    Anybody need a Bobcat controls? I've got a Bobcat and I don't need to trade it for anything specific.

    Still haven't sent my Seqs out anywhere, idle for 5 days... think I'll send them out now, they're all full anywho. I'll probably get the 50 jobs for Mumbai in some ridiculous manner, a starship or blimp-only method perhaps.

    I was in first there for awhile. Oh well :p
    14 planes can only do so much.

    Getting sleepy though. We will have to see how many places I fall in the morning! I'm still curious about who is in 2nd place with just over 1200.

    Nice! How did you shoot up so quickly? I took a break and spent some time in real life :D , played some Mafia Wars, came back to PP and see you now have 1650 jobs. WOW!
    Mumbai isn't as fun as Port Moresby. I definitely prefer the Class 1 events. At least I didn't spend the Bux reward on rearranging my fleet. I just let some planes sit on the sidelines. Wish the idle ones wouldn't float up to the top of the list.

    We should add each other :). What's you gc? I'm very far. Only 41 jobs so far. Updating is slow

    I'm just going to be pedantic and say: there is an edit button to edit your posts. Please use it.
    Back to nice me :p

    I almost lost my game. My iPhone was doing very strange things after a reboot (lockscreen, black screen with spinning loading circle, lockscreen, blackscreen with... just in an endless loop) but after a hard reset it was working again. I've now turned iCloud syncing back on. I'll need to reset the whole thing soon anyway to get iOS 6.

    OMG the iPhone 5 is so sexyful! I love dark minimalism. Damnit, I'm a fanboy.

    EDIT: Oh and another mention, anybody need a Bobcat Controls?

    Glad you didn't lose your game. Welcome back btw :)

    I'm using 25 :). I just keep loading them up. I just added Mumbai to my usual route. But I do have Kirachi already from my basic route. From Kirachi I'm getting a nice movement of jobs. Also I've turned on advertising in Mumbai. My back hurts a lot and this old man is going to rest soon :). My goal really is to be in the top 5. Haven't done a decent global event recently.

    Ah, I get it now. Obviously I was way more tired than I thought and totally missed you saying you were in first place earlier. Haha. GC friend request sent!

    I basically just repurposed all of my planes (25 of them, but one is still running green jobs) to running round-trip to Mumbui. Other than the 4 planes coming from Chicago and NYC, none are making more than a direct flight to Mumbai and then back home. I'm not making any kind of a profit, but I am breaking even so I'm not too concerned.

    The heavy lifters though are my 8 Cloudliners who usually make profit runs between Chicago and NYC to Seoul and Tokyo are making the Mumbai run from the asian cities. Which means I am sending 136 jobs every 20-ish minutes. That adds up fast!

    Ooooh that was a close one. Glad you didn't lose your game data! I know clouds are the way of the future, I just haven't warmed up to them yet but prolly should soon. I had to replace my iPhone a few months back and lost data from some of my games. No rhyme or reason it seems, for games made by the same company, it kept the data of one game but not the other. I thought that was odd. Anyhow I just couldn't get back into the game where I had to start from scratch again. So I would really hate for this to happen with PP. hmmm... Maybe I'll look into iCloud sooner then.

    I'll take the Bobcat Controls off your hand if nobody else wants it. I only have a Bobcat Body. Hmmm I thought I was supposed to have a 2nd part (there were 2 Bobcat part events, right?) but I guess one didn't make it to me durin prize distribution.

    I'm a fangirl married to a fanboy. We'll be ordering new phones right away. To be fair, we've only been upgrading every other release and are still using the iPhone 4 (not the 4s). Nevertheless, the Reality Distortion Field is strong in this household...

    I'll trade you an engine or blimp parts for a control - PM me if interested.

    I am so not trying on this event... and am still ranked #31. I tried closing down everything except a cluster of Class 3s in southeast Asia, but that turned out to be hugely inefficient (and boring), so I've switched to a simple Rio - Kinshasa - Mumbai - Dhaka - Shanghai route and am picking up the event jobs (Dhaka has a college party right now) as filler. All I have in the air are 3 Cyclone Ms and 3 Sequoia Ms!

    Hoping for a Class 2 next time because at least that requires some effort beyond loading up the monster planes.

    So I'm skipping this Global event b/c too much work right now. No_Kitano is probably up in the top 5, he's a beast.

    PS...as long as we're swapping Bobcat parts, I have a body and I'm looking for an engine.
