Anybody Playing My Town 2?

[bigbridge59]

Called APPLE........WHOAIZE ME......

Now I can call it a much better moring to every one.!!!! How is everyone? I hope all is well......
Dame near had condolences for me this morning. I got up and my IPOD WOULDNT TURN ON....!!!!
I set into a little panic mode.....OMGOSH...I couldnt tell everyone good morning today, I couldn't check into my town to set my timers, I couldn't see if anyone might have gifted me (thank you all very much if anyone did. As I write this letter, I HAVE NOT YET even went to my screen. I had to share my experience with everyone first !!!), and I knew I couldn't remodel my town today or whenever. Whoaiz me, Whoaizme, (Sweating, small panic, wringing my hands over and over.......what am I gonna do? A little over dramamazation (?spelling) the fact. No, not really that bad, but I was really fretting and worrying.......
So, I called apple. I told them that my IPOD had been charging all night, I got up this am and NOTHING...NOTHING!
Anyway....FYI They will ask you for your serial number. So keep that handy some where. Thank goodness I remembered that I had posted a letter I had sent to Booyah and transferred it to this site and I was able to get the info off of a posting here.
Anyway, so here was the fix.....They had me press the botton on top of my IPOD and the "home" button on botton front of the IPOD screen at the same time for about 12 seconds. My screen came back up showing a "apple". then I hit the home button and my BEAUTIFUL APPS APPEARED........What a sight .
Life is good.....I still am thinking on giving my Ipod to my son and buy me a IPAD with income tax money as a treat for myself for a change.....
Does everyone like their IPADS that they own? Everyone like playing MT2 on it, ok?
Ok, now I am going to settle in, open up the doors, and start running my business today. Running late today......doors should have been opened up today at 8am (its my day off).
You all have a good one!
Remember keep that serial number handy for APPLE.

Check in glitch

I had a weird thing happen this morning. I was check in to one of my biz and when the brown box popped up an the name on the biz it was a biz I never heard of before. I checked into sak's and some eye optical shop popped up. I wonder if its related somehow to losing so many popularity #.

On an other note how cute would space aliens or astronaut be walking around from the space station.

I hate when I get scares like that, by the way what is your ID just in case I haven't added you yet. I probably am skipping over you somehow as I scroll through but I can't recall your town name either

Calling DONRAV'S town...

Does anyone have a ID number for DONRAV'S town? He franchised me , and sent me coins yesterday. I wanted to thank him in Return.

In the IPOD under settings, do you turn off the GPS tracker only for the MT2 APP itself of the button that turns off all of the GPS to ALL the apps, and it also says turning off this will not let you be able to find your IPOD if lost?
I am thinking you just hit the button on the MT2 app and shut that box to off?......Thanks...

Ok guys, did my color, font, and smileys change on your end.....?

You only need to shut it off for the app itself, and upon quoting you it appears you didn't place the text inside of the tags.

Ipads

Good morning,

I know how you feel about the sudden "OMG it wont turn on heeellppp" moments. It has happened to alot of us as well.

You asked about the ipad. Trust me, get one, and you wont ever let it go.. I have the original Ipad from 2 years ago, and I absolutely love it. I use it every single day. I would have liked the ipad 2 because it is lighter, thinner and it has a camera so I could do video chats. Since I still have my original one, Im going to wait a while yet.. Maybe Ill wait til Ipad 3 comes out first Maybe you could.. I hear its going to be better supposedly. As for playing my town 2 on it.. MMMMMM its fabulous The bigger screen does help see the game much better!! So definately think about getting the ipad, you will love it, and wonder why you never got it in the first place.

Cheers,

Fun glitch from the other day...so before Booyah changed population gifts from 850 people to a measly 175, Pekman left me a gift at my Domino's Pizza. I open it, get my 850 peeps, then see another gift. Not so unusual, I do find multiple gifts left on a business from time to time.

But this second gift is also from Pekman! Open it, more peeps, see a third box. Rinse and repeat. I ended up opening a record 8 gifts from Pekman containing population. So what was intended as a gift of 850 people turned into 6,800!

