Topic, Game "BLockoban"

  Wait oldmanrob does mine counts?

  happy holidays to everybody. as a christmas gift from my side you will get a 5/5 for every block game i solve from yesterday to jan 1st 2014.

  I would like to wish everyone a wonderful holiday season. Merry Christmas.

  Don't forget murat's Bobbin

  If JP made someone an admin level 2, then they would be able to change the categories of the officials if he does decide to add a category.

  doing the packs would not be that big bussines for me. kick off levels is quick done. and do a new pack neither. the reevaluting would be harder, i guess. but if you use the pack you have only to look how many people solved the game. one, two and (maybe) three is insane. said this i vote no to a new category, anyway.

  I like the idea for an insane category, if it had been added when the game was first created. Adding a new category now may only take a few seconds, but the amount of effort required to go back five years to review and reevaluate over 1600 levels and decide if they're hard or insane would be quite excessive. Doing 20 levels at day would take almost three months. The level pack containing all the hard levels would also have to be completely redone and a new pack created for the insane levels. All of these could be done by oldmanrob and myself, however only JP has the access to create the new category and reevaluate the official levels. This would have to be JP's decision.

  Adding a category takes few seconds.

  Welcome back :)
@Camo:
I would say yes, but I don't think JP will update the game.

  Hey guys, i'm hoping to be back soon, :)

I love Bonuslevel.

  Does JP need to be here for another category to be added to this game? Because after looking through some of my levels and considering some of the levels out there, I think that this game needs an "Insane" category like the one in Puzzle It. Whereas some Hard levels only have one difficult trick but are manageable or have a semi-forgiving design, others are complete nightmares. My level Golden Hook (BLockoban) and Monty's level Scythe (BLockoban) spring to mind as potential levels that could be put in the Insane category, whereas levels like Deceiving Light (BLockoban) and Deathly Hallows (BLockoban) could stay in the Hard category.

  Yeah thanks for the support as well ^.^ I'll keep on making new levels every day. I really enjoy the diversity created by this community, I would like to thank all of you guys for making this environment fun and exciting each day ^.^

  Thanks magnacumlaud for the support. As a level creator, it means a lot to have people compliment my levels, so thanks a million :)

I'd like to echo the shoutout to bbdest as well, great job with all your creative levels. I'd also like to extend that thanks to all the level creators, such as Monty, SuperMario, and ThisIsMyUsername to name a few, almost all of the new levels coming in are great fun to play and unique, so I thank you guys for that.

  Thanks a lot to Camo and bbdest for their really enjoying and creative levels every new day!

  Super Game

  About the part where you said "making a 5/5 easy level is more difficult than making a 5/5 hard level", yeah I really know that pain for thinking on making something original for an easy, heck, even kids level today.

  @TM Issue 1:

@TM Issue 2:

  My apologies. I totally misread El's msg.

  Super Game

  You forgot:
mega happy c: / C: / c= / C=
mega sad :c / :C / =c / =C
big eyes happy =) / (=
big eyes sad =( / )=

  It's another to do a happy face.
There are two kinds of happy face
:) and (: ( I use :) )
And also sad face
:( and ): ( I use :( )

  Toughman, that is not a sad face, that is a happy face

  I don't get the sad face Elizea but I'm sure you have your reasons. Just hope it is not because of my msg.

  This is one of the main reasons why I was starting to like this game. :)

  BB community is hands down friendliest and nicest online community I've ever seen. Also, these "thank you community" posts have started to become a monthly event? (:

  I have to agree with Small and OMG for their remarks. I really want to thank everybody for their contribution but have come across with two problems for which I have an opinion but do not want to bias the answer so I would appreciate everyone's assistance (as a poll):
Issue 1: If you were to pay your respects to ppl within this community how would you prioritize their contribution (from 1 to 5) vis-a-vis the following (presented in alphabetical order): administrators, creator(s) of the game, designers, members and players.
Issue 2: I always have the feeling that when rating a level I should rate it as 5/5 (irrespective of quality, difficulty or any other criteria) because it is an achievement itself and every designer deserves to get boosted in order to keep making levels for all of us [Murat's way of thinking]. However I also acknowledge and resect OMR, Jxyz and other's opinion that a level should be rated accordingly in order to enhance and improve the game's quality. I believe that if the rating was out of 100 I would feel more comfortable rating all levels 95 and the remaining 5 points could go to the unique ones. I know it is more psychological but a community's existance and improvement is based on psychology. What do you guys and ladies think?

To sum it up a simple but hearted THANK YOU to everyone for making my (limited) leisure time entertaining, playful and joyful!!

  I have to echo small's remarks, and thank her for her kind words towards all of the designers. At times it is easy to overlook the fact that we have a tremendous amount of talent and intelligence concentrated in such a small community. We all need to put forth the effort to thank those who provide entertainment and intellectual challenge for our leisure hours. I would also like to encourage all of our designers to keep up the good work,and to remember that your efforts are greatly appreciated. I would also say that I feel honored to have been supported and accepted as a member of this elite group of artists and intellectuals.

  Hi,

admire all of the magnificent,marvelous, superb made levels from all players and enjoy to play all of them. Thank you to all who made such very best constructions!!!

  Aw, well ty SuperMario :)

There's not a lot of comments activity anymore IMO. Seems like everyone's even more busy than I am (not to so say that is their fault).

And my level Golden Hook (BLockoban) hasn't even been solved yet, and it's been out for a week now. That would've been insane back when I played this a couple years ago. Miss the activity of the pros... I know they're still around and probably just really occupied but I miss "the good old days"...

EDIT: Discovered an editor bug. Say you have a block with four links on it. If you continue to put links on it (e.g. if you were putting links on a group and dragged the arrow around) it counts these as separate objects and the block appears lighter in the editor. When you try to delete the block you have to click an extra time for each of the "stacked" links, even though there is no visual sign that anything is getting removed (other than the block darkening). This applies vice versa for blocks with any combination of stacked links, but does not appear to happen when you make blocks icy.
More of an FYI to designers than a critical problem, but there you go.

EDIT2: If you place enough of one link on a block, all other links fade and the block appears white, though it returns to its normal color in-game.

  It's fun to see Camo is making some activity on BB again :)
