  • K done smoking mommy dearest is home..bf going to sleep so I'm going flinging for a few before my dreamwalk..sorry gals gotta take advantage of the time when i got it..
    Good news it's Friday tomorrow..and long weekend yippee!!
    OB a PigKiller to go please...oohhh Kimmiecv I'm skipping 25..for now...
  • Good luck KitKat :)

    I couldn't agree more @abcrazy it has evolved and peeps are sharing much more than they used to, some of the older group of players still don't like sharing too much but the new group which are giving a lot of the older group a nice run for their money I might add are more inclined to help the community. The bad thing about playing so far behind everyone is usually all the strats are already out there but on ocassion it's nice to be able to either come up with an actual alt strat or add details to the ones already out there!
  • Happy flinging @kathy. I'm done for today, tired of seeing the same thing over & over. Some of these levels, I just have to be doing something else too.
  • @kimmiecv I understand wanting to hang on to a top score or whatever, so I respect the desire to not reveal everything. I admit, I don't always reveal all I could either. But I also want to give back to the community that has helped me become so much better than I ever thought I could be. And to be honest, some of those shots are so dang hard, I could try to explain every detail & it might help a few & probably confuse more. Maybe someday I'll jailbreak this thing & start recording vids. Though I think I have more fun trying to describe in a way that peeps who play can get.
  • Or... Figuring out & explaining strats that someone else posted not very clearly... Like that one from a day or two ago. Like you, I thought mounds, pyramids, wth? Then I got it. Thank you for getting me to explain it better.
  • Ha thank you for explaining it better!! LOL I must have read that post 20 times and couldn't figure out mounds and pyramids!! Guess I wasn't thinking "out side the cave" enough!! :D
  • Ok time to get stuff ready for dinner. Have a good eh night? Day? @abcrazy :) Thanks for the chat and good luck in your flinging!! :)
  • G'nite @kimmiecv. I'm on CDT. Time for me to go to bed. Fling well.
  • @amslimfordy The forum call out notifications are working now per your instructions. Thanks!
  • @ABcrazy and @Kimmiecv -- I always try to explain my strats in as much detail as possible, but sometime you don't really see the details. I agree, there are some people who make a token effort, but I think a lot of people really try to provide as much help as possible. IMO it's a great honor to have someone use your strat and get a higher score.
    It's past my bedtime, although no where near Kimmie's. See you tomorrow.
  • @mvnla2 I do too. I leave out some aiming specific details that would take time to explain, and try to describe the effect that works instead because what I focus on to aim to make something work may not be valid for another platform. When I do try to explain those things, I try to explain my frame of reference.
    Come to think of it, I probably picked that up from you! My particular aiming point may not make sense on another device. So I try to explain the results.
  • @mvnla2 I also agree, it's so cool when someone mentions your strat or comment helped. So far I've only had a few of those come back to me, but I'm still new to this community. It feels good when it comes back thoug!
  • O.k well i made it through 26 :)
    *places flashlight on Kimmie booth..way overused and abused.., goodie bags all in a row..for TIG and boo..Oscar and lily and jaapie:)
    Hmm that's only 5 am i missing one?? Places extra 2 bags of goodie treats on booth..hmm
    Good night all sweet dreams..
    :
  • Where's @firebombbird, he didn't says hello like he used to. Ha, it's me and I'm baaaaaack
  • Good night @KitKat and @abcrazy sleep well :)
    @mvnla2 I know you do and you do it well just like wrw01 does! I rarely if ever have questions when I see one of your strats! And I agree, on the rare times I've actually found a strat or more often been able to give more detailed info, I love if when I get feedback from someone I've helped! One of the best feelings ever to know you've given back to the ABN community!! You sleep well to @mvnla2 :)

    *pulls out special equipment, works out dings and dents, buffs and shines and replaces batteries in KitKats flashlight and sets out candles to see her continued safe journey to Dreamland * *sticks all the goodie bags in pockets (you got everyone KitKat :)puts the extras in vault as a backup and poofs off to all parts of the world to deliver goodies*
  • I'm ssssooooo angry (more angry than the birds). The Little Moster woke up from his naps and went to play into our bedroom. Suddenly I heard a sound like someone's ripping off a paper. I went to our bedroom and that little MONSTER had ripped the tapestry from almost 50x50cm area. I can tell you for sure that at the moment I'm not so satisfied that physical punishment is against the law in Finland. Now we have to get new tapestry for the whole room, 'cause the old one is not available anymore. Yay, we sure have enough money to fix the whole house before he's even 5 years old...SH**...
  • Poor @lisko. Perhaps a carefully placed piece of furniture or decoration can cover it up for now?
  • @ABcrazy - Nope, it's just under the window and if I put some furniture there, I can't get out of the bed without hurting myself :/ And it's just under the window and there's the radiator, so we actually can't put anything in front of it 'cause otherwise we'll pay for nothing when we need some warming.
  • Hello all.
  • Hi to @all. I am so desperate and I need help with this http://www.angrybirdsnest.com/bad-piggies-road-hogs-level-r-6-walkthrough/. I lost my BP progress last time and now I can't repeat time I got using MattOG's contraption. What's funny I didn't consider it to be difficult the first time I played, I believe I got it in several tries, definitely less then 10. Now I am coping with this 4 days. I could cry and I am screaming for help. Anyone to lend me a helping hand? I tested contraption in Field of Dreams sand box trying different angles with different starts and nothing seems to work.
  • Good morning @cosmo2503! Sorry I cannot help with Bad Poggies as I don't play that one.

