It's my understanding that this is a 'Trading' thread which implies both giving and receiving. People like to give, so think of asking for frogs as doing us a favour  |
Thanks,
awboj, received both.
As for the trading part, that's separate in my mind from "asking." I always reciprocate & randomly just send stuff. Yes, I agree, it feels good. It didn't feel good to me to ask. I'm soooo not a typical gamer...

I'm more patient than most but I first bought the Express MB because I really wanted it. I later sprung for the Babyproofing because I loved the game & wanted to encourage NB to continue to support it & update it. This, BTW, was before there were even 16 habs.

Yes, "chilling tale" but you warmed the cockles (huh? where are they?) of my heart with your kindness,
MartiNZ & did receive both frogs.

It's worth seconding that, even within the same message.
I view consumables (potions & stamps which can be used up) quite differently than non-consumables (Babyproofing & Express MB which keep on giving).

Received the Axis,
Nirtew. Many, many thanks to a longtime PF buddy. My foreman is still unbudging on the potion, stamp, & benefits stuff, however.

Sadly I gifted away most of my frogs not ten minutes before you made you desperate plea, however I still have a few here that I shall send on to you, in order to placate said Tool, and ease your burden. I have a Hennae and a Quilta on their way to you!

Dear Dark Laser Star (my code name for you),
He is a total & complete &%^#@!!. 'scuse my punctuation but strong symbols are needed here,
dlstar!
Most grateful to receive the Hennae & Quilta. They are currently in good company in my MB along with the other generous gifts from others above. Sent you an Emblema of my appreciation of your understanding, humor, & kindness.

Clearly you're not as far in the game in terms of level. Instead, I sent you an Aceris for Level 19.

If anyone has a spare FIGULARIS, VICIS, or FORAMEN.... I will have all the new frog breeds! Check my habitats and you can have any you like. Thanks in advance....����������������

Just requested you as friend but can't send Figularis until you accept. It's sitting in my Nursery. I'll save it for you.

Ah, yes, voting. I think my battery would have run down just doing early voting! Incredible how many people on a mid-day on Friday would find it critical to cast their ballots & be willing to wait an hour or more in a large community civic center.
Interesting factoid about voting I heard on the radio: 95% of Australians vote, the highest percentage in any country. Are they just more patriotic? No way to know. Their election day is a holiday & EVERYONE is expected to vote. If they don't & don't have a valid excuse, they are fined $20 & are absolutely expected to pay up.
p.s.: This may be redundant but I always put my thanks in a p.s., if only to keep track of it myself. So ponds' full of thanks to
awboj for the Pistrix, Favus, & Nebulus,
MartiNZ for the Favus & Foramen,
Nirtew for the Axis,
dlstar for the Hennae & Quilta, &
Andi, whom I didn't thank above, for the Americano.
p.p.s.:
DO VOTE! No matter what your political persuasion, hair color, or shoe size, it's a fantastic privilege &, I think, a civic duty as well. Plus, it gives you the opportunity to say that you did all you could do if the candidate you support is not elected.
