Hi tdv no you didn't break up a launch party at all, we all got what we wanted just a bit quicker (Mrstepot - gold, me - gold, Rsorour - silver/bronze) than normal! We found it just helps if we all don't have enough to go for back to back golds so we thought rather than wait between launches to restock we can use each others gold launches to use up our rubbish items whilst restocking the good stuff. It means our rockets are always flying!Oh dear - what I have started.. broke up a launch party
Perhaps we could better organise a launch party for tonight...
So list
1 - Launch organiser (person starting it should be neighbours with every one intending to join)
2. Gold -
3 - Silver (number of points you are going to put in)
3 - Silver (number of points you are going to put in)
4 - Bronze (number of points you are going to put in)
etc etc..
I can do a quick launch as long as you no one is going for gold (PEB at the ready) - or shout if you want gold...
BTW it can be two launches as I will have TDV19 and TDVCrApple2 ready to launch this evening (2000ish GMT)
Happy Helen - I think you are on the wrong thread - you need the daily thread for gifting...
Steve - that is good...
So for tonight - two launch parties (if needed)
Party 1:
Launch organiser: Steve [ETA 22:30 BST, 18:30 CST]
1 - Gold Steve [to confirm max points]
2 - Silver - [TBA]
3 - Silver [TBA]
4 - Bronze
5 - Bronze
etc..
Party 2: (in case two people want to go for Gold!!)
Launch organiser: [TBA]
1 - Gold [TBA]
2 - Silver - [TBA]
3 - Silver [TBA]
4 - Bronze
5 - Bronze
So anyone wanting to join these two parties are most welcome - please tag and make sure you are a neighbour of the launch organiser before the expected launch sequence and please make it clear if you specifically want a position. If no one is going for gold I will put in the max points, don't see any point in people wasting points for 2nd place as it is the same if you put in 900 points or 9 points] as long as we pre-agree to a certain limit.
This way you save the max points to get to gold and each person can take it in turns to go for gold. Also the lower positions are not wasted as someone can easily get bronze for just 1 point.
Does this sound like too much work or organisation?
My two games for the launch are "TDV19" on android and "TDVCrApple2" on iOS.
tdv - after reading all this my head is now hurting unfortunately both landers don't return for me for another 20 hours but I will watch this thread with interest!
Steve My lander returns about 4 hours after yours. You don't need to wait for me. I used up all my fuel on yesterday's launch so I wouldn't have much to contribute. I will stock up and wait for the next launch.Hi tdv no you didn't break up a launch party at all, we all got what we wanted just a bit quicker (Mrstepot - gold, me - gold, Rsorour - silver/bronze) than normal!

I am ready to go for gold again tonight - can start a launch as soon as my lander comes back ~ 10.30pm UK time (4.30pm US Central Time) ... however not sure Mrstepot and Rsorour will be ready! Let me know guys?
Also happy to launch tonight and just support your gold rush tdv?
Hi Mrstepot, I agree with tdv, you can always join and just put in the Add Stabs, EBs, Solid Fuels as most people have tonnes of those in stock and they help because every four hours you can add 72 points ... guaranteed Bronze without using anything valuable. It all depends on whether you have all the collections ... the funny thing with the Prometheus launches is its much easier to have all the collections to go to launch than the L1 launch (which requires the Treadmill). I have loads of all the other non-Treadmill collections so with the Prometheus I can virtually launch ever day either in seeking gold or just helping someone out.Mrstepot - While you are waiting to stockup on fuel - why not join in a launch for 2 points and get a bronze... as long as you have all the collections...
tdv - TY problem I have is that this has occured two consecutive times. I cannot come up with 2000 points so the launch that began yesterday afternoon has ZERO points. I did not add any becasue I knew I could not complete. It will expire today at 2:50 PM EST. SO right now I'm not sure if I will be able to JOIN any future launches ????? -- Bill --billsnj - Usual clap trap from their support staff... Come join the club of "GIS Sucks" - I currently have 8 tickets open with them - they keep closing it with various comments like this which are totally unrelated and I keep reopening them...
They are either talking about a promo prize or offer/sale and not about launches... - perhaps google translate does not work properly for them
If at all possible I would suggest your keep at them...
