    NBA Finals Game 1 -- Tue May 31, Dallas at /Miami 9 p.m. ET (UTC-5)
  • Fixed, thanks!
  • Unfortunately, 9 p.m. at Miami is equivalent to 3 a.m. here in france ...
  • TymoraTymora May 2011
    I'm off tomorrow so I will MANUALLY check the whole gang in. No mishaps the time
  • TymoraTymora May 2011
    @cestpasevident: bed times are for sissies! Lol!
  • for sure! lol
  • iamciamc May 2011
    I'm in!
  • @cestpasevident if you use pocketcrowd, you can set it for a future check-in and it'll check you in while you're sleeping. then if there's an epic swarm you'll still get it.
  • That's true, but the problem remains: if I ask pocketcrowd to check at a given time, and that the epic happens 5 minutes after, it becomes an epic fail ;)
  • JR1JR1 May 2011
    No u would still get the badge as long as the epic swarm happened with the first 2hrs after u checked in. The only issue that you would have is if you dont already have any of the other swarm badges then you would only get the first one that you didnt have and have to check back in again to get the next one.
  • Thanks for the info, I already have other swarm badge, I'm just missing the epic one.

    thans a lot
  • I was informed pocketcrowd can no longer be used to swarm. is there any solution other applications?
  • try Foursquarrefox,i think it works
  • it's not support for firefox 4 :( if really works i will use that.
  • it does support,the latest version,in fact i'm using it ;)
  • really? I'll try it.
  • okey,,it's mean 8am at june, 1 in Indo
  • are we keep using pocketcrowd?
  • TymoraTymora May 2011
    I just got 2 swarm badges with pocket crowd @ indy 500
  • thanks for your info.
  • anyone that could help spread the word on twitter to their followers as well as other people who can help spread the word and would want to join in on the swarm event, it would be greatly appreciated. Let's make this EPIC happen!
  • Could we put a tips on both venue information ? is it allowed? Does foursquare controls/prevents this tip?
  • I don't see why not!!

    I just added a tip, so I hope that helps. If anyone knows of foursquare forums in Indonesia, or Europe, or other countries that usually participate in these, please post the info there!
  • I'll do that
  • Thank you!

    They say u could also use tweetdeck if im not mistaken
  • BangGowesBangGowes May 2011
    I did my future check-in via pocketcrowd and spread the word to my followers, let's have a swarm party!
  • awesome. how many followers do you have?

    also, did you link the pocketcrowd link to your followers?
  • BangGowesBangGowes May 2011
    Not much, a dozen, yes I linked it to them...:)
  • I just contacted a guy who's twitter name is dens (www.twitter.com/dens). He apparently is Dennis Crowley, one of the creaters of foursquare! He has over 30,000 followers! He said he is going to retweet the info out for the epic swarm event tonight! Hopefully, this will work then!
  • it's amaizing...! i hope we can do this.
    this info also has been spread in Indonesia, Malaysia & Thailand
  • This guy is the co-founder of foursquare as you can see here : https://fr.foursquare.com/about
    If each of his follower check-in tonight they will need to create another badge: super epic or super duper epic or something like that ;)
  • BangGowesBangGowes May 2011

  • More good news. 4sqTH on twitter (Foursquare Thialand), has retweeted it out. They have over 1,300 followers.

    4fei has retweeted it out, and they have nearly 3,400 followers!

    This could work this time guys! Keep spreading the word to anyone you can think of!

    A lot of the news spreading is from @AbaH_GahuL tweeting it out to tons of people who can keep passing it on. Thanks so much!

    Great...
  • Half hour people! Let's remind people!
  • hey what happened?? just 64ppl now
  • I dont know. Tons of people publicized this yet no one's there. Another fail I guess. I really thought we had this one
  • EdgerEdger May 2011
    Only 67 people
  • Sorry guys
  • i think pocketcrowd not works,my friend said that. we must use tweetdeck.
  • pudgym29pudgym29 May 2011
    Let's hang in here a little longer. I set my Tweet for 21:15, figuring people wouldn't get here by 21:00. On Foursquarefox, I see check-ins going back 43 minutes.
    It could well be that people know about Twitter, but not about Foursquare, and not about badges. 3=P)
  • CastaliaCastalia May 2011
    Massive fail
    Not even close to 100
    No badges tonight no epic not final
    Loool i had high hopes
  • TymoraTymora May 2011
