Shoutbox Trivia & Awards

[WHO]

Seriously, we have so many talented artists on this site yet they couldn't find someone to make a good looking forum award?

This seems like it was put together in a day. Really a disappointment.

 

[ashleighsux]

I thought it was fun.

 

[philitup]

Does anyone even know who won?

 

[Kirito]

It was more of a typing contest than a trivia. Some questions were tricky and it took a while for someone to get the right answer, which I liked. But others were so obvious it was just a typing contest and who has the fastest internet contest. That should be changed.

It was fun, but more questions necessitating scavenging need to be used

 

[WHO]

Also, another complaint/suggestion/criticism (since I'm sure we will all consider it different things), keep the FORUM AND GAME SEPARATE.

Just get over it guys. They weren't required to do this. They did it because they love the game.

 

[katrina]

it was fun but just because its myvmk trivia, doesnt mean there should be questions about the first room amy ever entered in myvmk...

 

[Kaeliah]

I've got to agree as well. I don't understand how difficult it is to find a GFX artist, there are many talented people in this community who would be more than willing to help out.

I'm pretty sure they wanted a game where they could include every instead of just 25 people at a time like host events in the game. Perhaps this was a test run for some other idea they might have as well.

Thank you for the feedback and thank you to everyone who participated in our first trial run event! The current award image is only a placeholder and will be revamped soon. We are currently planning to have these trivia games once every two weeks.

Staff Awards )))))

I didn't even attempt to participate in the trivia because it just seemed like a bad idea.

There should just be an actual chat with a bot that automatically plays chat games when someone starts them. That way when a chat game contest is happening it can go smoothly and when no contest is going on chat games can still be played by those who want to play them. That's how I've played chat games before (with a bot) and they usually run better.

I also agree with this.

The problem with this is most chatboxes take up a huge amount of resources for a server. So on top of having to worry about covering a server for the game (which could be a better server imo) and a server for the forums, they would have to spend extra money to make sure the chat room doesn't bog down the forum server and make it excruciatingly slow when doing simple things like browsing and replying to threads.

My response to this whole thread............

They could have the chat on an external website.
