So I just lost all the gifts that people sent me yesterday because I can't accept them now.
...
Do you think I should report this to the devs? I've never had this happen before.That's actually the way notifications have always worked for me. But fear not! Your gifts are not lost.
Go to the 'Send Free Gifts' link in the Friends dropdown menu. On the same bar that says SEND GIFTS, you'll see a button on the right that says 'Claim my gifts' with a red box saying how many gifts you have waiting for you. Click the link and claim away.![]()
I didn't know you could do that. I just tried it but it said I have claimed three of my 10 daily gifts and I have no claimable free gifts. The three I've claimed were sent sometime this morning. So I don't know where all those gifts from yesterday went!
EDIT: Another weird thing: it's letting me send free gifts to all my friends right now. I always send free gifts shortly after the day is over (4 PM for me since I'm on Alaska time) so usually around 4 PM unless I'm doing something in which case I do it later that evening. And I sent gifts to all my friends yesterday a little after 4 so why is it letting me send at 11:17 AM (Alaska time)??
Dot, how far along are you in the Haunted territories? I'm currently in the pupmkin patch, so I'll switch to brie just before I get to the trick and treat mice. @everyone else: are the trick, treat, or Mousevina mice any that we'll have to catch.
High fives Dot on another awesome catch. 4 down, 6 to go.
How are all the other teams doing?

Me too Though I'm feeling rather unhelpful since you caught three mice so far and I only caught one XD

Okay, so I'm officially part of shastastwin's team now. I got the notification the second time you sent it, I guess. Now after the first prankster. Let the fun begin!

Don't feel bad, wolf, I've caught zero of the seven pranksters my team has caught so far.
EDIT:
Ok, so it's after 4 PM here (the end of the MH day in Alaska time) and I went to claim candies and bait off people's profiles and also to send free gifts to my friends. When I went to send the gifts, the claim gifts button said I had 7 unclaimed gifts! Which, by the way, did not appear in my notifications. So I claimed them and I'm guessing that those were the ones I thought I had lost from yesterday evening.
I don't know. Maybe it was just a glitch and it's fixed now.
So I just figured out that you can only catch certain mice with spooky charms...

Don't want anyone to feel bad.
“Safe?” said Mr. Beaver; “don’t you hear what Mrs. Beaver tells you? Who said anything about safe? ‘Course he isn’t safe. But he’s good. He’s the King, I tell you.”
I now have nine Cobwebs. I already bought the Ambush skin so I can either buy the Count Sentinel skin or Zugzwang's Nightmare skin. I haven't decided yet. Either way, I'm planning to sell it on the Market for gold in a month or two. I'll probably sell the Costumed Ambush skin as well.
I have 140 candies! I haven't decided what all to spend them on. Maybe a couple more Gauntlet potions since I can now hunt in there! Some random crafting supplies probably. Some Stale SB if I feel like it. Probably several RB potions. Maybe a Wicked Gnarly potion or two. Some charms maybe, but I doubt it. I'm not a huge fan of charms. The Spooky Charms didn't do anything that I could tell. I have a couple hundred Luck charms and some 70-odd Power charms but I have yet to use them. I'll probably spend most of my candies on RB potions and crafting ingredients.
Are there any charms that it would be wise for me to get for the future?
nah: see my post above about the spooky charms. I'm not sure how much they will help you after the event is over however.

Whoops!Spoilerincluding the spider mouse which we are working on
I did not catch the

Hey, you're helping! Just think how hard it would be if we had to do it alone. Besides, neither of us is having much luck with our current mouse.
Well my team pretty well crushed this event. We're on our last mouse.
We were only stalled on the fact that a couple of us were in the Corn Maze and had to progress to the Haunted Manor/Pumpkin Patch.
But we never got any of the final mice (Trick/Treat/Mousevina) so I don't know if that's going to be the case for everyone or not. Several do require Spooky Charms.
By the way, as a head's up, this is the only time I find this feature useful, but it will let you know if you have the right setup/are in the right location to catch the mouse you need. Click on the link next to Effectiveness just under your trap setup. (It'll say something like Strong or Good with Whine.) You'll see this...
That is all the mice you can attract/catch with your current setup. If you play around with the cheese and spooky charms, you'll see which mice you can catch that way as well. We did have one mouse, the Mummy Mouse, that required us to be in the Pumpkin Patch. But that was it. The rest have been in the Haunted Manor and/or Corn Maze.
I hope Digs or Lia gets my invite, we could sure use their help!
I got the notification the second time you sent it, I guess.
I am strongly suspicious that while all of the invites I sent out worked perfectly, something is wrong with the invite system. For those of you who are still trying to grab your fellow hunters (stwin and wolf), you may need to send them a PM so they know to watch for the group invite. It seems to either not go through on occasion or disappear if it's not accepted right away.
ETA: Just snagged the Golem Mouse, got our box of goodies from the King, and we started over again.
I was suspecting it. Last night I removed the invites and resent them... and I just pmed them both as you suggested. Though I know too Digs wasn't going to be online much this weekend...
edit @ Dot, yes our current mouse is giving us issues... though my running out of spooky charms is NOT helping
edit 2: @FK I think your list on stwin's team is slightly outdated

Fixed.
It may be too late for this, but consider a couple people are either not interested in being in a group or just not getting the invite, it'd be nice if we could somehow consolidate the three groups with 2-3 people into two groups. That way you all would be more likely to catch mice you need and complete the group event.

Yeah, I'm just using brie and buying the Spooky Charms when I need to with Halloween cheese.

That'd be great, but I don't think it'd work. I can kick team members, but I don't think I can kick myself and even if I could it may just mean that some of us would have to start from scratch
(PS how do you catch a spider mouse )
