Most frustrating Crime City story!?

[mnju_03]

Ok ladies and gents... What's your best most frustrating story from the game?
Winner gets a hug or a handshake.

[jobadass]

I had a rival named mnju_03 that couldn't beat me. He bought a lot of gold and blew up my explosives. The End

Children, let's all thank jobadass for sharing... Now, who's next?

[jobadass]

Children, let's all thank jobadass for sharing... Now, who's next?don't pretend you don't remember. that was a fun, short rivalry.

[Euchred]

This one time I leveled up into the shark pool... It was a frustrating adjustment. I think I was level 120 at the time.

[mnju_03]

don't pretend you don't remember. that was a fun, short rivalry.

That's not all that's "short". ZING!

[joaquim]

The game crashed while I was robbing a guy and I had to refresh the rivals list over 50 times to find the guy again.

[TonySpaghetti]

Getting my credit card statement.

[mnju_03]

Mine is iTunes blocking me from being able to purchase. Especially during the last few hours of events that I really wanted to win. I was very upset over that.

[Vince the Fist]

spending $400 to try to get the Emerald Burner and still not getting it and then being frustrated about not getting it and then thinking, wow, that is really lame what I just did. lol.

[Boom]

Getting my Laundromats robbed

I've spent more a few times... No 10th. Partly due to iTunes...partly due to crap luck!

[Dipstik]

Ive never spent a dime... What do I have to be frustrated about?

Two frustrations tied for first:

Crashes (just had another crash a moment ago) and GREEdzio being GREEdzio. This game has always had so much potential to not only make some bucks for the company, but also be a cool game with depth and purpose. Without depth and purpose it's actually kind of stupid to spend any money at all because event or not it ends up being a contest to see who can spend the most money. It's not frustrating to see that people are spending a lot, but it is frustrating to see the level of ignorance and disregard for the value of money some people show.

[Coldcommander]

Ok so here is one for frustrating. Try having QPR create your double "coldcommander" and call you the fake and imposter. Or the Indians making a email just like yours ( minus one M) to send out messages to your clan pretending to be you,trying to insue a war inside our own ranks. Then deal with 20 people a day asking to join CK, all the while trying to stay organized and help all my members when they have issues. And if that was not enough I get a email today from the beloved Indians trying their best to insult me, takes a bit more then their boring old stories of GAY talk! Stay Cold CC a storm is building!

[Nick-Clark1]

Someone who I robbed wrote on my wall "Hey Nick you got a little d***"
Very hurtful

[joaquim]

What you have to do is rob him then post on his wall something even more hurtful.

Ouch! That does sound frustrating.

Yes I should have. "Chris you have a vagina" would have shown him. Dammit, too late now :(

Did you delete the post from your wall?

[Nick-Clark1]

Did you delete the post from your wall?

Yeah. I'm more a fan of the creative insults lol

[joaquim]

I had a fight with a guy a couple months ago. I wouldn't stop robbing him then one day he decides to tell me to stop robbing him(he said this in Spanish) so I robbed him again. Then he has the urge to call me a son of a b!tch. I call him an ******* that eats sh!t and things went in from there.

I had another rival who I composed poetry for.
Roses are red
Violets are blue
God made me beautiful
What the f**k happened to you?

[Dipstik]

I had a guy who was so predictable I posted on my wall BEFORE him predicting what he would say... He still said it.

[nopenopenope]

[mnju_03]

that's good for a laugh.

My mind....it's blown!

[sexkitteh]

Frustrating: Attacking CK members relentlessly, pretending to be a CK member, trash talking them, draining all sorts of RP from them and laughing in their face...

and they don't even try to retaliate because they can't t( ._.)

Oh well... I continue to hunt them :D

[Paulio]

Sexkitteh, how come you don't hunt me? I feel left out :(

[Paulio]

spending $400 to try to get the Emerald Burner and still not getting it and then being frustrated about not getting it and then thinking, wow, that is really lame what I just did. lol.

Same. Except it was the loaded dice and I spent about $150. First time I spent gold on an event and it hurt. Vince, I know what you mean. I felt like a degenerate gambler as the last seconds ticked away and I was empty handed, lol.

[sexkitteh]

Sexkitteh, how come you don't hunt me? I feel left out :(

Well Paulio... you wouldn't know if I've attacked you or not... I will be posting pictures soon though :)

[Paulio]

Well Paulio... you wouldn't know if I've attacked you or not... I will be posting pictures soon though :)

Oh, but I would. I haven't been successfully robbed or attacked in almost a month.

Edit: Think I got robbed a couple weeks ago, but if it was you, then I know who you are.

[Luciferianism]

Seeing weak players with a top scratcher prize makes me die a little inside.

[Steve0]

Seeing weak players with a top scratcher prize makes me die a little inside. Ant that the truth I see all of thies weak players with the 5x scratcher and event prizes and not doing anything with them.

[Dipstik]

I saw a player with the last top 25 prize and under 30k stats.

