Author Topic: Blocktionary - Near Release!  (Read 3769 times)

Blocktionary is a small gamemode I created today that is essentially Pictionary. If you have never played, basically one person is trying to build something and others are trying to guess it. Super simple. You can play it on my dedi server right now if you like.

Near release, once I'm sure all bugs are out I will.

People constantly random guess as of now. One second after I had started and all I had built was a few 1x1's and someone had already guessed me out. I think it would be nice if we could choose the word.

0/18 You sure this is fun? I thought it would be swarming by now but I guess not.

it was earlier and yesterday


Sounds cool. Seems like a good idea for Blockland.

i think a better name is 'Bricktionary' though.....

the guessing system is totally bad

(some, not all) people are just making a list of possible choices and just saying them out loud the second guessing is open. some games it comes down to just who can paste their chat first the second guessing opens up

also, there's no troll filter that stops people from making loops of explosions or stuff (which is a nice relief after all those spam guessers but in the long run probably shouldn't be condoned)

a fix would make it so that when someone guesses they have to wait 30 seconds before they can guess again, and also prevent people from listing out a whole ton of answers in one chat message.

implementing this now

also changed system so you can basically have any hint now or section

edit : removing hints totally

also as a required add-on in the gamemode, Server_AFKKicker by greek2me because people have problems

How about a points system? Where if you get the right guess, you get points which you can use to buy useless stuff.

And then you get a choice of three words. Each word has a difficulty like:
Easy: dog 1 pt
Medium: gas station 2pt
Hard: rapture 3pt

but then again, what could we do with the points?


edit: also how do we stop them trolls
solution: make me admin

SOME GUY NAMED VOLVO IS TROLLING US IN THE SERVER SO I HAD TO LEAVE AND COMPLAIN HERE! I think it would be nice to ADD A FEATURE WHERE WE EJECT THE BUILDER! How he trolled is simply build something saying "LOL forgetERZ" and he kept saying "trololololololol" and move like a fat guy.

Ehhm, anyways if the eject feature is not added by tommorow I will give the server a rating of 1%.


thanks for stealing my idea :(

once this gets finished my mod will be stuff :(
