Topic: Embedded Battle Replay

As a splinterlands player, I would like to be able to share a battle link in a monsters.tokenbb.io topic, so that the battle would play right in the topic.

For example, if I paste this link:

It'd be cool if just doing that would automatically embedded a battle replay.

That is a great suggestion!

TokenBB is open source and I would be happy to pay a dev who wants to undertake adding this feature to our markdown renderer.

I am not sure if @yabapmatt allows embedding the replay view somewhere else, but that might be something they want to provide :)

Please keep suggesting cool features like this!

Awesome idea, I didn't even think that is possible but the data is all public, so it makes sense. Would that require to get some code from Steem Monsters, to animate the cards they way they do? Or would that be something entirely new, interpreted in a different way? I guess the second solution would be way more effort to implement. Is Steem Monsters partly open source?

Topic: Shout Box/Chat Box

Some of the most active forums I been on has had what is known as a shout box displayed at the top or bottom of their forum.

It can be used as an easy way to send a mass message to all members / used to mention things that don't need a topic dedicated to it or even used to announce important updates.

So if I understand this correctly this would be a way for the forum owners to send messages to all users? Or more like a global chat? I have seen both being called a shoutbox in forums.

Some form of announcements are a great idea in my opinion. And I am sure a chat would also be possible :D

We should just think what users would like to see, so I am hoping for more ideas.

rentmoney (68) · 5 years ago

What do you think of a global shoutbox/chat that is implemented as steem comments? One could even have a small 1% :black_heart: button next to each shout :thinking:

Announcement global pinning is a great idea, I will note that down.

If a chat box is implemented and on chain then it could eat up allot of RC. Which could he a huge hinderance to new players / players lacking RC. It might be best to have a chat box that isn't connect to STEEM comments. If it must be connected then I would 100% go with a shout box over a chat box.

Topic: Suggestion for us dumbasses...

How hard would it be to make the posts/messages SAVE AS DRAFTS within the browser?

I believe Steemit does this.

I totally spent an hour making a super, amazing, fanatastic Intro post only to navigate away a few minutes to create a gif to put at the end, and come back to NOTHING.

My heart sank.
After only a few minutes of not being on the page, it went to sleep and reloaded when I returned, with nothing. Nothing! 😱

You'll now never know all the amazing things I felt like sharing, as that time has now past.

I understand if this is simply user error and you can't hold my hand all day long. I just got used to that option and now will have to unlearn it at the expense of (again) AMAZING content... but maybe that will make me learn faster.

I will leave you with this.

Bummer, I hope my 100% upvote cheers you up a bit.

Did you open a new window or tab when creating the gif or did you leave the forum topic you were creating ?

I would suggest creating your post in wordpad or something similiar and then copy paste it here when finished.

Great suggestion for the draft to be included, fingers crossed that it gets implemented.

carrieallen (66) · 5 years ago (edited)

@reggaemuffin

It's no worries. I chalk it up to being my own fault.

I totally use Hackmd for others to share their posts with me, as I'm kinda like an editor and the BOSS at Markdown.😎 And I help run the HELPIE Witness, so Hackmd makes it easy for me to get things to post for others. Same with SM (Splinterlands). When I do the OFFICIAL LORE posts I use the Hackmd. However, I do wish it showed all the images... I never does, but it does transfer to the blockchain perfect. 😎 (And now I'm just babbling...)

I also was already using it (while making the lost post) to grab image links easier as like 30% of the time the interal upload thingy didn't work.
Amusing (to me) that I didn't think about putting the POST into a hack. 😏

I'll probably get around to making another intro post... I mean, I'm pretty famous and clearly you don't know of me... yet. 😎 Gotta fix that shit.

Thanks for putting it on the list though! (I think we all just got used to it when Steemit did it... TBF: SteemPeak doesn't. You have to actually hit SAVE. So I can be retrained.)😍

carrieallen (66) · 5 years ago

That upvote DOES cheer me up. I'm a simple creature. 😉

I had another tab open. It normally lets me navigate around... but more than a few minutes (not sure the exact time) and it went to sleep. That may be a setting I can fix...

I totally went back to hackmd (I used it before) to create posts here... if they will be substantial.

Thank you for responding! And for all the things! 😍

Topic: One method to Easily Solve the language issue

I love that users from multiple languages are here... but like many other users have written it does make it very difficult to use the forum when all languages are in one place making it somewhat of a mess.

