Sorry, I got sidetracked and forgot about this.

Take a moment to look at the available Talismans you have in your inventory so you can decide what you want to activate for long term. Diamond Horseshoe (finding items), Valentine's Amulet (reduce energy required), Amulet of Santa (or you may want to save these for actual events), energy recovery talisman (such as the Holiday Talisman. Solemnity Talisman or Angel Wings), Magister's Amulet (experience), Time Talisman (add 60 seconds - good for Gem Match challenges), and Magic Crystal. If you need coins, you can add a Treasure Map. Once you know exactly which talismans you want to use, you can start. You may want to make a list.

1. Click on one of you desktop awards to open it. You will have the screen that show how long before you can collect it again. LEAVE IT OPEN.

2. Go to the settings where you can adjust the date. You need to decide how far into the future you want to go. However, you will be locked into those talismans for that amount of time. Go ahead and go wild and go for 3, 4, 6 months into the future. (You should make sure to close all other computer programs so that it doesn't screw anything up.)

3. Go back to SS, close the award and activate ALL of the talismans that you want to run.

4. As soon as all of the talismans are running, OPEN ANOTHER DESKTOP AWARD. (This is very important. Otherwise, when you go back to the present, your awards won't be ready to collect for that 6 months!)

5. Go back to your time settings and set it back to the present date and time. When you go back to SS, close the award. All of your talismans will have that many days of running time now.

 CAUTION: If there is an event running, DO NOT go beyond the date of the ending date of the event.

 Let me know if you have any question
