It feels like they released too many early on and now have reigned it back too far.Rational judgement, now, at this very moment.
Virtuous action, now, at this very moment.

Willing acceptance - now, at this very moment - of what you can’t change3 -

Re: Sweet Treats promotionI want to thank and congratulate you for the excellent work on the current hummingbird hunt. Thousands of punters are spending hours browsing the site in the vain hope of finding another hummingbird. It was pure genius to let them find multiple birds over the first few days to get them thinking there would always be more to find. They never seemed to realise that there was a maximum rolling total that the programme wouldn't let them exceed, and that those who play every day would soon be reduced to finding only the one from the daily clue (except for the "bonus" days when we will let them have a couple more to keep them motivated).
I see you have continued previous practice in that virtually everyone will be 1 short of a prize in all sweet categories half way through the promotion, and it will drive them crazy trying to find the final sweet, when we know that only a few people will be allowed to do this, and that will be on the last couple of days of the promotion.
I see from your report that the promotion is driving the punters totally crazy on that well known forum for skinflints © - which, of course, is a major bonus.
Keep up the good work,
.

I have found FOUR hummingbirds but they won’t open. I get a message pop up saying “Whoa, you clicked too fast. Your collection failed Please refresh your page and try again.
This has happened on my ipad and my laptop.2
