This is not an April Fool's Day posting. Seems that my gifting for collection items is open, but not the freebie combination items. I ALWAYS do the freebies first and then the collection items and use the greying out as a signal I am done, and the disappearance of the grey as the "okay" I can start gifting again. Anybody else?
What's on your mind?

Current Major Glitch Discussion
The game has now cancelled two Magic Crystals. I had enacted one several days ago, but yesterday I noticed it wasn't working. I thought I was still within the 10 days, but thought maybe not. So, I activated another one yesterday.
Today I logged in and that one is no longer active either. So, I have now blown two of these, and G5 is removing them from my active talismans.
I sent in a ticket about this today.
I play on Mac.
G5 incident #2191784 has been opened since July 8 and was the last time I heard from ANYONE at G5, even though I have been asking for updates. Not a single person from technical support has bothered to contact or update the incident. This is severely impacting my ability to play a major aspect of the game which is the ability to send gifts - Free gifts.
I have close to 1000 friends. I typically send free gifts daily starting in alpha order A-Z. As I approach the names in the about 840 range - either A-Z OR Z-A, the game stops sending gifts.
Other than wait on G5 Tech Support to reach out to me (4th day waiting now) - is there anyone here that knows how to escalate issues up the food chain at G5?
Not to be a grump or anything... but I achieved 502 Moroccan roses and the chest will not open... I played an additional round and now have 505 - NOPE... still won't open!!!!
Is anyone else experiencing this issue?
Never mind. Sent feedback and found that someone else has already turned this issue in to G5 - they are aware and are working on the issue.
Thanks.
Good morning,
Just after I first started playing this morning I got a message popup that said there were important changes and the game needed to be restarted, which it automatically did. Now I notice that in every scene there are these cardboard boxes with lids/designs - and every time you play the scene you get 8 or 9 of these boxes. The boxes have no name and when you click on the box to get more information it just says "0 You can find them in any available magical photo."
I've not seen this before, but then I've only been playing for about 1 1/2 years... maybe someone with more experience can speak to this anomaly?
Well, just another mini update just now... no more boxes... so nevermind:)
After the mini-update that gave me the ability to spend crystals to send Easter eggs (current event CEs):
I haven't visited anyone because of all the issues/glitches that arrived with the last event. Now that the new event is here...are the issues cleared up or are they still lingering?
Thanks!
The last few days there were additional crashing issues which has now resolved and I'm able to visit those friends who i couldn't earlier. How about for the rest of you?
But do nothing to fix our visiting problems so I am done with reporting, as I'd rather keep my activated Artifacts!
Not sure if this is an issue that needs fixing BUT since the glitch fixing update I visited my friends without crashing for all who had installed the update just fine. However a friend mentioned that there were no marks on any of her pics she was clearing and ask me to charge those pics which I did at 6:20 PM.
I visited her out of order to do so and this morning was just absentmindedly running rows of friends visiting when I opened her board at around 7AM. It showed she had 10 available checks and none stuck on the pictures from last night.
I placed 10 new ones closed her board and reopened it to see they were there. I went back to the games of other friends I visited and they too had 10 available this morning.
Several glitches have been reported, and we have several Discussions in progress.
These are all in the “Current Major Glitch” section of Discussions.
Several players have stated that G5 is aware and is working on a fix, but with so many things happening at once, and with a history of them fixing one thing and breaking another, I think we should continue to discuss our observations.
We all benefit from sharing information so please join in.

Strange thing – Anonymous Award Charges

Visiting checks from last Monday’s visits not clearing

Bug when charging
https://the-secret-society.fandom.com/f/p/4400000000000362603
10 March 2022: Edited to change discussion title from "February 2022 Glitches" to "February-March 2022 Glitches". Since the OP, G5 released one "bug fix" update for all platforms (1.45.6901); an extra for iOS (1.45.6902); and the regular new event update for all platforms (1.45.7000 on 9 March).
I managed to visit and charge the Awards of 8 friends this morning and then I found that the visiting checks hadn't reset and the checks were still there from last Monday. Oh well that was short lived! A friend had gifted me the last 3 collection items to get a Triton's Treasure so that has been totally wasted.
Since this morning, Secret Society will not open on my Windows Laptop.
Problems began with Windows and Apple yesterday, when all of a sudden Secret Society would behave differently (longer loading times, freezing after every click); other games are ok. The Game opens on my iPad, but shows the same strange signs. Anyone else? Very frustrating indeed.
I visit about 140 friends daily and drop all 10 charges, next day I just pick up where I left..some days I don't visit at all. Recently I noticed charges are sticking for more than 24hrs, did they change something? I visit a friend that I have not visit for more than 24hrs and still can't charge it, just get the daily bonus and I can see my old charges still there.
As I was writing this post, the game started crashing on one particular friend as was mentioned in another post, but my main issue is with charges sticking for way too long :)
I was clearing check marks on my awards, and 5 of them were from Anonymous. This has not happened in years. I think it means that after the person visited, they deleted me as a friend (or vice versa). I haven’t deleted anyone lately, so I’m at a loss as to what happened. Any ideas?
While I'm able to visit most friends, there is a problem while visiting a couple of them. The game crashes (on both windows as well as iOS devices). Anyone else facing this problem?
A friend pointed this out to me and I've since found out that it's true, but it's no good reporting this to G5 because all they do is take back your game to when you WERE getting 3, and you lose your consecutive days to get another Magic Crystal and if you have a Magic Crystal and any other Artifact activated, you lose those as well so it is not worth reporting anything anymore.
I know a lot of players have had this problem, but still go on visiting because of the experience and other benefits they earn from doing so, but I wanted all my friends to know that I AM visiting them but the visiting checks are not remaining once I go back to my desktop.
Yesterday I was able to visit 103 friends from Sh to Zz and from Ad through to Ci. From another Ci onwards the visiting checks did not stay. So today I started from the Ci whose visiting checks had not stayed yesterday, but ALL the visiting checks of my visits today have not stayed.
It will be interesting to visit those friends whose visiting checks DID stay, again to see whether new visiting checks will now stay. I visited one or two of them today, after completing my Tuesday's visiting, and my visiting checks are still there. I have reported this to G5.
I was just in this Forum for a few minutes, turned off my WiFi as I always play offline and was greeted with this screen. As you can see my Special Gem Match is still locked and there is no icon down the right-hand side for the competition. There is no Jewelry Box either and I was greeted with what I had collected divided up from the tree.
So I came out of the game, turned my WiFi back on and went back into the game and I was greeted with the message "We are happy that you are back" with an award of 750 coins and yet I have never missed a day for years! Is there anywhere on my desktop where I can see whether it has been reinstated?
Now when I go back into the game it says I've played Special Gem Match and have up to 37/500 of the Mermaid's combs.
Needless to say I have reported the matter to G5.
There are now 163 and four more added with each new event. All except 12 of the newer ones (100 total as of today) require levels of 200+.
Sorry, I probably added this in the wrong place. 🙄