The easiest and perhaps best answer is in adding a language tag to each post (in metadata)... and to facilitate that perhaps a setting per user so the tag is always that language.

Then filter by the language you have selected as well.

$4.26

Reply to One method to Easily Solve the language issue

jarvie (70) · 5 years ago

Yeah i don't see a problem with any of that really. They can choose per comment... a default just means what their defaulted choice would be to save them time and effort and make it easy.
And why would someone mark it as wrong language? If it doesn't have words then why mark it as a langauge at all?... select none. These are strawmen problems that aren't really problems at all in my opinion.
And when someone is viewing why force them into one language... couldn't you just say ALL? It's just a simple filter.

The alternative is to have a completely Korean forum because that's what General almost is right now.

Maybe there's more of a deeper issue that you haven't expressed?

p.s. how come my images don't work in the original post?

How would one handle a topic with multiple languages?

When you post in an english topic, should it lock all responses to english?

If someone quotes a spanish comment and answers in english, how do you deal with that? Do you hide parts of the conversation?

A default is a good idea, that could save users time. But what if someone uses the default english tag but writes in korean?

These are all questions that sound like strawmans but in an implementation you have to find solutions to them. And a solution can be "we don't care about that". But I want to make conscious choices on all these details before I plan an implementation.

My biggest worry with this approach would be making it simple enough for the user. WHat if someone speaks multiple languages? Do they have to select a fitting language for each comment they write? And what if the interface hides important information (say images) because someone accidentally marked it as the wrong language?

I think the idea sounds good in theory but would need to be fleshed out for it to work in reality.

I think it would be better to have the main forum English and then have a section dedicated to other languages.

Layout would be:

Fair points. I didn't really consider multiple languages on the same topic so i didn't see it as an issue.

Because... Langauge just on posts... which i'm guessing you guys call forum threads?

Aka don't even have a tag for comments. Generally speaking people that write a post in a language are expecting that same langauge as a response. To account for violations of that practice I don't think is your need to work on. That handles 1,2,3,5

As for paragraph 4 ... why would you need to handle when someone does this? I guess the answer is... allow them to change the language tag.

Much of this stuff you kind of just have to let the community handle... "Hey i noticed you wrote a post in Chinese however you tagged it English... here's how you change it. Thanks."

So coming back to this @aggroed and @yabapmatt and team could use this same technique to help with languages on the condensor running splintertalk.io

Topic: Are there any plans to patch the cards?

Some cards are not used too much, and some cards are used too often.

Of course, cards that are not often used now can be made with DEC.

However, even if the card's scarcity increases, the card's abilities remain the same.

In terms of price, there will be fluctuation.
However, it is a card that is still not used in the game.

Regular patches are required to use a variety of different cards.

yabapmatt (69) · 5 years ago

Pretty much every card game like Splinterlands has cards that just don't get used much, or even at all. Due to the varying rulesets in Splinterlands I feel that almost all the cards do get some level of play though.

We try to avoid changing the stats/abilities on cards if at all possible but we will do it if we really feel that certain cards are really causing the game to not be fun.

New cards are too overpowered to me. You can say I can buy cards from the market or the orbs. But I have my own budget constraint, so all I can do is just sit down and watch my monsters slaughtered by those who have superior cards.

I understand it is hard to do balancing, for the cards are related to market. If you nerf a card, it's price will go down and vice versa.

But if you want more noobs to join in the game, you should consider regular balancing. Every successful games has its balancing schedule. It will cause many disputes, but also create vitality to the community.

There seems to be a few cards that are close to an instant-win. I would count the new summoner Prince Rennyn to this group. It is incredibly hard to win against him, in some game styles it is nearly impossible. On the top levels he is played constantly.

However, I do believe that this will be balanced with more cards, who can counter his +2 life and +1 range. Afterall, when the Beta is over, we will get a set with entirely new cards, which will throw off any balancing we can make right now.

When we use a dragon summoners, then we have to choose an element, well if you have a water splinter quest and you chose the water element with the summoners dragon, if you win the fight, the quest should count it, right?

If there WERE Dragon quests, I'm guessing it would need to involve like 15 Wins instead of just 5.

Yes, Yes and Yes! @kevinli, I have thought about this so often and I fully agree. Dragon has become a splinter that has many different cards to even play by its own but always has one of the other splinter extra. So it should be no problem to make that happen. I assume, in the beginning the Dragon splinter had not enough cards yet and was made entirely out of legendary cards to make sense as a daily quest. This has changed now and we can move on.

