I'm also curious about what people do.

Passes are good when a limited amount is required (e.g. daily quest) - it seems wasteful to spend collection on that. It takes effort to hunt 5 CIs.

Another scenario when passes are preferrable is if a person sends a lot of passes and receives a lot of thank yous. For example, when I do my round of TTing, I can expect to end up with gift box with 500 random gifts if I leave it for 15 minutes to have dinner or whatever. I am aware that when I ask friends for passes they are free so if they got lost, it is not ideal, but at least CIs didn't get lost.

When I need a lot of passes and am staying near the tablet and checking often, I add collection items to wish list (and sometimes name change). As long as CIs are in the list, I monitor closely. Since I always wake up to full gift box, I ensure that my WL is empty before going to sleep.

In terms of sending, I used to ensure that each friend got the pass they wanted but after some discussions here and asking about advice, I started sending same list to everybody - I can send a lot more like that and everybody gets something they need.

Often, if I have time and if a friend doesn't often ask for passes, I do an additional lottery round: I will do an extra round for that friend and include 5 other people - first 5 that sent thank yous, since I know I won't overflow them. I can still send fast to group of 6. Or just send to that one friend if I have no idea who else is around.
