What the devs DIDN'T mention, is that you can create MULTIPLE accounts. All you need is to have seperate gmail accounts for each Swarm account you set up (google allows you to have a many as you'd like). In order to access/create each account on the same phone/device, just go to "settings", then "applications", then "manage applications" then "project inf" then select "clear data". Don't worry. You're not losing anything. You're just deleting your last "saved sign in" info. Now, go to the app, and create/sign in another account (remember, you have to use another email/screen name), and create 6 more chars. Repeat this until you have as many characters as you want. 12, 144, 288, etc.. No more "keeping a slot open for that creative name".

this sounds like a big a** exploit waiting to happen

Unfortunately, anytime you go to username/password authentication you open up a system for that kind of (ab)use. While not technically an exploit, it is an annoyance when you try to establish some level of knowing who people are... which, in a social game, is relatively important. Oh well, c'est la vie.

I have tried many times and many ways to get past the new sign in screens with out luck. I have tried many times to get a new password sent to me. Without ever seeing a response from chicken brick.
INF has been going down hill in many ways since the previous updates. With me not even being able to receive a simple email from CBS about a password new or not ,so I can get in to play then.....
I will try 1 more time in a week or two. If it is not fixed by then I am out and I will retire from game.

I get the fealing there will be no more updates worth any reason to come back for.

So......... I guess this is good bye (most likely).

I have had fun and INF was my favorite game by far for over a year. I had a lot of fun playing and BSing with all u crazy f*cks.

*throws flash bang* POOF GONE*

We're working on digging through the email box, but we've been extremely busy the last 2 days, and have had a TON of emails regarding the new system. I love that a lapse of like 10 hours, for people who do this in their spare time can be seen as such a heinous crime.

Most definitely not an exploit. Just a behavior of the system. You can go create multiple gmail accounts to get around their 7gb limit right? You can make multiple Facebook accounts without a problem, etc. Just going to mention however, that if it becomes a huge thing, we'll need to look into it further to figure out how to avoid it (more accounts = more servers = higher costs, etc).

No breaks allowed.

Certain things there is absolutely nothing we can do about: clicking an item/ability _just_ before you die, and dying before it kicks in, etc. This is due to the delay in how long it takes your phone to send a message to the server saying "I used an item/ability". Slower networks suffer longer delays in this area, and short of upgrading your network, nothing can be done. Use wifi to limit this.

Not true because wi-fi has a larger overhead in security then 4g so you have a 50/50 chance of being slower or faster, just to set the record straight. 4g is your best bet, if yor on 3 g , better odds with wi-fi

Heres a question why have so many peoples characters gone "missing" since the update?

[HotMama]

Implementing a new system isn't glitch free I'm sure. Just email them games@chickenbrickstudios.com and they can restore lost chars
