    Well, I need to build something next, so it might as well be that. I got the
    Fire Station
    with my latest splice, and I'm only three splices away from the
    Museum. I have the Writer and Philosopher, so I just need Poet --> Librarian --> Historian.

    I've been skipping every hour to get to that mission, but it hasn't come up yet...

    Even so, I love using the Chemical Plant to halve my utopium collection time. In my main game, once the 24-hour timer expires and I see my first 1u collected, I enable the Utopium Leak event. It usually takes me about 8 minutes to get the other 24u (i.e. from 12 drops or less) with about 75 trees. I think that in my Level 1 game with only 9 trees at the moment, I could save an hour or two while I slowly build up my forest size.

    Contemplating starting over with a Casino/Church strategy but wanted to confirm whether I'd lose the u that I purchased?

    Don't know if this is a known issue. But the count at the top of the screen being wrong. I'm currently at 212/211 and I've got more genes yet to discover.

    Secret genes are not counted as part of the denominator.

    Level 8 - Lumber Mill

    The Lumber Mill costs 900,000 at Level 8. Anyone know if it costs less at Level 1 - 7? 900K is certainly more reasonable than 150M on my other game.

    There is a conspiracy to keep the TRUE number of genes SECRET. Don't believe what IVAN says. Fight the POWER. The truth is OUT THERE.

    Not all BUNNIES can be TRUSTED.

    I'll post the Level 1 cost as soon as I get it, but that may be a while since it will cost me 30u to get the
    Strongman
    gene to splice the
    Lumberjack
    , and my Level 1 game moves at a very slow pace... That's one day's worth of utopium to get the gene, plus another day to get 4 land from the church, plus housing, etc.

    On this note, I think we've run into more and more exploits with church/casino. Time scaling wasn't an issue. Time doesn't scale with level.

    BUT there are others currently and I actually think it may be time to rework how levelling up works on our side.

    Aah, I dunno why I always thought that levelling increased the times; mustn't have been paying enough attention lol.

    To be honest the only reason I'd start a casino game would be for the challenge or mainly the fact I wouldn't need duplicates. To be fair I could just put a bunch of city squares off out of the way so I don't have to see them. Lol

    You still need plenty of duplicates to generate decent cash flow for spins, you need a lot of spins, a lot. Duplicates are just a necessary method of making big money.

    The flow of my Casino game though has definitely become more enjoyable to me than my normal game, mostly because Casino keeps you trying to achieve something, while the normal game is just waiting for content updates.

    I think my game may have a bug. On the last 10/ 15 or so times i have got my Daily Pet from the Animal Shelter it has given me the same prize 85K coins. I've not had an animal for ages and the prize is always the same - coins. Am I just getting bad odds every day or is this a bug?

    Also, can the Romantic gene now be unlocked via a mission?

    Luck definitely. As for the Romantic, it's unlockable via the Gene Pool.

    Ah, so if I try to splice a job that's in the hotel I get that message.
    It'd be nice to have a different message for case #2.
    Because it was #2 and the error message led me to believe it was #1, combined with 0 people in the arrival centre, I thought it was a bug.

    It would be interesting to hear more details. Again, the number of casino/church folks must be very small compared to regular players. So I am assuming that changes to leveling would be to help normal players not nerf casino/church folks?

    Bug report : crashing when finishing hearts

    I don't know if this has been reported already or not. But it's happened to me 4-5 times now. It happens when I finish my last heart, and then the popup that says Animal Surprise or whatever, where you have to swipe to the right; when I swipe, the game crashes. It often seems to happen when I have > 1 golden hearts as well. When I come back to the game, the hearts are still full, or it resumes with the Animal Surprise popup, but I think the golden hearts are lost. I have an older iphone 3 if that matters.
