    I had a similar issue. I think you have to download a provisioning profile or something. Nevertheless I contacted the developer and they fixed it for me.

    I apologize, but I'm leaving the beta. After installing the provision file, iCloud has been acting wonky and my wireless connection icon has disappeared from my ipad mini. If I had a "disposable" device, I would continue.

    EDIT, now that the provisioning file is gone, it's back to normal. Sorry.

    Sorry to lose you Grey.

    Does anyone else see this issue? I dont see it on full sized ipad, ipod, or iphone.

    Is anyone else testing with a mini that can confirm these issues?

    Thanks!

    Testing on a mini, I don't use iCloud, but after installing profile, everything went very smoothly.

    How do I install the provisioning profile?

    When you click on the link in the email asking you to install the game, you will be directed to a webpage. At the top, there should be another link that asks you to install it.

    The provisioning issue is an odd one. Some people get the email and can install it immediately. Some get the email and cant install for a day.

    All the beta devices registered in the beta are in the provisional profile.
    We are testing a backup way to download the beta with picohero. If it works we will offer it as a solution to anyone having issues.

    You know you are getting the provisional profile if your device asks permission to access the device to install that provisional profile. It is a 10k piece of code with UDID and security keys on it. Provisional profile are set to expire 1 year from issue so eventually you will get a notice that it has expired and is deleted. You can also manually delete it yourself.

    Also Game Center may want you in a sandbox mode for testing so you may try declining signing into GC or shutting it down first. This is a shot in the dark but easy enough to try.
    Stay tuned for workarounds. Your TF links should do the trick...eventually.

    Never mind, for some reason, now it is listed in my apps on Test Flight. Not sure what fixed it. Installing the game now.

    EDIT: the game keeps crashing on me and I am unable to play it. I'm going to hit ye olde crash logs and see if its a RAM thing.

    Please observe the NO HORSEPLAY sign hung in the Beta Testers Lounge!

    The No Drinking, No Swearing, No Exotic Animals, & No Eating Everyone's Snacks In The Refrigerator signs are all optional under the Geneva Beta Tester's Pact of 1997.

    Thank You,
    Management

    Sorry D: I'll take my elephant home :/ the game looks very cool and I love the concept. It does appear to be a RAM problem that causes the crashing

    Hmmm, well i'm a bit dissapointed that you can't actually play this game offline, even in the single player Offline mode. I tried starting it on Airplane mode the first time around and it would always be loading the dictionary.

    Not a big issue but may be a bit misleading. Looking forward to getting around it today.

    Even though I already filled in the form, I am still playing the game, and I can't seem to find any bugs that are apparent. Good job, devs!!

    I'm really enjoying this game. So far I've encountered no game changing bugs at all, so kudos to the devs on that one.

    I mentioned that it doesn't work in airplane mode. This is not the case, it just takes a while to load, so that was one of my suggestions.

    I submitted the form, but will submit another if I encounter any other bugs.

    Thanks Black Ops!
