The Giants have favored you and instead of spinning thread you spun 98 Fibers into 14 Strings (-14 energy).

Are you there, Gods? It's me, TE.
I don't mean to be ungrateful but... I was trying to make General Fabric and thus needed thread, not string. =/ Am I missing something here? Is there a way to turn your kindness into fabric?

  • there's an upgrade card that lets that happen sometime--maybe you bought it and forgot? i did :)

  • I had the same thing happen to me, only it was 500 fiber. TWICE in a row! Used up all the fiber I had at the time and I had to go brush more.

    Come to find out it was an upgrade card I mindlessly purchased to get it out of the way. Here is another wish that we could refunds on our cards when we hate them. Or even no refund, I'd settle for a take back and lost imagination to not have that happen again.

  • Maybe they could let us use string to make fabric also so it's not a problem when it happens.  Or a way to unstring the thread (for no energy loss).

  • Tibbi, maybe put that in the ideas forum? That'd be a nice solution.

  • Yep, I certainly don't feel favored when this happenes to me. I feel like the Giants are having a good joke!

  • I did NOT buy the card.  I could see no benefit in paying to be denied threads when I needed them.  It could be that at some point in the future this might be desired but I see no benefit to buying such a card now.

    The first time my garden broke String was required to restore it.  String is no longer required.  That was pretty much my only need for string and even then, I needed thread more often than string.  I may be required for some furniture that I have not yet made.

  • You do currently need string for pictures/wall decorations, hanging decorations, and rugs...though not much for any of them.

    I suspect there will be more need for string in the future...to make other things.  At least I hope there is.

  • It's a bit of a bother but you SHOULD be able to sell the string at auction and use the proceeds to buy the thread you need.
