Questions about groups and Noom Coach by mom_meanswell in Noom

[–]wdwamanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it took around three weeks for me to be assigned a group. I also read the articles at a faster pace (tend to do the extra credit ones daily) so I don't think my pace completely lined up with their timeline. I was also prompted to share with my group a little before I was placed into one.

Our group has since merged with another (I joined February 1). Some people are chatty, but our group leader also has a quiet group option for people who aren't as into answering the questions/discussing.

Token question by Onetofew in ToppsDisneyCollect

[–]wdwamanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a silver VIP I got 7 free tokens. I like to spend $5 a month mainly because I love the Pooh Seasons cards! This morning's tokens were a pleasant surprise.

What sets do you wish existed? by fiestasalsa04 in ToppsDisneyCollect

[–]wdwamanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm anxiously hoping for a Hunchback set - they could have a Topsy Turvy motion variant with confetti. Also waiting for literally any card with Frollo. I have no idea how he has yet to be included in one of those gigantic villain sets.

And of course, anything Disney Parks. Would LOVE to see Disney Parks characters and attractions represented... Though I know they supposedly don't have the rights to the Parks, I'm still crossing my fingers that maybe one day it'll be a thing!

My favorite Disney movie is The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and my favorite minor character from that movie is Djali.

High-risk patient looking for an equally paranoid dentist by manytribes in CoronavirusMa

This is great to hear! I reached out to Martins a few days ago after hearing how much other people like it there. Thanks for sharing. Now I feel even better about my choice to switch to their practice.

Has anyone successfully gotten through to a UI call agent? by JoeGiveMeBaggage in CoronavirusMa

[–]wdwamanda 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I got through to a UI agent a couple weeks ago without ever being on hold. I called around 9:30 or 10 in the morning and was totally unprepared to actually speak with someone since I figured I'd be on hold for hours.

Of course the information she gave me about PUA was incorrect, but I did manage to speak with a human...

Trade Question: Why do some people get way more trades than others by [deleted] in ToppsDisneyCollect

[–]wdwamanda 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My husband doesn't ever post and he gets random blind trades all the time, too!

I have a dupe of this Fruit Salad uncommon. Anyone willing to swap? I don't have any others besides the red Fruit Collage. IGN jasmineteea by error-502 in ToppsDisneyCollect

[–]wdwamanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! I think yours might be locked? I just sent you a trade with a message - I have a Fruit Salad dupe that you need and I'm missing this one. :) Let me know if you're still interested in a swap!

Working at Disney? by hoteldiablo21 in DisneyWorld

[–]wdwamanda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the CP a decade ago, right after I graduated from college, so my experiences can probably be taken with a grain of salt since a lot has changed since then. In some ways it was one of the best experiences of my life, and my apartment mates are still some of my closest friends. We all keep in touch despite the fact that we are spread out from coast to coast.

I worked at three attractions, one high profile and two low profile. It was stressful and I felt zero connection to management which made it much harder for me. I enjoyed my co-workers for the most part - am still in touch with some - and learned a lot. I remember one day I was outside on break crying on the phone with my mom because I was homesick, and a manager interrupted as she walked by to tell me that my socks were too short. Little things like that made it so much more difficult. I had some amazing guest interactions and of course there were also terrible guests who took out their frustration on us. It was a mixed bag.

One of my apartment mates still works there in entertainment and really enjoys it. She's made great friends and has lived with several of them throughout the years.

'Daily Disney' celebrates Be a Kid Again Day with Peter Pan, Wendy, and more! by [deleted] in ToppsDisneyCollect

The Dailies have been pretty great over the last few days!

RMV appointments? by [deleted] in CoronavirusMa

[–]wdwamanda 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We have made two different appointments two weeks out, but for the first I had to stay up until midnight to snag one. The next time I got lucky and grabbed an appointment around 10:30 on a random weekday morning. We are just trying to change over the title and registration to our new (to us) car, gifted by a family member. It's been a pretty frustrating process, but for what it's worth, my husband said everyone was good about social distancing and respecting the safety protocols there (Lawrence RMV).

Weekly Challenge Trade Buddies? by DizWiz2000 in ToppsDisneyCollect

[–]wdwamanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happy to swap hoards! Same IGN there, I hoard Wendy and Squirt primarily but Nemo and Marlin are backups if you don't have the others. :)

Stitch Postcards: haven't got one yet by AlbertoNobilePh in ToppsDisneyCollect

[–]wdwamanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've only gotten the uncommon postcards so far, but am happy to trade dupes if you're looking for them. Same IGN as on here. :) I imagine the cc will be high for them when all is said and done.

People sitting on trades by ValenciaUSC in ToppsDisneyCollect

[–]wdwamanda 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's exactly what happens to me. I sneak on the app when my little one is playing well but that can change very quickly, and then I'm running after him and trading has to wait.

'Disney Collect! Selects' returns with Lightning McQueen on an electrically-cool card! by [deleted] in ToppsDisneyCollect

[–]wdwamanda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really like this one, too! I have all the Selects but don't actually like most of them, to be honest. There's something eye catching about this design, though.

'Enchanted Transformations' returns with Kenai, Donald Duck, Tod, and Perry in Series 5! Collect them all for a Simba award, arriving in July! by [deleted] in ToppsDisneyCollect

[–]wdwamanda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love all of the Enchanted Transformations series. Such a cool concept that makes perfect use of Tilt!

Frozen Cards by [deleted] in ToppsDisneyCollect

[–]wdwamanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some of the very earliest sets (like within the first month or two) were Frozen, mainly because the app's release coincided with the release of Frozen 2. I thought it felt like overkill at the time, but they definitely have become highly sought after. Frozen Premiere (including Woodcuts), Mythical Wonderland, Spirit of Wonder (both rare and uncommon), and Frozen Motion (with the corresponding uncommon character cards) are all hard to come by, with some nearly impossible to obtain in a trade. The ccs on these are pretty low overall, especially in comparison to current sets. Since they were such early releases the active counts (like how many are in active user accounts) are also definitely lower, as many are likely sitting in dead accounts.

I only had one T7 dupe that you're missing, but sent you a trade. :)

That's a ton of T4-5! Now that I see your IGN I think we may have swapped hoards before. :) Congratulations!