Thanks again for that Pekman. ;p

WOW! What a windfall I have absolutely no idea how that happened, I wish it happened to me

On another note, someone called Cuban something something sent me a gift the other day. Before I could press "Visit town", it had gone off my screen, and now I can't find you. If you are on this forum, do identify yourself. I would like to return the gift.

 

[Aw5678]

Good evening, I think Barracuda or someone else answered this like 10 pages ago. The percentages are thought to be related to the level of the business. That's 5% for every level, for a max of 50%. So if you franchised a business of mine, I would see your name in my stat next to 5%. When you level up your franchised business to 2, I'd see 10% and so on....

In the attached image, you'll see that three people franchised the business. The wealthy (MT2 Billionaire and Lammieville) have fully upgraded the franchise on their end, so I get the 50% bonuses. Townville has upgraded up to level 6, which give me a 30% bonus...

On the other hand, if you're looking to franchise a business, the bonus percentage you see for a business in someone else's town should correlate with it's level. So, you should see a bonus of 35% on a level 7 business.

Hope this helped...

Yup, that makes sense! thank you for the break down.

----------

Wow.

After reading all of this, I'm glad I'm broke, business- and land-poor, and ambitionless.

It's like the game mirrors real life...

Off to sleep.

Meaning, have it all = boredom? Or never enough land, bucks and always trying to find a way to loop-hole more coins?

....either way, you are quite right and very wise. (sheepishly looks at feet for being included in that group and vows to be a more greatful and present person)

 

[Volki1USA]

I was stuck on that one too. I searched around for a business that was within 25 m, and then built it, and checked into it. After you check into the cafe, you have to check into all the other types of businesses, hence why I built the business.

To do this, I went into the check in page, and up the top, where it says "search" I put in one letter, and saw what came up. It offered a whole lot of other businesses that don't usually show. So go through the alphabet until you find one then go into businesses and type the name into that search.

----------

And no, you don't get an award, because there will always be more goals, every time they update.

Same here. Two weeks ago I tried to check-in on a restaurant while literally standing on its doorstep and the app said I am 70 feet away. I had to walk all across the parking lot to find the right spot. And then I got stuck for over a week
with the doorstep check-in of a cafe.

Now yesterday evening while at home I turned my phone's location finder off and suddenly I had a cafe and a salon on top of my "nearby business" list, both less than 25 feet away and marked with the bullseye & arrow. And checking-in on the "nearby" cafe gained me my doorstep bonus.

Even better, the next required doorstep check-in was a clothing business. Having the second "nearby" salon on the list, I checked-in on that one and it gained me the clothing doorstep check-in bonus even though these were two different categories. I did the same with six more doorstep check-in requirements using the cafe and salon over and over and it worked for all kind of business categories.

I am not sure if that's a glitch or what to make of it but you might want to try it too. Good luck!

Neither. I'm far from bored; in fact, I really can't afford it. I don't know how much time I have left, so I try to live each day to the fullest extent possible - even though it's usually from my chair and I'm usually fighting off sleep as long as possible.

As for the game, I'm still a diehard old school player. I don't do loopholes, save for over a week to get enough coins to buy that next piece of land, and try to design an interesting, amusing little hamlet. Although, I may have to cross to the dark side and do the stock exchange thing just to be able to afford additional land. Again, art imitates life. The prices for land are what you pay for land/housing in California (and just about everywhere, it seems).

I just about fell off my chair laughing at your post. I'm far from wise, and I'm probably a greedy slob. But I do try to be grateful for what I have, although I still haven't gotten over selling my Vette.

I LOVE my iPad. Our stuff is still in storage from our last move, and that includes my iMac. I was lucky enough to get the last iPad in SoCal (we were living in a gorgeous cabin in the San Jacinto Mountains at 6000 ft.) when they first came out. At the time, it was just beginning to get difficult to get out of my chair, so I wanted something I could hold in my lap. Because this does everything I need, I was able to pack up the big computer instead of lugging it around and just tuck this into my knitting bag.

