I think you might as well drop everything you have. Sadly it's a lot harder to coordinate without an easy message system. It's a nice thought to share, but I think you'll find it difficult to coordinate with the other friends and their friends.

I only leave 3 or 4. Trying to spread the love lol.

I leave 2-3 because I find it annoying when I want to drop only to find the town full. By dropping 2 others can now drop.

I only have a few neighbors, so drop blobs every time I can! I was off work so have been bombarding. I thought I was helping. :oops: :lol: Should I not flood them? I like to be a good neighbor. :oops:

It really all depends on how many friends each of your friends have and how often that friend checks in on their town. I check in every couple hours and I'm tapping 10 formless horrors every time.

When I do my rounds, I generally drop off only a few so I can give to all my neighbors. During the day, I give out maximum based on who dropped off in my town assuming that they will clear them out right away.

Thank you, these are all things I wanted to hear. I have time, so usually unload all my blobs, but okay, I'm getting I might be kinder to drop them 2 at a time. Thanks, everyone.

As one of your neighbors I appreciate all the blobs you drop :D

I drop 10 in a town if I can......lots of my neighbours are full so I unload where I can.

I think everyone seems to be doing well in this event, so I wouldnt worry to much about how many and how often you dump blobs.

LOL. Excellent point, @janis. (And I'm not just saying that because I keep flooding your town with blobs.) ;)

It's kind of a catch-22 ... I have such trouble finding ANY town that can accept blobs, that when I DO get to one, I dump as much as they can take, so that my other neighbors don't see on their neighbor screen that I'm sitting on top of 300 blobs, and wonder why I don't get off my rear and share.

I check several times a day to see which neighbors are below the calendar target, and see if they have room for any blobs. If they do, I drop as many as they can take. I don't know how many neighbors they have, and figure maybe they need the help. (And hope they're not sound asleep, because the blobs evaporate after 4 hours, and I don't know where on the planet the player is, so maybe they're in Europe and it's 3AM and they'll never even know I was there.) Then I go to towns who are ahead of the target, and see what I can find.

But I STILL have too many to drop ... so if I see a notification popup that someone has "assisted" me, I go to their town right away and drop a bunch, hoping they're still in their town to clean up and we both get maximum benefit.

I have to tell you, Annette, that my husband is so clueless about this game. He thought when it said, "10" in the right upper corner it meant that's how much he had. You, being an "A" neighbor was one of his first, and he gave you ten of his 24. I told him you would think he was flirting with you, which bothered him all day. LOL!!!

But, well, yes, I do think maybe some etiquette should be established. I love certain neighbors, and want to give them 8 - 10 blobs, but...am I loving them to death? My neighbors reading this, maybe I'm going to pull back a little, okay?
But dropping a low number DOES sound like a great plan. I'd never thought of it that way. Maybe three or four? And then when people see that I have 746 blobs ...
