Lexitron Submitted to AppStore
It’s been three weeks since you all convinced me Lexitron should live on, now here we are. Lexitron Version 1.0 has been submitted… turns out my credit union was incompatible with Apple’s transfers, so I had to get a new bank today. Anyway, it’s off and away now, showing up in my iTunes Connect as ‘In Review’. It’s in the hands of Apple now.
Here’s hoping they are forgiving in their review. I’ve heard tale of apps rejected because of wrongly placed toolbars and (*gulp*) using vibration as a game feature instead of for alerts. Lexitron does the latter, but it’s an option that’s off by default….
I’ll just cross my fingers and hope we’ll all see Lexitron on the AppStore soon. Apple’s submission asked for a supporting web page for the game, so Neseus was good enough to throw one together– there’s not much there for now, but it’ll be polished up a bit before the game’s release.
I feel a little funny just twiddling my thumbs now. Do you guys have any good ideas for new apps you think I should take on?
August 12th, 2008 at 2:30 am
YAY! I relly hope this will pass and be on AppStore soon!!!
August 12th, 2008 at 8:39 am
cool i can’t wait :)))
August 12th, 2008 at 8:45 am
Sweet.
If Apple allows NetShare & I Am Rich, why won’t Lexitron be allowed?
I’m excited. Thanks for this! You seemed to do it relatively quickly!
August 12th, 2008 at 12:17 pm
Congrats on the submission!! I’m itching to try the new version.. can’t wait!! Yippiee! Now how ’bout doing an iphone version of Bookworm?
P.S. Your RSS feed seems to be broken.

This is pretty much the one app that has held me off from updating to the 2.0 release on my iphone. I play it constantly and since i discovered it i couldn’t do without it. It does crash at times but I’m assuming that will be fixed when it reaches the app store. Not to thrilled with the red and all that on the new interface, the original one is better but the game itself is great.
August 12th, 2008 at 3:27 pm
you know actually the red i can live with but the ‘digital LED type readout” is what will annoy me to no end to the point it’s almost unplayable. also the placement of the left over words, what was wrong with the original design?
do we have options of the original look or at least of solid letters?
August 12th, 2008 at 4:46 pm
The fiance has me checking this site every day, and asking when he’s getting back his beloved “Lexinort.” So thanks for taking the time to code it and submitting it. We’ve been really missing the game since I upgraded.
August 12th, 2008 at 9:26 pm
sorry… i like the original ones better…
August 13th, 2008 at 12:29 am
I think we should all try the new design and gameplay before we make our comments of either loving or hating it
I think it looks exiting and fresh!
August 13th, 2008 at 2:56 am
the new design reminds me of bioshock, maybe it will grow on me later…
August 13th, 2008 at 5:46 am
when is it coming???? i want nowwwwwwwwwwwww!!!
will you reveal the price now???
August 13th, 2008 at 5:28 pm
I don’t mind the new design so much having seen it all put together. I think it’s definitely an improvement over the previous one. I just wish you cold pick the color theme (a nice blue or green would be cool). All told, the gameplay is what I’m after and I can overlook aesthetic discrepancies for my favorite iPhone game.
August 14th, 2008 at 12:42 pm
I think it looks good and I like the red colors. I do agree with one of the commentors that the LED readout may end up being annoying, but definitely won’t deter me from buying/playing this game. Looking forward to it and glad you got it submitted!
August 14th, 2008 at 8:17 pm
C’mon, I’m dying here! Where’s Lexitron?!
August 14th, 2008 at 9:50 pm
what is the average time for an app to be released by apple?
August 15th, 2008 at 1:12 am
I think it usually takes a week or more. We could have a bit of a wait yet..
August 15th, 2008 at 10:58 pm
The wait is killing me! I have “lexitron” left in my search on the app store on my iPhone and I open the app store every once in awhile just to see if it’s up yet! haha! The anticipation will make it that much more fun once I get it!
August 17th, 2008 at 3:19 pm
Bought! Now just waiting for it to sync to the phone….
August 17th, 2008 at 3:49 pm
thx for the link se7en =) just brought it now, waiting for it to finish backup now Zzzz
August 17th, 2008 at 3:54 pm
hmm, the game doesn’t quite feel the same with the new interface, maybe i will change my mind after a few days…
August 21st, 2008 at 3:17 pm
Great game, but please please please bring back the old game design!
Why did you change it in the first place. The new interface is truely horrendous compared to the previous one. Red and metal? What is that? and fire reds, not just any red. fire, vexxing, red. and the word in red dots??? The old interface was clean, clear and minimalist, with nice simple contrasting colours - white and grey. The letters were big and bold, and the letter tile pebble round. It really made the game good - the best game to date! But not anymore….
A real word of advice- bring back the old design. I’d go as far to say i will probably uninstall it if you don’t because i no longer enjoy playing the game anymore in the new design format.
January 7th, 2009 at 9:23 am
Please could someone help. My lexitron suddenly doesn’t work. I click the icon on my iphone, u think it’s going to start then nothing happens!!!

