Let the Popularity contest begin

 

ohh thats a neato way to do that

 

what is the "emissary" program and who is social type? Is this yet another social site thingy like FB? I gotta say.. the number of sites we are being pushed of to is gettin outta hand. For myself if it aint posted here I never hear of stuff cause I wont touch social sites with leppers hands to be honest. Specially evil big brother face book.

 

The emissary program is a Facebook app run by MindArk. My guess is Social Type is the company actually managing the app.

Can I just ask, do you have to have unlocked your Arkadia Badge to view the competition on the app, or will the pics be placed alongside the current (calypsian) social and action challenge categories?

Thanks.

 

Thanks Rick...
I assume since I dont own a cell phone that an App is something for one of them new smart phones? I was serious when I say I wont touch social media with leppers hands. I am totally clueless when it comes to all that stuff. If I want or need to talk to friends I do it the old fassion way. Get off my ass and go see em. Or talk to them on skype since that is my RL phone service.

 

I am in same boat as Cybog Bill I am clueless when it comes to that Face book app crap.
And why would you expect to jude this contest off a single picture to me the people voting should actualy visit the Apts to see what they realy look like because I can see there is a huge difference from the picture to what is actualy there. I see in the pictures some people have items that are not there when you go to there because they can be taken by any avatar.
I had a prety good idea this would turn into a train wreck and it looks like its going that way

 

This particular "App" is based wholly on Facebook in the browser. You might be able to get it on a mobile device, but I don't know.

As for social media, I'm on Google+, just because I already had the Google account (don't really use it that much) and for my business presence.

Actually, that's not quite true... Cyrus went to each of the apartments to verify they looked the way they did in the picture. Only the owner can drop/pick up in an apartment. So that means that if the apartments don't look the same, it's because the owner moved something. No one else can.

And they can't give out the apartment numbers because you can go look at the terminal and see who owns it and vote for the person rather than the apartment.

Hmmm Maybe true for inside an apt but not on the roof top so you might want to look again

 

Only the owner of floor 6 can drop/pick up stuff on the rooftop

Wamma bet

 

If I understand it correctly that you mean you want to bet, right? Come to my apartment Celeste North 12 Floor 6 and rooftop pick up my Barbecue then you win 300 ped from me, if you can't pick it up then give me 150 ped. Deal?

Edit:My apology, so things on rooftop can be pick up in special situation. I don't have pergola so I would never know, but now I knew it. Glad I didn't put my BBQ on pergola or I gonna lost 300 ped

 

Lol Wild Bill and Yao-Te, looking forward to the winning answer of this 'bet', if the owner restrictions on a rooftop apt aren't working many of us would sure need to know (not to mention the dev team). Maybe Bill is thinking of the old terraces/patios on Calypso properties?

 

No he isnt, the current issue on rooftops is their very low hight, if you have for example a pergola which clearly is designed to be outside and put it on a rooftop it will easily reach over the owned property boarder on the rooftop and every item you attach to the pergolas upper half will be outside of your property, means if you attach a chandelier or curtains or hang something in the pergolas roof it can be picked up by everyone. There is quite a few other items which exceed rooftop hight too.

The other issue is that everyone can enter rooftop regardless of property settings so everyone can get up there and try picking things up.

 

I hope the claimed land on the roof can be raised to just a bit higher than the pergola top then I can hang some nice lights

>^.^<

 

You cannot drop anything on anyone else's roof, this I know for sure as at the Arkadian Fashion Show on Mel's roof I was trying to throw ped at the contestants and couldn't.








Tippin'

 

Thanks for the info John, in hindsight I do remember hearing something about that issue, just don't think it's in the bug report section, and doesn't mean anything placed on the roof is free to be picked up by anyone if the apt is restricted, but I'm sure some of you have passed this info on to the dev team. Just watch the height of anything placed on the roof tops for now as you say.

Apologies Cyrus for this somewhat off topic discussion of a bug, back on topic folks please (including me )

 

I'm pretty sure they said they'd be working on it... But he didn't say rooftop.. he said apartment.. so my answer still stands.

 

Never said I could pick your stuff up

I will make this easy for you

But there are items in one of the roof top madness that are in the picture but not at the apt now because where they are placeed they could be picked up by anyone.

I know this because I was going to place the same items on my roof top but was not able too due to the fact I got the warning message saying it could be picked up from another avater.
