Topic, Game "BLockoban"

  There should be a fifth category like Extreme for players who prefer to solve challenging levels than only block pushing. It is the same with Sudokus: solve one or just writing numbers!

  Hey guys read the message in my pack. I'm really struggling now. I've solved 7580 levels so far, I hope I can make it to 8000 at least, then i'll have 1067 levels remaining. I'll do my best, and I'll keep making tons of challenges and great designs for you guys to play. So have fun. But my time is much limited now as my grandparents are in the hospital. I've been extremely busy the past week. My mom and dad have been driving to the hospital to see them 2-3 times a week so I've been more occupied with my life/friends/and family. From here on out, I'm focusing a lot more on me and my life and family so I'm not going to be posting like I used to and my time is going to have to be limited here.

  But we have still the @dminProfOmg.

  I understand that, I'm just sad about that only few admins are active most of them left this site.

  @pig You're not the only with unevaluated levels. The administrator has a real life he has to live. So just be patient and he will look at our levels when he have the time.

  Huh? I have 23 levels unevaulated.

  @greyanna it does. but not immediately. it's a little bit confusing if you don't know.

  Sometimes this strange Plugin doesn't work fine. Now, it does not safe new Thumbnail on database?

@Omr yes, really it was! Thanks a lot!

  I have 69 I will do another 1% :)

  I will do 1%. Now i have 66.

  Time to start the count-down. We can make it by December 31, 2018.

  The level count is over nine thousand!! Awesome job to all the designers!!

  Wow, congratz on 9000 levels of Blockoban. That is a huge achievement. This game is so addicting plus PI and Jellify.

  Nice work to all the designers for that achievement. Wonder when 10k will be broken?

  9002 levels jippi!!

  You mean in terms of grammar? "Too many" would mean "an excess" which is probably what you mean. "To many" would be used in something such as "he gave food to many people."

  Is it:: to many or too many?

@Camo yeah grammar, thanks a lot Dragoon.

  @greyanna Thanks for the confidence, but I'm not to decide on this matter. Also, like gameinsky said, levels still get evaluated regularly.

  I'm not sure why SimonM needs to become admin? Levels still get evaluated are regular intervals. If oldmtnguy thinks we need a new admin I wouldn't be against it though.

  @ SimonM please become Admin to evaluate levels.

edit: @gameinsky see your post 1 month ago nope

@ Chris man u solved such mass of levels i didn' t even try! Do you really think it's not getting harder for me or other ones too? I am sure you will solve lots more if you believe in yourself although u will stuck sometimes only for a moment! On harder levels i just start with trial and error then you get a feeling for the difficulties and problems. You see which step depends on another which have i do first before the other one works. So i find (sometimes really slowly) the sequential arrangement.If there is no such progress and it's starts to nerves me i leave it and go back sometimes after a year. You are a great level designer e.g. Linking Colors - i love it - people with such creative potential capacity and ability to think ahead too are in every case able to solve hard levels. Maybe not each of them but who cares! Not even our GrandMasters have solved each level! So: believe in your qualities and enjoy the game without bringing yourself into pressure and stress and above all without any reason!!!
Btw: Did you have a look to your Pack-Ranks?

edit: you are in three of them under the top eight!

  I just keep trying. Trying different starting moves, next moves, etc. Then I will leave and go to a different level if I am not getting it. Often when I return it falls into place. That's when I think, duh, how couldn't I get that. Though there are many levels I still can't solve. That is one of the joys of this game, you do not have to remain stuck and can go to other levels and back!

  Hey guys, look I wanted to tell the truth about something. I feel hesitant to ask for help when I need it b/c I don't to bug anyone. But it's getting harder for me to solve levels now. I've solved like 50 within the past month and I usually am more better and structured at this game. What strategies do you guys use to solve medium and hard levels?

@Oldmtnguy: I sent you a PM 2 weeks ago, I guess you're busy with your new house and moving. Whenever you get a chance can you please check it. And I hope everyone is enjoying the new year so far. I hope we can get to 9,000 levels soon.

  i'm a gentleman of the old school. when a young lady is in difficulty i do my best to help her.

  @chris I got my own individual strategy: i have a look if OMR has solved the level, if yes: then i solve it too with a better score.
@OMR do you maybe misunderstood the grey? but thanks a lot!

  @ kalina. In response to your "question", I have been evaluating levels for over seven years and no levels have EVER been skipped. They are looked at in the order that they were uploaded. Your last one was uploaded 13 hrs ago and there are 25 levels ahead of it. Your first one will be done today. It is second in line. I do this with no compensation, just love the game. I've been occupied with building a new house, packing and moving and have not had a lot of extra time. I apologize if you feel inconvenienced.

  This isn't self promotion, but I think my BL levels have been skipped, about 2 weeks ago I made a level. Since then I've uploaded 2 more, and no feedback on any. While they have been sitting dormant many have been accepted/rejected/edited.

Sorry, i'm not complaining, just questioning.

  I've got kind of strategy that helped me to solve many medium level and even some hard too. I play games created by the same artist. Except for CD that has an incredible variety of tricks and murat that play in a league of his own most creators use similar ticks. So if you have solved one you will be able to solve more. For instance after solving Rally no.8 by suhangha i was able to solve more Rally i was stuck with ever since.

  Hey Blockoban community, I just wanted to say thank you designers for the levels over the past 7-8 years, I have had so much fun on this site, hopefully there will maybe be 10000 lvls here by 2019. And thanks to Oldmtnguy, GIS, and Elizea for evaluating all the levels over the past 6-7 years. And congratz OMR on solving 8000, I just solved 7500 yesterday. And I'm hoping to reach 8000 soon. I've been getting a lot of highscores on old levels too, so I'm getting much better at this game.

But I must ask, what strategies do you guys use to solve the hard levels? I seem to be stuck on most of the ones I have left, which is 1,383. And how have my levels been, I'm trying to make as many as I can, to keep this game alive and to boost my EXP and maybe become trusted. And I understand that oldmtnguy is busy with life and the admins so I will be patient and understanding on the levels getting evaluated. Thanks. If I didn't care I wouldn't be posting at all, I do it to encourage other people on making more levels.

Chris

  Woah, sounds like a massive undertaking, best of luck with that!

  @oldmanrob That's some good progress there!
