I thought the point of this game was to check in places you actually visit?

That's what it is to me. I check in to places, then see who else might be there along with me, maybe strike up a conversation...

I've met a whole bunch of people in the marketing department at school through foursquare, and we've had crazy in-depth discussions about how we can leverage it. We just deployed it for one of our real-life clients too, and he loves it! It actually has benefited his business.

if you created the venue, u can change the info by going to the venue page and clicking this icon, , which is above the map.

you can change the icon of the venue by going into your history page and clicking the '?' and then selecting the appropriate category.

So how does a CRUNK badge work? Does the 4 stops all need to be put in as Nightlife or bar, or all done at night?

Secondly, is anyone else getting pissed off at how people add things?

I don't have OCD or anything, but how hard is it to use descriptive names, and capitalize and spell correctly?

I know I at least try to remember every few days to edit the venues I add with the correct address and catergorization...

i hate when there's multiple locations of the same place. seriously, don't add new venues if they already exist just so u can get more points!

There should be a way to contest an entry, and you can state what's wrong with it. ie. wrong spelling, missing info, wrong address, wrong icon etc..

yeh definitely...a 'flag' option should be implemented.

oh and when u get the crunked bagde this is what it says, "That's 4+ stops in one night for you!"

so i assume all 4 stops have to be after a certain time in one night.

Posted by Mach X on Apr-30-2010 04:15:

So they just assume moving place to place at night is drunk/drinking related... which is almost 99.9999999% true... but still, kind of presumptuous!

Epic points battle between me and Geoff this week.

It is forcing me to go eat lunch new places and stray away from my regular routine - actually starting to see some of the fun in this 'game'
