Ok, this is just a random thought that ran across my mind, but does anyone else think it might be a nice idea to award extra acorns for particularly good tips that get over a certain number of "thumbs ups?" Like maybe an extra acorn for every 10 "thumbs ups" or something like that?

Confidence is that feeling you have right before you do something really stupid.

Sherri, in this case, I think <<10 " thumbs up " >> doesn't mean both hands up

PS Sorry, I try to joke. But I do not know how it sounds my joke in English, for a native speaker of English. I hope that does not sound bad.

Love the new way to earn acorns.

Justin has a wonderful sense of humor & it translates to English perfectly!

I like this acorn idea too.
