Guide to getting play buttons and any other future Twitter based event items.

[Pharcyde]

Okay guys - If you haven't gotten any buttons, then you might have quite a bit of questions.


What are they?
What do they do?
Were can I get them?
How many of them are there?
How do I know when a Developer is on?
How do I know where to find a Developer?
WindWolve didn't give me anything!#@!!
How do I get a Developer to trade me Buttons?


The Xperia Play Buttons are Vanity Helmet Items that float above your head.

Nothing, they are just for looks. Promotional and Celebrational items are just for the fun of it.

You can get them from Developers. Right now - There are Two Developers participating in the event. Their names are Samhayne and Droid(Thade). Both of which are wearing Droid costumes and have the specific button they are giving out on their head. Samhayne is level 56 and Droid(Thade) is level 57. Their names show in Red.

There are four Buttons - Circle, Square, Triangle, and X.

Tweet! This is a twitter ran promotion for Xperia device coming to Pocket Legends. I will post a guide below the FAQ showing how to find tweets fast.

Again - Tweets!!

WindWolve LOVES to mess with people. Windlove is one of the few players lucky enough to win a Droid Costume a few months back when Pocket Legends went to the Droid platform. He often follows event tweets and goes to the listed locations to mess with players and make them think he is a Developer. His name will show in white and he will not have a button over his head. Only Developers with red names will be participating in the event.

You don't - The Developers have programmed it so that if any player waves while close to the Developer, it automatically gives and equips the given item onto the player. So meaning.. If you ever see a developer, even if a event isn't going on, WAVE! You might be lucky and catch a Antennae from a few months back :D.


How to Follow Tweet Clues
Okay guys - All the information you will need in tracking down the Droid will be found on Twitter.

Make a Twitter Account or sign in with existing username/password.
Follow Pocket Legends Pocket Legends on Twitter (https://twitter.com/#!/PocketLegends).
Then check back regularly to see if Droid is on or not.


Examples of Tweets:
PocketLegends: Droid is in Pocket Legends! Wave at Droid and you can score an exclusive Sony Ericsson Xperia PLAY Button!
PocketLegends: Droid is back! Coming to you live from E32011 he's been spotted in Balefort Castle and moving along...
PocketLegends: Droid Sighting in Dark Forest...
PocketLegends: Droid doesn't rust in the Oasis Pond...
PocketLegends: Droid will be back next hour (3 PM Eastern). Watch for Tweets here.


How To Find Droid Fast
The biggest problem about finding the Droid is the Instance he is in is usually full. So no matter how much joining your doing, it is a waste because the one he is in is invisible on the join screen.

So heres how to find him.

Filter your settings like this - Change Forest Haven to whatever Town Twitter told you to go to.

Then join the instances shown. If Droid is in none of them, spam the refresh button until a Instance with 24 population shows up. Join it immediately. If it gives you a message that town is full or reserved for other players, then thats how you know the Droid is in that world. So keep spamming refresh and keep trying to join the town that pops up. Eventually you will get past the stupid reserved for other players message.

Then the last step - Be a nice friend and good person. Invite all your friends to the instance then leave so other eager people wanting buttons can get in.

Tip: To see if the Developer is on or not, press /t Samhayne "Message" or /t Droid "message" in game. If they are online, your message will be sent through a private message. If they are offline, you will get a notification saying the player cannot be found.


Mobile Notifications - Twitter
Go to https://twitter.com/devices
Setup your settings to however you like.
Then go to PocketLegends Page https://twitter.com/#!/PocketLegends
Then press this button:

Tada - You will receive a notification directly on your ipod when PocketLegends makes a tweet. You can even set it up to allow Notifications to show in pop ups even while your on Pocket Legends!

[Riccits]

@Samhayne

Greatest problem is that the towns ur are filled in 1 sec and after noone could join. even u moving, no chance to be able to join the instance.
PPL dont leave until they have all 4 buttons and some stay that friends could join.

[NECROREAPER]

Please don't necro threads

Necroing a thread is posting in it months after it has been posted in last. If you need to talk about the topic, make a new thread, but dont forget to use the search function first to see if someone else has posted something about it :)
