@sinthr Thank you so much for this! I'm starting to find them at a faster rate (in my opinion) ❤️

@sinthr I'll do that! Again, I want to thank you for putting this in the forums! It really helps❤️

@sinthr I'll start doing archives after I do my daily feeds. I also only look in the brown area as well. I use CTRL+A to highlight the Gobbler that way I'm not straining to see if the turkey is really there or not. Just makes it easier for me at least to see it (especially if it's in the decorated part of the screen or under an ad). Thanks!Edit: Just realized that I've been calling the poor Gobblers turkeys. 😋Pings (Thought you'd appreciate it. Sorry if you didn't want to be pinged. Please let me know if not.)@pooh @justagiannamoment @silvershadow@foreignors

Thank you for sharing the info! Also, for those who use the Ctrl + W quick feeding method, it doesn’t work for collecting Gobblers. Gobblers only count if they trigger a pop-up! 😊

@sinthr I like this way to find them when I am on my PC, I sometimes do that, but still prefer my normal screen (90%). Both my screens goes to 50%-125%, more or less than that they disappear, 'cause I use two normal size screens at the same time.I especially like to hunt while feeding, but I like to F5 (reload) the Strongroom page too, it has lots of white and it's a really short page.

XDI like the Bank, and the Inventory or my shop (when I don't have many items there). These are pages that are short and don't have many images 😃

@sinthr I've been doing a tactic I think is quite common.. Instead of worrying that I've missed a turkey, I click open 10-15 pages and press space-bar to quickly check for Gobblers. This way in that 15 pages, there must be at least one visible Gobbler! I do check again if the page refreshes but once I find a Gobblers in one of those 15 pages, I just feed normally for the unclosed pages. Erm, is this understandable? Like basically normal quick feeding using SnapLinks, but I scroll down to check for Gobblers, once one is found, continue feeding the pages then restart the 15 page cycle.. Oh! I find that highlighting the whole page with ctrl+a doesn't work too well for me, especially if the page has a wall of text, between the text and the Gobbler, it highlights both, making it a bit harder to notice?Haha, I don't quite know about zooming out of the page, you have to strain your eyes more this way in my opinion.Btw, you not only can use the scroll feature on the mouse, but click on the page and then press space-bar or the down arrow too.

True, but I like to keep on the same page 'cause I can get used to the images, so when a Gobbler appears I can easily spot they XDBut I guess if it's 2 pages you can easily get used to the images too 😋

@sinthr This really helped! I never knew there were gobblers in the brown parts of the pages-I only thought they were in the white parts.
jirachiwishmaker • 3 November 2020 at 7:49 PM
@sinthrOMG you're so right, I do look at the bottom and right side brown parts cause that's where most people completely will miss the turkey. And I tend to find that finding it on the white parts kinda hard cause you gotta be fast in clicking it, or you will completely miss it too.
ravensong • 3 November 2020 at 7:57 PM
@jirachiwishmaker, They appear at the bottom left side of the the brown area? I've never found any so I've stopped even looking there. I usually find them at the bottom on the right side of the brown area. Hmmm...@hocuspocus, Noticed you were looking for Gobblers. Sinthr's method is quick and effective! 😃

@ravensong No thank you. I can find my own way.

@sinthr ah, the resizing tip is very helpful ^^ i tend to find more gobblers on the white/side settings side myself, but i guess it's different for everyone ^^

I have a dark mode extension that I normally use at night, but during November on EC I use it practically 24/7. It greatly helps with seeing Gobblers. If anyone uses Opera, the extension is simply called "Dark Mode" with a moon icon.https://prnt.sc/vd9yd9

@sinthr I'd love a hint on your faster method! I really need to get going on this or I'll never catch up xD@sparklefox Oh gosh, that dark extension is amazing. Will have to see if I can find something similar available for Firefox. Thanks for the suggestion!

@sinthr Its funny .. I have a much harder time finding it on the bottom grey part (never see them, lol!), or the brown sides. I see them better in the white. Different styles for different people! Resizing did help enormously though, that did the trick more than anything else. ❤️
jirachiwishmaker • 4 November 2020 at 1:24 PM
I'm manually looking, searching, and clicking, is there a faster method, yeah open as many tabs as you like and refresh the page, or scroll thru the pages, as they do spawn, but my eyes are faster then my clicks, so I can say I've missed many due to lack of my hand clicking on it before it fades to dust.

@sinthrWhen I'm scrolling I gotta remind myself to click on the back key often cause I would see it, but then I'm already going onto the next page too. Yeah I think people's eyes are very different, and I can see it on the brown parts because that blue feathers on the tail and when the page is like just opening up I feel like there's a movement on the page which is the turkey spawning on it, well that's how I feel like there was a movement on the screen that I was aware of, but where I just have to look is all. You know who's the master of all this, it's budgie, LOL

With this computer I use dark mode to help find the few have just being on here for a bit. On my previous one always found them without. In fact, never used dark mode till this one on any thing and now I prefer it more. Preferred hanging out in shops like Thief Shop where there is not much popping up to look at. After looking for a bit I always cleared my history and stuff I just felt it helped 😃Many on the boards are always leaders during these. So not scammers. Just takes time. I'm not able to this time around due to my schedule and health.
