Yeah but I played about half of them without entering the item into the pop up box and pressing submit so I was getting 10 tickets instead of 20. Now I know better and I'm getting 20 tickets in about 90 secs.

Not bad. It beats chicktionary, etc. (I'm afraid if I use anagram and go too fast I'll be labeled a cheat). I'm done for the "day" must wait another hour or so. But yes, this game beats most. Not as good as Matt Lauer, what's the deal? MORE ML!!!!!

Yeah I'm afraid Flexicon and Chiktionary are incredibly boring now after these 2 games.

Basically there are pictures with all kinds of item. You click the question mark and there is a clue about one of the items in the picture. You can get a hint and enter the word then press submit. If the answer is correct on the right side you'll see the item you have to find in the picture. You click on the item in the picture. You have 5 mins to figure out 5 words and find the items located in the picture yielding 20 tickets. Alternatively you can just click solve which gives you the word and you can find it the picture yielding 10 tickets. You also get one hint if you can't locate the item in the picture.

After a few times you'll notice different items located in the picture and it's usually the same items over and over with different clues.

Read the whole thread. This happens right before every posting. US posted over the weekend, so we have every reason to expect the remaining ones this week (AA usually takes longer). I have not heard of any not posting yet, so no reason to panic.

It appears AA had a posting this morning.

Did anyone have more then one transaction post this morning?

Or did everyone receive only one transaction?

Thanks!

Right now I'm hammering on the Hat Shop picture. Does anyone know how to type "Tea cup" or "Garlic" so the game accepts it? I've tried everything and end up having to click Solve and lose 2 tickets.

I've played the MCF games before, and it's fun but gets repetitive. In the downloadable version, you just get a longer list but it's all revealed at the start of the round. There are a lot more locations and annoying pictures to look at... you really do go cross-eyed after a while.
