U're welcome mate! a team (Nimblewiki I guess?) has just passed us at 2nd place with 4 more jobs at 22355!!! Come on guyz, let's show'em you don't mess with TouchArcade1
The event is a Dive Trip, so the sunken treasure being shipped out is what all the divers have found. There's no credit for transporting them other than the coins you get for normal cargo.
The size of the screen hasn't been an issue for me yet, and please note that I wear child-size gloves! (I'd like a pair of elegant black leather gloves, but the only ones that fit right tend to be bright pink with sparkly rainbows) As Flying Duck noted, that's a special outgoing cargo for the Dive Trip event type. Certain other events also have special outgoing jobs, like the Archeological Dig (ancient scrolls, some other ancient things I can't recall offhand) and the Embassy Dinner (spy documents).
Thanks for the advice; however, I don't think that's the issue. The game has not been registering all of my jobs since the San Diego event a few weeks ago. I was on the road all day that Sunday so I sent probably close to 500 jobs, but not one of them counted once I was home and connected to wi-fi in order to sync the game. Then, it again didn't count all my jobs for the Tiksi event. And then, today and yesterday, none of my Rio jobs have been counted. It still says rank will update shortly, and I started the event as soon as it began. I'm at a loss of what to do besides wait and see if it finally connects. The 40 bux prize doesn't matter to me, I'm at level 33 so bux aren't scarce anymore. I just would like it fixed by the time the prize gets to be something better
Oh no, really? I was going to lay low for this event after I finished Tiksi at #10 (my first top ten finish! *pats self on back*), but we gotta step it up to keep our #2 spot! *cue the sound of Sequoias revving up*
The worst thing about this event is that I now have two songs running through my head whenever I'm loading up the planes: A lot of you might be familiar with Duran Duran: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3W6yf6c-FA ... but I may be the only one the right age to remember Pablo Cruise: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zbSnoQHLDM Sigh. Carry on, youngsters.
Yes, this! I can't tell you how many times today I've said, "Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand".
hey guys i'm back!!! haven't played much this week because i had a project due today (friday) but it's done and now i can go back to PP started late on the Rio event but i'm slowly clawing my way up the leaderboards. let's regain 2nd place Edit: leaderboard #16-#25 16. 690 jayorros 17. 562 coastcat 18. 467 zekeamf 19. 360 captainbrowncoat 20. 338 me 21. 316 ffejro23 22. 300 creepermom 23. 249 ??? 24. 197 lizb 25. 193 standardization
I was going to sit this event out and try my hand at collecting bux for a few days, but when I saw my beloved TA1 has slipped to third by a mere 300 jobs I felt real guilty and decided to get in the game. I know I missed a day and a half (easily could have covered the 300 deficit ), but I intend to do my best the next 48 hours and hope to add a thousand jobs or so to help cement our rightful place as #2 IN THE WORLD.
Now they're only 65 jobs ahead of us! (As of 1:11am, PST) Let's close that gap and then zoom on ahead!
That's a real competitive race we're 3rd now 35k jobs lagging 500 jobs Come on guys for TouchArcade1! [insert any half time coach's motivational speech from sports movies]
Im trying out something new today. I closed all my airports exept these when i woke up, and this is what my games look like now. I dont think i like. I dont earn enough bux and coin and i need a lot of bux oN my new mission. Im going to buy one of each plane and put them in my hangar and hope someone will help me with a couple "rare" planes. Edit: I have 7 airports open and 14 sequoia m's flying around. 2 seq's for every city open.
