Getting with my friends tomorrow to finish the last bits of the app and write up the App Store description! I'm throwing a big launch party in here on Tuesday, so look out!
-
@mvnla2 Ah, thanks for the info and glad you made it back. I just wondered if that was something Rovio would treat as a bug, since some get fixed, and many do not. My conflict of interest joke was meant for score junkies, i.e. those who find an edge and keep it secret. They'd have an incentive not to report a level, meaning there could still be a few hiding in the old levels.
-
@Kelani -- I think the ones hiding it the old levels exist mostly because the forum didn't exist, or I didn't read through all the comments. I would say most don't get fixed. If a self-destroying or unstable level results in a really high score, I think it is mostly found out, because people really question those high scores.
If you haven't already, try some of the unstable levels, some of them are really fun to watch. -
@BirdLeader @AMSlimfordy -- I've been plagued by getting kicked out of the nest altogether or the error box all evening. The error box in the old forum,but getting kicked out everywhere.
-
@mvnla2 @Amslimfordy Meee Tooooo error box everywhere! !
@Kelani I'll pass on googling that. .I kinda like my sesfood
I did see an article when they thought they found. .uhmm.. one of the planes years ago and it turned out to be a garbage island! ! Maybe the air France. Idk crs has set in.. -
A kkk @KKimmiecv Did you have earthquake today? Google says you did? Crap!! Hope all is I.k
-
Hey y'all!
Just a very speedy pop in as Mother in Law is just about to serve a humongous Sunday roast and it's also my beautiful nieces 5th birthday so their house is chaotic to say the least! Had to sneak away though to say Happy Mothers Day to a wonderful Mum and GrandMother @mumsie42! Hope your little eggs are spoiling you today?! Be in touch soon. My life gets crazier by the day ;)!!
Must dash
Laters!!
Oh btw yeah I know that sounds awful that MIL is cooking on Mothers Day but we've all chipped in and she loves cooking in chaos!!! -
@JLZ666 Great to hear from you, and glad you're having a wonderful family day! Love & ((((hugz))) xoxo
-
Awwww @tompuss you always give such wonderful hugs on entering the pub! Thank you and big hug right back atcha! Yeah today has been a crazy busy one! A 5yr olds birthday party at 11am on a Sunday morning at a ceramic painting workshop is not my idea of day of rest (hubby is still in shock) but after the screaming died down (from kids & hubby) and we congregated at in laws house,things calmed down and we are having a great day. Not going to deny that things have been tough lately so today is a wonderful release. Not without its surprises but heck,I'm getting used to it now ;)
I'm waaaaaaay behind in here and haven't read back enough but seriously WTG @absm! That's fantastic news! I'm sorry but I'm not on Facebook but I wish you all the luck in the world on you and your friends business adventure!
Sorry but there's an apple and pecan crumble about to come out of the oven so better go.
-
I just wanted to drop in and say hi and thanks to all my new friends. How can I add a photo here so it does not show up in the regular activity section?
-
Hi @wicket182 welcome to the Bloated Pig ;) your first visit everything on the menu is free! !
Be sure to check out page 1 to see what we are all about.
As for posting a photo hmmm I'm not really sure about if it shows in activity section or not
Maybe @e-star can help but i think maybe she is sleeping now. But sure she will help when she pops in;) -
Awww @JLZ666 I missed you. .happy mothers day to all Mom's over the pond
And jlz666 I hope the birthday party is a wonderful day;) -
@wicket182 -- I think you should change your picture to one of the bottom 3 choices instead of 'public'.
-
So instead of adding 4 days to the end of the school year, my school has decided to start school at 8:20. This winter has been really crazy though, we just got an inch of snow and half an inch of sleet 2 days before the start of April.
-
Wow @blahalb09 your weather has really been crazy this year! ! So that's better right start early rather than add 4 days; ) I can't believe is still this cold :/ rainy rainy. :/
-
meow~
-
@Mumsie you have a new supplier! ! :) straight from the factory; )
-
Life is like a box of chocolates , you never know watcha gonna get:/
-
@wicket182 -- Very interesting! So what is coats? @Mumsie is the one who uses the wool yarn to knit "dusters" for people with new badges / ranks.
-
YAY! Finally back! It's been so long!
@absm Can't wait to get the app! Is it for iOS or Android, or both? -
-
Welcome back @theanonymoussomone ;) pig ears on the house tonight your just in time; )
-
@wicket182 -- I had a hard time finding where Coats was located, even after I found their website. But it does seem that they are in England, and @Mumsie could get any exotic color / type of yarn from you, right?
-
Aw man, @kathy is leaving!
-
Hello?
-
Whoa @wicket182! That's a whole lotta yarn! Thank you for the pics! That would be such a dream job for me to work there too! Coats is probably the most popular name in sewing threads, yarn, and accessories in the whole world. I've been sewing and knitting since I was a teen and have bought more Coats products than any other brand. Is Coats & Clark the same company?
