Re: Antique Road Trip: American Dreamin'

I've been culling my list.  I started off with 150 or so, I'm down to around 75.

I've been keeping track each week.  I give at least one key to anybody on my list asking for keys.  Then I hand out keys to those who reciprocate.  It doesn't have to be even-Steven.  I know some peopel don't have that much time to spend on the internet.  But if somebody's antique rating has gone up a lot and they haven't sent even one key all week to me, they're toast.

Re: Antique Road Trip: American Dreamin'

Wendy -- There should be a minus sign (white in a red circle or vice-versa) next to the item on your Watch List.  Just click that to remove the item.  I keep track of the keys that Wendy and Travoltas give me.  I rarely see them with red !s so I usually end up giving those to ShagCat.

I want to cull my list too.  I'm hoping for an update this week.  If we don't get one I think I'll just start removing names.  I'm guessing neither of you accepts new friend request?

Re: Antique Road Trip: American Dreamin'

I've only accepted 3 friend requests since the last update way back when.  All 3 were from people I knew and 1 of those deleted me.  Other than that, I decline.  I've already got the achievements for friends.  If people cull me from their list and I feel like I need more friends, then I'll start accepting friends again.

Re: Antique Road Trip: American Dreamin'

I getting tired of the auction DQ's, but sure love the crazy amounts people are willing to pay me.  Today I sold an American Achievement medal for 1200; true strike for 500; man on the moon stamp for 776; white house stamp for 1000; silver lazy susan for 1150; and a lace flower for 8050.

Re: Antique Road Trip: American Dreamin'

I have so much stuff to sell but I'm just too lazy to list it anymore  I just go get my star, give some keys, then get out of there again, usually.  Right after midnight is a good time to list though, people like me want to get it done. 


No matter how much I complain, I'm grateful for all I have.

Re: Antique Road Trip: American Dreamin'

I "owe" so freakin many keys that I'll never catch up!  The only things I've sold recently are posh pashminas and leisure portraits.  Those always fetch a good price.  I have tons of stuff I'd like to get rid of but I just can't work up the ambition to list anything.

I don't accept friend requests.  I feel sort of guilty about it but I want fewer friends, not more.

Re: Antique Road Trip: American Dreamin'

Do you let the friend requests just sit there unanswered or do you decline.  I was declined the other day, made me feel bad  I'd rather be ignored, lol.  For my Shagcat game I look at available people every now and then and ask one if I like their name.  The other games I have too many friends.  When I get home I'm going to delete a lot.  You don't have to worry about giving me keys.  Sometimes I give other people keys and sometimes I just dump them all on you and Tirama.  I donl't really need anything, but it's free  I wonder if we'll have an event any time soon.  Nobody needs gold.
Sometimes I'll use a keepsake and do a half hour of daring deerstalkers.  Only one film and they sell for 6500.  Same with the scarf, it actually sells a little higher, but I cash in the hat collection more often.

Re: Antique Road Trip: American Dreamin'

I need help with my DQ.  Shot of France.  Can somebody do the buy and resell thing with me?  List for 100,000.

Re: Antique Road Trip: American Dreamin'

I've got plenty, It's almost 7am I'll list one for 1 hr and another for 6
oops, just looked at the time stamp.  It was last night.  I just noticed the time shows for me as CST.  Who knows, maybe I'll sell one at 100000

Re: Antique Road Trip: American Dreamin'

Thanks, wendy.  Lily listed the DQ for me.  What a surprise, nobody outbid me.

Listing things to sell during these DQ's is like playing the lottery.  All you need is an item and a dream.  Somebody has bid 10,000 on the Hagia Sophia I listed.

Regarding friends, I decline them.  I don't need all those e-mails cluttering up the mailbox.

Regarding keys, I'm mostly asking for keepsakes.  I figure, should this game ever get updated and I actually play it again, I'll always be able to use a keepsake and not have to worry that I'll get interrupted during the 30 minutes it's active.  Or if I just can't standing playing for 30 minutes, I can bail whenever because I'll still have a pile of keepsakes.
