Hi there, sorry for replying so late.

Lynda Hudson is not my real name, I use it in another game. Wanted to be Bellatrix on this Wiki from the start, but after my 6th name variation attempt still being taken, I just gave up and settled for LH. Now I found a way to check, if a username is available or not on Fandom, hence my name change.

Some stuff came up in RL, so I didn't make much progress in the game in the past few days. I mostly opened SN to send and collect gifts, plus to visit my friends. You're assumption was correct, I did use a Magisterium, but my results ended up being subpar. Despite the in-game name change, my Crafting Stations only had 58 charges... Better luck next time?

I've read some of your posts and replies on other threads and came to the conclusion, that your approach to the game is quite analytical. You are interested in numbers and algorithms, which I am not. Please don't take this the wrong way, not all people/players are the same. I never once counted the number of CIs I got from a visit. A couple of times I charged trophies instead of locations, to check if I get more CIs seemingly. The answer is no. I have like 80 friends, but on most of my visits I don't even get one per friend. Maybe I'll count them the next time. But right now I don't see any correlation between the visitors exp. lvl. or rep. lvl. and the CI drop. I think it's luck based (completely random).

As far as TTing goes, I am no master. It benefits my own as well as my friends' gameplay, so that's why I do it. I've read a couple of threads and figured most people want passes. Also some higher lvl. players stated in comments, that they only put fixers on their WL for the sake of their lower lvl. friends, others are annoyed by those who TT, but only send the same fixers all the time.

I like the higher level passes better, they are visually more pleasing to me, also the corresponding locations give more XP. If you TT frequently and/or have a lot of TTing friends, your GB will most likely be full. Since most of my friend are in different time zones than me, sometimes I can not prevent my GB from overflowing. When I put a CI on my WL, friends send it to me in record speed, so I have no trouble collecting them. Sadly I can't say the same about sending them. There were times, when I sent a CI shortly after receiving TYs for a passes, but did not get a Thanks for the CI. The intended player must have closed the game after emptying their own GB, or it got lost during others TT session. It would be so much better, if we could communicate with our friend in the game, or just see if they are "online".

I do notice, when You change your name in SN, but I didn't know you preferred NOT to be sent TYs, when you are in "Off" mode. I'll try to watch out for that, sorry.

My goal in SN right now, is to complete the quest (I find the main storyline interesting), collect the event avatars and reach lvl. 133 to unlock all the passes, so I can gift those too. Sending a higher level pass to a lower level player is not a problem, because when they unlock that specific location, they will be able to play more than like 5 times. I get a lot of Festive Lollipops, although I am nowhere near unlocking the Mill. I'm not complaining though.

Sorry for not being any help in your research. I hope you find others, who can give the input you need.

All I can offer are access passes...

At the end of my "short" reply, I would like to thank you again, for being a great and compassionate friend (I don't need anything right now TYVM). I wish you luck in reaching lvl. 100, you don't have a long way to go. Feel free to write to me here, if You are looking for something and I'm to clueless to interpret your in-game message.