@Kathy, I have been on level 14 for about 3 days and it sure sucks rocks! I can get the first shot about once in every 10 times to smash the 4 leaf clover, but the second shot with Chuck is messed up or the debris damage isn't enough to get above average! Grrrr so frustrating! I hope this mini Whine helps! Sending some lucky charms your way so go get those sticks and swine!
-
@wicket182 Thank you for teaching me about yet another billion dollar global powerhouse that I had no idea existed. @mvnla2 check out their manufacturing map at the top of page 2... they're EVERYWHERE: http://www.coats.com/files/pdf/coats_fact_sheet.pdf
-
Thanks for the link @burpie!
-
1 more day until release! We're doing last-minute attempts for iPad optimization, but they've currently been unsuccessful... so for you iPad users, it won't fill up the whole screen :/ It will be fixed in update 1.1.0, so don't fear.
-
@sweetp Coats & Clark is a crafts division of Coats, that I work for in Georgia, USA. As most in the BP appear to be over the pond, my responses will most likely be delayed. Not trying to be rude I just am not awake to give a timely response.
-
@wicket182 -- I didn't make the connection! I also bought lots of Coats & Clark back in the day when I did do a lot of sewing. Can probably still find some in the house if I organize a search party. Are they still headquartered in England?
Mumsie is in England, and Burpie in the Netherlands, but the rest of the people you're talking to are in the U.S. -- Split between night-owls, early risers, and people who almost never sleep. Visit the Members' Map in Groups, to find out where people live, and post your general location there to get your own dot on the map. Georgia is specific enough, but you need to post the location and request in the map group.
@burpie -- Thanks for the map! They aren't quite everywhere though. : D -
Speaking of yarn, see this world record of the longest ball of yarn. :D
http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/records-3000/largest-ball-of-string-yarn-thread/ -
@mvnla2, Coats may have abandoned their production facilities in the UK but they've compensated for that. Just look at that map! They can knit a scarf between any two points on the globe in an hour flat! (Could that be their mission statement?)
@SeasonsKing, Thanks for the link. I was beginning to think that chasing @Rat9's highscores was the world's biggest waste of effort ;-)
Um, please nobody mention to him that I improved on S19. This is my history with highscores in 11 seconds: www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxHVhxbtrhY -
@AngryBirdsSpaceMaster, I hope Apple isn't being too strict about their iPad requirements! Is launch day still tomorrow?
I'm afraid I'll have to wait for you to port your app to Android - I don't have any real info linked to my iPad. Oh wait, I can get one of those Apple prepaid gift card thingies. Sorted! -
We're biting our nails over here... there was a bug in the upload of the app that changed it's ID number, so apple has to re-approve the app! They've pushed it to the top of there cue, but it's over to them whether the app is out on time!
-
Has anyone seen that new Heineken commercial with a guy singing in Portuguese, I think? During it, some unseen woman does a vocal trill, and I swear, it sounds so much like Stella that I actually reset my stupid level thinking I'd accidentally flung her.
-
Hey @Kelani -- WTG! I'm really glad you are using the SD-U forum to help you get ahead. One of my motivations for keeping it going is that it sometimes improves my score.
Not sure why you're not getting notifications. Might check your notifications settings in your profile, or ask @AMSlimfordy.
For your avatar to appear in this forum, you need to use Gravatar. There is a forum on how to do this at the top of the main Old Forum page. Click "back to discussions" below. -
@Kelani do you have the gold star lit up at the top right corner? Under the word 'general' that way you'll get notification from this forum. .
Sorry tobe a popper tonight. .I'll be back. .
OB a PigKiller to go please; )
@AngryBirdsSpaceMaster it always takes time to get bugs worked out at the beginning so hang in there; ) -
@mvnla2 Well, it is very helpful, and with all that work, I bet there's some labor of love mixed in too. :). I can do Gravatar. Thanks for that tip. Hopefully kathy's tip fixes the other thing. In my profile settings, I had email notifications off and was really hoping that wasn't the cause. Notifications vs. an afternoon writing spam rules. Tough call.
@kathy Yay, a gold star! I'm back in the 2nd grade again :) I actually had that checked awhile back before anyone knew me, but also had email notifications on, so my mail got hammered. I just fixed both things, so hopefully that'll do it. Thanks!
Grr, that Heineken commercial has the worst timing. It got me again. -
@AngryBirdsSpaceMaster, I hope they release your app tomorrow! I know how stressed you must be. I'll be looking forward to getting it when you release it for Android.
-
Gaah! Abra-Ca-Bacon Challenge is killing me! Everytime I get the tnt to explode after the boulders start falling, I can't get enough debris damage to get any higher than my current score!
Ok, this calls for pulling out the ear plugs. I'll be right back!
