Wow, thanks for the flood of gifts...I guess you're time-traveling now, LOL! Sorry I can't reciprocate, but I'm playing on a Kindle, and the Kindle clock is not user-settable (so no time-travel for me). Believe it or not, I'm able to use all those winding-keys and springs, while working my way toward eventually getting onto the board for the Top-1000 'Collections' tab (only 2,145 more collections to go!). I recently made it onto the Reputation tab list, and am just two levels from making it onto the Experience tab (hopefully will get there within the next few days).

I see that your game profession is "Sage" (the star symbol) like me. When I "Hire" friends, I hire the Sages when playing the highest-value pictures. Each Sage you hire will give you a 10 percent boost for the experience-points payout for that picture (so it's one of those things that helps you levelup faster!). When your Reputation level gets up to a certain level (I forget exactly what level), you can hire up to five friends at once. So I hire five sages at once (i.e, a 50 percent total bonus!), then play a high-value picture, lather-rinse-repeat, until I run out of sages or run out of my hire quota (your quota for total friends that you can hire in a day is equal to your current Reputation level).
