I have been doing mysterious melody everyday and giving out some pretty nice items but I have almost never received anything back, and the people never even say anything. I think this is kind of messed up, personally. I realize it is the season of giving but I have done this so many times and no one ever does anything back. I feel like you shouldn't be able to sign up if you aren't going to participate... it isn't fair.
I'm sorry you've had such a negative experience with it so far. I'd say hang in there, a lot of people participate in the event really nicely. Either way... Happy luminaire!
Yeah, its really discouraging but I'm going to keep trying. I just hope that in some way I am making them happy. Even if they don't want to participate. Thanks for the gift box too. <3
since there's no limit to how many items, you can send something cheapish to start, and if they respond in kind or maybe even give anything at all you can give them what you planned. You can't change your MM for the day I think, so the day is still wasted, but you did give them something, just not "something nice" that's "something nice enough to bother you".
, I feel you. I send something small but nice, like a plushie, right when the clock changes and MM resets, and if I come home the following morning to gifts, I send more. But I've been having partners who send nothing at all, and it's discouraging. Feels like some people sign up for MM just to get presents, probably to sell off right away.

Thanks for the advice guys. I'll keep trying. <3
I have had this same problem... I made the mistake of assuming my partner would be a good sport, but I forgot anonymity on the internet doesn't usually produce generous people.. Oh well, some rude person just received about 3 nice little presents..
Sorry, that must suck. D:
It's not a big deal, I didn't give away anything I'd miss. Still kinda rude.. There should be a 1 present requirement to keep people from being bullies.
I agree, but it would be hard since it is anonymous. However, it makes me not want to participate in mysterious melody anymore when I am giving out really nice gifts and 3 partners in a row will give nothing.
My account is old, but this is my first time being back around the holidays and so this is all new to me, Do you only get one partner a year? And yeah.. I'm probably not going to participate again, or at least test the waters with a cheap present before sending anything actually nice.
No you get a new partner every day. Yeah, I try and test too, but I have been fooled before.
That would be great, but then I would probably not be a very nice partner as I have final exams tomorrow XDDD
I haven't had a single partner play back yet, and I've been joining daily. It does suck and I think it needs to be fixed somehow. There have been numerous suggestions, but I'm not sure which ones would be possible.
There's enough of all y'all in this thread by now you could organize your own private little MM just for the laughs. Then you'd might have some real fun with people you like (or might end up liking, new friends are good!) or who at least have a sense of fun and fairness together.
(greedy not necessarily = bully, so that reads weird to me btw)
Someone would still have to lead it, though!

...why ping only me?
You were the one who suggested it. :P It would be a huge, job though, unfortunately. I appreciate the thought, but wouldn't impose like that.
I think it is a great idea. :P
