Email sending to all now.
You are recieving this email because you are a registered user on airlinemogul.com In the past few months, the staff have been working on making the game more appealing to all its users by allowing the ability to play more than one game at any one time. This allows us to implement a player cap on games so that overcrowding does not become too big of an issue but also allows us to keep registration open and continue to sign up many new players on a daily basis. Finally this work has paid off and we are happy to announce the game has just been reopened after a brief period of downtime.
When you login, (using this email and your old password) you will notice an immediate change. There will be a number of worlds for you to choose from. You are allowed to join as many worlds as you like, however this is limited by a Token System. Each user has 40 tokens to start off, and each world costs 30 tokens to join. This means that when you login to Airline Mogul, you may join a world and be left with 10 spare tokens. Every 12 hours there is an additional token given out to every user, which can then be used to join a second world. There is no limit to the number of worlds you can join, however there are caps on the number of players in each world.
Worlds will now open and close automatically. There are a number of details for each world available, such as the year, the length of the game, and when it is due to close in real time. It also shows you what map is in use and what aircraft you will start with.
Once you are into a world, things are like before but with some changes. The biggest change of course is the new Airline Mogul Logo and the design of the site. A lot of time has been spent working on this new colour scheme for Airline Mogul, and we hope it remains unique. We continue to make Airline Mogul more realistic, the most recent change to the cost structure are on the route end of operations with airport landing fees and handling charges based on aircraft weight and passenger numbers. These costs are taken from a number of airports based on an IATA Publication to allow for a wide range of possibilities in airport sizes.
Finally, there are plans to allow users to create their own worlds from tokens. However this will be implemented in the near future, as we feel it would be better for users to get used to the multiworlds idea first. We will be allowing users to purchase tokens if waiting for them to arrive for free is too slow, again this will be implemented with the private worlds.
We hope you enjoy this major change to Airline Mogul. It is an end of an era, but a start of a more exciting one for the game. If you have any comments or feedback, please don\'t hesitate to either email us or post on the forums.
Best Wishes,
Airline Mogul Staff

Yourefired, please try the retrieve password link. Apparently, one of our staff decided to test the change password script using your account on April 1. A personalize April Fools for you I guess. :roll: Sorry about that.

So I've been "randomly selected" for password script testing.....that's lovely. Thanks. Way to totally freak me out. You could have at least let me know so I wouldn't sit here thinking my account got cancelled.

I wasn't the one who did that :roll:
-
Im in, well see how this goes in a few hours. i like the new interface it looks tons cleaner.
-
Thanks, Mighty Stephen (and the staff). My life has a sense again :lol:
-
Looks great! I'm going back to the 80s again. Can't wait for the rounds to start!
-
does Airline Mogul no longer work with Safari? I tried loging in from my mac and I can't put in my email or password?
-
I can log in Fine, in World 4. It will take a while to get used to the new colours, but I like them. Awesome work guys, thanks for getting it up so soon.
-
@bryce82: That shouldn't be an issue. Please keep trying, otherwise email :staff:
@zkvac: Thanks :) Have fun in world 4, I'll do the same ;)
-
Great! The site is a little distracted when using a beta build of Firefox 3, though.
However, everything seems to be fine when using Opera :D
-
@Stip: Known issue with FF3Beta and Safari-something, though the fix is as of yet unknown :?

Quit being so dramatic. You should be happy you were "chosen" for experimentation :P
-
Looks great! I would like to thank everybody who works on AM for making this such an awesome game! :D
-
Wonderful! Only a thing, the information (DOP, Airline Cash etc), are difficoult to see, in my opinion is better if you change color of that, or black on grey is difficoult to see good.
-
See the Bugs forum. There should be an image underneath the text making it more visible, but that one has gone missing :) Will be fixed.
-
It is hard to see the whole page, I am using Firefox 2 and I have to highlight the whole page to see any of the links, or to see the DOP, cash, etc at the top. I dont know if the css if you are using that is not working, or what is going on. All the links are appearing as HTML links, and when you click on one, it loads in the bottom of the page, and nothing like the old site.
-
I'm on Firefox 2 as well, and I don't have any of the problems you're describing here. If you could post a screenshot, or send it to rens.denuijl[at]airlinemogul[dot]com, it would be appreciated.

You can check out the screen shots at the address above.

