Neighbor Etiquette
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 coordina...

It took me a few days to figure out, what I think would be the best method in distributing Formless Terrors (FT) to assist my 40-50 neighbors (and myself of course :P ).
The last couple of days I start the day with approx. 60-70 terrors, but some days I might have accumulated a bit more (100-ish)
Here is what I do with them:
In the meantime I will collect FT from my own town adding to my stock during normal play. Because I'm on vacation, I can collect almost every nightmare the game generates and also keep the kids busy for most of the time and have them tell 5 stories in 24 hours.
So that's it and now I going to visit the neighbors. :)

Here is what I do with them:
- During the daily visits, I will dump 1 or 2 FT per neighbor, depending on the amount I have when I start. If I get a FT from that neighbor during visiting his/her town I will spent that FT back into that town as well.
There are always neighbors in which towns I cannot release FT, because they're full. We all have that and for me it hovers around 10%. Those FT that I cannot spent for that neighbor will remain part of my stock. If I get a FT from that neighbor in their town this also becomes also part of my stock.
At the end of the rounds I end up with less (but not zero) FT, lets say around 30.
Those 30 FT will be used by me for neighbors who release FT in my town. Typically I return 5 as a minimum with 2 sidenotes:
a) if their town is full, I will try to remember to return the favor at a later time, but this is no guarantee.
b) if they only have room for less then 5, I will fill their town up untill it's full and what remains stays in my stock.
I will release 10 FT in a neighbors town, if I:
a) get an in-game message telling me neighborX has released FT in my town or,
b) get a notification (while not playing) and I'm able to logon at that moment...
... to immediately return the favor. Most of the time they are still online, their town is free of FT and I can release 10 of them which they can then collect
For some of neighbors I know in which timezone they live, because they play when I'm http://www.motor-forum.nl/global/smileys/sleephappy.gif. For them I will release 5-10 FT in their town when I start http://www.motor-forum.nl/global/smileys/yawnee.gif and go to bed.
