  1. We're still friends from our Splatoon squad sessions last autumn!

     

    But, I have an problem. I haven't played MK8 in months, and deleted update data for MK8 to buy cheap games in the Curve Digital eShop sale a week ago, so it's downloading now and still 9 minutes left. I'm sorry if I mess up your planning.

     

    I remember those. We can wait. Keep us updated.


  2. Cam confirm battery saving mode is gone from iOS version. Well that was dumb. Even if it didn't save much battery, being able to turn the phone upside down and put it in my pocket whilst I walked was better than having my pockets activate random buttons whist it was in there.


  3. Great GP 1 and 2 for me. Failed miserably in GP 3.

    @RedShell could you check these out for the highlight vid.

    Haunted Mansion. I avoided a butt load of fireflower throws going through the last masion bit. Past the jump.

    Yoshi Valley. I got hit by a blue she'll in first then bombarded by everyone as they passed.

    Piranha Plant Pipeway. I activated a Pirhana flower on the big jump at the end and hit some one with it by the side of me.


  4. I agree it has got a bit stale. What do we all think to making this the last night before starting again in August.

     

    I do think the best way to carry forward is still base the league on averages but an idea to add might be multipliers. For example, if you get 1st in a GP, your points are increased by x2, 2nd x1.5 and 3rd x1.25, the rest don't change

     

    If you have any ideas I am open to more sugguestions

     

    I could see something that causing the top guys to just take even more of a commanding lead though. Worth a look at to see if something like that is doable though.


  5. Do you need to litterally keep the app open? Or can you lock the screen, switch app etc as long as it's running in the background?

     

    Caught myself a pikachu, drowsy, pigey, staryu and a Ghastly (most in Roundhay park)

     

    As of now the app needs to running. Which is a pain. The Pokemon Go Plus accessory does the buzzing for this if you can get one.

    Right now, you can use the power saving option, which allows you to turn your phone upside down and it dims the screen and turns off the main game screen and just shows a logo.


  6. I may have been the cause of the lagginess. After MK I noticed that other stuff was being slow too, Internet wise and rebooted the modem and it seems to have helped. Was some funny goings on with all that lag.

    Poor night for me though.


  7. Just saw a news report about the NSPCC complaining that Pokemon Go is dangerous and children could potentially be lured into traps. Reminds me of the entirely misplaced fears there was over Pictochat when the DS launched.

     

    Also the woman from the NSPCC thought the plural of Pokemon was Pokemons, so they clearly haven't done their research

     

    There was also something on one of the morning chat shows. I caught a bit of it and they just seemed to use the "kids aren't safe" campaign on it. They did have one games guy giving his view and he did his best to quell all the NSPCC woman said. All she kept on about was how it'll lure kids into dark ally's.


  8. Yep. Just got me a Charmander laying in bed. Only thing so far is it seems to hang on the catching Pokemon animation. I catch it in the pokeball and it then seems to not do much. I can close the app and go back in and it shows I caught them Though.


  9. The world seems to have stopped for this game! It's getting unbelievable buzz. I can easily see it pushing people to get a 3DS to play a proper Pokemon game.

     

    Anyone know when it's out in the UK? Keen to play

     

    The official release has been put on hold whilst server issues are resolved. Hopefully not too long though.

  11. I haven't played a Pokemon game in many a year, but I'm genuinely excited to try this out. What's great, is that I love geocaching too and these two things could really complement each other. Kinda bummed the rollout is paused but from what I've been hearing it might be a good thing.
