iPad Daily Trading Thread for October 2012 (Part 1)

[Charles Prince]

Gifts sent out to sundry blanks. Almost no names showing now and I never seem to get them back, even briefly. I have no idea who my friends are now

Have just had an idea that might work with some people. How about taking a screen shot of part of your airport and using it as your avatar? I visit someone with two level 5 runways only, with hangars separating them. Wonder who that is? Is there something in Waverly Huff's airport that could help identify it to make sure the gifts keep coming until the gifts glitch is sorted? If anyone wants to try this, I would suggest using your runway area as that is usually clearer and easier to identify.

Good idea!! My avatar is also my runway area. I've added 3 circles to make it more unique.

Hey! I've found you! You are a friend and I have sent you a gift today. Have no idea what I sent, but you can't have everything ...!

 

[xTenneTx]

Lol! And I was about to send you what you need, just to discover that I'd already sent you a gift too! Oh we'll, ill try again when the gifts reset!

Do you still need a cooling chamber? I can send one tomorrow morning if you promise not to return it! Have been swapping cooling chambers with someone for days. I don't need them and they probably don't still need either! Someone is also sending packaging machines which I can't return. Have been doing a send in return just to keep in the gifting loop but no idea what is arriving the other end

 

[Remstrah]

Still in Need. Pls add me as your neighbour if you feel too

 

[xTenneTx]

Have enough packaging machines now thanks. Getting ready to build the flight catering facility, just need the defroster.

Remtah, I've just added you as a friend.

 

[bubbajed5711]

Hello and thank you for the gifts, I still can't see neighbors names.
I need fuel supply x9 if anyone can help

 

[Gdog]

Great idea Charles.

I have tried to add Charles, Whanna, Gt City & George_61 as friends today.

Patrick would you send me tv panels for the next 3 days please & Daddy boo 3 av filters. I will send flight catering & oscillating beacons unless you say otherwise. Anyone else on level 32 or higher please send the grinding machines & controllers.

Thanks for all gifts & have a great weekend.

Hi Neighbors!
Thanks to everyone who have been sending me gifts.

Boy, was I surprised this morning when all my neighbor's name showed up. This time, before I did anything else, I wrote them all down. Now for the surprise...

I looked at the neighbors I had been sending gifts and realized many of my old neighbors were not included. They were still my neighbors, but just not the ones I thought they were. I love having new neighbors and sending them gifts, but it bothered me that I had been neglecting my old neighbors. I've been exchanging de-icers with a couple of level 35 neighbors, but while I had thought one of them was Mkuoie86, it wasn't. I still don't know how to remedy this, as I'm sure my names will fade away shortly.

I know this is going to sound corny, but the kids have grown up! The neighbors who used to be Level 25, are now Level 28. the ones that were 28 are now 33. As neighbors reach Level 35, they all blend together. It will be nice when we finally get the update to have a reunion.

I had an interesting challenge yesterday sending Offhip2 a gift. After going through my blank neighbor list and examining neighborhoods, I was able to send a gift to Offhip2 as a Level 20 neighbor. Don't you know today Offhip2 is now a Level 21 neighbor. The challenge continues. I guess we will all have to just return the same gift we receive until we get a fix.

Great idea, CP! Still can't send gifts. Is anyone else having this problem?
Cheers,

How do you save your screen shot? Where is it saved? I see how to take a screen shot. It then says, save it or publish it. When I click save, where does it go?

I used my iPhone & then uploaded onto my iPad as I had the same problem as you!

 

[Charles Prince]

For the screenshot, I just used the iPad one - press the square button on front plus on/off switch on opposite side simultaneously. This saves the current screen to the pics in the camera. I then edited it by cropping to take out stuff like the top and bottom bars. This also seems to reduce the file size as the avatar cannot handle large files.

 

[Charles Prince]

Gdog, I have found you in my neighbours. Nice airport!! it doesn't look as if I can help with any of your specific needs so will just send deicer, if that is OK?

That'd be great, thanks. Your idea is working.
Just got an email from my pal Denis @ GI saying my case has been resolved...oh yeah!!!!!

 

[Charles Prince]

Tom, I have checked through all my level 35 neighbours (in fact, all over level 30), but you do not seem to be there. Have tried to invite you but that didn't work. Guess we're stymied until GI pull their fingers out

Thanks for the help with my avatar. I found taking a photo and then sending it to my IPad was easier. I would have preferred putting my initials into my runway, but short of that, I chose to show my multiple catering facilities alongside my four runways.

I remember your setup from The Good Old Days but have checked and you are not a neighbour now. Of course, I am unable to add you again. Can you try in reverse? I loved visiting you, a real one stop shop for all our airport needs!!!
