    Challenges

    What do you mean "test?" But yeah, these challenges are just a way to have fun and interact in new ways. Maybe people will learn something. Maybe someone will have a chance to show off a hidden skill. Most of them will be puzzles of some sort (even some challenge in a video game is like a puzzle), and I, for one, really enjoy puzzles. I wish someone would make high quality puzzles for me, so I'm offering to make high-quality puzzles for you guys

    Challenges

    Mostly because I'm worried that I won't have enough participants. I plan on challenges being diverse (and hard) enough that it's not reasonable for everyone to be able to complete every challenge. For instance, I have two really cool calculus I and calculus II problems (I wrote them because I tutor those subjects) and it's not realistic to expect most of my viewer base to attempt to learn the necessary math without some incentive. That was just an example. But for instance, you could emulate Melee on Dolphin and record with OBS (all these things are free). Or if you have a gamecube/wii you could honestly just use a phone to record the screen. Yeah, quality would be terrible, but the idea is just to prove you did it. I will try to make the challenges as accessible as possible (so games that can be downloaded for free, or are so widely available that almost everyone has access, or math that is tricky but all the components can be easily learned through various YT tutorials).

    Challenges

    Is anyone interested in competing in some kind of non-battleforge challenges? I was thinking things like math problems, word games, riddles, trivia hunting, or any other categories you guys can think of. They may be something as simple as "find the brand of chocolate based on an ingredient list" or even something like "get the highest home run contest score in Super Smash Bros Melee." I would state the challenge, and you guys would compete. Depending on the challenge, different points will be awarded. For instance, the first person to solve the challenge might get 5 points, and everyone else gets 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 depending on the order they get it after the first person. Or everyone who gets it on the first day gets 5 points, and 4 on the 2nd day, etc. For something with degrees of correctness (like the home run contest), points would be awarded based on who did the best after the deadline has passed. When the game enters open Beta/full release (after I have time to build up some bfp) I'll give rewards based on who has the points points. It will probably be something like 1 bfp per point (so even people with few points have a reason to compete) with some extra card bonuses for the top 3. I might also throw in some small bonuses (like an uncommon card or something) to the 1st place winner of each individual challenge. If at least 10 people post that they would be interested in something like this, I'll do it!
  4. For some reason this reminds me of Pepsi
  5. Looks really good! I only wish there was a bit more interaction between the front letters and back letters. Like maybe the tali of the "y" could hook through the hole in the "e" or something. Just some effect to make it look a bit more complex then just "reborn" on top of "skylords"
  6. One of the most unexpected moments I've ever seen or played in Battleforge! Check out my latest replay where @YaBro0 has to eat his words and admit how overpowered a certain card is:

      Don't be so sure. It's so easy to underestimate that puny thing

      Great! Now everybody's gonna lame deathgliders. What's next? I hope you don't tell'em about banner of glory!

  7. @Lukaznid any chance I could also get an amazon, treespirit, mortar, and stone tempest? If not, just let me know and I'll upload the replays with all scavengers or something.
  8. @Lukaznid how about scythe fiends and Skyfire drake next?
  9. Thanks! I'll take the second one. And now, I can post that replay
  10. @Lukaznid any chance you could do a promo jugger? Hoping to upload a new replay today
  11. Where do you find your 100th post?
  12. Just to be clear, the name of the game is still Battleforge, right? Just, the project to revive it is now called Skylords Reborn? (In other words, we should advertise this on media as "Skylords Reborn: The Project to Revive Battleforge"?)
  13. NAME: Game Semi-Frozen SEVERITY: 1 LOCATION: PvP and multiplayer-PvE match REPRODUCIBILITY: None (haven't tried again, but no idea what caused it DESCRIPTION: The game froze. It looked like a lag spike that never ended, but the chatbox still worked. I could also use the menus, but "leave game" did nothing. When Ultrakool left, it let me know that he left, but nothing else changed on my end. "Exit Battleforge" worked. SCREENSHOT/VIDEO: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: First time this has happened, no idea what caused it.
  14. He's back! Glad you're alright, I was worried because I haven't seen you in a while.
  15. I request a special clause that says you can't ban my deck. Otherwise I will only stream, and not participate.
  16. I'm currently working on a full BF tutorial (series) that would cover anything from absolute basics, to strategy mindsets, to specific techs. So a polished (i.e: rehearsed and animated) tutorial video is on the way, eventually
  17. I THINK the problem is that you should use your username to sign in, instead of your email.
  18. I'm not sure that's a bug....
  19. I did google that. I was hoping someone would explain if it was worth my time to play.
  20. I TD for chess, so I can do Swiss pairings by hand (and I have a program)