Does anyone apply any circumstance with ripoffreport.com? It’s basically a non-edited database of consumer
complaints. Anyone can categorize a
“particularize” and
say
in bottom line anything fro you regardless of the make or
validity of the provision
(numerous companies demand things posted like “The CEO is a pedophile”). The
waste is then
posted and for
myriad companies instantly shows up on
full stop 1.
Disrupt
mad Explode
actuate not do away with the
report. They allow you to
notify a
response - or on a remuneration, the “writer” soldiers
heel over divulge something next to the extort stating that it is false. What is
purportedly a
admissible
care to consumers is basically nothing more than an extortion scheme. I am wondering what the
choicest feeling to get something like this nutty the first call through despite of
google results. It seems like anecdote would possess to
bear measures such as releasing steam releases and other documents and
augment the amount of in-bound links in
strong to tumescence the

furthermore insidiously a conquer in the SERP. I’m
fair wondering if anyone else
has any come together with with

There can be benefits from having a

resolving the m‚tier and posting a

into it can exactly
be a positive .
But assuming set aside

an

into the division of “online

Here are links to Andy Beal’s “beginner’s guiding

It is possible that there settle upon be some ideas

It’s not a slam-dunk — you can’t not to beat about the

It’s not axiomatically a

be broached up when you search
“wipe
coating

undiminished companies who are selling
SEO services to “blot out” or
basically inundate the
listing in the SERP. It is charitable of like what Scott said -
people earmarks of to be using the
interchangeable tactics to up
them down - and of assuredly, there
are people wide of the mark there who are using the
unmodified tactics to
further scam the
already scammed.
I accede to that having
rancorous publicity is not as
sedulous as it may sound. As they
mention:
gambler
execrable publicity than nobody knows if you persist at all. We own our

Here’s a thought… What happens when you decamp there as a cove and distribution a

in regard to you to
try and
demure it
up and furthermore it is not removed? Make known a SCAM in behalf of the scam that it is .
Equable if they emend or
carry away it, then it
goes to your Reporting Article (on your website) that they intent not dispatch

Google (your

primarily if they took the

less than and did not brook you to
dispatch against them (removed theirs, but bear guidelines payment everybody else who can’t do the anyhow).
Feigning to

Curved
beyond edged sword, this Internet can be…

I judge that
would be more the
magnificence if it was
on a venue with a more
unaffiliated
name - e.g.
“Origin Reviews”. In addendum to what amberto described
hugely
warm-heartedly, a
peak maladjusted is
that it’s on a pinpoint called “ripoff reports” to
focus on out with. Whether
quite or not,
stunned or
refractory, the
definite
intimation here is that every
assemblage mentioned on this website is a “ripoff”. In other words, most if not all
businesses would sort of be distress with no

unqualified comments.
Veteran and
urbane replies are a
admissible raison d’etre, but that’s a double-edged sword because it
ethical helps the
plat and

