Having being heavily trounced in the past for having the "audacity" to  send a complete Collection as a TY for a Conductor's Device piece I was longing for and had trouble finding I empathize 100%, I do Daily Gifting  too and with 500+ Friends I  make several mistakes Daily but then there is always tomorrow ...

You might want to try to mitigate the chances of error by doing Gifting from the Newsfeed first, since it will show recent  addtition to the WL of Friends in reverse chronological order.

My  personal method which is I think shared by most :  Is   "Avatar image /  Nickname request" ,  Wish List  and if empty an Artifact Assembler (always a different one according to the day of the week) ... while scrolling through Friends (and recently using the wheel mouse since I'm on Windows)

Now if someone politely asks you  for something do your best to remember but don't sweat it too much: If you make a mistake there's always tomorrow  ... And if someone acts like a "piss-vinegar" as we say in French then simply ignore them  and wish them to find something better that a video game to be the center of their existence ... IT'S JUST A GAME (^) ...

Personally, I am laways grateful that a stranger took precious time out of her/his busy schedule to try to help me ... And the next time someone  chastize me for sending the wrong gift, I will remind them that all they need to do to alleviate this in the future is delete the Gift and move on OR delete me from them Friend list  (^)  ... I'm glad to say' I haven't have to do it since the "trouncing" only  happened ounce in the 9-10 Months I've been playing ..

Also there is 2 schools on Gifting:

-Giver-based  where  you are happy to receive anything anyone was kind enough to Give. They tend to see their Inbox as a  front porch where sometimes more or less close Friends & kind strangers leave gifts.

- Receiver-based where people want to receive ony specific CIs / Assemblers at specific times and get very annoyed if their wish isn't repsected to the point. The inbox has only 50 spots after all and they seem see it as a "previous resource" to further their game and cat get very testy on what they as a MAJOR CRIME`: "misuse of  THEIR inbox" ...

In colsing, my advice would be:  Do your best to heed to polite demands when/if you can and  ignore the overbearing bullies or  maybe reply them that your intent is good and that there is always tomorrow ... If they stay mad,   don't sweat it and UN-Friend there are so many cool users looking for more Friends  (^) ...

HAPPY GAMING !
