Okay, so let me tell you about this Golden Blitz thing in Monopoly GO I got into recently.
Getting Started with the Golden Blitz
So, I was just playing Monopoly GO like usual, you know, rolling the dice, trying to build up my landmarks. Then I noticed this event pop up – the Golden Blitz. I’d heard people talking about it before, basically a short time when you can trade specific gold stickers. Usually, those gold ones are locked, you can’t just send them to friends whenever you want.
First thing I did was check which gold stickers were part of this specific Blitz. You gotta know what’s even possible, right? The game usually shows you which two are tradable for the event duration. I tapped on the event icon, and boom, it showed the two specific gold stickers for that day.
Checking My Album and Making a Plan
Next step, I dove straight into my sticker album. This is key. I needed to see two things: did I need either of the featured gold stickers? And, maybe more importantly, did I have duplicates of either of them that I could trade away?
Turns out, I needed one of them to complete a set! That always gets you a bit excited, thinking about the dice rolls and cash you get for finishing a set. I also saw I had like, three extras of the other gold sticker featured in the Blitz. Perfect! That meant I had something valuable to offer in a trade.
The Hunt for a Trade
Alright, so I knew what I needed and what I had. Now the tricky part: finding someone to trade with. This isn’t always straightforward. I started by checking in with friends I already had in the game. Sent out a few messages like, “Hey, got an extra [Sticker Name], need [Sticker Name] from the Blitz, wanna trade?” Sometimes you get lucky right away.
This time, my immediate friends didn’t have what I needed or didn’t need what I had. So, I had to broaden the search. I went to a couple of online communities where people talk about the game. You have to be careful here, just finding people who seem legit. I posted what I had and what I needed. Something simple like:
- Have: [Gold Sticker Name Duplicate] (Golden Blitz)
- Need: [Gold Sticker Name Needed] (Golden Blitz)
Then I waited. Scrolled through other people’s posts too, seeing if anyone needed exactly what I had and was offering what I needed. It takes a bit of patience, sifting through messages and posts.
Making the Trade Happen
After a bit, someone replied to my post! They needed my duplicate and had the gold sticker I was missing. We quickly confirmed we were both ready to trade. We added each other as friends in Monopoly GO. This part always makes me slightly nervous – you gotta trust the other person.
We agreed I’d send mine first. So, I went to my album, selected the duplicate gold sticker, chose their name from my friend list, and hit send. There’s a confirmation step, which is good. Sent! Then I waited. It’s usually pretty quick, but there’s always that moment of, “Okay, hope they send it back…”
And they did! A few moments later, I got the notification – they sent the gold sticker I needed. Went back to my album, and there it was. Success! It felt pretty good, honestly. Completed my set, got a bunch of dice. Totally worth the effort.
Final Thoughts on the Blitz
So yeah, that was my latest Golden Blitz experience. It’s a bit of a rush, trying to find the right trade in a limited time. My advice? Be prepared. Know what stickers are featured as soon as the Blitz starts, check your album immediately, and start looking for trades early. Don’t wait until the last hour. And just be sensible when trading with people you don’t know. Mostly, it works out fine, and it’s a great way to get those tricky gold stickers.
