Just want to let my neighbors know (the majority of my neighbors are also on here) that when I get eggs I will attempt to mark my territory in your town by forming the letter "M" (stands for the 1st letter of my name: Mitsu) with it since it didnt seem like there is no way to know who gave us eggs. I just hope receiving eggs will be easy lol Burnin TODI, lakooo, 847.63, LSLeong, @p003htb2, D'oh-tastrophe Inc., @neosec28

The @ is not working for you because you are getting the 'usernames' wrong. You are using their profile name. if you click on a forum members' profile you can find out their username e.g. d'oh incorporated should actually be D'oh-tastrophe Inc. That was (at)dohinc LSLeong I had a feeling as I was typing this that there would be at least one other doing the same thing! Oh and I win :point:

If you click on their user name and go to their profile, it'll show their ID. You might be able to hover over the user name with your mouse to display it if you're using a PC. Mine happens to be the same for both, but D'oh's is "dohinc" and Neo is "neosec28" for example Ugh! Peruhomer beat me!

And mitsuhoney, dogpiling on what Peruhomer and LSLeong have already said, you can tag somebody by using the full Reply window (the one you see when you hit the yellow Reply button), then click the little button with the @ symbol and the little figure of a person. That will bring up a pop-up window where you can start typing the name of the person you want to tag. The system will then bring up a list of similar usernames, and you can select the one you want. (It sounds like a lot of steps, but it's easy.) That's what I do when I'm not sure what somebody's official user ID is--I use touchscreen devices most of the time, so hovering isn't an option.

Kind of limited on what we can form without having thousands of eggs to spread around.

Right. some of us have been asking for a message system for ages. Its as simple as adding a mailbox deco, and a message box!
I think the names should appear on the handshakes too. It would make friend management easier for some of us as well.

I made the mistake of Putting everyone on 24 hour jobs, the like five minutes later I get the first job to start off the whacking day. Anyway I'm just going to be a day behind.

@p003htb2: No worries! I normally do put my characters on 24 hour tasks when there are no story quest to do, and I was JUST about to put them on 24 hours again last night when my friend texted me saying the Whacking Day update is out lol. I guess it was a close call for me. Spiffshine: Thanks! I wonder, can we be neighbors too?

Doh an M is to hard to make cause I didnt think the eggs would need as much space as they allow you lol...
But dont worry guys all the eggs I get I am giving to you, since my friends who play the game arent big time players...
