50% more gems???

[mamawDi]

I just got a pop-up in RS & BS, get 50% more gems until Aug 13. Has anyone else got this, or have you ever seen this before?

[sweetstuff525]

What omg I want in fashion... Can you post pic?

[bigbux3]

50% more gems? Is this a sale? Or is it like 50% off?

[mattyboo1]

What are you talking about

[mamawDi]

50% more. I can't take a pic, I'm on a Kindle Fire, and my son's ipod is on the blitz. Will go back and see word for word.

[bigbux3]

50% more. I can't take a pic, I'm on a Kindle Fire, and my son's ipod is on the blitz. Will go back and see word for word.

Does your son have the offer?

[mamawDi]

This is what it says " for a limited time get 50% more gems on new gem purchases promotion ends August 13, 2012. It's also on Farm too now.

[mattyboo1]

Regular version or world games version

[boucher1]

I got it too

[mamawDi]

His ipod has the shire screen, just called today to get it replaced. This is a pop-up on the opening screen.

[mamawDi]

That's suppose to be white screen.

[boucher1]

Hey I play fashion story plz tell me what this torch runner that keeps coming up is all about and why I get it

[mamawDi]

Regular version, Kindle doesn't get world games version.

[sweetstuff525]

Let me download the reg version to see lol

[cast1532]

I don't have the popup. The only thing I have is 20% off certain packages in Farm Story. When it's something cool happens it never comes to me.

[bigbux3]

This is what it says " for a limited time get 50% more gems on new gem purchases promotion ends August 13, 2012. It's also on Farm too now.

Then how come I didn't get it? Is it on the World Games version or the regular version?
Is everything going to be random with TeamLava these days?

[bigbux3]

I don't see anything in the regular version as well.

[choaticramblings]

I rcvd this msg too. But, I didn't see it reflected on the purchase screen. Holding off on buying until I am sure it applies to everyone.

[soclassymom]

Luky u
I don't get sale on my iPhone

[lin77]

I have it.....it's 50% MORE gems till Aug. 13th! So does this mean if I purchase 24 gems I will actually get 36 gems?

[mamawDi]

I rcvd this msg too. But, I didn't see it reflected on the purchase screen. Holding off on buying until I am sure it applies to everyone.

That's why I was asking. It doesn't show the extra 50% added if u buy.

[mattyboo1]

Did anybody buy gems and get extra gems

[bigbux3]

I'm not getting this pop up. Am I always last?

[mattyboo1]

I'm not getting it either

[queentina3]

I'm not getting this pop up. Am I always last?
I know I'll never get it, since I don't even get Gem sales. Never had on my iPad, and never will. That is fine by me at this point, since I refuse to purchase gems from TL. They are overpriced for the amount of gems we actually get IMO.

But everything TL does is random

[queentina3]

But everything TL does is random

They can tell me until their blue in the face that gem sales are random and I won't believe them. The games I'm playing on this Storm ID I've had since Dec '11. I transferred them from my Android to my iPad and have NEVER had a gem sale on this ID, even when it was used for my Android. However, my NEW Android games under a different ID, gets a daily gem sale, sometimes even 40% off. I don't play those games, they are back-ups only to gift myself, but THEY get the gem sale.

Random, yeah right. :rolleyes:

I did not get this either, so I am not sure how this works. I will try to find out more information.

Thank you can someone post screenshots

[lin77]

Thank you can someone post screenshots


I cant I have a kindle fire.

[668668mou]

How do you get to it?

[mattyboo1]

How do you get to it?

I don't have it

[pattypopo]

I have it and I am also on Kindle Fire. Maybe they are trying to compensate us since we don't get goals and couldn't get the google play items. I don't know. Only guessing. I don't usually buy gems, but this offer is tempting!

[LalaSmooth]

I just purchased 24 gems for ?2.99 but got no extra free gems && i have an iphone :( oww not fair but congrats :)

[LalaSmooth]

Lin77 you would get 48 gems if purchased the 24 ones for 2.99 but oh i don't see any pop up

[pattypopo]

Gems are 4.99 for 24 gems on all my games. Do we get charged differently depending on what device we are on? I will gladly give up this special if my gems were cheaper all the time.

