4 Days since the daily bonuses came in and tomorrow... eerrr.. right now if I went out walking I could get my 7th day in a row marked off on my card for hitting Pokestops, I'm not sure how that works out either, I understand obviously I got my first "day" before midnight, but surely my post during that day... and was 4 days ago, strange stuff.

I'm kinda gonna miss the double items and surplus of pokemon.... though it's kinda tiring having to restock every other day...

Also, I'm not really liking the changes to the gym system. It takes too much effort to increase the gym levels, and is way too easy to take down. After doing one training session, I got 300 points for it, and I needed 2000, ugh... Then today on my bike ride, I fought against a rival gym and won, and it lost 8000 points from 1 defeat. Now this is just too ridiculous.

Did you know... that if you use dire pokemon to train at a gym that you gain more power for it? I've a mate who has fairly low CP Pokemon and he was boosting the Gym we were powering up by 400 per win, where as when I was hammering the shit out of it with my 2.5k Snorlax I was adding just 200 per victory against all of the trainers in the Gym so yeah, checked it out used a team of low cp mon against the gym rather than just Zen headbutting them all to death... added around 450 priestiege to it, can't believe they've made a system where you get a bigger bonus.... for using shit Pokemon in fights. Fucking Niantic man... maybe in their world you should go and face the Elite 4 with just a team of hundreds of Weedles and Pidgeys? that was their endgame all along lol.

Haha, I never thought of it that way. I noticed the bonus you get from using weaker pokemon, but I usually go with the recommended team to speed things up, and... sometimes when I try to do a gym battle, the blasted game will kick me out and show an 'error' message. Then I can't battle the gym until a certain amount of time passes. It's been happening more often lately, so getting an error after carefully selecting my pokemon just makes it tiresome arrange a team over and over... Sometimes it even boots me out in the middle of a battle. It's so irritaing when these things happen. -_- Come on Niantic...

Oh yeah, I know of the "Error" error very well, I know you can speed it up slightly if there is another Gym around the place you can fight in that and it should let you battle, I think the issue which pops up is when your phones net drops for a second which leaves you're team in the gym, then reconnects to try to put you in the Gym a second time, and since you can't attack a Gym twice at the same time (to stop players from being logged in on two phones using their team to power it up twice as fast) but yeah the end result is we get locked out and have to stand out in the cold doing nothing but considering... "is this fucking worth 10c" but yeah while on occasion I've thought, fuck it will I just put cash into the game instead.... you should always keep in mind that thinking this way is going to be paying money to the developer because their game is functionally broken in regards getting Pokecoins.

 

Also I just hit level 30... fuck... sake at the new item type that you get from 30 onwards, what a useless pile of shit.

Oooh, so that's what causes the error. Thanks for sharing that, though it still sucks when that happens. -.-

Luckily for me, it doesn't get cold here, so I don't have to worry about freezing while playing go xD

Just going to head out for my exercise walk now, going to see if they reset things back to the way they were completely, or if some of the activated spawn points are still active even if just in a small way.

Also now I'm bound for the super new item that I get from being level 30 I can't wait to get some FUCKING MAX REVIVES ARE YOU SERIOUS, FUCK OFF GAME It's just what I needed to make catching a billion more Pokemon possible to reach higher levels!

Yeah, I heard about the reward on level 30, and really, not so great. Though I guess if I get enough of them to replace the regular ones, I'd be okay with that, but more Ultra balls would be great. Everything is too strong now Dx

Fairly weird though, the Pokemon spawning seem to have been left at the higher level which it was pushed up to during the event or at least in some ways like with Omanyte now has the same spawning points which only started during the event... but of course getting 1 ball from a Pokestop means that you are going to be running into a situation where there is Mon around that you'll have nothing to catch them with, maybe that's the plan, try to sell Pokeballs for people who really have to catch them all?
