Very much like a screenshot of a miss calculated winning hand if it happens again. I've had maybe 2 reports since the initial release, but no hard evidence for me to replay.

I think it's a result of people not realizing the trump until a few tricks in, then trying to remember how things worked earlier.

Happened to me once or twice where things worked like I thought they should before something unexpected happened. Then I noticed I'd been playing wrong.

Full disclosure. I was in the toilet, it happened on the first hand and I was wondering why in the hell I had the lead. Triple checked the trump, but my boss was all of a sudden asking if that was me in the stall because he called a meeting with no notice for 9:00 and it was 9:03. Thus no screenshot.

I've had a couple other times I thought it miscounted but it was always on the last hand and before the tap to continue button so I probably just forgot a domino that was out there.

You're telling me. Took me a minute to decide if I wanted to answer him. He's a nice enough dude but chatting while pitching a loaf is a little more than I'm comfortable with.

You've never seen me do work before. I put Fatso with Travel Scrabble to shame.

The question that everyone wants the answer to...

Did you have the sound effects turned on?
Quincey P. Morris

To which sound effects are you referring?

I got a chuckle thinking about hearing the shuffling sound effect coming out of the stall.

Okay, so I pinned down the code that was keeping Jay from playing his high tile, I'll keep it in for this next release...but I think the logic could be improved a bit here.

Right now, for the first move of the hand, your partner will play the highest tile he can in an attempt to take over the lead for you. I'm wondering though if I need to tweak the code so that it plays the lowest tile that still beats yours to take the lead?

Done....and in the new beta.

From the newest beta. I wanted to try the new logic. 2s were trumps. I threw 2-1, partner threw 2-0, the rest is history.
Philip J Fry

Or....maybe I didn't.

I updated it at the last minute this morning. Are you using beta #3 or beta #4?

So does the game work better on the toilet?

The sound effects echo off the walls and give it a surround sound effect. You'd swear you were in the Chicken.

I updated this morning around 7:30 but I think it was still beta 3. I'll get beta 4 and give it a try.

Using 1.1.2.

The bidding is getting stuck so that I am always the first bidder once I become the first bid. This is the first version I noticed this problem... Help. Great game, but this is a major flaw.
Philip J Fry

Should be fixed in about a week, but what I believe is happening is you are touching the screen before it gets to the code that shifts who gets to start the bid off(my fault for coding it that way). If you make sure to wait until the "tap to continue" message appears, I think it will resolve the problem.

If that doesn't work, let me know. My reflexes have been too slow to reproduce it myself.

Anxiously awaiting and checking this forum regularly. Haven't seen an update in a while, but I miss some posts.

Android update:

Not ready yet. I have the first 30% of the game ported, but none of the AI. I may dabble with it sometime this weekend.