I agree it's slow opening them one by one, waiting for the animation each time, but I think this is because they changed the design so that a transaction needs to be submitted to the blockchain to generate each pack when it's opened, rather than pre-generating them as used to be the case.

Yeah i shudder at the thought of having to open 500 packs if someone were to buy them. It's fine that it takes 6 seconds to check for the block... but opening multiple packs couldn't they just submit a whole bunch to the blockchain at once? Or just say... "we are automating the process for you check back later" Then give you a screen that let's you flip over the hundreds of cards?

Topic: Disable just the music sounds

There's a setting for "disable all sounds" but I do like hearing some of the sounds that indicate a match is starting or things like that. I end up having to refresh pages a lot, though, and then even if I've muted the song, it starts playing again. Nothing against the song, but I don't really ever want to hear it while I'm playing, and it would be cool to just permanently disable it.

We meet same person in game many times but do know how many times I won/lost against him/her and how many times we played in total. It will be nice to have such stats when we search enemy and find a opponent. The stats can be shown before we start making team and I think it will create more excitment when we see someone always beating me :)

Topic: Can't Send Cards into Battle Using a Screen Reader

I'm a visually impaired player, and depend on screen reader software to use the computer. I really wish the website would get more accessibility improvements. I have always had a hard time to select my cards to send into battles, because the cards selection screen isn't friendly to screen readers and keyboard interactions. Until January of this year, I was able to select cards, though I had a lot of trouble with the interface as well. I was away for a few months for real life reasons, and when I came back, I found that I can't even select cards anymore. I'm not sure what has changed....

What happens now is that the screen reader reports the cards as being button objects, but I can't navigate through the cards from the keyboard using "Tab" or "Shift" + "Tab" (focus doesn't stop on the cards), and can't activate them using the "Enter" or the "Spacebar" keys like with normal button objects. I also tried the screen reader's command to show a list of button objects on the page and simulate a button press from there, but even them the cards don't activate. The result is that the countdown runs out while I'm unable to select any card, and I end up kicked out of the battle...

I only have the Orca screen reader for Linux and can't test whether the same also happens with other screen readers.

Hi, @nextgen622,

At the time I had Windows, I didn't have Jaws - I used NVDA. But I don't have Windows anymore, and can't test NVDA with the site.

A few months back when I was somewhat able to play Steem Monsters, it was very clunky here on Linux too. I had to use a keyboard shortcut to have a review cursor focus on the card's name and then use another keyboard shortcut to simulate a mouse click on the card. This didn't always work, but when it did, I could play the matches. Now I don't seem to be able to make this method work anymore.

I hadn't considered trying it on the phone (my phone is Android). I'm guessing that locating and tapping on the cards on mobile might be easier since we have to navigate the screen with our fingers, and don't need to depend on whether the element is programmed to be focusable with shortcuts. As long as the screen reader can read the card's name, we can probably tap on it. I'd prefer to play the game normally on PC, though.

PS: you're the one who pointed out the accessibility problems the SM team has fixed, right? What problems were these?

nextgen622 (71) · 5 years ago

Hi Aiyumi, unfortunately I'm not familiar with Linux. But I do have NVDA and it works with that. On Linux, are you able to navigate a webpage by buttons via a shortcut key? If so, selecting a card for battle should just be navigating to the card button and pressing Enter. Not sure why you're not able to activate the button by pressing Enter. I know sometimes I have needed to press Enter twice. I actually suggested this change to Matt, as I found the image based cards much more difficult to select in the past, as navigating through images was a lot more time-consuming and I would often get timed out.

In terms of the accessibility improvements, since the update of the card market a couple of months ago, there was no way of selecting a card on the Card page of Steem Monsters as the check box wasn't detectable with a screen reader. @yabapmatt fixed that with this release. Also, with one of the recent updates, it made the button to Open and Transfer packs undetectable with a screen reader. But now this has been fixed.

If you have any suggestions, happy to chat more about it.

My screen reader properly activates buttons with "Enter" when they're standard "button" HTML elements, but it doesn't have much luck with the "custom nonstandard objects + onclick" stuff. From what I remember, NVDA seemed to fare a bit better at detecting and dealing with these "clickable" objects.

