    Hey mate, too bad :(

    you should be able to restore your PP icloud save if you reconnect your device with the same itunes/icloud account I guess.
    Also, your iPad may have done an iCloud save of all your device even if you didn't sync with iTunes on a laptop.

    And lastly did you try contacting Nimblebit's support? They've been helpful with players losing their save usually. ;)

    Nice! It just wouldn't be the same around here without Merlion and the MOFO Statesman & Herald. And it's definitely true, this is a much better read than the news. :D

    A class 1 airport with 0.2M population in the middle of Africa, with only 30 buks as a reward. Why must you do this Nimblebit? D:

    OK I was an event ahead when I predicted an event in Africa. I said after Xian that we would have an event there but then got suprised by another Class 3 asian event. Happy to get a class one event for a change we haven't had one for a while.

    I think your post woke everybody up, #10 more than doubled in those last 16 hours. LOL

    Nice to see you again. Sorry to hear about the iPad, that sucks. You've just reminded me that I haven't backed up the iPhone in a while coughoveramonthcough, and I really should know better since I'm on my 2nd iPhone replacement (1st one had a screen that remained dark, 2nd one had a bad microphone/speaker). Sent a few planes your way.

    Faye you did storm your way up the leaderboard! Were you even in the top10 yesterday? ;)

    About the device save, I encourage those of you who are on iOs 5 or higher to activate the automatic iCloud save.
    Just open an iCloud account, go to settings iCloud/save. It's free for 5Go of data.
    It will save your device every day automatically when you plug it to recharge!

    I didnt use iCloud and i didnt take any backup. I think ill just start over and hope i find the joy of playing again. December was tough and i lost all intrest of playing exept for events to get the prize and parts.


    Thank you Faye. I dont have a class 3 airport yet, but when i finish getting 50 jobs in the event ill start making money and bux so i can buy class 3 airports and plane parts.

    Take a look at the Strategies link in my signature below, it'll take you to a post with a bunch of links to other posts on the forum ... there's a link to CastlePage's New Pocket Planes Game Fast Coin Strategy post and links to a few other posts that might be interesting reads. ;)

    D'oh just sent one of my event planes on a round trip to Lobito but didn't hit fly as I got distracted, then forgot that I had set up the flight, saw it at Kinshasa so put in another round trip to Lobito. I did wonder why when I hit fly it said 23mins to fly the trip rather than 12mins the rest of my SK's were taking so still being dumb checked its speed to see if I had upgraded the others and not this one :confused:

    I claim #12 for Tokyo, with 811 jobs. I converted half my fleet of 14 planes from M's to P's for this one. Need to build up points / bucks, so I'm going to sit out this next one.

    Nice! I'll enter that in the SUCK later when I get to a computer.

    My fleet is a mess after Tokyo. :(
    I'm normally an M fleet but swapped out some for P Cloudliners and Cyclones. I tried M Cloudliners a LONG time ago and hated them. Thought I'd give the P Clouds a try and it was a better experience. I still prefer M planes and would like to switch back but it is painful putting these planes back into the hangar cuz it's an expensive process. Now I've got 6 Clouds and 6 Cyclones to hangar. Thinking maybe I should try to make this P/C style of play work for me before spending more Bux to rearrange everything.

    I find it very useful to always have a few paired Cloudliners P/C in the fleet.
    They come in handy to gather large amounts of event jobs from nearby class 3 airports. They're fast and high capacity.
    Sometimes you don't need them, but due to their high hangar cost, I keep 'em grounded ;)
    I agree that the Cloud M is unusable imho.

    In other news, I'm at 61800 Bux right now, closing in on my 63k target, which would enable me to go from 54 slots to 63 I guess. Without going through the 2.15 Billion coin threshold!

    Anyway, going to Corsica for vacation, I'll see if I still fling some planes or not :D

    Enjoy your vacation, your thumbs deserve a little break. ;)

    The P/C Clouds/Cyclones work fine for class 3 events. I'm finding them problematic for bringing layovers to the nearest class 3 city for this class 1 event. Depending on the luck of the job list, I could end up with too many P planes landing and not enough C planes (or vice versa) ... then my M class 1 planes are stuck. How do you solve that problem?

    I saw Merlion in the Top 10 for Lobito a few minutes ago ... and then bumped off by an Unknown.

    Thks Faye ;)

    Usually in the long run, it evens out.
    If not, I try to use one paired P/C class 1 or 2 for delivery. So I just bux boost the one needed to "lower layovers" a few times :D
    Or I ground some of the Cloudliners a few turns and bux boost the other ones to balance layovers again.
