maybe, i got three check ins tonight with minimal effort, could just be a new fad/addiction for me that dies out fairly quickly, especially if more people dont join up and friend me
Quote : | "Aight, time to make friends on this game" |
yup, ditto, already been talking it up to various people, it definitely seems like one of those things that becomes more fun when you know a lot of other people who are doing it also
Quote : | "could be great for Atlanta" |
idimagine atlanta would be awesomelt great
the guy who showed me the website said he knew people that checked in at atms or grocery stores they went to which in my opinion is pretty lame, i think there should be some sort of gentlemanly rules we should have like you have to purchase a beer before you can check in somewhere
but anyway, it'd be fun to keep up with our points and post them here
right now i have 27 points and one badge, its just a fun way to be all "look at me, im so cool, i go to all these places" and its completely stalkerific, yay internet!
also i think carl cheats, he somehow has 34 points
but yes, you people need to sign up and friend me, pm for phone number/email

businesses in other towns have begun giving discounts or free shit to mayors or even people who just check in
busniesses in this town need to step up their game

I am the mayor of a few places, but a friend down here is fucking nuts on this thing, she adds every single place she goes (gas stations, florists, etc.), she had something like 13 places one day 11/21/2009 1:03:21 PM |
saps852 New Recruit 80068 Posts user info edit post |
see thats too much, i instituted some rules with my friends
namely, you check into a place if you enter it and purchase food or beverage
atms gas stations and grocery stores are all lame 11/21/2009 1:06:12 PM |

I've been seeing this coming up in my twitter feed more often recently.
Is there any real point in signing up for it? 2/26/2010 8:29:38 PM |

It can be fun, but don't do it if you're concerned about privacy.

its fun if people you know do it, most big cities offer people specials when they check-in or become mayor
raleigh and charlotte have yet to do this, entertainment value is good, practical use not so much outside of just seeing where your friends are 2/28/2010 7:00:10 PM |

i'll check in if i'm at a social setting like a bar or restaurant and its somewhat just a mass text of "hey, this is where I am, feel free to join"
the people who check-in at work/home/atm dumb shit like that are

So I signed up for this the night I posted in here on my phone and I used it like once a week later and then deleted it to never use it again. But randomly today I got like four "friend requests" three months later. WTF?
Also, I'd use it if they had benefits for check-ins in Raleigh like they do in places like NYC, etc... 6/2/2010 4:59:39 PM |
