For the first time since free don points were released, there are no ads or downloads available for me. I'm not complaining - I'm grateful to get any for free. I'm just surprised.

I'm in Charlotte NC area and can't get Don Points ever since the DoS attack.

The message is 'There was an error fetching an ad: FlurryAds: No ads available from server for this space. Please try again in a few minutes.'

TANSTAAFL, dudes and dudettes, Nick gets paid by the advertisers for showing the ads, he passes that on to you in the form of free DP. Advertisers are only going to pay if their ad is going to be seen by a certain volume of traffic otherwise it is not worth their investment. That's why sometimes one location will have an ad available and others won't.

My guess is that with the start of GS there has been a reduction in traffic on TW as players try out the new game. This has resulted in the number of players decreasing, and hence the attractiveness to advertisers.

The only thing in Nick's control is the marketing of this game to encourage new players.

What we need to do is encourage those new players to stay and grow. This is still a great game.

I've never had a problem until two days ago. Iphone 4s got the "Error" message. Tried again every ~10 min and eventually got them. Hope this doesn't become a regular thing.😬

👆And it has. Was around way before them, and plan to continue to play, regardless if they return. (Fingers crossed.)
Play this game, make friends, and have fun!🍻👊👊

From nick's thread in gd:

Hey everyone,
In the past two days there has been a nearly 100% drop in the fill rate for the Flurry video ads (the 5 free Respect Point option at The Don). We are in touch with Flurry, the company that is responsible for the operation of these ads, and are waiting on a response and possible fix. If we are unable to receive a satisfactory resolution from them, then we may be forced to discontinue the 5 free Respect Point program.

Please note that we do not serve these ads, and therefore we are not responsible for their availability in your area. This ad program has always been an optional way to get extra Respect Points for free, and nobody owes you anything if you can't find an ad to view.

Thanks for your patience; I'll update this thread once we get a response from Flurry.