[Mikecore]

Those endless trips from one sh1tty hood to another...i have lost my robbing interest

[Tomatoneverdie]

Lol +1
I thought attacking them would make me feel better, but karma would hunt me the next day and give me a Viking Blade....

[Steve0]

My most fustrating CC story is like this, Quit Giving me in game cash for scratchers and for opening Safes. Frigging BS its the last thing i need is 10K on a scrathcer when I wake up and collect 2mill. or open a safe with 10K and loos 2.2K for opening it. Just now I got 50K, guess what still dont need it. Had a little bit of home brew to top it off so yeah enough with the give away of no good Cash I would rather have a butterfy knife or a Enhanced Bike. I would be pissed if I paid gold for an open to get 10K or 50K. Enough already.

[Idiosyncrasy]

Last night, I had just saved up enough money for a loft. I timed my collections and used most of my stamina just right to be able to pull enough out of my bank to get 750k, leaving about 2k. After I did that, I went to the store, and to my dismay, I saw that the loft would cost me 760k. Somehow I read the price tag wrong.

Although my attack rate is fairly low, I started to panic. Here I am, about 8k shy of my loft, but my big buildings don't ring in for another hour or so and I used all my stamina. I couldn't bank the money again because then I would be down an instant 75k and I would have to wait until the next day. I knew if someone decided to attack me, they would get a pretty mint for my level, but I decided to wait it out. All I needed was a couple/few warehouse robs and I would be good. Just another five minutes or so, right?

So I decided to skim the rivals list and hunt my prey. Well, EVERYbody had collected their buildings. I browsed the rivals list long enough to build up another 4 or 5 stamina. I finally found a guy who had around 20k in cash, and his defense was a few hundred below my attack. I have been successful in attacking people with around 500 defense greater than my attack, so I figured that this guy would be alright. He had some defense buildings, so I thought his defense stats might have been a little inflated anyway.

So I attacked him. I could tell by the slight lag that I had lost. Crap. The results pop up, and just like that, I just gave the dude a quick 30k.

Now I'm down 40k. With only a few stamina left, there was no way that I could make up the cash in time to avoid another attack. I was thinking to myself, what if this guy gets a notification of an attack that he won. When he checks it and sees how much he got from me, he'll surely get revenge. More panic ensues.

The current map I was in required some more items to be purchased for the job, and that would have been more cash spent. I decided to repeat some of the previous jobs, but all I got was chump change. I had never seen my energy drain more quickly.

I had a few buildings that would get me around 28k in about 10-15 minutes, so I just had to wait for that. After completing the jobs, that would make me about 5k short. Just one quick double-rob on a level 7 warehouse and I would be done.

So I started sifting through the rivals again, this time with a much more careful finger. No attacking! I finally found a guy with a warehouse (and a couple backup buildings in case it was looted). I waited until I knew my buildings were about ready, and then I robbed him. I got what I needed, flew back to my hood, collected a few buildings, and got up to 766k with 2k still in the bank. A quick flick to the store, and I got my loft. 72 hours currently remaining.

All in all, it worked out, but I learned a few things along the way.

[in-game j]

This one time in ... in band camp .... there was this flute ....

[Luciferianism]

Also hate weaklings with no explosives that will rob as many times as it takes to break through.

Realising part way through 'machine gun malfunction' that these missions were pointless and the upgrades not worth doing. I had a L7 machine gun for months and green arrows all in my face. I finally completed it the other day just to get rid of the arrows, is was that or sell the damn things. And I sold my Sports Bar long ago. No more green arrows in my hood. Yay! lol

[<3 Hz]

I came across a cheater's hood that had 2 L10 casinos, 2 L10 nightclubs, ect. all ripe for the taking. I get one hit in on the first casino & then the game crashes.

[wupuck]

Most frustrating? ~10% open percentage of latest event. Granted this is a free event, but I feeling this is hella rigged.

[Paulio]

At least you got one.

[mnju_03]

At least you got one.

If I found that I would be more concerned with taking screen pictures. lol...

[wupuck]

1:12 pm. Got 1st open of the day. Been trying since 730am. Rigged I tell u!

[td2]

The most frustrating? The latest event still hasn't shown up on my Fire. No scratchers either. And, yes, I force closed multiple times.

Update: with 12 hours to go this event finally showed up...

[empathken]

Not all the jobs are showing up on Seaside. Does anyone know a fix.

[Vile Lynn]

Mis-tapping & finishing an upgrade, then having to wait for a gold refund :|

Need a gold confirmation button!!! Please.


and the constant crashes
and the new style events
and cheaters
and the last 2 or 3 hours only showing on the news feed
and 499ers doing TL goals
and drop rates being lowered or nerfed
and the lag


ok, lol, I think I'm frustrated now.

[Ragmondino]

Reporting a cheater for having multiple scratcher top prizes. Then 2 days later get a reply saying closed and realise its me they've banned!!! Then not being able to get a reply from support about why I'm banned.

[Boom]

That gotta sucks.

Ouch. That one gets the prize.

[Ragmondino]

It's sad times, I'd just joint (TnA) as well. Hoping the big dawg ccm can pull through and give me some info.

[lordronso]