$0.00

aiyumi (59) · 5 years ago

More ideas. I think NVDA activates clickable objects (custom elements with the "onclick" attribute) with Enter even if the object isn't programmed to respond to the Enter key. This may be the reason pressing Enter works for you but not for me (I don't know about Jaws, but maybe it also does that). From what I noticed, Orca (the screen reader for Linux) doesn't seem to activate clickable objects with Enter, just with the keyboard shortcut that simulates a mouse click.

I did a little test. I went to my cards collection page and used Firefox's HTML inspector to make some temporary changes and play around with the page's HTML. I added 'tabindex="0"' to one of the card "buttons," and this made it possible to focus on the card using the keyboard, but Enter still didn't activate it. This makes me think that the "pressing Enter to activate cards" suggestion actually isn't implemented yet, but it works for you because your screen reader "clicks" with Enter :P .

nextgen622 (71) · 5 years ago

O that’s interesting. I’m not sure about exactly how it works. If you got any suggestions on how it could be made to work with your screen reader, @yabapmatt might be able to do something about it if it’s not too difficult. Best thing would be to discuss this in Discord.

$0.00

aiyumi (59) · 5 years ago

Nearly one year ago, I wrote a post talking about these clickable object problems and how to fix them. The problem should actually be very easy to fix. It should be a matter of adding 'tabindex="0"' to the cards so that "Tab" and "Shift" + "Tab" can focus on them, and adding some Javascript so that the fake buttons respond to "Enter" (keycode 13) and the spacebar (keycode 32) like normal buttons do.

Topic: Delwynn Dragonscale - NEW Dragon Summoner with +1 Magic Attack - Too Expensive with 5 Mana?

Delwin Dragonscale: +1 Magic / 5 Mana

Today we have gotten the new SEED Germinator promo cards for the Dragon splinter. Among them was Delwynn Dragonscale, a common summoner with +1 Magic attack. That is really cool, because it brings a mana-buff to all other splinters, as Dragon is always playing with one of the other five splinters.

Mana Costs Too High?

However, right at the announcement already, the high mana costs of 5 Mana jumped right our attention. This is on par with the legendary summoners from the Beta edition, in terms of mana costs, who all come with +3 different stats. I doubt that Delwyn will be as powerful as the other 5 mana summoners.

The Splinterlands team justified the high costs with the power of Magic attack, which avoids shields entirely. It makes it more valuable than the +1 Melee Attack from Malric Inferno. The Dragon summoners are more expensive, which seems odd, considering the fact that Selenia Sky costs 3 mana with her +1 Range attack, equaling all other rare sommoners so far with their +/- 1 buff/debuff. Daria Dragonscale already costs 4 Mana for +1 Melee attack, although I would value Melee and Range attack equal, regarding the powerful range attacks in the game (as we can all see with the super dominant cards Prince Rennyn and Selenia Sky both giving +1 Range attack).

Delwyn is now even one mana higher than Daria, following the previous unbalance of buff values for Dragon summoners. And finally, the mystery card, Archmage Arius, has three debuffs (+1 Melee, Range and Magic) and costs only one mana more than Delwyn, although much stronger.

Let's Test The Dragon Summoners

It is a little bit early to shout nerf, but we should open the discussion about that. I invite everyone to test this new card on the battlefield and add your opinion here.

Personally, I think that the entire Dragon splinter needs a summoner cost redesign. Either Selenia is too cheap, or Daria and Delwyn are too expensive. I tend to think that Daria and Delwyn are too expensive but this is something the community needs to test and voice their opinions.

rentmoney (68) · 5 years ago (edited)

I think its important to note that the new dragon promo summoner is a Common card so it can't be as good as a rare summoner.

The current rare dragon summoner cost 4 Mana and has one buff. It makes sense to me that the common summoner would cost 5 Mana with a buff. If the mana was to go any lower then the buff would need to be removed as to keep the order of things in place (common< Rare < Epic < Legendary)

Reply to Delwynn Dragonscale - NEW Dragon Summoner with +1 Magic Attack - Too Expensive with 5 Mana?

flauwy (73) · 5 years ago

I agree with all your points. A common summoner has by definition a lower value and/or usability. Maybe that is indeed reason enough to keep it at its 5 mana costs. Because that would equally enable the game to bring out much more powerful summoner for even less mana, on the epic or even legendary level.

The prices haven't stabilized yet but at the moment, Delwyn costs twice as much as Daria Dragonscale, another Dragon summoner but with epic rarity. Delwyn should drop in value over the next time, to truely fulfill its role as a cheap entry summoner for the Dragon splinter, way below the price of the epic Daria. There are plenty on the market now to support that theory. We will see.

