Esato lacks games these days, don't you think?

Even the papertour got silent again, Esato is not so fun as before!
Let's make something, like send a phone around the globe, can we try something like that?
Or giveaways! And just for the record I don't have any working phones anymore.

Be careful what you wish for..

The Esato Papertour started due to a failed Phonetour, if I'm not mistaken, they had a K750i doing the rounds then it went missing, then the 1st paper tour and that got lost, and now I think we are on the 2nd one. I stopped following that after Laffen got the paper from me.

etaab,
Tsepz_GP, yeah, the paper got lost and so did Geezay.
I am a graphics designer and I'm in graphics school, maybe I could design some stuff.

The paper, that got MIA after Laffen recieved it, was already the third and yes, the tour started with a phone, a W810i.
First idea was, to take the pictures with that phone, but it suffered from a broken screen on one of its first journeys (probably not well-packed enough), then, after a few months, it got lost.

It always gets complicated somehow!

Posted by Marly
Yeah, each attempt only worked well for a few months

It's hard to get photos in the shootout,imagine how hard it is to get a paper/phone/whatever around the world.

Posted by Marly
Exactly! Let's face it, almost all forums suffer from the popularity of Twitter, Facebook, etc.

Posted by hihihans
Forums in general are quiet. There is not much to mod or fix on phone's anymore.


Posted by Marly
Yes, there isn't much to mod on phones anymore, and a lot of people don't want that anyway, they want their phones to work out-of-the-box.
We've all gotten older, most have family and job and don't want to waste time fiddling with phones, I know I don't

I'm sure we could come with a good forum game. I miss Playtime too!

Posted by Tsepz_GP
The only forums that still get very busy are iOS forums e.g. MacRumours, which can get as busy as Esato was at its peak just before FB and Twitter had arrived.

Posted by hihihans
Playtime needs a lot of gifts from the members. If there is enough stuff to make it a real happening I'm willing to give it a go. Thoughts?

Posted by alenn
I can provide a MicroSD 2GB memory card.
And that's that because every phone I had died on me except the ones I use frequently.
I'm in!

I'd have to have a good root around in my box. Someone must have a lanyard or something to donate.

Posted by alenn
A symbolic thing would be good to start with.

EDIT

I've found a SE USB cable from my K750, it's grey.
And also I have two SE chargers, CST-60 and the other one I don't really see any model writed on it.
I also have two adapters to 3.5mm for headphones, HPM-70 pink one and black one.

Of course, all original and working.

Sorry I didn't put any photos but I'm lazy a bit.

I think I still have one K750 somewhere. We could send it around from one member to another, each making a few photos and sending it forward...

Posted by alenn
Oh the K750, a beauty!
I would be so willing to pay extra money to mail it super duper safe, like a titan shield to anyone.
Edit: And we would post photos in a thread!

On the topic of a new Playtime!: we've discussed this with tranced a few months ago, and I've mentioned, I might donate a classic : K800i or 810i, we also have one or two USB-cables, for the K/W series, same type alenn has.
But masseur had a lot of promotional stuff: pens, noteblocks, lanyards, etc., they make nice prizes, and it's more fun, when there's more to win, but most members don't have this kind of items.

I have a few lanyards and an android keychain, I believe.... I'll check when I get home.

And then there's people like me who don't have a facebook or twitter... any spare PC time I do have, I wind up here, on woot or jpl.nasa..... I know, Im lame

Posted by alenn
Thanks to everyone who gets involved, hopefully more will too. I will try and find as much as stuff to donate as I can.
