Wow! Thanks for it, it's really good!

Meh

Thanks. :)

Its only available to regular posters, so if your post count drops so does access to the games!

Enjoy! :D

Can you move the champion titles to the side of a users name, if they are the champion of several things the area above their posts could get quite big?

Behemoth
15-03-2005, 17:03
Oh cool, I think thats a really good idea! What is it decided on? Your post count or number of posts per day?

Meh
15-03-2005, 17:05
Decided on both. Keeping the numbers secret for the time being.

Yup, looking at changing that. I just installed it, so there's gonna be a few changes that need to be made.

Fair Enough :) Check out all my championships :D

Behemoth
15-03-2005, 17:45
If your post count drops below the level of being able to use the games, do you lose your championships?

Meh
15-03-2005, 18:02
Don't think so. You just can't play any games. You should be OK though :)

Behemoth
15-03-2005, 18:06
That's ok then :D I would hate to lose all my little trophy pictures lol

How often do you have to post to keep arcade access or is it by post count only?
Also what happens if you don't post regularly? Does the link vanish?

Meh
15-03-2005, 20:49
Still configuring it. At the moment its set to 10 posts and an average post of 1/day.

The link doesn't vanish - you just can't play any games.

Treacle
15-03-2005, 21:18
That's a good idea Mordor. Do posts in "Fun & Games" count for this?

Meh
15-03-2005, 23:49
Not at the moment ...

Treacle
16-03-2005, 00:00
Is it actually 10 posts a day or does it go by that thing in your profile that says: (59.63 post a day)?

EDIT: Forget it I've worked it out. I need 1 more post today to use the arcade LOL. That'll get people posting!!! :)

Behemoth

I LOVE this new arcade! It's such an original idea and it's really addictive and fun, especially Tetris and Hexxagon. Thanks Mordor!

Treacle
16-03-2005, 09:36
Osiris that Hexxagon was making me tear my hair out LOL.

Behemoth
16-03-2005, 09:51
LOL, It's well hard isn't it! I dunno how I managed to get 37. By a complete fluke I think!

Treacle
16-03-2005, 09:59
Them silver shiny balls are doing my head in they keep zapping my rubies LOL.

Behemoth
16-03-2005, 16:35
I know, that keeps happening to me aswell! I hate that zapping sound, really frustrating lol, like the shiny things are laughing at me :D

And another thing, can anybody else actually clearly see the bat/paddle thing on the Breakout game?

Meh
16-03-2005, 16:47
Yup, the bat and paddle are clear here.

Behemoth
16-03-2005, 17:00
Really? It looks dark grey to me and its really hard to see it on the black background. I'm not making excuses for my poo score, honest!

Treacle
16-03-2005, 21:39
It's white here. Maybe it's the colour setting on your monitor?

Behemoth
16-03-2005, 23:20
hmm.....it could be. I have the brightness and contrast on high so that can't be it. I'll try and edit the colours using windows.

Treacle
16-03-2005, 23:56
Okay :)

Behemoth
17-03-2005, 09:46
Morning everyone! I'm now off to play in the arcade :D

Treacle
17-03-2005, 10:13
Yay...I love it :D

pie_man
17-03-2005, 12:44
i agree - lots of fun for everyone.

thanks again

Behemoth

Jude! You've been beaten at Tetris!

Treacle
17-03-2005, 22:25
judejude is very good in the arcade.

Jade
17-03-2005, 22:28
Jude! You've been beaten at Tetris!

I know, but I just beat Mordor at snake!! I dont know how in the hell that person got such a high score mine was a complete fluke :)

pie_man
17-03-2005, 22:57
how on earth did Torrie manage 56 in hex?
wow!

Treacle
17-03-2005, 22:57
I can't beat anybody at that hexxagon game. It's sooo hard.

Meh
17-03-2005, 23:40
Forget that, look at the simon game!

Treacle
17-03-2005, 23:58
The Simon game is another hard one. I tried to cheat and write each thing down in notepad when it got busier but then it gets faster as well.

Meh
17-03-2005, 23:59
Lol.

