That's the way. Also, anyone wothout a tablecloth at least one below you, anyone who always seems to have a full table, anyone who doesn't visit (of course), anyone with a crude name, anyone not seeming to progress at your pace, any you wrote to but they never replied ... it's easy to trim half of them once you get going
Well, having a red cloth makes most of friends list goners, even some people in the upper part (one kid removed all decorations from his tavern while apparently having them bought!). Full table - harder to track, from what I manage to track only 2 or 3 classify as no-tavern (one with me stuck inside XD). Crude name - well, look at me, is my name crude? I say yes XD Doesn't visit - dam devs, they can't get the app to download the entire history, just 80 last entries without any "more" button, this is not enough to keep serious track on who does visit me, who does aid me, and whose taverns did I visit (more, tavern button in app history is always the same regardless of tavern state - it's expensive to update all of them though, so it's understandable), also this makes me more generous to my 'hood because 10 to 30 people do aid me during the day out of 70, and I can't always ram the remaining 40 since some aid me *occasionally* and I don't want to repay aid with offense. And finally, "any to who I wrote but they never replied" would drop my only helper with goods, for some reason they don't reply to me even when I say "where to drop FPs". Nice set of advices tho, but should be taken with a grain of salt, or else I risk becoming friendless XD
