Yeah it does kinda suck, especially for the people who have just recently joined in the game. Remember, though, this is a game aimed at kids, particularly young kids, as it isn't too complicated, and very easy to acheive things. I have two young ones that absolutely LOVE the game, because it's something "they" can do (without Mom doing it for them). Most other games on CN are above their game-playing skill level.

If you haven't already, make sure you read the Tutorial in Notey, and check out Sparky's awesome Guide of the game and all it's features. That should help answer any questions you may still have about the game.

Enjoy!

Default trapped!

I just started playing last week. For the past few days, I have gotten no new chores to do. And, I can't do any favors, cuz my favor thingy is full. I can't use up a favor because I have gotten no new chores to do.

What is going on?

That happened to me two days ago. There was no new chores and my favor bar was full as well. I was so frustrated. I didn't play the game for more than 24 hours and then the next time I played, it was back to normal again. Not sure if it is gonna work in your case but give it a try. Also, try to avoid playing the game right before the everyday update, which is around midnight EST or 9pm PST. I think the program might iss the update if the game is on and that's probably what got me into trouble two days ago. Anyway, good luck

I try to always, always, always keep at least one of my favor spots open. At least twice now I haven't paid close enough attention and I filled it, finished my chores and didn't realize I still needed to do my daily chore. I try to keep just two friends' faces, and that's it. Each day when I do another favor, I have someone help me with one of my chores. That way I won't get "off."

The only thing it really affects is when I finish an Adventure with Bloo, I can't go unlock a mini-game right after. I'd have to wait until the next day when I do a favor to go unlock one.

THe game renews your chores with new onse if and only if all your chores are completed and you are logged off when the game update occures around 12pm EST. (Midnight)

On some occations if you start playing before midnight the game glitches and kicks you out with some error thingy around midnight. and then if you were playing a minigame, the minigame scores would reset.

So if you do not finish your chores in the first day you log on, (ie, you do 2 of the three chores) then you will be stuck with that third chore until it is completed. then you would have to wait till the next game day to get new chores.

Like vicks said, it is best to always keep one Favor spot open. to do this, when you log in, go do the easiest 2 chores, then for the hardest chore finish half of it then call a friend to finish it up. I usually keep 3 friends in my bar allowing me to call a friend each day even if I do not call a friend one day, I can call 2 the next day.

Several of us had experienced the same problem before and it was discussed in this thread (post #99-103). Monty has posted a detailed explanation of how that happened and the above is just part of it. I believe it'd be helpful if you go back and read the entire post

Default Friends Photo #81

I just finished off all the game levels added in 2006 (no more presents showing in the scores listings), and am corcerned that my one open space in the "Imaginary Friends" album is due to a glitch.

It's #81 (top right on page 21).

#80 is from the "Bloo looks for Dinosaur bones" adventure and I'm pretty sure that's the last adventure in that album.

Any player out there maticulous enough to know where #81 should be coming from?

It sounds like you have more bloo adventures to complete in order to finish that book, most of the bloo adventures are grouped together.