The only thing I don't like about it is the keyboard. I type fast, and it's difficult to touch-type on a flat screen. The problem was easily solved, however, with a wireless keyboard. I also bought a case from a company called Sena which has an easel built into the back, soi can stand the pad upright and at an angle for easy viewing and typing. It works great.

As for playing this game (and every other one I play), it's terrific. I'm still amazed that computers are in color (LOL), and the colors and graphics are insane. It's also fast. I got the pad with the highest storage, and I'm now glad I did, since the games are such memory hogs from being graphics intensive. I'd highly recommend treating yourself.

The ironic part of all this is that Mr. Goddess hates Apple. He's a LINUX guy and even partitioned my iMac to runnhis stuff on. I wound up giving him my Compaq to use in his last job. Then, when he started working for his new company, they gave him a computer to use at home and in the office. Which one? The big Mac Book Pro. He's got a 27" screen at work which he docks the notebook into. I took one look at that and asked if his boss had any which might be left over and needed a home. Somehow, I don't think he ever asked.

(grumble)

Lol oh...

I was 'old school' the same way... I saved and saved for each piece of land and each stupid condo. Then I did cross to the dark side not long ago. When I first found this forum and went "oh- well, that sounds easier than what I've been doing... But, I don't want to change my pretty town." and that lasted for about a week. Then I bought a plot of lnd I had saved and saved for. And put one more (I had one already) se on it. Then when I hit $120,000 again, I put another. And the coins really stacked up and I thought, 'wow! I can have another plot of land in no time!' and the monster had taken hold! Lol

I've switched my town back since, but you're right, the land prices are a bit hard to swallow if your playing the 'old fashioned' way. $1.3M coins? C'mon, then wait 24 hours for it to clear? And then somehow have coins left over to build on it? Lol you're right, it's southern ca ocean front living prices. The 5 bucks to 'finish now' are the closing costs.

bigbridge59 - Off-topic yet kind of related...iPad3 Rumored Release March 7, 2012

bigbridge59: Just to make your decision more difficult, there are rumors that #3 will be released on March 7th.
I too am thinking of getting an iPad with a bigger screen so I can finally find my Cupid. LOL!! But seriously, I've had the opportunity to use an iPad1 and I loved it.

I'd love all the bells and whistles of the 3 that is sure to come with it, but I do not require super-duper capabilities, just routine spreadsheets, word processing, play a movie, web browsing. So I'm thinking once the iPad3 comes out, the older iPad2's price will drop. BUT, my concern is the 3 correcting any shortcomings of the 2? Does anyone know?

 

[Dhelsdon]

Just noticed a weird bug on the placement of a building I franchised,

I zoomed in all the way so you can see better, notice how the two are kind of jammed together..

Dhelsdon - Spacing Glitches

I've encountered spacing glitches similar to what you described:
- two condos were jammed next to each other.
- two Stock Exchanges literally stacked on top of one another. It was really nice because that gave me extra space. But then I thought maybe one SE vanished completely. I moved things around and the 2 were still there.

In both cases, after messing around with all the moving, the game corrected itself.

Mr. Goddess needs to get over it and love the Mac. (Keep in mind the name of this site )

Have a nice day, Mrs. Goddess!

bigbridge59 - Turning Off Location

bigbridge59: Good morning again.
I've done both: turned off the iPod's location service and turned off the MT2 location individually and together. For me, no difference between the two.

But it seems I'm a little different from what others here have described. My primary location is San Francisco. While messing around I turned off my iPod's location (not the MT2 app), I unknowingly set my secondary location to Paris, France. I have never been able to change my Paris location. I can only buy SF and Paris business with coing, but not anywhere else. Annoyingly when franchising, even nearby SF locations cost Bucks. I've turned things off and on and no luck. I am completely assigned to SF and Paris.
On the other hand, I've never had any problems like losing my game, so in the long run, it was alright.

In the IPOD under settings, do you turn off the GPS tracker only for the MT2 APP itself of the button that turns off all of the GPS to ALL the apps, and it also says turning off this will not let you be able to find your IPOD if lost?
I am thinking you just hit the button on the MT2 app and shut that box to off?......Thanks...

Ok guys, did my color, font, and smileys change on your end.....?
