If I get an account on tapjoy, how do I know which will help me get gold coins? Is it ones by playdom or what? I do not have any interest in buying their magazines or doing their surveys!! From what I have read they are not rewarding the gold bars as promised anyway.
I've gotten a lot of gold from tapjoy, and never had a problem, but you have to do it right way... I have NEVER not gotten my gold! (I just edited this to say I've never NOT gotten the gold - basically I get it every time!)
When you get in there you find your game - hidden objects for example...
I haven't seen any magazines for sale or surveys on tapjoy, not under it's listing of gold for gardens of time anyway.
Basically, I usually deal with apps which I know I'm going to end up deleting (the war-type ones) - all my gold acquisitions thru tapjoy are for downloading the apps they have listed. No-one says you have to keep the app. You just have to download it, and then (here's the important part) you MUST get it up and running. Here's what I do:
I first go into GOT to see what my current gold level is, and take note of what the tapjoy app gold awarded will be so I know what to look for. I leave the GOT game open (don't know if you need to do this, it's just hoe I do it). Go back into tapjoy for the app and click on the link next to it to get the gold.
It will take you to the app store. Click on the button to get/install the game (I usually only pick the ones that are free to install - possible exception was for Fairway Solitaire because I knew I'd want to keep it).
Once the game is installed, you must then go to that apps icon and bring it up and running. For most of the games I get into it a little ways - put in my name or assign my character - whatever the games startup procedure is - you need to be fully in the game so that it is recognizes that you have it.
I then hop back over to GOT and wah-lah I can see the added gold.
I then hop back over to the game, get out and delete it - very seldom do I keep any of the games - answering yes to delete from gamecenter, etc.
I just did some tapjoy this weekend to unlock the last bonus scene in chapter 9.
I downloaded 2 of their social apps (I think viggle was one?)
Anyway I have NO interest in the social networking...
I got far enough into the app where I entered my email to set up the account (one time I didn't have to do an acct setup to get the gold - I just had to be in the acct setup screen). You can go into GOT to see if you have the gold yet...
Once I got the gold for each, I deleted the apps.
Again, I have NEVER not received my gold - maybe people just think they have to download it, and don't get into the app/game... I think maybe once several months ago I might have had to get out of GOT and then get back in to see the gold... And keep in mind that whenever you download any large app, you should turn off your iPad and turn it back on - reboot it... If you don't see the gold, maybe you need to go a little farther into the new game you just installed...
I like it....
