Back on the forums after a lengthy time away and I have a few questions. 1. I placed on top 100 and have still not got my coins/medals. How do I claim them? 2. I "finished" the mail quest but only built a mail kiosk and broadcast tower. Is that it?
Referring to the world map monthly challenge... After some very intense flying, I got a first place for Saint Petersburg and a second place for North Observatory. About 11 hours ago (at around 1000hrs BST), I had a message pop up saying "congratulations - for your 2nd place," and it said that my reward was something like a black barrel of oil, two gold tokens and about eight silver tokens. There was something else that looked like a tube of toothpaste, and also one item towards a spaceship quest. I got no further message about the first place that I achieved so I've had zero reward for all my efforts on this destination.
Separately, I'm finding that the game is crashing frequently (on the iPad2) and this may be related to visiting the world map and/or the IOS7 update. It's like going back in time because when the game does crash and I reopen it, it re-sets to the previous game state. Very frustrating.
Finally, back to the monthly world map challenge, I had a look at the leader boards for the green jet flight this morning. After just 11 hours, one player had flown the green jets to six different destinations and had accumulated a total number of flights amounting to 409. As green jets average maybe 3.5 to 4 hour duration, it must take a massive commitment in effort, oil, passengers, greenies, etc to achieve what this player has done. Bearing in mind that I won the monthly challenge last time with a grand total of 91 flights, I am now wondering whether it's worth while even trying to compete against such dedicated and determined players who will win at all costs... (Especially when you don't get a prize for achieving first place, and the second place gives a relatively poor reward). I'd guess that getting a place below 3rd, may not give any reward at all,
I'll probably keep flying at normal rates until there's a new quest, but I'm not expecting to ever again achieve a top three place for any one destination.
