Isn't Friday "date night" with the wife? Better put down all your iDevices and spend some quality time with her... ... Then maybe I'll have a shot at reaching Top 10.
Just barely by a 5 job lead. LOL Edit: ... Well that was short lived ... now you're #9 with 1848 and I'm #11 with 1837.
Sorry I have been gone so long! I just updated a couple rankings near the bottom (I'm in 99th...It's going to be a long climb up...!) The forum is still broken I see. Kind of frustrating as I can't tell if there are more posts ahead I can't see or if it is just lying about how many pages there are... Also I have updated to show there are at least 104 TA1 members Cheers!
You can see what happens if you do it in a browser. Click on the 'last page' link and the URL showing up in the URL bar will contain the corresponding page number. Apparently TouchArcade has built in a default redirect to the next lowest number if the page doesn't exist, because you can then see the URL count down until it finds a page that does exist. Weird. Cheers, M.
Was away for a few. Looks like we got a fully named leaderboard! Cool! So did we ever figure out who the unknowns were during Al Fashir?
New TouchArcade column: Pocket Planes Agony Aunt Dear Agony Aunt, I am a regular contributor to this forum. I compile statistics, come up with acronyms, donate planes, and generally try to be nice to people. Needless to say, I'm doing my best to be a good member of this community. Yet despite all his, a brief absence of mine from the forum recently was enough to initiate a fierce and persistent discussion about my gender. Speculations abound about me being a young girl, an old man, or anything in between. It is almost enough to make me start to doubt my own identity! Is this normal, Agony Aunt? What should I do about it? Sleepless in Singapore. ----------- Dear Merlion, You have absolutely nothing to worry about. This is perfectly normal. On the Internet anybody can be anything. There is no way to be sure, and it is a normal way of life on the forums. TouchArcade is no exception. If it bothers you, turn it around. Do you have any way to ascertain the gender of others on this forum? Can you really be sure that, say, 'Vic' is not shorthand for 'Victoria'? How do you know that Faye Valentine is not really a burly bearded man by the name of Valentine Faye? What makes you think Perfect Trumpet is not actually a Perfect Strumpet? Or that Penguin, who posts pictures of pickup trucks and Oklahoma oil rigs, doesn't in reality move around Manhattan in a mauve Miata? See? You are not alone in this. Do not worry your pretty little head any longer and keep flinging these little planes around like there's no tomorrow. Have fun, boys and girls! Love, Agony Aunt.
In fact, I've been wandering among the top 10 flight crews with my friends for a while. We played in Pockettactics, Reddit, 2ch, Nimblebit, Polygon, Nimblewiki and so on... constantly changing the crew. Finally we decide to dwell in TA1 cos it's the best PP forum we've ever seen and has the most awesome flyers!!!
Guns for hire lol. Come on don't be shy, tell us a bit about your other "flying" experiences And why haven't you just started your own crew with your friends lol? I guess as we have a GC members list, and we all friended each other, we notice new members rapidly (at least in the top10). So how many MIstery parts guys? Will Gus start a full 54 Hot Air Balloons airline?
I work down at the pizza pit And I drive and old Hyundai I still live with my mom and dad I'm 5'3 and overweight I'm a Sci-fi fanatic Mild athsmatic Never been to 2nd base But there's a whole nother me That you need to see Go check out MySpace Cause online I'm down in Hollywood I'm 6'5 and I look damn good I drive a Massarati I'm a black belt in Karate And I love a good glass of wine
Have a good laugh on me... So now I'm on my bux conquest after the last event. I'm stoked because I've amassed about 2200 bux in 2 days. I'm looking at the exchange and thinking about Vic's post and how exchanging sooner will get me where I need to be sooner. So I'm looking and getting stoked about exchanging and having 35million coins and being able to buy more slots and cities. I'm reallllly going to get this bux train rolling! So I do it. I make the exchange! I then buy the first slot...and then go to buy the second and not enough coins! Wait what!?! It turns out that you only get 3.5 million coins not 35million...doh! Oh well...still was able to purchase and fully upgrade la, tokyo, manila, buenos aires, and Lima. Already had the seqm in the hangar, so now I have 18 bux sitters instead of 13. Moral of the story is I'm starting to learn that when life pisses on my parade just laugh it off and roll it into something good!
Don't worry, you'll see way more Bux jobs with fully upgraded airports It's even more useful than another slot. I should have insisted on fully upgrading the farthest airports from the center. I did the upgrades such a long time ago I don't even think about that anymore lol. When I check my 10 Bux sitters on fully upgraded class 3 airports, I find between 50 and 100 Bux per refresh. To find it less boring, maybe limit the Bux sitters to the far away airports, only scroll to 4 or 5 Bux jobs, and fly the rest of your planes?
