    Maybe the game server for your platform is down. You might head over to their forum or site and see if others on Google Play are having issues.

    Hope you get it fixed. Although the prize is only 35 bux, this event is a routing challenge so I'm enjoying it.

    IT'S WORKING !!! I guess opening it up from my phone and getting the city on my phone and then having it re synced worked.
    I'm finally getting into events, before I never really bothered although I like the logistical challenge it brings and I've finally got my head around layovers !
    This should be good !
    Thanks, My Friend, I appreciate the input

    Have the events stopped offering plane parts as a reward? I haven't seen anything but bux in a long time. I'm still trying to collect some the special planes.

    Thanks Faye,

    I just sent gus172 a GC request.

    I'm having a rough time configuring for this event. I was just running Mapples through Magadan and Yakutsk but it is slow going so I'm going backwards in the leader board. I just added some Sequoias to feed the Class 3's closest to the event. See how that works for the next day.

    Interesting event but fun to work.

    Thanks again,

    Bobby

    Why are you running planes through Magadan?
    Shenyang -> Yakutsk -> Tiksi

    Sometimes it takes a day to a day and a half to get a rhythm going for a new Global Event. This should be a nice laid back event. It takes 1 hr 11 min for my Kangaroo to make a round trip.

    I always create an alternate in case the layover closes for weather or whatever reason they close. So I have Shenyang -> Yakutsk -> -> Tiksi as my primary routing and Tokyo -> Magadan -> Tiksi as the alternate path.

    You're right Faye, it should be an easy event. Sometimes I make these things harder than they should be. Probably a throw back to my days of a regional manager screaming at me to launch more planes than I had crews to turn them :D

    35 bux? Eek, not worth the hassle, plus I'm still leveling. About to hit 20, again. Should have waited to start bux sitting..... the levels have slowed waaayyyy down......

    Yeah....know what you mean. I need to go a few days bux sitting for a couple slots I want. I'm running on a shoe string budget. The boss is going to can me if I don't start making a profit.

    I sent you a Sequoia M part a couple days ago. You still need more parts?

    Don't know about cross platform. If you're on TA, then I won't see you on the leaderboard because I'm on TA1

    An event in Darwin and then an event in Tiksi. No plane parts. Guess I'm unaddicted to Pocket Planes now.

    Does the winner of an event get the same prize as everyone else in the top 10 ?!

    If anyone is on the toucharcade, can they be kind as to put a screen shot of the top 10 as my tablet hasn't update in hours !

    I'm not opening Pocket Planes unless NimbleBit offers us a part event... Hopefully they do so I can finish off the Concorde and the Kringle Kruiser.

    I like remote class 1 events! That GRIND IT TO THE BONE - type gameplay.


    Which KK part are you missing?
