Unlimited* Gift Cards - Not a hack or a cheat (we'll sort of a cheat but you have to work for it)

It would take forever to coordinate 100 new friend requests over and over again. Definitely not worth it for gift cards. And you would have no posse to roll with after the event.

Plus, you would be broke as hell in the gift bag department and come off as a real Scrooge McDuck.

Wow , so your Origin friends list is disposable eh? Mine has people I actually call friends and relatives, others have proven semi reliable tappers , naw I'll keep mine.

I have to admit that I did this. Sort of. I have 100 friends, most of whom I would not drop, they are loyal tappers. But there was one person who had yet to even collect a single gift card, clearly not playing. One day I was about 20 cards short of a prize. I had cleared all my presents/ bags and my next neighbor was about 10 hours away. I dropped the non player and added someone from my request list. Got that prize right away.

Actually Dave this is the correct method (not dropping everyone) but culling the inactive neighbors who have stopped playing either temporarily or Permanently. Consider it rewarding the active players

During this event I have no problem keeping an inactive player, as I still get 30 cards a day from them, and since gift bags are so scarce, and only pay between 1 and 3 cards, I figured was not loosing much and was thinking he might come back to the game (he was level 37, and had a lot of event items). But when I needed those few extra cards, that's when the knife fell.

I'm with Dave on this one, but this person is a level 12. I won't drop the person until after the Christmas event is over.the person was gunho on the goo points but then just fell off the game afterwards.

So I'm not the only person that thought about this. I've done it a couple times and almost have 50k GCs. Only one of my friends is a real friend so the other 99 are disposable. There are always new people to become friends with. I'm pretty new myself, started less than two months ago and will be level 38 if it came out now.
