BUFULO started following the problem "Dropped taps in online mode" in Tapulous.

A comment on the problem "I've had it with this bullshit" in Tapulous:

WAY easier said than done, especially on the more difficult songs & with thumbs & when you're REALLY old like me! Also, if you tap too quickly, especially with cold fingers, the touches won't register at all.

Tapulous should just ELIMINATE the OVERLAPPING TAP TARGETS or, better yet, provide a user setting to disable or reduce the overlap. Should be a trivial software change. – BUFULO, on January 16, 2010 00:38

A comment on the problem "I've had it with this bullshit" in Tapulous:

The overlapping tap target issue/bug is not really specific to any particular lane. It just seems that way because of your particular grip & even your finger/thumb size. I suspect even the shape of the contact patch your finger/thumb makes may influence the Apple OS algorithms used to determine the center of the tap.

I've posted on this before (every chance I get) but I really hope Tapulous revisits this issue. They need to either provide a user calibration or a "grip in use" setting or something that adjusts the touch center AND/OR simply provide a user option to DISABLE TAP TARGET OVERLAP!

I'm sure plenty of people will find the current implementation is best for them, but I think Tapulous is under-estimating how many people would benefit from no overlap! – BUFULO, on January 16, 2010 00:32

Me too, me too! As long as I won't lose any points or scores, reset my avatar too! Username: bufulo. – BUFULO, on January 13, 2010 17:33

A comment on the problem "The accelerometer problem" in Tapulous:

Ed, there has to be an API to set a neutral position. Other apps are able to do it DURING gameplay (which is what TTR should do at the start of each game).

I think there's more to this issue than "zeroing the accelerometers" unless this means something other than setting a neutral position. If it refers to some aspect of the accelerometer hardware that is voltage (power state?) sensitive, I guess that would make more sense. FWIW, I too have found that rebooting is the only consistently reliable way to get them working again. – BUFULO, on January 12, 2010 08:27

BUFULO started following the idea "block people" in Tapulous.

BUFULO shared an idea in Tapulous on January 07, 2010 06:43:

Inbox "block" option.

It would be nice if TTR had a "block" option in the Inbox so inappropriate senders could be blocked. While viewing the message, touch the sender's avatar & the option to block pops up.

Below are a few examples of why this would be a nice feature:
