Steemgar Games Now Plays Every 30 Minutes

Starting now, @igster will be running 2 games every hour, allowing more play, more winners and more rewards! I will keep the steemauto functioning to support the top 3 winners of every games.

I May Have Missed a Few Votes

I had something setup within my steemauto to stop voting once I reached a threshold of 70% in voting power. Which mean that I may have missed a vote here and there. I'm very sorry for this event. Feel free to leave the games that I may have missed in the comment below and I'll try to get a moment to upvote the missing winners.

Open Sourcing Very Probable In The Near Future

@igster told me his intention to bring Steemgar into an open source status. I would like to let any developer interested know that I will be upvoting generously the pull request made via Utopian to his repo once it is open source.

Conclusion

You no longer have to wait 50 minutes between games. If everything goes well, who knows...maybe people will be able to play back to back, every 10 minutes soon!

It would be great if it was possible to play back to back... I have missed a lot of games because when I check it the game already started

I hope this is the beginning of a new trend with games leveraging the steem blockchain to reward players.

Cheers to all!

That's the goal :-)

can u upvote these games before the new ones as there is less time. in one of the above a games i finished 1st and didnt get the reward whereas 2nd and 3rd got their reward, that is unusual

Need to give him time to restore his VP, also he's probably a very busy person so maybe we should organize our posts so that we aren't constantly creating new comment threads that he has to go through.

Nice. I tried multiple times to play, but would always get in too late or too early, and didn't want to wait 40 minutes to play. So I've only played on agar.io but have been wanting to play on here. So hopefully now I'll be able to get some playtime in!

@cryptoctopus,
Every 10 mins there's a game! That's a good news and today I will try to join it!

Cheers~

Thanks for the update @cryptoctopus, twice the games also means twice the stats :) Really appreciate everything you have been doing for the game, the community that has been building around it has been great, especially those on the discord channel.

While I'm at it, I did have a couple games:

This one https://steemit.com/steemgar/@steemplayroom/steemgar-game-1520531607661#@crispycoinboys/crispycoinboys1520532416680 and this one https://steemit.com/steemgar/@steemplayroom/steemgar-game-1520355210039#@crispycoinboys/crispycoinboys1520356024067

its very cool.I haven't tried this before.hope it will be great to spend my free time

The new update is cool.. Since I registered I haven't been able to play because I always miss the time.. Will make time to play today.

Wow, this is a good news. Now that steemgar games now plays every 30 minutes, I hope I will be able to win soon. I've played the game a couple of times but I've not been lucky to win any.

Also I will not have to wait for an hour anymore as I've missed some game being carried away in the course of waiting.

Kudos to @igster for this improvement and I want to say a very big thank you to @cryptoctopus for this update and for the support

reduction of time that's a great thing to be done, otherwise users had to wait for hours, i got stuck at some levels, good work keep up...

This one seems a good game to play and to kill some time while waiting for payouts. Keep it up @cryptoctopus!

In general video games can really bring blockchain technology forward if they find adoption.
Steemgar is a lovely project with a competitive aspect which brings a lot of fun and yes sometimes frustration :), but one is for sure you want to try it again and again.
If there is still an option for a game which didnt get upvoted yet I feel free and leave it here.

kind regards, @tzap90

i have played this game for many time and your doing a great supporting for them and i never won i play it for 2 3 times daily its really fun but i want to win ehh

I don't know about the game but the pattern seems interesting

Great features there for Steemgar. Games holding every 30 minutes is just cool. No more long waits thanks for sharing keep it up

Thats an amazing news for me who love to play @steemagar and had to wait 1hrs to play another game...By when it will be done most probably? @cryptoctopus

its already happening...game every 30 mins...follow @steemplayroom

Thanks...but what about every 10mins?

the game starts 6m 30s after announcement...and the game runs for 7 mins...so having more than 2 games in a hour is kinda overkill

I can't seem to win..
I suck
Though I still enjoy it

ye kyo ho

Game

A good initiative, the wating time was very long now it has been reduced to much extend, nice work, keep posting such stuff, thank you

As for open-sourcing, the game appears to be based off of this GitHub repo, which is open-source.

That is really great ....i thought that waiting for so much was tough to resist ...this is really great thing @igster had thought about.....
Looking up to the update .....guess the bugs would be fixed now....lovely....thanks for making us play the game and giving us more oppertunities to win....thanks @cyptoctopus ....

It would be very, very cool to have extremely frequent, if not nearly-continuous games running, or even so many that they run in parallel! Thanks a bunch of bundles for doing this for us players!

Although, my own struggles of attempting to play on my flimsy hardware got me to thinking, is this yet another case of those with an existing capital base or technological edge getting ahead incrementally?

Not to take away from the skill and strategy and reaction times required to secure a win, but I feel like there's a pretty evident pattern of those with access to better internet connections and hardware being able to secure decently frequent victories.

I think it would be cool if us players could eventually set up a fund to help level the playing field by getting gaming (and productivity) ready equipment in the hands of steemarites who might not be able to afford to save up for such tech on their own so easily as those of us from wealthier nations. Anyone down for such a venture?

Oh, and because you asked... I guess there were a few games with some non-votes, thanks again!

Yeah that great stride.. Need not to wait more.. Looking forward to this...

30 minutes span will give more people an opportunity to win. Now I'm confused that you are really bent at helping us A SteemAgar's fans. Dear @vryptoctopud, God will bless you more than you can comprehend

Hey I appreciate all the work you and Igster do here.

On a side note: I won this match 2 days ago and was the only one not to receive an upvote from you:
https://steemit.com/steemgar/@steemplayroom/steemgar-game-1520733207662#@tehshizno/tehshizno1520734023344

I can’t seem to get on at the right time , and it’s quiet sad because I really wanna ply this game , I have been hearing a lot about it !!

I was super excited when I got the news today. Now that the games are so frequent, it seems like a lot of player take bigger risks, which makes for way more exciting games.

@cryptoctopus - Sir I tried to play the game, but it said they have no game at that time & I want to wait till their next announcement... :( Therefore, if they can run lot of games continuously we all can enjoy well, but Sir your vote power will drain then...

+W+

It really is wonderful to see the advancement of a development on here.

This is what STEEM needs, development. Here is an actual real world game that @Igster created which is very popular.

Gaming is a huge industry and someone developing something like this adds to the things people can do on here. Not everyone is into blogging.

Like any ecosystem, the goal is to have people spend more time on here...make it their digital destination of choice.

Excellent, i will try, is to hard to win?
