Good luck TPA will answer almost nobody on their FB page.
I'am done with this I'am giving no more $$$$ to KS in the future.
They respond to almost no one for months now no matter what the issues or questions may be.
It's the new FarSight trend now I guess.

In the case of iOS availability, W1lld, I'm pretty sure it's all in Apple's hands now. They approve it when they approve it and FS can't do anything once it's submitted to the store.
And to address the original question, there's no way to get an ETA, but based on recent releases it should not be much longer. Today or tomorrow most likely.

. The mobile tourney is on hold for know. Farsight said stay tuned. They will be announcing the next tournament on facebook. Or you can do what I do. Check the tournament area every time you play TPA.Thanks for the info.
How about the Mobile Tournament? It is happening I take it-I'd love to know what tables

Take a few deep breaths and think about what you are saying. These tables are invaluable. We've all been frustrated by them at times. But in their defense, they are very busy over there. And they are very into what they are doing. Play a game of Attack From Mars and you will feel much better.
Busy doing what? Did you see the Zaccaria update? Like 20 new features 10 fixes and a new table free!

I have said it before but FarSight would gain so much by improving their customer support and/or marketing. The product is nowadays fine, despite annoying bugs here and there (which are mostly on older tables). We who hang out in this forum are the Die Hard fans that buy each new table blindly, promote their product through word-of-mouth, blogs and create that core of dedicated customers to which they depend on.
But we also have high demands, like getting a teaser through e-mail promoting the new table and then not being able to play it. That's annoying but could easily be handled by a short note on Facebook, or here, just stating the obvious: "The iOS release of the new table is being delayed due to circumstances related to Apple. It should be able to download in the next couple of days. We apologize for the inconvenience".

I'm all with you Storm Chaser on this, I also think that Farsight could handle their Kickstarter better in terms of communication and setup (more updates, stretch goals etc). I also really hope they would put more effort into fixing bugs in earlier tables. Especially POTO on iOS is still broken! I can deal with some annoying bugs that won't break the game, but not with a table that messes up highscores, crashes the app and thereafter interferes with remote backup. I think that's inexcusable, alike to selling me a faulty product with no chance of reimbursement. Well enough said about that.
In all fairness though, I read in their newsletter that iOS Cyclone release would be delayed a couple of days because of the Appstore.

Oops You're absolutely right, it did say that. I take an ashamed step back...
I'm right behind you in the iOS HOF btw. Don't think I will make a real attempt at closing that 500p gap though, I have played far too much this March!

I hear ya. You're back to your old self. Where'd the patience go? 1 day more of waiting can be a drag, but do you have to keep harping on the issue? It'll be here when it gets here. I've been religiously checking my App Store too. But no good can come of posting how mad you are at FS. Espescially when it's an App Store issue. What are you meaning to accomplish?

I have a thought. Since App,e seems to be delayed more often then not perhaps in would behoove FS to release the beta for iOS a few days earlier and send it to apple a few days earlier then the other platforms for approval. That makes sense to me unless their is a reason they can't do that and I'm unaware of it. Anyone have a thought on the subject?

After all the hardwork of acquiring licenses and funds, are we tired of Addams already? Literally years of requests from hundreds of fans and TAF is now old and forgotten?

Fungi: Yes, that's correct. I rounded the table twice, got all the WG's, broke all high scores and got a neat leaderboard score - in the first day. After you have seen all the stuff and know exactly what will happen it isn't all that fun any longer...unfortunately. Still a great table though and I play once and again because of that.

So I just bought cyclone on iOS and lost access to Addams family. I was a kickstarter backer. Anyone else have this issue?
Edit: never mind it came back.

[MENTION=373]Storm Chaser[/MENTION] :By what name can I find you in the list, because then I can watch for you in my rearview mirror! I'm trying to recapture my third place from Gus, but he is a quick fellow.....
Nice to get to know the top iOS players, makes for some fun and more personal/friendly competition. I'm also on a pinball diet as of now, but this is because Pillars of Eternity got released, a Kickstarted cRPG. And it eats all my pinball time...
