That is good news about your "not receiving lives" all it means now is that you need your friends to continue to send you lives. As I explained to Anita the more friends you have in your list the more likely it is you will receive lives. I think you should try sharing your friend link in the two discussions I linked for @parlady99 and also click on any links already shared.
Also don't forget to click on @parlady99 friend link above.
The missing level rankings/leader board is definitely the new normal at the moment. Please check the discussion I linked for you on page two of this discussion.
The option to give lives before or after playing a level is back! Nice! @Alienscar @Mickeyat50 @parlady99