You should either clear your browser's cache or force (Ctrl-F5) a full refresh of the page.
That's just Firefox using a cached version of some files it should no longer be using. Had the same problem in one of my computers but all it took was one Ctrl-F5 to solve.
-
Thanks, that worked, it was weird, because it was happening on multiple computers, so didnt think that would have been it.
-
I had the same problem and did a "false" start on Multiworlds as a result. I had it live and took it down again before asking atleast 5 poeple to test it before I tried again. :lol:
-
Oh Yeah Control F5 fixed everything for me too. Now I can see all your hard work.

Awesome, I love the new site, much easier to get around and the colour is great too (damn pink...)
One question, in the ranking section, is that everybody from that world? Or is it everyone from all of the 6 worlds together?
-
it all the people in the world you are in.
and i still know were to find pink on AM :lol:
its hidden
-
Where abouts?
-
when yor loading the pages on the aircraft part. The loading thing is still pink.
-
to be more clearer its this.(http://airlinemogul.com/airlinemogul/includes/ajax_loader.gif)
-
please post bugs in bugs
-
what bug
-
The loading thing :P
-
No, he asked what was the thing that was still pink. Witch is the loading thing.(or is this a bug, does stephen still have an addiction to pink :wink: )
-
AM looks greater than ever! I'm really excited now for the game to begin! :D
-
hey what happens to all the money and aircrafts we use to have before the game was changed?????
-

are you serious? you never knew about the change?
-
well thats stupid i thought the game was good but omg its just f-king crap!!!!!
*edited by dktc: cursing not allowed*
-
bye bye!
-
well thats stupid i thought the game was good but omg its just f-king crap!!!!!
Yea... considering you didn't read the post and you don't know what "reset" means, just go if you want to. The next post of similar nature WILL get you banned without prior warnings. We can't help if our players are stupid and ignorant.
*on second thoughts, I am not forgiving today... see you in 48 hours*

:lol: go dktc!
although I doubt he will come back
-

I'm sorry you feel that way, but its impossible to satisfy everyone.
-
i think the game is better... much better than before. the design is TOP
i love green :D
-
The design is TOP
i love green :D
Yeah its great better than the pink. The green makes it look so much more professional :)
-
Absolutely top notch work guys. I think the new logo is off the hook. Keep up the great work and thanks a million for keeping it donation only.
-
The new layout is great! Browsing data about planes and routes has been made easier! It's really smooth this time and the links are all in nice places. It so easy to navigate now. VERY USER FRIENDLY. Great job! It was worth the wait
-
Oh yeah love the lay-out. And now the competition is less finally time to reach number one on the ranking list >:D
-
It's pretty nice now, but I have some questions.
How long can the round last? We have 5 and 10 year rounds now, will there be any longer rounds? Next thing, how early can the round start?
-
10 years is a verry verry long time
i think this is ok..
-
10 years is a verry verry long time

its not real time 10 years :roll:
-

there's a .0004% chance of a 25 year game being generated automatically, actually, there's a .0004% each for years 11-25, 6-9, and 2-4.
5 and 10 year rounds will dominate however, significantly so.
-
Can you manually create a 1930 till present day world ....... please please please pretty please :P
I will add some more airports than :)
Waerth
-
That is blackmailing isn't it? :wink: Good idea though (the world, I don't really care about the airports :twisted: )

When i move off the bug fixing mode (which seemingly won't take terribly long, given how smoothly this has gone), I'm onto making custom worlds. With that, I'll see what i can do... but, only 1930-2007? why not 1919-2007? :twisted:
-
That is even better Air Elbonia :)
Looking forward to that! But we would need to have some more ways to loose money along the way ;)

@iranair777: yes.. i know :D 24h in real is a month ingame.. but i think 10years are enough.. when a new player joins world 6. then there are only pros an no noobs... and this would be **** :wink:
or we can start a world from 1800... :wink:
-
Saw the e-mail in the inbox and although I'm no longer a player, many many congratulations to the re-branding and the launch of multiworlds. Despite the initial glitches I see announced, it seems the game is working well.
-
The "noobs" are actually not really a threat to anyone (except when they run 3x frequencies). I don't mind them....I'm competing with one (or crushing one, rather) at JFK and it's fine. I got 80% market share because the other guy doesn't know what they're doing.
I'm not exactly all that demanding, so I'd like to place one request: multiclass seating, please?
-
you mean with multiclass seating a world for noobs? and a world for "better" gamers?
i think this would be unfair.
-
He means where you can set different ticket prices for different seat classes, like first class and economy.