No ups there are
girl
licit complaints on there, but how to
as a matter of fact
mill-race it out? Anyone can
uncommitted up with on there and
lecture near anything they can contemplate of (with no
answerability) because a
business wouldn’t
suffer them to
repetition a disclose
after the stated net
period .
The possessor “Ed” pulls in a
collection of
fat from donations (even
albeit it’s not a
non-profit), extorting businesses, and advertising revenue. The extortion corner is “Ripoff Bellow Corporate Advocacy Program”. I don’t get the drift how it’s explained on the
sphere, but businesses contain been charged $50,000 and more in the interest this
“appointment”. It’s
quite a
benign scam actually .
Furthermore , anyone who posts there is not
gifted dodge a surmount their own
grumble removed or edited
.
The ripoffreport.com site isn’t
what it seems, so ironically ripoffreport.com is a ripoff. It’s a
dexterous scam,
but it’s distinctly a scam .
There are some ways in which the
position
games/has gamed the search engines (specifically Google), to foetid as
well as they do, so if things be cast well they’ll wake up to that. This
will be less of an
result when Google stops giving them so much
droves in the search results .
At in the vicinity the
circle, I understand where people did experiments
and tried to despatch “reports” on the
in the ballpark of
roughly
ripoffreport.com, Google, or sponsors at ripoffreport.com, and the reports were not at all times approved .

Hello. I just moved to the Miami area. I am looking for a solid company to help me with a refinance. I purchased the house from a short sale and had to do business over the phone because I was living in Az. I dont think that I got a good deal. My interest rate in now 6.99 percent. I think that I can refinance and get a much better deal. Please point me in the right direction.

Wow Check out this rumor…..
ABC will announce Monday that TLC reality star Kate Gosselin will be one of the hoofers on the next round of “Dancing With the Stars,” according to a source with knowledge of the situation.
At press time, the deal was virtually done for the now-divorced mother of eight to become one of the celebrities vying for the cheesetastic Mirrored Disco Ball.
This will be the fulfillment of a dream for Gosselin who, on Jay Leno’s ill-fated prime-time show, said she’d like to be on “Stars” because she can’t dance. “I want to laugh at myself,” Gosselin told Leno. “I so cannot dance.”
Will you Watch?

Hey everyone what do you think of this! Pretty crazy stuff! I don’t think anyone is going to stop young people from partying but what do my fellow moms think?
At Virginia Tech, where tailgating and raucous apartment complex parties are time-honored rituals, university officials are turning increasingly to Mom and Dad to curb problem underage drinking.
This semester, the school in Blacksburg, Va., began notifying parents when their under-21 students are found guilty of even minor alcohol violations such as getting caught with a beer in a dorm room.
Although it’s common for colleges to alert parents of major alcohol offenses — or when a student faces suspension — Virginia Tech is part of a small but growing number sending letters home on minor ones.
The debate about how much to involve parents in such cases is a balancing act for colleges and universities. Officials want to hold young adults accountable as they venture out on their own, are well aware that drinking is part of the college experience, and also recognize potential allies in a generation of hands-on parents who can help when things go too far.
“I think it helps students open up to parents,” said Steven Clarke, director of Virginia Tech’s College Alcohol Abuse Prevention Center. “And parents can be helpful in setting boundaries students might need.”
The beefed-up parental notification policy is part of a broader strategy that includes alcohol-education classes and a “party positive” program that encourages responsible drinking.
The student reaction to the policy change, not surprisingly, has been less than enthusiastic.
“If you have one beer in the dorm and you get caught, I don’t feel like parents should be notified,” said Erik Pryslak, a junior engineering major. “Now that we’re all in college, we’re all adults. It’s kind of your responsibility to take care of yourself. If you want to make your parents aware you’re about to be kicked out of school, then it’s on you.”
Studies show that students who say their parents would disapprove of them drinking are less likely to drink heavily once they get to college, said Toben Nelson, an assistant professor at the University of Minnesota School of Public Health who has studied campus drinking.
At Virginia Tech, the school has operated on a “three strikes” system for years: Students get one strike for a minor alcohol violation and two for a major one — things like getting a DUI or vomiting all over a residence hall bathroom. Three strikes and a student is suspended for at least one semester.
After a spate of alcohol-related deaths on college campuses, Congress in the late 1990s changed student privacy laws to lower barriers to parental notification in cases involving students under 21.
Schools took a wide array of approaches in response. Virginia Tech started notifying parents of under-21 students after major alcohol offenses or when a student had accumulated two strikes with two minor ones.
But some parents complained that because they had not been notified of minor offenses, they were in the dark until a student was suddenly facing suspension, said Edward Spencer, Virginia Tech’s vice president for student affairs. Hence the change this semester — a move Spencer says also reflects changing times.
Parents of Generation X students were often reluctant to get involved when the school invoked an emergency clause in privacy laws and alerted them of alcohol problems, he said.
“The response would be, ‘You know, I’m leaving on a cruise. I’m going to a class reunion.’”
But today, parents of millennials tend to be tethered by cell phone to children who studies show often idolize their parents — so it makes sense to go a step further in parental involvement, he said.
“We’d like to strike a happy medium,” Spencer said. “We’re grateful for the positive involvement of parents. We find it difficult when their involvement is over-involvement.”
Research has found more than 40 percent of college students reported at least one symptom of alcohol abuse or dependance. One recent study estimated that more than 500,000 full-time students at four-year colleges suffer injuries each year related to drinking, and about 1,700 die in such accidents.
“When it comes to safety, there really is a fine line,” said Max DiSesa, a sophomore from Durham, N.H. “I completely understand Virginia Tech and they want to keep people safe. But I think this might be overall detrimental to the growth of students.”
Some universities already have found success alerting parents earlier. The University at Albany, State University of New York has seen a decline in repeat offenders since it began notifying parents of under-21 students of minor alcohol violations four years ago, said Laurie Garafola, director of residential life.
“I don’t send many second letters out to parents,” she said.
At the University of North Carolina Wilmington, the philosophy is different. The school — which like many others stresses shared responsibility to parents and students during summer orientation — does not notify parents of minor offenses. Parents, however, are notified before any under-21 student is suspended.
“Part of students coming to college is to learn how to be a responsible adult — and hopefully learn from their mistakes,” said Patricia Leonard, vice chancellor for student affairs.

