No Good Pictograms

LightofEvenstar's picture
My issue is that after just hearing about the new pictorgrams, like, just now, after not playing this game for over two years, I go to sign up, and there are no good ones! I read that players who already had accounts were making new ones by the thousands, and often the same people! Yeah, thanks a lot.

I went through hundreds of pictorgrams. Their not as bad as what they used to be, thank god. Before all there was, was just random squiggly, but still, there are no good ones. All I can find are ones with random oval/leaf/eye shapes and half circles placed everywhere with no order. It took me forever to find one I could live with. All it is, is a half circle with an upside-down T on the bottom, with a teardrop in the middle.

So, yeah. Thanks people for ruining it for new players and old players coming back. I hope your satisfied with yourselves.

You can't blame other people

You can't blame other people for you not finding one you liked right away. It's essentially a random game of luck, and I guess you weren't very lucky in your search.

All pictograms are beautiful

All pictograms are beautiful in their own way. You should appreciate them more :/

Like Mag said, it's just a game of luck. They are randomized. People just don't make them, they can't. They are generated as they come.

I think you're exaggerating

I think you're exaggerating just a huge tiny bit there with the 'thousands' part.

There's also a lot of generous people here who are trading and offering up older pictograms of their own. Perhaps you could look at those threads and see if maybe you could get one of those ones you -do- like.

Its been a long time since

Its been a long time since 3rd gen pictograms were launched, its only normal that by now there aren't many to your liking. You just needed to go looking for people that is offering to give you some, because even when not looking for it, I have found people wishing to give them away.

Btw, I can't see how not having a pictogram you wished would "ruin" your gameplay.

The pictograms are made, I

The pictograms are made, I know because when you are searching for pictograms, you often see the same two or three pictograms (that you remember) generated again. If you want proof of this, go through all the pictograms you can and remember the ones that are easy to remember, then download CCleaner and run it and then go through the pictograms again. You will see a few ones that you recgonize that you have seen before.

I've been scrolling through

I've been scrolling through the pictogram creator for several minutes, and I've already found three or four that were genuinely pretty- and easily recognizable. The random pictograms for generation 1 and 2 still had their vast share of incomprehensible squiggles and shapes; it's no different now than it was back then, in brutal honesty. I had to scroll for an extremely long time, especially in generation 1, to find pictograms I clicked with.

Heck, I admittedly find this generation absolutely stunning; I'd swap over in a heartbeat if I weren't so attached to my own pictograms (and if I didn't own so many accounts already)! Sticking out tongue

Are you really that

Are you really that discerning with your tastes? This generation is gorgeous, and there are still hundreds of amazing pictograms in the creator. Stop being so impatient and keep looking. I guarantee you will find one you like, unless you're trying to see a gen 1 among the 3s.
