    Great game and I love the updates. That said, here are my minor complaints/suggestions about multiplayer:

    1. I don't mind if the number of fruits for each side are uneven but it would be cool to have the numbers listed at the end of the match.

    2. Opponent disconnected is really annoying and should be counted somehow. I know this happens legitimately sometimes but when it's done in the last 5-10 seconds when the outcome is obvious, it's ridiculous. Also, maybe even an option to block these players after the match?

    3. I don't particularly mind when an opponent gets points for fruit that, on my screen, appeared to have gone unsliced. I get that there will be some lag and that's fine. But when my opponent slashes a boatload of fruit, sometimes even included the 3-pointers, before it ever gets onto my screen, that's a bit ridiculous. I've seen it happen plenty enough at this point (I can hear the noises and see a bit of the splash from the slash) and would like to know what's going on with this.

    Anyway, thanks for a great game. Took me a while to actually get it but once I did I wondered why I had waited so long.

    I forget what it was called, but I got an achievement for exactly equalling my high score. Whatever the achievement was made me laugh, as there is no question that exactly equalling your high score is incredibly frustrating. At the time, I thought this was perhaps the best and most creative achievement I had seen.

    I fear the day my quest for that achievement begins.

    G-damn it. I havent played FN classic mode in ages. And If I get that 577 something score again, it's gonna hurt real bad if I have to lose intentionally instead of improving my score >.<

    Maybe if your opponent disconnects mid game, we could give a victory (as seen on the leaderboards) to the other player automatically. That way you don't lose anything when someone rage quits on you :)

    i don't know if this is just me but for some reason in multiplayer i don't see the opponent actually slicing the fruits sometimes. it just falls to the ground like it hasn't been slashed. then it records the score as if he has slashed it. i'm assuming this is because of a lag in the system??
    And also i clicked on the gamecenter button in the game and the game didn't exactly crash, but all the icons and buttons such as play, dojo, and gamecenter all dissapeared only leaving the backround. i basically had to close out and this has happend a couple times now.

    Yup, this is because of lag. Sadly Game Center doesn't do any kind of QoS guarantee, so sometimes you can get matched up with people with truly terrible connections! On the upside, at least the game still plays smooth under lag conditions... I always remember trying to play Unreal Tournament 99 on dial-up... it felt like you were attached to a big crazy rubber band just trying to move around :D

    P.S. We will look into that bug as well, thanks!

    i think the bug was only a one time thing, so it wasn't too big of a deal :D

    Also, holy balls at some of the crazy people on the leader boards for Multi player Victories. There are 2 guys above the 750 victories mark... Even if they won every single game and instantly spammed through the results screen in 0 seconds, this is still over 12 and a half hours of multi player time!

    Anyone hit that one fruit that sorta just comes across the screen and when you hit it, it gives like 100 pts? I think I hit it in Zen mode.. Sorry if it was already mentioned in pages before.. New job and hard to keep up with all the good game threads. Any idea how you get it to show up? Happened a few days ago so I kinda forgot some things..

    And yes please add voice support via GC.
