Re: how do I play Solara the game.

2013-08-18 Thread Christopher Chaltain
I'm sure what I'll say will be dismissed as coming from a game player 
and dancing on your head, but I think it's one thing to express an 
opinion about a game and how you choose to spend your time, but it's 
another matter when that opinion extends to those who choose to spend 
their free time playing a game. Just because it's your opinion doesn't 
make it OK to tell those who play Solara that they're wasting their time 
playing a stupid game. You can express your opinion about the game, and 
decide whether it's worth your time or not,  without insulting those who 
choose to play the game.


Each person is free to choose how they spend their free time. I would 
never pass judgment on someone who chooses to spend their time doing 
something I don't choose to do myself. I haven't played any computer 
games in years, and Solara is the only computer game I play at the 
moment. One of the things I like about Solara is that I can play the 
game with very little time at all. Most of the time I spend just double 
tapping a few buttons to collect gold and train heroes while I'm waiting 
for buildings to finish or heroes to train up in levels. I doubt that on 
average I spend more than 10 or 20 minutes a day playing Solara. Of 
course, there are days where I go adventuring and spend some time on 
quests and in the arena, but that's when I have the time to do something 
like that. I spend much more time reading, listening to music, watching 
football and taking care of my plants than I do playing solara. I don't 
watch much TV or very many movies. I don't think that blind people who 
watch TV, see movies, follow baseball or play card or word games are 
wasting their time doing something stupid.


Solara isn't for everyone, and I don't have any problem with people not 
choosing to play it. I've enjoyed helping people with the game on this 
and other lists. I've seen people help out with tips and advice and 
share their experience, but I've never seen anyone push this game on 
anyone who doesn't want to play it. IMHO, we should each choose how we 
spend our free time and let others make their own decisions.

Well, I am giving up on Solara right now.  As to the other stuff,
call me lonely or stupid which ever, Tom back in hospital, doing
worse now than the day he went in, supposedly just for a refill on
potassium.  It is all pretty discouraging right now so I don't want
to mess with a game that loads of people see to be figuring out but
not me, the more I hear the less I seem to understand.

Twitter and social networking may not be for everyone, but Twitter isn't 
just for people with too much time on their hands.


More and more organizations are using Twitter instead of alerts, such as 
sports scores, weather updates, last minute scheduling changes and so on.


You can also use Twitter to follow authors, bloggers and web sites 
similar to how people use RSS feeds. For example, woot.com tweets their 
daily deals every morning. Just as with RSS feeds this saves you time 
and keeps you from having to check multiple web sites just to see if 
they've been updated.


I've also read of things like bus lines which tweet every time they 
leave a particular stop, so you'll know exactly where the bus is and 
when it'll show up at your stop.


Twitter is also used to enhance a meeting. For example, if you're 
meeting on line or in person, participants may tweet links to articles 
with similar content, questions, vote on issues and so on.


Like I said, Twitter and social networking isn't for everyone, but if it 
isn't for you, that doesn't mean the only people who take advantage of 
it are people with too much time on their hands.

blackjack to work so I play that, sometimes Roll It also although sometimes

clever Clues, I usually get the words, and can spell them but hunting for

correct letters, he can't spell and I can most of the time.

Thanks so much for this.  I installed this game because I guess I'm a
wanna-be too.   I have never been much on playing games and I liked
the music when this game first opened along with the sound effects but
quickly found out that I couldn't hear what voice over was telling me.  I
found the buttons for music and sounds and turned them off.  I was

I did write one of the Harry Potter games for him but that was the extent of

This link was sent in an earlier email. How much it helps can be debated.
Basically, you flip left and right to pick a selection you want to do.
Rather it be quest, or arena to fight other real life players if your own
level is level 11 or higher, or building or extending your castle and it's
shops. This also depends on if you have enough cash and or esper points.
If you have ever played a RPG game, this can be somewhat like that. You have
characters that you will advance in levels by quests, you will train your
characters with food and gold every other level food and gold change off.
The amount of food and or gold raises each level as you go along.
Only way you can really learn about the game is just jump in and start
playing.
Now for the link that was submitted to the list. It didn't help me much, but
well, to each his or her own.

Lots of luck, I have progressed only slightly in level 1.  I guess games
have been so inaccessible to me most of my life that I have problems playing
most of them, fruit machine is about my level of game play, LOL.  I tried
Info com games back in the 1980's but never did well with them and there are
some games on the BrailleNote, again, I usually never come near to
completing them, after I try a few times I just give up, go read a book or
do my e-mail or and this one is not something I want to do, household
chores.

Hi All,

 

Thanks so much for this.  I installed this game because I guess I'm a
wanna-be too.   I have never been much on playing games and I liked
the music when this game first opened along with the sound effects but
quickly found out that I couldn't hear what voice over was telling me.  I
found the buttons for music and sounds and turned them off.  I was
bamboozled by what I heard.  I've never played a city building game in my
life and have only played one or two other games from my friend Jim Kitchen.
I did write one of the Harry Potter games for him but that was the extent of
my game playing.

 

This does sound like a much more advanced kind of game so I look forward to
it so I suppose I'll be back with other questions.

Alan

HI.  if you want the music on but vo to be louder add volume to your roter then 
turn the music down and go to volume in the roter and turn vo up.

another way I've found it works is to turn the iphone down at the volume not 
all the way, then do a 2 finger flick to get vo talking and turn the volume up.
