I tried three different methods a number of times, and these were the results.
METHOD NUMBER ONE - RUNNING AROUND LIKE CRAZY
Obviously, I had to try this. I wanted to compare how long my usual method took with how long the other two methods took. This method was the only one where I quit out of frustration.
I was using an eagle to do the adventure because I'm soft like that, but HOLY MIRA! It's all perfectly fine until you've got the last batch of envelopes and you realise you have no clue where to look. This ends up with you spending three weeks hunched over your laptop, searching the entire map over and over again for that last mailbox.
WHY THIS METHOD IS GOOD: It's not.
WHY THIS METHOD IS BAD: Don't get me started! There's no system. It takes forever. It's confusing, too, and you're most likely to quit doing this method.
METHOD NUMBER TWO - WORKING IN
This method....worked quite well! I flew around the outside of the map twice, clicking all the mailboxes I could see (I went around twice in case I'd missed any). Then I flew in a bit and went around twice again. I went further and further into the centre until I had pretty much delivered everything!
WHY THIS METHOD IS GOOD: You're less likely to miss a box and it's very neat.
WHY THIS METHOD IS BAD: Flying around the outside once, twice, even three times.... can take a while. I actually reached the centre and and found I still had 5 letters left. So, of course, I flew around crazily! But I did manage to complete this one, which was good.
METHOD NUMBER THREE - THE ULTIMATE WINNER
It took me about twenty minutes to finish the adventure.
I went across in lines, searching each line carefully before moving up. It looked like this:
By the end of the adventure, when I reached the edge of the map, I had completed the entire thing, not missing one box.
I did this five times and I never missed one!
WHY THIS METHOD IS GOOD: Lots of accuracy, it's easy, it's actually really quick and it gets the job done.
WHY THIS METHOD IS BAD: I can't find a reason.

Need some gems? Want some items? Looking for some rares? Seasonal adventures are the answer! You don't have to complete them, although that gets the best prizes. Take the current clover on for example. Grab the ten closest clovers, get the key, two instant items! They're also great boredom busters, so if you don't usually play adventures, you really should do these!
I'm so sorry for my inactivity. I may quit this blog as I have so much work to do. Nobody really reads it, anyway.
