Re: [Audyssey] KoDP updates

Hi Dark, Glad to know things are improving a little bit. I'll answer your questions as best I can, although some of them are easier to answer than others. :) The thing to understand about exploration is that the map is large, large enough to require scrolling to see it all. It is, more or less, t

Re: [Audyssey] Silver sword and other ios games for access?

Dark, It is entirely possible to fill this sort of information out on your computer, without having to deal with the phone. That might be easier for everyone, and I highly recommend trying it. You need to start up iTunes, and can find your account info from the store menu. Yours, Zack. Sent fro
