Ahhhhh it makes me so mad. Everyone should use turfwarsdb and they should fix mobcode.org get the right codes

People are asshats. Mobcode needs to make it 1 code per acct so people can't submit 12 fake codes at a time.

For real I hate it. I've typed in 4000 already and only got almost 2000

That's not fake codes lol. That's the return rate because of inactives. Unless 2000 codes really said they didn't exist...

He's saying he's only got as in he typed the code in and got the "this code does not exsist". Message half the time.

If you use TWDB, why are you punching from Mobcode?

2000? I punch off mobcode and only get that message maybe once a day, if that.

mobcode uses an auto code scraper. I think there lies the problem

Auto code scraper?
They have a script that searches for codes for them. The problem lies in sometimes the program pulls the wrong thing

I'm guessing most of the "fake" codes I get are ppls old codes before they got a custom code (or changed their custom code)
I came across my old code after I changed my code

Turf Wars should *should* have the originally assigned codes alias to the new custom codes. If they didn't do that I'd be surprised but not shocked. :)

No, once you change your code, your previous code no longer works. Why would nick want to keep track of double the amount of codes required?

Well, Nick isn't keeping track of the codes, a database is. So why not let people keep their originally assigned code as well as their new custom code. Doing so would also prevent people's original codes from deprecating everywhere they posted it before they purchased $$$ their new custom codes. It's not as if there aren't enough codes to go around.

It just uses up that much more space, I imagine. You'd have to ask nick to know for sure.
