Hi All,

Happy Independence Day ! . View attachment 3549

Well that was quite a week !

I managed to acquire 2 QLs from my flights to Apogee Map Locations. Unfortunately I have now run out of maps !
I confess to buying Golden Dice for two sessions.
As I was able to visit neighbours with these dice I had the most amazing results !
From two visits: 109540 coins, 96 Launch Chests, of which 7 PEB, 10 MS, !0 LFT.

I have built a Courthouse and am now saving for the final commercial building, Business Centre.

I am very grateful for all your gifts and have tried to return all those received.

Please Note that I am away from now until 13th July with only patchy internet access.
So Please do not send me gifts during this time as I will be unable to return them.

I wish everyone a safe and prosperous week's flying.
Regards
Harcourt


.

Don't worry about the returns. I'll just keep sending anyway.

All gifts out for Tuesday, July 5th; courtesy of !KB and !KB2.
I thank all of ye for the plentiful bounty received, and bid ye adieu until the morrow.

Looks like you will be getting arch metal detectors from me. Still, looks like a useful return item for you.

 

[jimstreet]

Happy 4th to all who celebrate such a day. I do know Aussies have a day much similar, but I forgot what it was.
All Gifts are out from !KB and !KB2. No drinking and flying, (or driving please); be safe.
@Ten33go
Glad to hear things worked out for you in the weekly rankings. @rocky has always been a big help to everyone.
As for what you stated, I agree that the world could learn a whole lot from these MMO/MMOG (Massively multi-player online, (games).
A wide diversity of people from all around the globe, gathered together in one spot, sometimes to play cards, shoot pool, go bowling, racing, flying; or any number of games that require many people to participate.
Just how is it, the leaders of many of our nations don't see eye to eye, but underneath it all, the many peoples from many countries are laughing it up and having fun. The world, yes, would be a better place.

Leaders are playing king of the hill.

Most of us have conceded that game, and are just looking for a peaceful survival niche to hide from collateral damage.

Sig updated, gifts are out, and giving list updated from today's read.

70K from tower 6.

Special thanks from the increased number of building gifts that came in today to both my primary and support accounts.

Welcome thanks for incoming flight gifts.

 

[PeterNL]

Thank you sir, and again, thank you for your help during it!

LOL. My wife fortunately understood what was going on. I snuck some time in for her as well!! *G*

yeah right

you also made it difficult for me ..the many launches gave me some collections of Rocket gardens..now i have 180 golden tokens...what should i do??...to go for a casino when the offer comes..or waiting and hopefully i can get 200 golden tokens to go for a mint

LOL. I'm in the same boat. From what I understand, Casino is first, then the bank, then the mint. Casino is next month I believe, bank in August, and mint in Sept. I only have 127 gold on Ten, and 67 on Ten2.

@PeterNL and @Ten33go . I just want to tell you this:
Bank = 5 greenies / 4 hours during 21 days = 630 greenies ( Last year, came out in July)
Mint = 4 greenies / 3 hours during 42 days = 1344 greenies ( Last year, came out in August)
Casino = 3 greenies / 6 hours during 30 days = 360 greenies (Last year, came out in September)

The total of greenies for each is on a 24 hours (if you don't sleep at all ). Once the delay is finish, you will get coins instead of greenies but you can restart them whenever you want.

No question ? for me, the best building you can have in your city is the Mint, it always depends of each player's goals.

There's no question in my mind that I'd LOVE a Mint. The only question is whether to let the one that I actually CAN afford right now which is offered first (Casino), or do I let that go, and hope that I get an additional 73 or so more gold on Ten and get that one. THAT's the problem Peter and I are having.

yes the mint is the best building. No doubt about that

He's obviously a lot closer than I am, so if I were him, I'd wait. Considering waiting myself actually. I only have 67 gold on Ten2, so getting a Casino would be gravy for me on that one.

Last year, Bank came first, Mint and after the Casino. Did you hear somewhere that the Casino will be here first this year ?

if the mint comes first then it is easy..take it if possible and if not possible i'm happy with a casino..

I thought I saw it posted somewhere. But could be wrong.

Well, if that's the case. I think in my case, it'll probably be Casino on both. If Mint is 2nd, might have an outside chance on Ten though.

I agree! I'd take a green producing outhouse if they had it and I could afford one.

THAT's the problem Peter and I are having.

The first year I played, I bought 1 building, it was the Bank which it came first. That's the only building I could buy at that time. It took another year to buy, 1 Casino and 1 Mint. I still have one of each in my city. This year, I will be able to buy more.
There was no question for me the first time I had enough gold tokens to buy a building, I bought the first one that came out in July to have more greenies than just the ones with the weekend code.

 

[Vivke]

Send out my 20 daily gifts and my list for tomorrow is ready. Thanks for all the received gifts.

Started a red launch and you're all welcome to join me.

What were the prices? What are the refresh prices?

 

[Ten33go]

What were the prices? What are the refresh prices?

According to my sources:

Bank costs 200 Gold and 800 Silver
Mint costs 200 Gold and 2000 Silver
Casino costs 100 Gold and 800 Silver

These were what they were going for last year. Restarts cost 75% of the original purchase price, as many times as you can do it.

I've noticed in your signature you need Dryer x3 - I've made a note to start gifting these from today and from then on until you have all you need.

I only have 36 gold, so guess I will miss out on that one unless you can buy them, which I don't really want to do!
