Okay sure it's Christmas, for some it was yesterday. And sure I got seriously busy with dinner, hours ago. Well between that and Sunday morning breakfast.
But for three reasons.
A: I started gifting at 730 this morning as I see I posted at 8AM+, and haven't finished.
B: I got sooooooooo wrapped up in shuffling things around a bit in night flyer1, plus I have been on a roll using Golden Dice and spyglass. I acquired 120 shovels exactly from visiting neighbors and bounced back home, to hit up the snowpiles, that I only need 1 item to complete the wreath collection.
C: four times more, in my rearranging strategy. I placed my Snow Removal Facilities in the line of the card castle for added bonus, and screwed up my chances of getting globes, the last go-round tapping on them. I've done that mistake before, on something commercial that we needed to visit, and tossing in a bonus building near it, that increases rewards, screws up the challenge.

So you're saying if my snow melting facilities are in the range of my card castle, it messes up getting the snow globes????? No wonder my drops have been so bad. I'm removing the card castle for now - see if thing improve.

 

[Deleted member 5399]

yes @crescent moon I discovered this long ago and as my city expanded I only moved the castle twice.
I just put all my snow removal facilities a roads width away out of range.

@crescent moon I just hit up my facilities for globes again and got 3 out globes dropped.

 

[crescent moon (RIP)]

Thanks for the tip. I stuck the card castle in my warehouse, and decided to build some more residential buildings. When I get more land, I'll bring it back out and rearrange things to take advantage of its bonus. And MAYBE I'll start getting some snow globes! I have 1 spyglass left - will save it for the last week of the event if it's needed.

@crescent moon I just hit up my facilities for globes again and got 3 out globes dropped.

I have high hopes!!! 43 minutes until next drop.

OK Christmas Day, evening @6PM. LOL just got through gifting from Knight Fliers and visiting, and made it for reset time.
Knight Fliers @Airport Arne backward alphabet to @rocky, on up to @JazzyJKC / CaptainJKC. Apologies for previous gifting, rushed out fuel to all, but gave what was needed this time around.
night flyer1 @crescent moon 1 to @WAMike /Mike
night flyer2@ again distracted on arranging city, forgot to post who I gifted to..
tomorrow I will post it.
Again sorry. Wish I could give reason why my forgetfulness, but let's just say it's physiological, affecting the mind, which affects the body, and spirit.
Please bear with me for now.

Just reached level 71.

Still need 5 flatbed scanners. Also need all pharmaceutical lab and repair base level 7. Please see items in sig for items I need also for the new items I have for gifting.

Finally got around to updating my signature with all the changes from the last update. Some good new stuff and some lost favorites. Managed to keep my fuel 20 which was nice. Had a weird thing happen tonight. I hit my passenger limit and even though I did that the game continued to let me clear all my buildings. 1800+ passengers in total. That was a nice surprise.

Thank you so much for all those that have sent me stuff. Always great to have a gift box full each day

Merry Christmas to everyone!