Its good for improving your memory though.

Jade
18-03-2005, 00:01
The Python (on snake) is too hard going to stick to the worm! (no inuendo intended)

Meh
18-03-2005, 00:03
Lol.
More games coming on soon, and that reminds me about the smilies I need to put on as well.

Jade
18-03-2005, 00:06
Sounds like you have a lot on your plate!

Meh
18-03-2005, 00:10
Enough without having to try and get my snake championship back! :)

Jade
18-03-2005, 00:11
I'll give it a rest over the weekend as i'm starting to get blisters!

Enough time to get your post count up though :)

Meh
18-03-2005, 00:13
I was sliding down the rankings of top posters!

Treacle
18-03-2005, 00:21
I always find it weird why you change your post count? Does the top boss have to be THE top poster? :)

I'm the REAL top poster :p

Meh
18-03-2005, 00:23
Not really! But hey, I pay for all this so I think I'm entitled to some privledges!

Jade
18-03-2005, 00:24
As long as you dont tamper with the Snake scores!!

Treacle
18-03-2005, 00:26
LOL I want the top score and anyways there isn't a champion of Hexxagon the computer always wins!!! :D

Meh
18-03-2005, 00:33
As long as you dont tamper with the Snake scores!!

Nah, there's no joy in that. You have to rise to the challenge!

I think I might be able to get sonic on the arcade ...

Jade
18-03-2005, 00:34
Cool!! I havent played that in years!

Treacle
18-03-2005, 00:38
Oh Sonic sounds good but don't spoil us too much :) I can't believe what an excellent community we have here now.

Meh
18-03-2005, 00:42
And there's more to come yet - if only I could work on this full time ...

Treacle
18-03-2005, 00:46
LOL, I'm going to make a suggestion now in the staff forum... :)

*JSW*
18-03-2005, 00:58
I can't believe what an excellent community we have here now.
I really agree with you!

I feared when these boards were set up in the beginning that they would inherit the problems of the BBC boards. Text talk, fake spoilers etc but so far everything has been fantastic. Brilliant members, excellent moderating and an excellent mix of forums has led to a brilliant board.

I believe that only 2 peopel have had to be banned (Mordor-you should know!) and all without relative fuss. I've just got to say a big thank you Mordor for everything here!

Meh
18-03-2005, 01:01
Thanks, but the community develops by like minded people getting together so its really the posters that are making it work.

There's more than two people banned. Unfortunately you get some right idiots as well.

Jade
18-03-2005, 01:01
You do get the odd freak/idiot but in the main everyone is really nice. I think it helps that there are mods online frequently to monitor things (not like the BBC)

Treacle
18-03-2005, 01:03
I am enjoying it anyways and the arcade has been a good twist.

Jade
18-03-2005, 01:04
Loving the arcade.

Treacle
18-03-2005, 01:05
It gives a new sense of community to the forum.

Jade
18-03-2005, 01:05
And competion.... :)

Treacle
18-03-2005, 01:12
Yes it's nice just to have that competitive edge.

Torrie
18-03-2005, 13:43
Loving the arcade but there's one problem - it's too addictive, lol! I'm getting no work done!

Behemoth
18-03-2005, 17:29
Torrie, you've stolen my Hexxagon championship! I was well chuffed when I won that lol.

Torrie
18-03-2005, 18:13
Sorry, lol - I did a real double take when I saw my score!

Meh
18-03-2005, 18:15
Care to share the strategy for Hexxagon?

Torrie
18-03-2005, 18:17
Wish I'd paid more attention to what I was doing 'cos I haven't been able to get anywhere near that since - it was a total fluke! Far as I can tell though swearing at the little pearls helps - especially when they seem to laugh at you, lol! :D

Meh
18-03-2005, 18:19
Lol - i'll have to waste sometime playing it this week.

Treacle
18-03-2005, 20:52
I wouldn't bother I doubt you'll beat 50 odd I can't beat my score and was pretty proud to get it even though it's only 20 odd.

Behemoth
23-03-2005, 14:27
My 37 was a fluke, I've been losing since I managed that.