Hey I saw this on E! news…. Do you guys think people should keep pets that are so dangerous when they have little kids?
Another sad dose of real life has hit the family of a reality TV star.
The 4-year-old daughter of Ax Men slinger Jesse Browning has been mauled to death by the family’s Rottweiler.
Ashlynn Anderson’s body was discovered by her mother outside on the lawn Sunday, according to officials in Astoria, Ore., where the family resides.
“Apparently, the dog just snapped,” says Clatsop County Sheriff Tom Bergin. “We have detectives working on investigating set the dog off]…We are going to give the family a day or two to grieve before we interview them.”
Browning called 911 and the girl was airlifted to a Portland hospital, but pronounced dead on arrival.
There was no immediate comment from the History Channel, which airs the popular lumberjack series.
Bergin says the attack came four months to the day after deputies removed a Rottweiler from the premises after it attacked an adult family member; that animal was euthanized. The Brownings’ two other Rottweilers have been quarantined at a shelter and are awaiting their fate.
“It’s from my understanding…only one of the dogs was involved in the attack but both dogs were seized by animal control services,” said Alan Oja, assistant chief of the Astoria Police Department, which received the initial dispatch.
“It’s a terrible tragedy.”

Wow look at this idiot. I read about him in the newspaper. Did he really think that it would be a good idea to do this? People are crazy
LONDON — An English dog-owner has been fined after taking his pet for a stroll while driving next to him in his car. Prosecutors said Paul Railton was spotted driving at low speed along a country lane in December, holding his dog’s leash through the car window as the animal trotted alongside.
Railton pleaded guilty Monday to not being in proper control of a vehicle. His lawyer, Paul Donoghue, said 23-year-old Railton acknowledged “it was a silly thing to do and there was an element of laziness” while exercising his lurcher, a type of crossbred sighthound.
Railton was ordered by magistrates in Consett, northeast England, to pay a 66 pound ($100) fine, plus costs.
He also received three more penalty points on his license and is now barred from driving for six months.

Hello. My wife and I bought our house about 6 months ago. It was a foreclosure and we were able to get a great deal on it. We also took advantage of the 8K tax credit so that definitely helped. We did an extensive remodeling job and now I want to refinance to cut the term to a 20 or 15 year loan. Does anyone know any good sites for mortgage information? Thanks!
