If you turn off notifications as suggested above please be aware that you will turn off notifications for all requests, not just the ones that annoy you. Some players need lots of lives. I easily went through 200 this weekend. You can do accept all and that player will get one life and your inbox will be cleared. That'sโฆ
This happens to me sometimes too. Often it is after my game freezes or needs a refresh but I don't know what could be causing lives to go missing. Not much you can do besides build them up again.
This is nice for new players. In #6 you suggest using a lollipop hammer to creat a color bomb to take out your last jelly. Instead just use the lollipop hammer on your last jelly. Easier and more foolproof.
