Plushie Tycoon Problem?
Fri Nov 05, 2004 3:17 pm
Well, I'm a bit annoyed, because I had to restart my game. I forgot to set the time to my own, and one night of staying up late to fire workers.. it was just too much effort.
So I restarted.
I set my time, pay my rents, get some materials, set jobs, and hire workers.
I do this all before 8:30 AM PT Time.
Factory of course, is supposed to open at 9 AM, so I waited anxiously for my first update, due to occour at 10:01 AM. I planned on firing the lot :P
And as it now says on my main PT Page:
Plushie Tycoon time is 10:13 AM
Nothing's happened... at all. My workers haven't produced anything, and there's been no NP deducted. I've never had this happen before?
I'm annoyed, hopefully the game starts on the next hour? I don't understand what the problem is though? Am I all alone with this problem? o..0
Edit: It's updated now, so my game's not stalled, but why 12:01 PT Time and not 10 or 11?

Its now 10.14am plushie time for me. I got my 200 plushies into my shop last night at about 5.30pm plushie time. I have still failed to sell a single one. Surely some should have sold in the 10.01am update? (ie between 9am and 10am) ?
Has the times changed and we not been told? I'll be rather annoyed, I changed my timezone so 9am pt time is 4pm for me, when I get home, but it means I have to be there at midnight. If i find now I could have used a better timezone because they havent TOLD us when they work...
Edit:
From the Help section. Does this imply that there is no POINT in changing timezone, as it uses nst anyway? :/
Edit2: well, Quahog had her's already but I havent had mine, so it can't be that.

Edit:
The game timezone can be set to match your local area. Your Factory, Warehouse and Store are working from 9 am til 5 pm NST every day. All information (Sales, Shipping, Plushies made) will be updated at the end of each of those hours.

Just in case either of you come back in here to check - the times havent changed, it's just that if the site is down during NST 10:01AM - 5:01PM ALL the following timezones will miss those same hours

A lot of people were complaining that they missed their first hour, (due to site being down at around 3-4 am NST).
My game missed not one, but TWO updates, which was rather annoying.
Things seem to have been running on time since...

Yeah, some people missed two updates, depended ont he time zone your game is in I think 
I'm enjoying the game this month, is a little tougher than past months, which is really a good thing IMO

To be honest, until this month, I hadn't played the game for.. well over a year :P
I remember enthusiastically playing it in beta and sending in tons of bug reports.
I also remember making money a lot faster o..0
The extra challenge is really fun now though...

Mmm. *nods lots* Yeah, up until month before last (maybe the month before) it had gotten WAY too easy again. I made it to over 5 million Cash on Hand in less than a week a couple months ago. Kept deleting my game and restarting, just to see how fast I could make it, then deleting my game again 5 days before the end of the month and going all out for those 5 days to see how high a score I could get 
Am enjoying the challenge of a slow start up A real lot actually *Little* frustrating at times, mostly because I forget that I dont have all ym ads and upgrades done yet, so keep wondering why everything is selling so SLOWLY! 
LOL!
