly a purely voluntary, monetizing feature which is also advantageous to the player. This is similar to online videos that have dubious advantage for the viewer except to keep site financially viable. I do get annoyed when, after paying for a NY Times subscription, I STILL have to wait for a promo video to end to see a news clip. Talk about getting clipped!

    Kind of scary. Yet it's probably how NB & other companies convince other devs to pay $$$ (vs. $) to air their promos! In terms of privacy, about as appealing to me as Google Glass.

    You don't need it & Snappy doesn't either. I'll simply keep the Starter Sets (two Frondis, two Americanos) for a day or so to see if someone in the forum needs it. I DO have an extra Red Americano & I JUST sent you that!

    p.s.: Thanks so much to Adp for the Favus & Pulvillus, meplie for the Arcus, & Mal for the Favus & Dimidius.

    p.p.s.: To repeat, I have a full Memorial 2013 Set (or two Starter Sets) or any frogs within those sets available to someone who needs all or part of them. Nothing wanted in return, just request they be forwarded to someone else in need.

    Except for Memorial Day, I didn't complete any of those because I stopped playing for a while. So will gladly take any sets, preferably the most recent one if nobody else want them. Thanks


    Thanks Dom for this week set. :)

    Does anyone have a Purple Callaina Nebula or Black Carota Igneous from the Camping Out set I can borrow? I'll send it back after I catalog it.

    I'd love to take Dean up on his offer, but since there are 3 sets between me and them that would probably be silly.

    Domenic15 - Thank you for the weekly set! Not sure if you intended to send an extra Frondis in each color but thanks for those as well. I'm happy to pass these on to anyone who wants them.

    AndiNZ - Thanks for the Marine Caelus Pulvillis and the Fractus

    MartiNZ- Thanks for the Maroon Albeo Palma. Are you and AndiNZ brothers or something? I just noticed how close your names were.

    JackaboomU - Thanks for the Templum

    Thank you for the Nodares, Dean!

    You all know what's coming next...if anyone wants the Pot of Gold set, I've got it in my hot little hands. Should all be tamed shortly. Let me know!

    Also thanks to MartiNZ for the pretty Quilta!

    I just had a cunning plan for a round-robin of weekly set gifting that'll catch up both meplie & myself on the sets.

    Dean has the following:
    Memorial Day
    Earth Day
    Wet Paint
    Pot of Gold - Nodare gone, Lunaris still available
    Road Signs
    Maori Tattoo
    Happy Birthday Mom
    A Kiss
    Parrots

    I've got Memorial Day and Pot of Gold (since I just got the Nodare from Dean). Then I'll need everything thereafter.

    meplie needs all of them. (I think - but maybe you got Memorial Day from Dom already?)

    What if...
    Dean gifts Memorial Day through Wet Paint to meplie.
    Then I gift Pot of Gold to meplie.
    Then Dean gifts me Road Signs through Parrots, and I gift them all in order to meplie

    I feel brilliant right now. :cool: What do you guys think? Feel free to tell me to butt out if all that's too much trouble! ;)

    It is a good idea if Dean don't mind. Dom already gave me the Memorial set. I think I will need to work on a couple of sets in between though. But if you don't have those, I can send them to you after.

    I am fine with the plan :) Just need to tame the little froggies and will start shipping the Road Signs on to Jackaboom. Please do NOT send anything in return.

    I've gotten up to Pot of Gold, so I don't need anything more recent than that, thanks. Even if you aren't interested in my cunning plan, do you want Pot of Gold? Send me a GC request if yes: JackaboomU.
