mySpot | Facebook's Cafe World

I've been quite so very busy these past few weeks doing so many things.

I've been working on a new blog layout for my friend's blog. I'm studying japanese and korean languages (for now, I'm like a kinder student trying to read the hiragana and hanguk very slow... at least I could recognize them)... And I'm still studying some stuffs due to my recent team transfer... I wasn't even able to update my blog for quite some time and i'm planning to change it's layout again. :D

When I opened my facebook account (which is currently full of dusts and spider webs) I have so many invitations received for this Cafe World Game... No more farmtown, few roller coaster invitations, no more pet society, farmville, mafia wars, and the rest of those games.

I have just started my own cafe world and I still don't understand what to do with it. Anyway, I guess this game doesn't hit to me at all... I'll just keep my self busy for some other things and when I once again find interest for this game, I'm gonna play this one soon, but not too long that it would be out na.

mySpot | Roller Coaster Kingdom removal of the popularity cap; xp and item costs re-tooled

I was few points away from unlocking the "Rockin' Rocket Ride" on Roller Coaster Kingdom in Facebook. I was patiently waiting and watching my Kingdom when suddenly, the game re-loaded.

At first I thought it was just a bug or some minor problems with the game, but then I noticed that the progress bar above the game screen changed. I also looked at the rides and noticed that the Carousel was locked and the Rocket ride will be unlocked at level 20.

I was so devastated (but just over-reacting) when I saw this. I mean, how could they do this. But we have to accept the fact that we are just playing the Beta version of the game and they can do whatever they want to do because it is part of the game design as they say.

It was just so sad I was expecting the new rides to be unlocked but they just made it harder for the gamers. Well, some might not have the patience to wait for some rides to be unlocked and they may not play the game at all. I hope they thought about it first and they know what they are doing. I have nothing against them. This is just a personal point of view from an online gamer or so as what they refer to as beta tester.

Till here! Ciao :D

mySpot | Why Roller Coaster Kingdom in Facebook is slow

I've been checking out and monitoring my blog and I found out that some people finds my blog by googling 'why roller coaster kingdom in facebook is slow?'.

When I started playing Roller Coaster Kingdom in Facebook, it's actually faster to load and play from what I am experiencing right now. Well there are just some few things I found out upon playing this game.

Why Roller Coaster Kingdom is slow?
1. Mount point reaches its maximum. I think this application gets slow because of the enormous number of users who access the application. If the mount point of the server reaches it maximum, the server slows down. (Too technical huh!)

2. The larger your kingdom grows, the slower it loads the application. - I am not sure how the application runs, but I've noticed each time I add rides and stores, it runs slower or it is slower upon you load. It also takes too much memory which makes the browser runs slower.

3. Beta Version - The application is still on beta version (I guess). So there are some few bugs that are quite not fixed yet. There was one time where I upgraded my ride. During the upgrade, it counts from 0 to 100%, when it reached 100% the preloader bar exceeds its length and extended up to the end of the application window. But I guess they already fixed that.

Well, that's just what I think.. I hope you find it very helpful. If you really think it's a big problem, then try some other Facebook Applications. If you have any comments, just put it in the comments section...

Till here! Ciao..:D

mySpot | Restaurant City on Facebook

I started playing again the game Restaurant City on Facebook. And I stopped playing PetSociety. Although sometimes I still check out my pet Ian but not on full time.

I'm looking forward to hire more people here and expand my restaurant. I know this would take time but I've got to be patient.

There are so many other games to choose from in Facebook and I just liked only a few of them. It's really hard to maintain so many applications especially if you are on a tight schedule. I'm not that so busy all the time but I spend most of my time in the office and a longer time travelling in the road. (because of the traffic). And because of that, I just have a few time left to check my Apps because I have to give some time for sleeping.

Till here :D Ciao!

mySpot | Rollercoaster Kingdom in FB

Yesterday, i was on duty on my Restaurant (Restaurant City game in Facebook) when a friend sent an invitation to play a new game in Facebook, Rollercoaster Kingdom.

At first, I thought this was just about a rollercoaster game, 'cause I do have a rollercoaster game in my mobile phone. So I tried the game and find it very awesome!

The game is something like Restaurant City where you will build your own Amusement Park. You have to build/buy rides and stores so that more people will come to your park. You can also hire your friends to work at your Rollercoaster Kingdom. And you can also visit your friends' own kingdom.

So now, my browser is working slow 'cause i'm playing 3 games at the same time( Rollercoaster Kingdom, Restaurant City, Farm Town) and sometimes I play myBrute and PetSoc.

So for those who haven't tried this game yet, check it out and enjoy the fun. Ciao!

mySpot | Pet Society Addiction in FB

Hi all...

Before i go to sleep tonight, let me just share and show to you my pet in Facebook. his name is ian.

Pet Society is one the applications I use in my daily activities when using Facebook. I like this application because you can have your own pet. It's not just like any other pet games. Here, you can visit your friends' pet.

What's nice about this is that you could put clothes on them, you can have a house where your pet live. You need to increase your money so you could buy some stuffs like food, clothes, home appliances and many more. Recently, they added this garden feature which you could plant vegetables and flowers and trees and you can sell them. You can also send gifts to your friends.

And they also have this pond where you could go fishing and put them in the aquarium. This game is so addicting. I hope others like this too...

Till here, good nyt!

mySpot | Facebook everywhere....

One of my personal hobbies aside from going to gym and eating every two hours is Facebook. It is an online network society where you can add friends, send messages, post pictures, play games and many other things.

The first time I saw Facebook, I didn't like its interface. I don't know. That time, i still prefer to use Friendster. I created an account but i don't quite open it. Then some friends invited me to Tagged. I quite enjoyed using this for a short while because you can make someone be your pet (not literally). But then I got bored so I continued using friendster.

This online network was somehow important to me because it makes you connected to your friends. Same with Facebook and other social networks.

But when Facebook introduced applications and games such as Farmtown, Mafiawars, Pet Society, Restaurant City and a lot more, this caught my attention which made me keep using Facebook everytime. I still use my Friendster account.

Thanks to wiFi and my phone's internet capability, I always update my Facebook everytime. Last time i was on a bus and was stuck in traffic, I was able to open my account and updated my status. Because of that, everyone knows what's my update everytime.

So till here again, I'm gonna go back on my farm in Facebook... bye!

mySpot | Facebook Migration

One of the things that I do during my free time is that I browse the net and visit some of the online social networks which helps me connect with other people. The importance of these social networks is that it helps you find your old buddies, classmates or other people you might know.

Friendster is one of the online social network which made me busy for quite some time. Here, you can add friends (from which the name comes from), send messages and other things, upload your photos, and you can even make your blog.

I find it really useful especially when communicating with my friends here and on the other countries. You can also see their profile and know their updates about what's happening with them.

But when Facebook revolutionized the online social networking on the web, I found this more fun and enjoyable than the other one. No offense to Friendster but Facebook has so many features which is far far away than Friendster or FS as we refer to it.

There are so many applications you can used in Facebook and there are so many reasons why you should use this one.

Well, I still use my Friendster for communicating and sending messages to my friends but I used Facebook more often (because of my growing farm! Lolz...) That is why i started migrating from Friendster to Facebook...

I still use many other online social networking sites such as Tagged, wayn, and many other things. I wish i could make my own someday... I can still remember my last project in my web programming subject. I created my own networking site using PHP and MySql... It was running on my test environment but the database failed to be used online.

But then again, it's not whatever social networking you use or something else, the most important thing is that you keep your communication alive between other people.

Thanks!
