Hi there,

My board was unlocked for a brief moment on Aug. 2nd. It was locked intermittently prior to the OD update. There were ghost charges on Venice and I was able to get rid of those as it is the only picture that anyone has been able to charge. I followed the suggestions outlined by PrinAnne and others.

I will make a list and post it on your wall. Of course I cannot tell if there are sleuth ghost charges on any pictures.

There is 1 sleuth charge on gem match. 2 profession icons are still visible on each of my 4 puzzles although when I tap on them they disappear so I can't tell which friends left those charges.

Playing off the ghost charges has worked for some post OD locked boards. Others, not so much.

Pretty much I have adjusted my game accordingly. If a lbs friend's board is open at gifting time then I send them a ce from the mill...even if that isn't on their WL. I always check the status of LBS boards before gifting...most of those with LBS have figured out the mill/library restrictions but some have not. If a board is locked and the player has only mill/library items on their WL, then I send a token or arrow instead.

The tricky part is CIs. Some (like the whales and gingerbread man) cannot be sent to a locked board because CEs from the library are needed to combine those collections.

If an item is to be found in the library or mill due to a quest it cannot be sent to a locked board, even if it is normally found in another picture/puzzle and does not require CEs from the library to combine its collection.

Hope this info helps

Cheers S