It is certainly a powerful card and is offering tons of new combination possibilites. Maybe 5 mana is justified afterall. ;)

jacekw (64) · 5 years ago

For me Delwynn should cost 4 mana, just like Daria. Delwnynn gives +1 magic for each color, and Daria +1 attack for each color. So, should Selenia also cost 4 mana? In my opinion, from the point of view of the game, it's better as it costs 3 points, because if it cost 4 it would be weak compared to Prince.

Another thing is that Delwynn, costing 5 mana points, seems to be a weak solution considering the legendary summoners for 5 mana or Archius Arius for 6 mana.

I do get this point and I think it is a problem to argue that way because it kind of ignores the usability of a card. From a gaming perspective are 5 mana a lot and equal to the costs of the ~~supreme deities~~ legendary summoners. Is this really justified? It makes Delwyn look pale and small next to them. Putting the rarity aspect into a summoners usefulness makes Delwyn potentially a card little used by the players, as it is the only common summoner card. I might be wrong, we have to test that.

Currently the price is jumping between 0.09 - 0.14 for the non gold version (Daria is currently 0.40) and I think its likely we may see it go lower. The gold version is only $3.00 (I think its a steal at $3 price and am a little shocked it dropped that low so fast).

I have played a few times with Delwyn Dragonscale and had a lot of fun. It really enables a whole new field of possibilites to create powerful teams. I didn't feel like I was missing out on Mana points, regarding the strength I got. Still a lot of testing to do but I think Delwyn will find its place in top level teams.

Maybe it is time for me to admit that I cried for nerf to early. All-in-all a great card and I am happy to have it maxxed.

I think a lot of this pricing is because currently there is a huge FOMO going on and not many cards are yet redeemend or on the market. I for example will wait before the price is more stable before I do anything with my remaining cards.

Do you mean FOMO for not being able to sell the cards and hence dumping them for cheap on the market?

Topic: Holiday Skins and a special card

YES!! I am a gamer since I was small and I am currently 17 years old, and something that would be very good to launch small events and give more uses on the way to our beloved DEC.

I played a lot of league of legends and you know that it is a completely free videogame that was raised economically thanks to the evolution of its economic system based on selling in-game products without affect the gameplay.

For example, take out a set of skins for valentines, Christmas, or any other day that is a worldwide celebration. Add animations to the cards, or new and better sounds, special interactions if they wear the skins.

you can also launch an event every time there is a festive day, in the form of a calendar giving little incentives for each day followed that you connect up to give a exclusive edition card for that event, say at Christmas a monster dressed as Santat Claus, that cant be earned or bought in another way.

I have many more ideas of this type that will go up, I hope you like it

Topic: Upgrade Cards While Delegated

Most that play SteemMonsters/SplinterLands know there is a cooldown feature on recently played & transfered cards. This is great for helping combat abuse in game play but also has some negative side affects. For example, I delegate out multiple accounts to players via giving them the posting key and delegating them monsters to play with. Currently if I want to upgrade one of those cards for the person playing with it I need to undelegate > upgrade > send back (This puts the card in cooldown). I think it would be nice for us to have the ability to upgrade cards while they are delegated out.

What does everyone else think ?

Would you like to see such a feature added ?

Topic: Make All Six Available Splinters Part of the Quest?

The following pulled from a steemit post I most recently wrote:

The Quest becomes a daily challenge onto itself, you play one other opponent at a time in a best of seven series (or even five with the same parameters). Yes, I said series, and I said up to as many as seven matches consecutively. This could possibly help in loading times for the matches in not needing to find an opponent, and it makes the series an in game match in itself. The reason for seven is simple-- Six splinters (including Dragon) and one "Wildcard Option" should there be a dramatic seventh match needed to break the tie at three.

Also in the quest option (my apologies for getting a little authoritarian on my recommendation but I like to have the entire reason and thought completed when going through creative exercises) should have three pools of players: Those that have not yet played/or have lost their first quest, those that have won all of their quests so far, and those that have lost two quest series' and are done with quest play for the day.

