Turning the card over and back again generally sorts out the null equipment slot issue (at least, it does for me). This will prevent you needing to reload the entire game.
gryphon- the date for the prize draw is the 20th. All sending inquiries in before that date will do is get a (probably standardised by now) response informing you of that, if they decide to actually respond. I suggest in the future people read T&Cs of competitions before complaining.
@facelessgremlin:@randula6i: You can earn gold coin by playing every day for 7 days straight. It takes ages, but after a while you earn enough to actually get things.
@Odrinn- by battling a monster. It seems to be added to the amount which you gain at the end of the battle (at least, that's what happens when I get gold in the daily gift roulette).
1) Pick Virus. 2) Start in Canada, New Zealand, Cuba, Greenland, or Madagascar. If you do not get there restart. 3) Sell the starting symptoms, if any, and buy sneezing (unless it is what you started with, just keep it). 4) Buy 1-1-1-0 resistances but no transmissions (they trigger closures). 5) Once four countries are infected, sell sneezing to get rid of visibility. 6) Wait until all countries are infected. If Madagascar closes its shipyards or is not infected in 30 days, restart. 7) Buy all four drug resistances AND sneezing, coughing, and vomiting. 8) After a few days, unlock tiers 2-3, (do not buy tier 4 ever!) keeping whatever symptoms it gives you. 9) Buy fever, fatigue, diarrhea, pulmonary edema, and hypersensitivity. Then save for kidney failure and ataxia. Keep alive!
