Facebook Offer - earn D$100 free

October 16, 2008 at 09:35PM View BBCode

I've setup an Application on Facebook for Sim Dynasty. You can see it here:

http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=20120189732

Click on Go To Application and you can link it to your Sim Dynasty account. The application shows the current standings for each of your teams. Not earth shattering, but a cool little thing.

You can set this up to show in your Application Tabs (Click Profile on Facebook, Application Tabs are Wall, Info, Boxes, Etc.)

You can also set this up to show up as a Box if you click the button that says Add to My Profile. Boxes can be placed in the Boxes tab, or underneath the Friends area.

A couple other things. All the links to Sim Dynasty are setup with your referral code. So if any of your Facebook friends see your teams and want to signup, you will get the referral credits. I am also giving D$100 to anyone that "links" their Facebook and Sim Dynasty accounts.

I have some other cool ideas that may come in the future with this, depending on how popular it becomes. For now, I look at it as a fun way to see your team standings and an unobtrusive way to promote Sim Dynasty to your friends.

Hi Tyson, I checked with a friend's SD facebook application and appeared to be able to make a trade through the application.

When I clicked on a player on his team and then "propose trade," it said I couldn't make a trade because I wasn't in the same league. If I was in the same league, would the application allow me to propose a trade to my team from his team? If so, you need to close that hole.

jbuss9999 - You probably have added the application, but you'll need to link your SD account and Facebook accounts. You can do this by going to the link above, clicking Go To Application, then entering your SD account info.

When I clicked on a player on his team and then "propose trade," it said I couldn't make a trade because I wasn't in the same league. If I was in the same league, would the application allow me to propose a trade to my team from his team? If so, you need to close that hole.
If you were in the same league as him, you could use his depth chart to propose a trade to him.

It is from the depth chart. It isn't specific from facebook, you have these options and error message when you are looking at the depth chart from someone in another league.

Tyson,

If someone joins SimDynasty by linking through our facebook account, do we get referral credit?

The links from your profile box has your referral code built into it. So if they use this link to signup for Sim Dynasty, you will get referral credits.

Thanks for posting, I think one of the users must have deleted his facebook account which was screwing up the update script. I've corrected the problem.

I'm now seeing a blank page instead of the standings, it used to work but I haven't checked in a few days.

Ok, I have fixed that issue - Facebook changed something up on their end that caused this error.

It is amazing how often Facebook changes the API, and how successful the 3rd party apps are in spite of this.

According to the credits, I've linked my facebook to SimD, but I don't seem to be able to get in from the facebook page. Can you look and let me know if I did something wrong.

TY

Just checked in on this facebook application, and it's not showing the standings any more.

Not that it's a big deal.

Just figured I'd pass along the heads up for those who care.

Maybe if there is a way of showing your alias in SD instead, so when we sort through the crap, we would know each other.

That might get more facebook activity and possibly lead to more referred customers.

Also, maybe instead of the standings, some type of SD cool image crap or something on your facebook site if we wanted to help sponsor the site, etc.

Thanks, I'll look into this. I changed it to only run once a night last week, but maybe it isn't working properly.

It looks okay on my profile, can you friend me on facebook so I can take a look? It should be updating once a night around midnight.

I've got the same issue, nothing is showing up on my Facebook page. Not a big deal, but it would be nice if it worked.

Let me take a look, I turned on logging for this last night. My guess is that it is failing half way through before it gets to everyone.
