Question about shards. So before I had to reinstall MC and lost my progress, I was getting Trina requests for shards. It looked like I was collecting bunches of them but I could never find them or figure out how to give them to Trina to complete the quest. Suggestions?

Go to the room under the belfry, that is where Tina hangs out with her wolves, and click on Tina.  You should get her quests back then.

Trina is greedy, so while it may have seemed like you were getting a lot of shards, you may not have gotten enough. When you click on the Trina icon it will show you how many shards you have as well as how many you need. When you have enough shards you will see a checkmark, and when you complete the other part of the quest you will get the complete message .

LOL, when I looked up cool pad on Amazon, I realized that I already have one. I think it had a different name. I didn't used it with the overeating PC because it uses USB which made the PC overeat even more. Today I plugged I into my new PC and used it with my old one. I guess I need to get a USB extension cord as that was awkward.

Maybe you should put your "overeating" PC on a diet... Just a thought

Oooh, I always went there just to pick up the daily prezzie. I never thought to actually click on her. Doh!

Ah, okay. Thanks for the info! Sometimes I think I should read the strategy guide but it seems like too much work. ;-D

Players, past and present, put one heck of a lot of work into the strategy guide to help other players and you say it is too much work to look at and read.  I hope they don't read your post and stop updating it.

Edited to add.  Not to mention the time and trouble they took to copy it and bring it across from the old forum.

Thank you Anna for pointing out what no one else would.  Every forum needs a steadying influence like you.

AEG's MC Game Guide, as well as our other reference documents, are wonderful resources for anyone interested in using them.  They are extremely labor intensive projects which some of us gratefully use on a regular basis.  Just the same, using them or not is a matter of personal choice.  There is not a right or wrong way.  Nobody's been unanimously elected to judge anyone else here.
