Don't tell other Blocklanders about it.

One person is all that we need.

Does anybody know when will be the next wave of Greenlit games?

Valve doesn't tell us until they're actually greenlit.
I'd say somewhere in middle August tho.

its really annoying and makes us look desperate.

Exactly why I'm not telling you guys who I asked to play this.

They do announce dates, but as far as I know, one hasn't been at this point.

One thing thats hard to get over about Blockland compared to other games that got Greenlit is that Blockland gets a lot of attention! Positive or negative a lot of attention comes our way.

Blockland
-Fully Functional
-Fairly decently sized forums full of add-ons, media, help, general discussions and suggestions and requests
-Over 100 Discussions
-Over 3,400 Comments
-Nearly (if not more, Im not sure) 50,000 keys already sold
-Not yet featured on Yogscast
-Not Greenlit

BROFORCE
-Still in development (only local co-op as of now)
-Over 50 Discussions
-Over 50 Comments
-Featured on Yogscast
-Greenlit

Its quite interesting to see that a very successful original sandbox brickbuilding supercreative game doesnt get greenlit but a platforming game that is still in development get greenlit.

Maybe Yogscast will make all the difference?

How long was Broforce on Greenlight compared to Blockland? That also makes a difference.

We've been on greenlight for 10 (nearly 11) months
I don't believe that it was on for that long.

I wish that I could vote for Blockland on Steam.
I have an account, but for reason, it keeps claiming that my account does have that ability because I haven't bought any games on Steam, even though that's no where near true.

What do you guys think about making an "ultimate" Blockland discussion thread.

It would explain a lot of stuff to help stop repeating topics
Like:

Go to the forums for game help
Game History
Gameplay
How its not a minecraft clone
How the maps are not coming back
How there are a few users purposely trying to ruin our reputation because they did something stupid and got banned
Info about our forums

and any other subjects. Maybe doing some Q+A in the thread to cover anything we missed?

Most of these are explained in the Greenlight page.

and no one would dare read that.

Clearly people are either not reading or not understanding that or are going right to discussion to either complain or whine or complain

I think it would be helpful to have a megathread in discussion but that my opinion
