Hi Bev649, this is a glitch of sending and receiving lives and it has affected both King games and non-King games. We believe that it's a Facebook glitch and the developers have notified them. We are all waiting for a fix.
They left me without friends for a long time. I have even appeared only in the weekly progress. they only accompany me in denize star dust, in the race of the planets and the dynamic duo. but here with you I feel more than accompanied; They are very nice. Greetings.
