    The crazy thing is that with an hour to go Faye was at 1025 jobs just barely behind me for 10th. When she passed me I had to bux boost to get back in top ten. She did 750+ jobs in less than an hour and I'm not sure how.

    Ahhhhh

    Well whoever flew into second please let me know. I would like to send out the cloud liner.

    And in the spirit of Merlions game should he choose to promote it with prizes I am going to take a little world event break to try and close some of the other events. Unless it is a full plane c130 than watch out.

    Muuuuuuahhhhhhhahhhhhhhhaaaaaaaa

    Sometimes you don't have 3G or wifi and a lot of jobs register at once

    I've been following that ranking for a while and was thinking about the same thing. Pretty amazing.
    I would say it's kind of magic...

    Hmm... I was wondering... Is the prices for each place are getting bigger while leveling up? For me, at 12lvl, it's 30 bux for 1st plice. It is not much.

    Seeing as I've seen that the Starship pretty much makes a loss on every journey except London <-> Paris, I think I'll pass on this one (although I've recently expanded into southern Asia).

    Oh, and a little letter to Nimblebit: Please can we have a full rare aeroplane event starting on either March 17th or 20th? (I've got that week off work, so I should get plenty of mystery parts that I can use as bargaining chips when swapping for other parts).

    If you mean the prizes for the global events (I'm assuming that English isn't your first language), then they're the same regardless of whether you're at Level 1 or Level 50.

    Yes, I mean the global events. I forgot to mention that one :D
    But why is it only 30 bux for 1st place? I assume that you have to spend a lot more bux to finish global event on this position.

    I said I'd send you planes a few pages back. You're in luck! Out of the 100 people on GC who show up on my gifting list, you just squeaked by at #99. :D Sending parts now...

    Some of us spend more than the Global Event Bux Prize on re-arranging our planes to work the event, but that is only because we've reached a point where Bux & Coins aren't such a big deal.

    Ha :D #99... Nice one :)
    I wish I could make it up to you somehow. Now I can just say thank you. I got two parts a few minutes ago.

    All sent. :) It takes a while, the process is more endless scrolling than clicking send. ;) You should receive 2 of each type part before the next Ice Age ... unless I lost track and sent 3 of one type and 1 of another type. :eek:

    Try not to stress over the global event when it's only a Bux prize. You can collect more Bux (than the prize) by picking up Bux jobs during your normal flights.

    Yes. Now I can make 2 Aeroeagle-m :) Can I do it now and use them at 12lvl or I should wait to 16lvl when they are available? And what about airport upgrades? I have 130k coins now. Leave them and collect more or update London or Moscow?
    Thank you for your help and patience. I really appriciate it.

    ... And that concludes the Punta Arenas MORONS challenge. As was to be predicted, in the contest between TA1 crew and morons, TA1 won!

    Congratulations to Gus, the Mountain Lion of Punta Arenas. Unassailable to the end, he is the indisputable winner of the Concorde. And congrats to all the other Top Tenners too, all of who I was glad to find on my friends list. So everyone should've gotten their Concorde part. If you didn't get it, ring the alarm.

    Faye was so kind as to update the Top 10 two minutes before the end, which was great as I had a clean list to work from. Thanks, Faye!

    Trust NimbleBit to miss out on Chinese New Year, although they still can mend the error of their ways next Sunday. But at least we've got Starship parts to aspire to. Forza TA1!

    Cheers,
    M.
