Tarot Shortcomings

dragonstorm64

        High scores in Tarot is helps greatly during Tycoon, however, it has its shortcomings.

        The facebook friend referral should never open up while playing a level, as it costs you a couple of seconds to make it go away.

        When there are 2 seconds left to flip cards, the cards become unflippable or unswappable (for the anti-bot feature).

        When one clicks on a card and the card does not flip, then click on the card again, one gets a database error.

        When one finishes Level 1, the game screen shows +5 seconds, but in reality we get 4 seconds.
        When one finishes Level 2, the game screen shows +10 seconds, but in reality we get 4 seconds.
        When one finishes Level 3, the game screen shows +15 seconds, but in reality we get 13 seconds.
        -- at this point, we have been shorted 9 seconds.
        When one finishes Level 4, the game screen shows +15 seconds, and miraculously, we get 15 seconds.
        I could go on and on.

        9 secs, 3 games a day, 5 days of Tycoon, this comes to 135 seconds GTArcade owes each of us actively participating in Tycoon.; And since we are charged 50 diamonds for additional 20 secs, I would say you owe each of us roughly 335 diamonds as a refund.; I know I won\'t see that, but it would just be better to have
        the little helper run the broken event.

        without that u got 0 munin power daily.
        Its not broken. bugged yes, broken NO
        LH only give trash reward + we got no PTS, so current tarot still far better than LH.

        you might also want to consider the uplink and downlink delay.

also they took out the roll over, used to if you had flips left after completing last level you started next attempt with those extra flips, but that is not the case with the seconds, I;also noticed it giving one less second after each level but then when next started it did bump up that last second. and some players still have tarot flips cards in inventory the 10\'s and 50\'s, maybe some 20\'s not sure., i agree that the FB thing is aggravating at best and needs a leash. there is an icon, if i want to open it i would, stop forcing it on us.

Why would a player have to consider that. With proper programming the computer is supposed to handle that. Not to mention a good network on GTArcade\'s side. I did a ping test to the site. 70-90% packet loss to GTArcade\'s site is terrible, and these are received packets. I have tested other sites and nothing near that disgusting. How about they take that into consideration?

        lol, no games is lag free, even when playing LAN u got the lag.
        also its not their fault the game is lag, if u playing locally in their server, you would get 0 packet loss, 1-10ms ping.

Never said games are lag free. Just stating that the packet loss is terrible. You can laugh all you like, but that is disgusting. Some packet loss is acceptable and understood. That amount is just way too much. That packet loss only increases the lag.

        Just so you know, I changed from 72 mbs wifi connection to 1 Gbs cat-6 cable, and had same results.; It is definitely on gtarcade\'s end.

They could easily work out average time delay during play and adjust accordingly - I\'ve played similar time based games all over the net from many countries and GTAracde as usual excel at shoddy coding, customers support and dragging their heels when things need fixing that does not generate revenue.

        you complain about couple seconds, let me tell you for the last 5 days, every time i played tarot, there will be one attempt where i have to watch at least 30 seconds went to 0 without able to flip a card. If that has not happened to you, considered yourself lucky.