This may sound harsh and radical, but hear me out. The battle format would allow the player to have the option to play a daily quest in a checklist format of playing up to, possibly all six available splinters, once each time in each series with the exception of being able to use the wildcard option in game seven. So the leaning on of the same lineup could only happen up two times during the match, versus 100% of the daily quest which happens now. It also levels the playing field for those that actually care about completing their daily quest for not having to wait twenty or more matches to have their splinter line up with the meta lineup for that particular splinter. Plus as the match unfolds much more of the element of gamesmanship with each splinter counting down it would actually turn into a chess match so to speak as the game comes down to the wire.

Many of the same options of course could be included, I would go as far to say virtually of them such as the bonuses for cards, awarding winning streaks, ratings methods, and so on. But it also gets rid of the elephant in the room that encourages bot abuse, although it's not as rampant in appearances as it once was in that to place highly it has a lot more to do with the amount of matches played versus the frequency of winning. Yes, of course you have to win a decent amount of time to rank highly in the season play. This way to continue on in ranked play for the daily quest you get to take on all comers in a "Survival Pool" type of ongoing play format that is if you are fortunate enough to keep winning, the competition is getting fierce without question in that respect.

One more thought, I am pretty sure I heard this originally from @davemccoy, so I need to give him the credit where it is due because I loved the idea. At the start of each season before each player plays, they have to declare which level they will be playing the entire season under. From then on, the rest of the season that player's account will only be playing their chosen level until the season's completion.

That is the same sentiment in having a player declare each person within the competitive ecosystem could declare which level novice, bronze, silver, gold, diamond, champion and be grouped and classified how they are doing in the season, or even ranked that way at the end of play. Each player would then have option of how they think they would fair with their own interest in mind, and can make their own decision accordingly.

Topic: Cut Healing/Magic Reflect/ReturnFire/Void/Shield While Stunned?

All of these abilities should somewhat be based on talent that is required to be animated while battle is going on, right? If you have an ability to reflect magic shouldn't that require you the ability to make an action on the battlefield? I know we could always go with "Well that monster is made out of teflon, or whatever so it doesn't matter," or whatever the reason. It just takes me back to a quote someone said about a poor fielding baseball player at third base (to paraphrase) "...the Cubs would've been better to pry up a piece of plywood at third base than have X player because their fielding is so poor." We all know it takes at least some, animate talent to do things, otherwise the game could be "Splinterlands Rock Monsters" where rocks of certain chemical composition can do things...watch as they sit there and blow each other up as a spark from an unidentified source was lit and these rocks starting reflecting it back and forth and blowing each other up. What do you know...another draw, lol. BTW I am not sure if this post is more sarcastic or nerdy and might be at the top of both things ever written or said in my life, and I love it.

Reply to Cut Healing/Magic Reflect/ReturnFire/Void/Shield While Stunned?

flauwy (73) · 5 years ago

Short answer: Stun makes a lot of sense to counter other abilities, that currently are passively still funcational. Cards like Lord Arianthus, which has become one of the most used tanks, could be much better countered with a stunner. It makes so much sense and would be a nice way to add some more rock/scissors/paper element to it. And since there are not so many stunners, it would not change the meta too drastically.

Topic: Win/Loss Rating for Each Match?

What if there were a formula that @yabapmatt or one of the other geniuses in programming, and/or in math (we know there are several here) to figure out a Victory Rating and Defeat Rating.

Maybe have it based on what you have left after a match is over. Say you won a match by RNG luck, when you both are down to the same attack & speed, that would rate in the middle. If you absolutely smoke someone who just was flat out unlucky or just guessed totally wrong in what you are doing (been on both sides of that one believe me) then based on what you have left standing, maybe their health ratings, and what they would improve to were there more infinite rounds-if they would heal or very soon die. A few moving parts I know, and of course I am not forgetting the low end of the rating-face it when you get blugeoned...brutally.

It would be kind of funny to see how low your relative battle rating would be, based on the damage or lack of damage you put on the enemy. Maybe someone like @tcpolymath could come with the tcpolymath devestation quotient, something crazy like that. I would surely have some very low ratings on this scale. This would be more for entertainment value of course could be pretty fun. This was inspired by a @tsnaks thread a little bit ago when talking about achievements.

Cool points, that would be interesting. Also I have thought it would be cool if your win was rated, or weighted based on your dominance. You squeek by, it's a lower rating, you guess just right and get a serious pummeling you would of course get a higher rating having most or all of your cards still alive with high health when the match is completed.

