Universal Capitals - Free Word Battle (by Nimblebit)

It worked for me. 8 consecutive wins to unique opponents.

Re: inactivity... I agree with a timer system. I think a week before the inactive player is forced to forfeit is reasonable. Don't force people to play. Real life commitments differ between people, but no one's going to complain too much about the inactive game being on their list for a week.

 

My suggestion for handling unplayed opponent moves after a long period is to allow the player to cancel the game after, say, 24 hours without forfeiting the game.

 

Interesting. So I guess I'm not gonna use the "rematch" option for a while because it seems to be the reason why I still didn't accomplish that achievement even though I'm currently on a winning streak with 16 games. But there's the same player 3 times throughout that. Might be causing the problem I guess. Thanks for clarifying!

If you put it that way, sounds more than reasonable. I definitely agree. Even if someone try to hinder on purpose, eventually there's going to be an end to it. I wouldn't worry to make it even 72 hours per move. It's still a lot of time to make a move. Anyway, it's just a suggestion. The decision has to be made elsewhere.

 

The problem I would have with this is that if someone knew they were going to lose they could just wait for you to forfeit the match that way they don't lose the game?

 

For some reason I have one game where overtime i play a word the game crashes. I can go to another game and play words fine, but the minute I go back to that game and play a word it crashes again. :S

 

Would love for more stats such as:

- words played for win
- quickest win
- most words played in a game
- avg letters played per game

Also would love if we could unlock some customisation options for completing achievements. I get you need money to make apps but I am sure at $7 for 5 lives you can give out a few more customisation options to people . I'm not saying make them all free. Just a few more options

 

Some people treat the game like scrabble.

My opponent just played xi. Seriously!?

Edit: Beat him in the third round. One more win for 8 in a row!!!!

 

Back and forth matches, yeah. I hope you're talking about our match of 33 rounds as well It's definitely the longest for me so far. Thanks btw, it was fun Looking forward to a rematch

 

Let me know if it works for you. Because even though I have 8 consecutive wins in a row to unique opponents, it's still locked on my GameCenter stats. Don't know what's wrong.

 

Will do, just waiting 10 more mins to be able to play the next game. I wish the wait was less. I understand the need for it but at the moment I am only able to play 20 if that games a day.

 

Also someone quit on me earlier, not sure how but I am assuming they deleted the game through their open games? It comes up in the menu as "player left match" if I view the match though it says defeat? I am assuming this is a bug? If they leave I should be awarded the win? :S

 

It'd be only fair to be awarded with win if the opponent quits, but I'm not quite sure if it's the case right now. Is it in your list of finished games with green "you won" next to it?

 

There aint green for a win or red for a loss next to it. I'll post screenshots. As you will be able to see I am quite clearly beating my opponent yet it comes up with a defeat as he somehow quits. It then in the menu says "player left match"

 

This is a cool little game, but is it only me who thinks the "life" timer is absolutely bonkers?

 

Could you please explain how inactivity works in this game? How much time must pass before my opponent loses a turn or forfeits?

 

They don't. As it stands they could wait forever

 

Either the achievement is broken or my previous problem has come into effect but I haven't got the achievement after 8 wins in a row
