Same.
I am now gifting at the end of the day, then don't accept anymore gifts until the next day.

It's a clever workaround of a problem created with the latest update. Before that there was no problem at all.
@Ur-quan : can we return to the previous scheme of gifting where gifts don't disappear from the list after I accept it (if I gifted to that person before)?

Hear hear !

I'm one of the guy that take gifting game seriously.
When people send 2 gifts .. they should receive 2 gifts in return.

I'm not sure if I understand your message correctly... Did I forget to send you a gift?
If that happened it was only by reason of disappearing gifts after recent update.

Nope, actually he is agrees with your point there

I have flown 175 event flights and received 26 doll drops so I'm seeing about a 1 in 7 drop rate.

How often do I need to complete the Doll collection?

Just 3 times?
Or 3 times as shown on the front sheet plus 2x for the Dragon level 2 plus 3 times for Dragon level 3?

5x (twice to upgrade to level 2, thrice to upgrade to level 3 Dragon)

Phew getting the doll collections is proving to be quite difficult. I've completed 1 set of those so far still and 3 starred almost all 1st 3 destinations

The implementation is IOS is not good. I have a mini Ipad 2 and continuously crashes and stutters. Made a complaint on these and instead was an automated reply of do this and do that which do not have any effect. Further, the implementation of guest plane landing is bad. Even if you have available stands and runways for the planes, you cannot land the pending other planes and will have a warning of no available stands even if you have vacant ones. Seems it always points ot the first stand for the landings.

My figures are 29 drops, 139 flights - just above 1 in 5.

If you check the drop rates they also get upped from "very seldom" to "often" while the corresponding mission to get that specific doll is active. It gets reset as soon as you recieve the first of that doll. So likely you get an extra 2 dolls from that.

What does getting upped from very seldom to often mean? Of course the corresponding mission to get these dolls is still active based on the remaining days of the event.

Hmmm, Seems the landing queue issue is fixed (that fast!). Now let's see if the crashes/stuttering persist.

Haha. You’re very positive. But really, it’s a bug that has been there since V7.0.

I doubt it’s suddenly fixed now after you posted it here.

I still get it sometimes. Not everytime, but it’s still pretty much there.

I think the device is just too old and not powerful enough.
I have a game on Ipad Mini 2 and it crashes everyday. Probably 2/3 times a day, and all I do on it is send gifts.

It means the drop rate goes from "very seldom" to "often" - i.e. you get that doll significantly easier.

But my observation is that it's only active when you are on that specific mission (eg. "Get a Lucky/Happiness Doll") and have not yet fulfilled it, so the effect in a longer sample is negligible.

With respect to event item drops from buildings, I would give the 'ballpark' figures as;
Often ~20-30% (i.e. 1 in 3 to 1 in 5) chance.
Very Seldom ~7-10% (i.e. 1 in 10 to 1 in 14) chance.

Changing the gifting system is in our plans. I can't tell when it will be released, but I can assure you it will be changed for better.

I think most people would prefer the gifting system to be put back to where is was before the update.

" If it ain't broke, don't fix it " !!

Thank you for the reply. Gifting system was correct till the latest update (7.10), why did you make the change which is unhandy for many players?

 

[Awesomerowend]

55 dolls from 296 flights - including 6 full collections
Also, though the new gifting system is addressing the mystery of the disappearing gifts - I have lost much less gifts since the change (if any)
