    Hey thanks! I was on mobile so I couldn't see the signature. Some of it makes my head spin. I should sleep more often I think....

    Pocket Trains, while very polished, lacked the crew competition aspect of PP, which is what kept us playing it so long after we "finished" it (having all airplanes, 30+ slots, enough money to buy and upgrade any airport...)

    PT also felt more amd more like micro management nightmare as I progressed in the game, whereas in later stages of PP, you can just keep long distance routes through class 3 airports. Maybe that's just me though, I stopped when I had opened all continents, and 20+ trains routes. Never came back to it. I still play PP here and there for an event.

    Nodnod. I can understand that. There's only so much you can do if the game is largely a "solo" experience. In my case, once I've figured out a 'best strategy' and seen if that works for awhile, I'll often lose interest in a game since there's nothing new to learn or try, and no way to assist other players.

    Ditto! I played Pocket Trains but lost interest because of the lack of competition. I continue to support TA1 in PP because of the crew members.

    Read the blog. Very interesting, but I lost all my PP progress due to a bad 3G connection, which caused issues with iCloud and overwrote my good save with a clean save after reinstalling PP before the good save was loaded. And this, after investing A LOT of hours in PP, just sucks... :(

    On the other side, Pocket Trains resumed where I left perfectly after reinstalling.

    Has anyone ever had an issue where the game doesn't correctly attribute your jobs during an event?

    I had 2 planes land at Barrow, one with 1 passenger to Barrow, and another with 4. My jobs should be 5, except it says 3. I force closed the app, but it still says 3.

    First Mapple has 2,000,000 miles and 20 days.

    So I don't play PP very much anymore. But I did recently turn on iCloud. Opened PP, everything is gone. Gone. Back to level 1. And to think, I threw nimblebit a few Bucks here and there :mad:

    Umm....
    Does anyone know when event parts are rewarded? The air museum opening hit its end date recently and I haven't recieved my part(s) yet. And I did qualify, 200+ jobs.

    Check your hanger, it should be there. Sometimes it is harder to notice if you already had the part that was rewarded...

    Interesting question!

    Cyclone
    10,074,000 miles -- 60 days

    Kangaroo
    3,350,000 miles -- 45 days

    Mapple
    4,000,000 miles -- 39 days


    I don't know if you guys remember me mentioning how I tried to cash in too many Bux for Coins and ended up with zero coins and a reduced number of Bux. I think I had somewhere between 1500 to 2000 Bux after that big oops. Well, I've finally brought up my Bux to 65k after 5 months of casual play. Not bux sitting. Just picking up bux during normal play.

    I participled in the last Global Event: Thanksgiving to Boston and completed 77 jobs, so I was over the minimum 50 jobs to qualify, plus I am on the Toucharcade Flight Crew, which came in first place; however, I did not get awarded the prize Blimp in my Hanger.

    EDIT: the blimp is in my hanger now. It has just been awarded. Thanks!