    I dropped in to make my own whine. Seasons ACB 1-13. I think at least the top ten scores are one-birders, but it has been very silent from those with scores above 107k. I don't ask for a minutely detailed description, but at least be given some idea how they managed it. Boy, if I EVER 1-birdie that thing, I will be blabbing in full detail to one and all!
  • @cosmo2503 -- Guess my attempt to get help from @MattOG didn't work. I looked at a couple of the walkthrough pages, and there are a lot (comparatively speaking) of familiar names. You might try asking any who are on your friends list for help. You could also ask Slim and / or BirdLeader if they could help. Good Luck! As I said, didn't work for me when I tried it a couple of days ago.
  • Did you ever get 3 stars on R-5, @mvnla2?
  • Oh, and @cosmo2503, just keep on persevering, and see it as a fun challenge, rather than a tormenting chore. One thing I have learn't is that, if I look at a task as fun and at least try to enjoy it, then I will get far better results than thinking about the negatives, even if they far outweigh the positives;) Just keep on being the resilient person we all know and love, and I'm sure we'll be getting that happy message explaining your unfathomable success in no time:D I'm sorry to hear you have lost yet another hobby that is dear to you, but I think the fact you are going back through the levels shows the type of person you are, I hope these game progress problems never happen to me;D
  • @AngerManagement -- Nope, never got 3 starts on R-5. Been trying R-6 for Cosmo's sake, but can't get MattOG's contraption to work at all.
    Unfortunately, I think it takes a lot of practice to get any of the Road Hogs stars, and once you stop playing, it takes unbelievably long to get anywhere.
  • @lisko How about draping a pretty cloth from the window and let it hang above or tuck behind the radiator? I'm sorry, just trying to be helpful. It's hard to imagine the frustration you must be feeling. :-/ Or.... Have your little monster make some pictures and use those to cover it up. It won't look real nice, but it is his handy work and his pictures will look slightly better than torn tapestry.
  • @BPC I'm with you on that one, tried everything, nothing works, I'll babble before you should I be so lucky. You are 33 places above me on the leader board so it seems unlikely.
    Glass of whinnnnnnnneeeee for you?
    I'm off to try and beat your score at least...
  • Thanks @Hunnybunny, I will take you up on that glass of whine!

    I am pretty certain those are 1-birders, going for the "sweet spot". I have had a couple low scoring 1-birders that way, but so far my current 106.7k score was with two birds. Either Big Brother has to bounce back to get first pigs, or flying debris. Both I have e peri ended, but not in tandem with good destruction.
  • What the heck? My last line should have read "Both I have experienced..."
  • Too much whine?
  • BPC you are lucky to have 106k!!! I've been redoing all levels to try to get above avg and 1-13s avg just keeps rising and I'm getting nowhere!!!

    OB something to go please - a nice cup of tea to take to bed! Thanks a million
  • @BPC @Mumsie two hours later, haven't got anywhere near my existing 103k
    Grrrrrrr
    Off to bed, hope you two have more luck
  • @Mumsie I know you are right, but right now that level is my lowest standing in all of ACB, so it is particularly annoying! Oh wait, it was when I first posted my whine, but I did manage to pick up 1k this morning, still not happy though ;

    @Hunnybunny, sweet dreams!
  • Nighty night ladies and gentlemen, hope you all have sweet dreams, and I hope a bit of whine tuesday rubs off on @bpc, @hunnybunny, @cosmo2503, @mvnla2, @kathy & @kimmiecv:D
  • OB a PigKiller please...i gotta a funny story for you:)
    Just flinging away in tatoonie getting frustrated bored..thinking out loud to myself
    "who thought of this game?" Crazy really shooting birds at pigs? Crazy what harm has a pig ever caused a bird i ask you..now not in virtual life.i know i know you been there...but I'm talking REAL life..where people actually talk to each other not type at each other..soo anyway there i am sitting in place 281 pondering out loud "what would a Doc think if i told him its very exciting when i go from 281 ° °- to 4th place while not paying attention because I'm talking to myself about the craziness of birds killing pigs...
    Ermmm...i think i need a visit to the forum of dr. Feelgood...hee hee
    Oh noo noo I'll take the PigKiller to go ty:)
  • @Kathy -- In real life, feral pigs really do kill birds by destroying their habitat and eating their eggs (if they nest on the ground). Marmosets also do. I found this out from Bird Life International as a result of getting my avatar and suggesting that other people do the same. Idea was nixed by BLI because of copyright issues. But very interesting.

  • @Lisko -- We were out walking in the neighborhood this evening and met a woman and her 2 kids from Helsinki, Finland. She and her husband, whom we didn't meet, are renting a house a couple of blocks from us! She seems very friendly, and her English is excellent. Don't know how they'll adjust to LA, which often isn't that friendly. They are renting a nice house with a yard and nice view of a park. The house is old for LA, i.e. built in 1920, but has been recently renovated. Fortunately for them, our neighborhood is pretty friendly, and there are lots of young kids.
    She seemed to think most people in the U.S. don't even know where Finland is, let alone where the capital is, which may be true. : (
  • @mvnla2 ty i haven't checked the link yet but i will right after saying this
    I now know i am crazy bird-tester just sent me to POTJ 36 challenge with 33 minutes to go i improved up to 3rd i think..[could be wrong] but bf interrupted with talk of Work r that he said the conversation was over (am i making sense) so anyway i missed the end of the challenger (which i don't normally participate) and i just got so angry at that..