[queentina3]

I wouldn't really say 'charged differently', more like some people get special gem package offers like 20%, 30%, 40% off or 50% more gems if purchased within xyz amount of time.

I agree with whomever it was that said this looks like a Kindle promo. Good for you guys, I just hope that you actually get the increased amount of gems. Maybe you should take a picture with a phone or camera of the pop-up and the amount of gems you have now, then when you go to buy, and then again after you've purchased them to show the amount of gems you have now. This way if you DON'T get the 50% more gems, TL will MAYBE do something about it, doubtful, but you never know. That would be considered false advertising so even if they didn't do something, you're app store would maybe refund your money.

[LalaSmooth]

Mine says 24 for 2.99, i think it depends what country your in :/

[pattypopo]

Ha! Thing is Kindle users can't post screen shots. I have never received a gem sale before and I've been playing since March, so I'm guessing this is their way of giving us a sale.

[pattypopo]

Are you on a Kindle?

[queentina3]

I know, that is why I said use your cell phone camera or a regular camera and take a pic of your Kindle on the various screens. :)

[pattypopo]

Ooops sorry queentina, I just noticed you said to use a phone or camera. Good idea. I may do that to prove my coin losses, but it sounds like a lot of work for a game! :)

[queentina3]

It is. My Android phone still doesn't allow me to take screen shots, so I have to use my iPad 2 to take them of the phone. I'm too lazy to pull my big hulk of a Canon Camera out to do them. Hopefully, one of these days, Motorola will send out the update for Droid Bionics to be able to take screen shots, but until then, grrrrr........................LOL

[LalaSmooth]

No i'm not on Kindle, I'm using an iPhone for mine. I would take a screen shot but I don't know how :/

[LalaSmooth]

Here I don't know if this works but worth a try

[queentina3]

LalaSmooth, I think the offer is only for Kindle Users, that is why you don't have the 50% more gem offer.

[bigbux3]

I'm still not seeing it. I hope iOS gets something.

[bigbux3]

I'm still not seeing it. I hope iOS gets something.

And that goes for Androids as well.

[LalaSmooth]

Yeah never mind I hope they put up a sale soon & same bigbux3 it seems we never get any good stuff.

[farmerbarbara712]

I have the offer on all my kindle fire story games. But when I go into the area to buy them it shows the regular amount so I haven't purchased it. I'm afraid I won't get the extra ones.

[monkeynuts21]

i don't have the 50% off popup. but when i go to buy gems 9 gems is showing $1.99 24 $4.99 50 $9.99 105 $19.99 & 275 $49.99. is this the same pricing as a 50% sale?

[mattyboo1]

[bigbux3]

I'm still not getting this offer. Unless it's just a Kindle Fire thing, it would be nice to hear from the CMs.

[DaojinWildfire]

These sales are only available in the Amazon versions, since we were able to get a promotion going on with the Amazon Appstore.

Kindle Fire devices can only install apps from the Amazon Appstore, so they will automatically see this sale, but Android devices can also install apps from the Amazon Appstore. Android devices can install apps from either the Google Play store or Amazon Appstore, so if you uninstall the app and install it from the Amazon Appstore, you will see the promotion as well.

If you need help installing the games from the Amazon Appstore, please read Amazon's detailed installation instructions (https://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?ie=UTF8&docId=1000626391&ref_=amb_link_363093842_2).

[mamawDi]

When you click to buy gems it doesn't show that you are going to get 50% more, so that makes me reluctant to buy any. I have only bought gems twice since I've been playing (December). Once they didn't even show up and I had to get a refund from Amazon.

That's great! Glad to see TL giving Kindle, and those on Android that download from the Amazon store, something. :)

I know...we are always last to get everything...I remember when The Kindle Fire was first out all we had for Story games was Farm Story ....then around Valentines day of this year is when they added more Story games. But we still don't have them all.....just Pet, Zoo, Restaurant, Bakery, Fashion & Nightclub....and as I mentioned Farm.

[melby29]

[farmerbarbara712]
