[auntkymitoon]

At 10:45pm Pacific Time. the test server went down for maintence for the following repair!!!!

January 26, 2006 [sv1.0.18.39.test.v2]

• Made more changes to make sure the Grand Touring trophy is properly awarded.

OK Guys.... Let's give the Developers a break and a round of applause
TRUST ME..... we don't have many, if any 119's awaiting 120 on the Test Server unfortunately. Jacee Lee is way up there and I did a VP with today a Blue Cat 117/8, and in CFO tonite there was an awesome craner who also was 118 however besides probably Prince JC Wackyface (I think you should choose sound-oooooopppsssssss)
I have never seen a 119 on Test.
ONLY TT Developers were 120's before this so it stands to reason by all the posted information. the bug deals specifically with going from 119 to 120 which you all so richly deserve and worked very hard for but let's not take pop shots at the folks who developed the first multi-player international wonderful game all the time lol.

THEY DID TEST IT guys ...here's proof from yesterday plus a momento of the one and only time I will EVER hit a Leader Board with a DEVELOPER ROFL..... This developer was at the tracks yesterday afternoon obviously as soon as the conmplaints were received.

I neglected to check his laff after .... wonder if Dev's will now be like
125 or something lol since they were 120when we could only get 117

THEY DID A REPAIR JUST NOW ON TEST so give them 24 hours guys. Being an avid TESTER, I assure you, these Developers go out of their way to be responsive and they work hard! I know for a dead fact they are hearing you and here's the proof-
CRAZY OCTOBRAINS is a TT Developer

HELP! I am a 111 laffer and have not been awarded this trophy either, been racing my heart out doing all the tracks and not trophy yet. Just exactly do you have to do to get it? HELP!

This last bug I did give them a break because I didn't think there was a 119 on test to run into this issue. What I don't give them a break on is the fact that the same issue we ran into first, not getting the qualifies, was experienced and fixed on test. I am not sure why, as an avid tester, you give them a break on this because you guys as testers discovered and reported this in the test environment. Then Disney, for whatever reason, decided to release the same bugged code that you testers pointed out as flawed onto the open servers without the fix you guys helped them discover or any kind of disclaimer that the code was still defective. I don't know about you but if someone asked me for help and I gave it to them, then they turned around and did it their original way, I would have to question why they asked for my help in the first place. Becasue they didn't think we had raced enough to get trophies that, if you are lucky, can be earned with a minimum of 75 races, they decided to release another bugged fix, which you testers helped them fix yet again on test, to the open servers and tell us too bad you have to race again! So, after two bugged fixes and a minimum of 150 races, to log in to do 12 more races just to watch my toon stay at 119 has left me with a questionable outlook on Disnney's developement abilities dispite having a large test environment with very helpful toons to iron out their "bugs". Maybe all of this is political decisions inside of Disney instead of developemental issues but from now on I will read the release notes on test and assume Disney did not fix a single issue before porting their code to test. Now that I have that vented, I just can't wait until the day I can race again to receive a trophy I should have got the first time

Heyyyyyy Duke... I hear you buddy! and can't say I blame you for beng irritated however i am a glass half full kinda girl so here goes nothing lol...

last night I entered 2 toons of mine into a race and let Recognition time out and lose 500 tickets so aunt kymitoon could get her 110 laff boost by getting her final sweep. my test Toons are way way higher in laff than I ever intended but to help out with all this racing nonsense, I began to avidly race 2-3weeks ago while you guys been at it for MONTHS. tomake a long story short, when I reentered the next race on recognition, suddenly both toons immediately timed out and were refunded their tickets.

fter reviewing the release notes, I discovered this "issue" specifically is listed as being repaired a week, maybe two weeks back however clearly based on it occuring yesterday to me-it IS NOT 'repaired'.

We have 2 120 Toons on open now-both of whom obtained their 120 racing in Sillyham after the last repairand neither toon had 25 sweeps PRIOR to the last update as all you guys do so.......... the good news is- anyone with 119 who now completes their 25 sweeps shall get their 120 when earned as deserved at that time. The horriffic part is themost wonderful hardest working best on the planet toons like you guys are still left holding the bag and TrUST ME- I was amazed at the number of you guys out there who were all in Sillyham today and albeit my joking speed chat.... "You need more laff points!" then "Don't hold your breath (bell flop)" I feel you pain darlin and all's I can say to you is ... there are plenty of us players out here that recognize how truly awesome you guys are and we bow graciously to the select group of you guys who are presently "CHEATED" out of this final glorious reward and for your sake and many of my friends, I absolutely hope this is repaired with the utmost haste and diligence!!!


YOU GUYS TOTALLY ROCK -even if youare only 119!
In my eyes, YOUARE THE TOAST OF TOONTOWN-all of you ! BRAVO!!
