How can I move ahead?

SS:)


There's Poogle races, the next one is in 5 minutes. Here's the link:

Here is what I get when I click on there,

A crying wocky saying

Quote:
Sorry, this game is unavailable...


any suggestions?

SS:)


Are you from Australia? Or under 13? As it is a form of betting you are not allowed to play this type of game. I believe you can change your country to avoid that.

You have the youngest-age account. Poogle Racing is a gambling game. Youngest-age accounts cannot gamble.

Is it unavailable for you because you're using an under 13 account and Poogle Racing is "gambling"? I don't think there is a way to bypass this unfortunatly (perhaps writing to support might shed some light.)

Hi there, Yes, you are 100% correct, I just got a friend to log in and check on their account and they are over 13 and sure enough the poogles were right there,

This would have to be the unfairest thing TNT have ever done, Making the plot only accessible to those over 13..

How unfair is that,,, We just spent hours mapping our temple ..

SS:)

EDIT: Yes, I am in Australia also... Is there a way to change my country, Though we are also under 13, so Im behind the 8 ball on both counts. :cry:

I also wonder why Turdle Racing is there and OK.. what is the difference? its crazy.

Yes! My genius of a fiance found where I messed up on my map after about 15 minutes of looking at it. I *love* having a smart guy as a significant other. Smartness is so under-rated.

you can change your country by going to your user prefs which is under the help topib on the side bar..it'll be a little bruce icon...anyway, even if you change your country, if you signed up as an under 13 account, it won't help, because once an account is created you can't change your birth year on the user prefs screen...

I would take Runevalkyrie's advice and write to them about this. I see no reason to restrict the plot to over 13 only, it must have been unintentional.

Oh, and I forgot to say Thank You to everyone for being so helpful. If I didn't have morale support I would have given up!

There is no option to change my country in the profile.

I made a new topic in the "Help section" about how I could change my country ( as I do think this could be Aussie specific, since it says "unavailable" ) where as all other gambling games just dont even show up.

So hopefully someone can help me to find where the option to change country is, since the only thing in my prefs is the ability to change my Password.

Thanks so much for helping everyone :) , this is just so frustrating, we spent hours mapping that temple.. why dont TNT consider that under 13s from Australia might like to do the plot too...

so disappointed...

They've probably simply forgotten that under 13s and Australians don't have access to Poogle Racing. Once the matter is brought to their attention, I'm sure that they will either temporarily lift the ban or change the location all together.

I heard it wasn't just Australian users with the gambling game ban and that TNT applied it towards anyone under 13. Then again, I haven't made any accounts to test this. But seriously, I DON'T think they excluded you or anyone else in the same situation on purpose.
They likely just didn't notice and the fact noone else did untill just now(?)... yea.. XD

Yes, the option for country change doesnt even exist in an under 13 account. I looked at the support email form, and noticed that for
"All other questions" there were over 5000 emails pending for TNT yet to answer.. By the time they got mine the plot would possibly be over.

I guess the only option we have is to send in the parental form, however as the girls Mum, I left the account as under 13 for a reason, so they were safe.. Seems its more detrimental than its worth... UGHH

Oh. The relief, the sweet sweet relief. I finally found my statue, after going through all prospective rooms three times. Somehow I missed it in one of them. I've never been so happy to be covered in a pile of scarabs.

I'm assuming they applied the gambling ban unevenly and it only affected those gambling games that have a place in the Game Center (Turdle Racing isn't listed there.)
