Amazon delivered mine (Origin edition with a framed coin and pin badge) this afternoon for my EggsBox One, after my friends saying how good it was.

I had to pry myself away from it because I forgot to feed my cat.. its SOOOO GOOD!!!

Im finding playing a healer.. is ranking me up in the top 4 everytime.. i love the Zen robot guy!

As Halish said, if your not a big fan of PvP arena / FPS games... this will change your mind.

1st I thought myself: why does Gareth makes it so difficult? There's an option / game for that in the app!

On a second thought I realised, that the FitBit app competition
a) only works for up to 10 friends
b) friends can only be added via Facebook profiles
c) I don't know your Facebook ^_^
d) it might be a problem for people regarding real names and data protection
...


Yup, though its good to add friends and see there progress, I thought it best just to ask for screen grabs as some people prefer not to share such personal info.

So all I need is a screen grab.. add nobody, link nobody... just a simple Screen grab :D

Android or iOS?

Normally both need some spare space for swap files. (Temporary space used).
If you close programs, it might show you some free space - but it's used up as soon as you starts more than one app.

Try to get rid of some photos or check, which app are the biggest and if you really need them at your phone.

Had e.g. Some games on it who took 3 GB in space and had it played and finished 2 years ago or iBooks sync downloading all my RPG books ...

Hope it helps.

But sounds like a splendid idea - some additional motivation is always good!

I'm in.

NOTE: screenshots can be taking on iOS devices by pressing the "On/Off and Home" bottoms simultaneously. The screenshots than can be chooses out of the photo app by selecting them and "sending them" to the mail app or into cloud services.

Hope this makes it easier for some captains who normally handle difficult galactic decisions and to such profound tasks ;)

I rarely hit my 10k steps target, maybe this will help motivate me. :P

One question, my phone doesn't have a screenshot function. Any other ways to submit steps?


There is an App you can get on the android market called "Screen grabber"

or Windows phone an app called "Screen capture"

or iphone an app called "Screen grabber"

all are free to download.

OR

if you have a webcam, or digital cam, or a family or friends phone cam.. you can take a quick pic of your phone?

FITBIT 5 DAY CHALLENGE
--------------------------------------



Starting MON 6th JUNE, a fun and easy going challenge will take place that you can do in your spare time day or night, all that's needed is your phone.. and a free App!





WHATS NEEDED?

- Fitbit app (free)
- Mobile phone
- your everyday activity


WHATS THE CHALLENGE?


The basic challenge is "How many steps you can do within 5 days".. who ever does the most steps.. wins, and runners up will win too.
Once you've downloaded this app, simply register plop in all your details.. it will take around 2 mins (dont worry no one can see your personal details except for you)
All we need to focus on is the "Steps" on the main app screen.


This will give you a tally of how many steps you've done in that day

The whole challenge is to see who has done the most steps in 5 days (Mon 6th - Fri 10th june) Whoever gets the most will win, and 2nd and 3rd place will get some Stonewall Credits too!!



HOW CAN I KEEP TRACK OF MY STEPS OVER THE 5 DAYS?


When you tap on the Steps indicator (as pictured above) it will give you a run down of the past days steps.



Take a screen grab of This at the end of your day on Fri 10th.. upload it, and send it to me in a private message.
Ill add up your Mon - Fri Steps.. and we will see whos done the most.

OR

Take a screen Grab EACH day at the end of every day of the main Steps display, and send them into me. (some older versions of the app may not have the previous days steps rundown activity, so taking a screen grab of each day will be a good back up)

You can upload the screen grab from your phone in various ways:
- To your cloud
- upload to a img host site direct from your phone
- Transfer to your PC through usb cable
- Email it to yourself and upload various image hosting sites like http://imgur.com/

1st place winner = 3 SWC
2nd place = 2 SWC
3rd place = 1 SWC


Runners up will also get a little something from me, just for having fun!

This challenge is all about fun, another way to collect up Stonewall credits for your self.. and its also cool to see how many steps you do through the day!



WHERE CAN I GET THE FITBIT APP?


Fitbit is available in all major App stores for Free
http://i.imgur.com/JEYdBI9.png

Look out for this logo in your app store.. and download..

It just takes a few mins to register.
and after this challenge, im sure you will be a fan of it, Like ive become.. it really is a handy and fun tool.


-----------------------------------------
IN BRIEF
-----------------------------------------

- Download the Fitbit App
- Do what you do each day
- Screen grab your weeks activity at the end of day friday
- upload, and send the image link to me in a private message
- see if your a winner


-------------------------------------------
SOME QUICK RULES
-------------------------------------------


Dont try to edit your screen grab, I have pixel training, I'll know.. I'll know
Dont strap your phone to your dog, cat or hamster wheel so they can rack up the steps for you.
Winners of Credits will be announced on Mon 13th, so be sure to get your Screen grabs into me before then


Hope you all have fun with this, to try and get yourself some SWCs to add to your total in this fun little challenge.

any questions, please feel free to ask on here, or PM me


---------------------------------------


Just editing the post to include that you DO NOT need a special fitbit band (health watch) to track your steps.
As Ive had some questions about thinking you need a special Fitbit Band for this. 100% no need for a band.. just your phone.

Your phone will track your motion.

When you are setting up your app, when you come to the device set up.. choose "no fitbit yet", and your phone will act as your monitor
