got 500 finally

AK 13 years ago

Ummmmm..... that's a bit extreme Jynx... No kids level has over 100 moves... O.O

And for the easy ones over 100? Well, that's what we call....

Dang it, still forgot the word... starts with a T...

Te....
Um....

I forgot... But yeah, I kinda agree. But some levels can't be bothered to be changed, or they'd ruin the level...

And some of those levels are actually easy, they just take a while...

AK i think you missed my point, i dont want levels that are kids with 100 moves moved to easy or hard, i want them removed or fixed.

AK 13 years ago

@Jynx: Actually, I've had that thought since I joined almost 2 years ago. Problem is, some levels with tons of moves are so easy you know what every move is, while some small levels with only 3 moves is so hard, it takes you 30 tries to get. Quantity of the moves is not always an indicator of the difficulty. I agree with your reasoning, in fact I wanted any kids level with more than 20 moves to be moved to easy, but still, the fact remains that even with a lot of moves, sometimes it's still kids, or easy, or whatever.

hi everyone

SB, Welcome to the game! Or even a different planet! :P
You must experiment thoroughly with levels on this game - complete some officials, then create your own! Find the best route you can then upload it! So you can get a low score on your level! Now just put that in to practice on the officials! :)

Again, Welcome to BB, I'm Manufan call me that or Manu, and be sure to check out some of my levels and other people's!

SimonM 13 years ago

Well, SB, people have a very low score, because people play this game for a long time. Or just had luck with that particulary level.
Please enjoy blockoban, also try to make levels!

How shuld we call you SBLMNL? Is SB ok for you? You can call me OMR as other people do.

SBLMNL 13 years ago

I found/started playing this game about a year ago.

Hello Blockobaneers i'm semi new to the world of Blockoban but i still can't work out how some of u guys/girls get such low scores. I try my absolute hardest to find the shortest route but just can't do it, i feel like i'm missing something lol

Some help/guidance would be great =]]]

Jyxz 13 years ago

Man I remember when Pauloalex used to yell at me for spamming and while I do leave a lot of comments, 870 since I started playing, Chris you have almost 7000. Gulp.

chris3000 13 years ago

Camodragoon has contributed to this game a lot. I learned a lot of tricks the past months. That's why i've solved over 3650.

Jyxz 13 years ago

I just had an interesting thought... I wonder if I am being elitist or if its a good idea. What if we as a community had a rule as follows:

Easy levels must be able to be solved in under 36 moves, and medium levels 72 moves. The purpose being that an if a level is easy there really aren't more then 10 or so moves where you are actually thinking... so there should be a limit to the tediousness.

@Comi03: Welcome to blockoban.

oldmanrob 13 years ago

Great! That way it works. Thank you guys. :)

@oldmanrob It is really hard or even impossible to slide the cursor to page two. But if you click to the right of it it will step one page at a time. Done

Ferrari12 13 years ago

You don't have to drag the page selector, if you click to the right/left of it, it will automatically move on page to the right/left :)

oldmanrob 13 years ago

Maybe it's just me or my mouse but i can't move to page 2 at newly commented levels. The space i have to move is too slight. :(

manufan 13 years ago

Hey Guys! Sorry about not making some levels recently... I have just started Secondary School and times are getting a tiny bit tougher...

oldmtnguy 13 years ago

Congratulations. You have submitted some great designs lately.
Signed OMG [yes, the admin]

Jos 13 years ago

OMG (no, not the admin)! I'm second in the designer list!

Jyxz 13 years ago

@oldmanrob, im hot on your tail! I think i hit 4000 same day as you.

CamoDragoon 13 years ago

@GIS I meant how there were comments saying some people "whined at him", etc.

gameinsky 13 years ago

OMG is an admin, it's his job to get inbetween fights and to solve them.

CamoDragoon 13 years ago

Lol character cap xP

SPOILER

Anyways, I don't see how OMG got caught up in this discussion. From what I saw, nobody was attacking him in the first place, and he has the same right to an opinion as any other player....

4. @OMR: COngratulations :D

5. WB Paulo? Idk if I'm too late,

6. @Rating I try to gauge how hard the level would be to a normal person and if I'm conflicted I go for the higher difficulty. If it needs to be easier I edit.

[cclass=ridiculous amount of comments]Blockoban[class]

I've just returned after a week and a half and seen the big controversy around Obscurity, and I guess it's time I put my two cents in the machine. :P

SPOILER

1. About negative criticism: I really like to see comments, negative or not. Especially if you rate a level 3 or lower, you darn well better post about why you did so or it's just a diss on the creator. From my experience levels are a hit-or-miss of sorts; some of my best levels IMO such as Thin Transfer (BLockoban) which I really enjoyed solving when I made it, are rated less than my other levels. I almost ALWAYS try to give an opinion to the designer, as it boosts morale and helps show them what is a "good" level and what is not. I also think that if you're going to give negative criticism, do it lightly. I usually try to talk as if I'm the person's best friend; if I'm going to say something bad about their level, don't just blatantly say the level is terrible, try to soften it some and most importantly offer suggestions. I actually like it when I get negative criticism sometimes as it gives an insight to how my levels are accepted by the community.

2. The thing about ages: I don't know if some critical message was removed or what, but I honestly don't understand it. If the younger players are showing maturity, I don't see why youth is any problem; if not, then fine, but like I always have said just ridiculing them doesn't fix anything; telling them what they're doing wrong, advising them, is what should be done.
Idk if It seems like I'm trying to be too mature...... :P

3. Those "optimization" levels: I don't play them, I don't rate them. Period. If I don't feel comfortable with a particular level, such as one of murat's really difficult ones like Traffic Lights (BLockoban), or an optimization-oriented (or often art levels like lmr's), I won't bother solving it, and I feel that it's then not fair for me to rate those levels. Maybe give an opinion, but not to rate.

lmr 13 years ago

I'm not complaining. Just trying to answer the question asked.

oldmanrob 13 years ago

Imo we should stop complaining about the category chosen by the creator. With one ecception, if a lavel labled "kids" seams too hard for kids we shluld ask the creator if he/she is sure about his/hers chose.

lmr 13 years ago

Jyxz, I catorgize my levels based on how I perceive it compared to other similar levels. A large part is also based on the type of level. To me anything that I create that resembles the type of level I have trouble solving gets a higher difficulty. The ones that are the same old same old get an easier designation.
So, all that said, deciding the difficultly of a level you have created is based on your perception of that type of level, the comparison to similar levels created by others, and how you have improved the style.
Set a difficulty to how it feels best to you. If nothing else others will tell you their opinion and you can judge from there.
