We are classy.

by

Update: The new “¡Viva la Turret!” version is being submitted tonight, so the delay may only amount to a week or two.

It is apparently in bad taste to name your gametype after an affliction for which perfectly nice people are ridiculed. Lesson learned. The gametype formerly known as Turret’s Syndrome has met strong opposition over what is perceived, by some, as objectionable content. We’re now in the process of renaming it “¡Viva la Turret!” and resubmitting the update.

How will this affect the December delivery of Turret’s Syndrome? It’s likely to push it into early January, but we’re exploring every possible avenue to deliver this month. We’ll keep you updated.

    Maybe the 1.6 will come first and then be updated. The timing doesn’t really matter since the earliest I’ll possibly get the update is on the 8th due to spontaneous vacationing.

    This is ridiculous. How many people were actually “opposed” to the name? If I had Tourette’s Syndrome I would think it’s a really amusing name and great play on words. It’s sad that people are made to bow down to an extreme minority. People need to learn to laugh at themselves once in a while instead of taking offense at things.

    Wow. Lmao. I didn’t notice that. Was Apple the one opposed? That’s aggravating. That was an epic name and now I have to wait even longer…. That sucks guys I wish it coulda stayed the same… Still kinda funny though.

    I can’t imagine too many Tourettes Syndrome patients can play this game. They have those crazy tics that make it sorta hard to Tilt to Live.

    I don’t like the new name, I liked the old name, and I didn’t even notice the pun. I dislike apple sometimes…

    I dont think the Tourettes Guy would approve of this.

    Hey, um… do in-app purchases sync? Because I’m sharing an account with 2 iPhones and an iPad.

    old name was better… I miss it already 🙁

    btw, the “how to cope with turret’s syndrome” post’s title is way funnier now…

    Was this Apple’s request? Grrr…

  11. Avenged110 says:

    @T-Will probably. They’re usually the only ones who would, after about a week, require a change for “objectionable content”.

    Does the iPad version support Game Center yet? If not, will it be in this upcoming update?

    Hopefully this will be released before christmas, minigore was submitted last friday the same day OML originnaly submitted the update and it was just released today, only one week. So, I am hoping for a 21st december release date if apple doesn’t close the app store early 🙂

    can you give any prediction, when the update will be available?
    thx
