I asked QMx how to attach names for the leader board (& because I've been unable to unlock any frames since the update, I never knew the answer)
Quote:
You just need to discover one new frame with version 1.1 and when you do, the app will ask you for your handle. There are still lots of frames to be discovered (and more coming over the weekend), so just keep shooting movies and playing them back on your projector, and I'm sure you'll get that dialog box.

Thanks so much for downloading Super 8 and for playing the game!

frames in older movies...

I've been going through some of the old films I have saved in the app on my phone, and I've found 4 frames in films that did not have frames in them prior... so if you have any saved, check them out... might be something there.

Well crappola, I've been deleting films after checking for frames. I guess I'll start saving them.

Looks like the Super 8 poster is the trigger. RP, HLM, STIES don't trigger anything, nor does TROGL.


Just for fun i figured I'd try the AR with the Japanese Poster (International Poster) and got a 2:30 min or so trailer. Looked to be new things I hadnt seen yet but pretty cool.

Thank you.
Are there btw the possibilities to detect, whether the augmented reality contents are appended by Paramounts or by fans? (Something like "Properties of data" or "Header"?)

There is suppose to be a Super Anywhere's menu which shows anywheres made by companies like Paramount. I can't find this menu in the app, but am still looking. So, in other words, YES there is a way to tell fan-made from large companies.

I'm not one of the chosen few (or many, who really knows) who can play in the Development Room unlocking game, so I decided to try unlocking frames on my iPhone at the same time as they were F5'ing. I unlocked two frames. May just be a coincidence but thought I'd mention it.

Congrats to 'Studded' for completing clip #37 and 'YodaMac & J9' for clip #68

Wish we could see who the Top Collectors are and how many frames they've found for #70, #71, #73 and #74

The Game Is Almost Over

It's almost finished, just 1 more clip to be unlocked. The app was fixed so we can view the rest of the clips leader boards through the night at some point, from QMx facebook
Quote:
it was a minor bug in the backend database, but it should be working fine now. Thanks for your patience!


Today I started finding several frames and at 6:48am PDT I felt totally "mint" when I found out I was the first to unlock #74.



However...

Because I'm not a resident of United States of America, I couldn't complete my submission. I filled in what I could and got in touch with a friend who is a resident to ask for their zip code and state. By the time we Skyped and I hit the submit button Bill M, or 'YodaMac & J9', had beat me too it by a matter of minutes.



At no point do I recall reading that the competition was only open to USA residents. If I've overlooked that small print when the app and competition started, could someone let me know.

So this is a warning to all non-USA residents, have a friends zip code and state ready for when/if you manage to collect all the frames for the last and final clip, #73.

So congrats 'Studded' and 'YodaMac & J9', worthy competitors and winners

*edit* I've been in touch with unlock@super8 and QMx facebook and twitter. I've still to get a reply.

They seem to have upped the frame capture rate, I've actually managed to get on the leader board. I have to say that I had lost some interest in collecting frames after shooting 6 videos with no frames. Now that the frames are coming up more often, I have a renewed interest.
