So I’m finally playing a nearly complete version of Platinum Life: Web Edition! It’s been a good week, with the commercial launch of iSamJackson going really well, and now finally being able to play PL:WE, leveling up, buying gear and not getting boo’d off stage

Hey, did you guys every play fantasyhiphop.com back in the day?
I can’t say I did! I’ll ask around the office.
No, no–you’re doing it all wrong! I’m looking at your appdata stats and it seems that you guys’ installs are increasing nicely, but your dailys are way, way, way…way…way down. That’s no good! I see how you guys pumped money into the ‘launch party’, slash diddy’s 40th–doin’ it big a la circa 1999–the ubo, urbanexpose days (remember that!?). If you woulda’ used that money to… I digress. Take a look at this: http://www.appdata.com/facebook/apps/index/id/103012120282. Monthlys consistent, dailys consistent. Check the app out–think of the loot they’re raking in! Just one example, but they’re a smaller shop than you guys, less startup than you guys got (7 mil or so right?)–but with no fanfare, launch parties, etc.
Anyway, seems you’re doing a good job getting people to the app, but they’re not playing. Well, point blank, big problem is the app doesn’t work. I signed up to be a beta tester and everytime I tried, links didn’t work, images don’t show, confusing, etc–and that spinning record…!! I still check back periodically, and–links don’t work, images don’t show, confusing, etc–and that spinning record…!!
I have the answer. I created the original fantasyhiphop.com back in the day (the game you guys say you’ve never heard of–but who uses the word ‘juice’? LOL!) I did it for fun and I had several times the dailys you guys have now–without facebook. I let the domain lapse several years ago, and since, others have tried to recreate what I did. (I just checked the domain–and it appears that there is another attempt on the way!). Anyways, I might be the best developer/programmer/creator that you know. I’m about three quarters finished with my foray into the facebook app space with my own version (of my own app!) You interested?
Sure I’m interested, drop me a note.