Agreed. I also think there should be a bigger premium on the summoner used for DEC. If you are playing an alpha gold summoner that thing is going to turn into a treasure when they are for the most part gone and rarely even for sale. Full disclosure I own all beta summoners, zero alpha summies (wish I did but the collection of course for me would be much smaller). SM could actually have a classification of base categories of all cards between common, rare, epic, legendary reform in the way of sub classifying cards as the following: common, common summoner, rare, rare summoner, epic, epic summoner, legendary, legendary summoner.

Hey Splinters,

So today I unfortunately just missed the check-in for the Peak Monsters tournament. And a few hours later literally missed another check-in due to internet problems. It's become an increasely annoying feature to have to check-in within 15 minutes of the tournament. Is there any reason why the player isn't automatically checked in when they enter the tournament?

If auto check-ins were approved, there would only be inactive players within the qualifier/1st round. There's probably something obvious that check-ins need to happen that I'm missing but I feel it would give more players a late chance to play the tournament!

Also, I want to vote with 50% mana because this board is not everything for me.
But I have to control the gauge every time.
How can I fix my vote weight as of 50% ?

Topic: Forum Management: Move Posts To Different Categories

In regular forums we have the option to move a post into different topics, categories or sub-forums. Since Token BB runs on the blockchain, I am not sure how far this is possible with the current code. But it would be great to be able to change that. For example: I posted Delwynn Dragonscale - NEW Dragon Summoner with +1 Magic Attack - Too Expensive with 5 Mana?
into the Suggestion Box. Now I realize, that it might have been better placed into Card Discussion.

I would love to have the option to edit my post and change the category. Additionally, opening up an entire new rabbit hole, a moderator (are there any moderating tools for Token BB already?) could do that instead of the author, cleaning up the mess that naturally comes together in a piblic forum.

Moving categories is possible and a planned feature. It will be one of the many moderation tools available :)

Good idea @flauwy, there is a high chance that posters are going to post topics in the wrong forum sections. A moderator/Admin having the ability to move them around is something that is likely going to be needed to keep the forum "clean" once all the monster maniacs come joining and posting.

Topic: Total value of the deck and other tools

Hi, congrats for the game, it's very addictive!

Would be great if in the collection section you can see the total value of your deck of cards in money and in DEC. Perhaps could be fine too have the posibility of trade with the full stack of cards or group them.

What do you think?

For total value of it in USD, you can use the discord bot they've got and use $status yourUsername to figure it out.

Topic: More Options For Delegatees Of Cards

When we delegate a card to another player, we can see a nice little hover text, we move the mouse over the delegation icon.

++Delegator's perspective while hovering over the delegation icon:++

However, from the delegatee's perspective, there is a) no hover text with the information from whom this card was delagted from and b) no option to actually cancel the delegation. Only the delegator can cancel the contract with the official Splinterlands UI. This is pretty annoying and confusing at times.

++Delegatee's perspective while hovering over the delegation icon:++

I suggest we get both a) and b) options but I find a) the info with the delegator's name more important, as it doesn't hurt to have delegated cards. We cannot break a delagtion of Steem Power either, so I would get that b) is rather neglectible.

I am getting this error message for all my comments on the forum:

However, when I refresh the page (and annoyingly logged in again, see my other suggestion post), the comment is there without any problems.

Edit: Posting this new post also ran into an error. It never finished posting, although on the blockchain it happened and after I refreshed the page (and annoyingly logged in again, see my other suggestion post LOL

This isa problem with brave with shields up. They basically block our drafts feature (and persistent login). We are working on a notification to brave users to let them know that lowering shields will greatly improve tgeir user experience and we will fix the error in case the browser disallowed us to save post drafts in localstorage.

I have to bump this as it is incredibly annoying and confusing for new users, who make double and triple posts. This is important to get fixed. Every single post I make, I don't see it get's posted although it does. And every single comment I make, this error above pops up although the comment correctly gets posted to the blockchain.

Topic: Define independent stake between STEEM and Splintertalk (SPT)

I just figure no one offers this...

I want to say... set X% on STEEM power to vote... and Y% on Splintertalk for example. Easy or hard?

EDIT: I guess I might have confused people with the title. Stake is already independent. But what I meant is how much power we put on the vote.

Topic: Localized Sub-Forum

The General category is already filled with Korean posts and comments in otherwise English posts. We should encourage people to post either in English or move the discussion to a localized forum.

We don't need tons of different languages yet, maybe just Korean and Spanish for starters. We can still add more, with growing demand.

Since this is a blockchain forum, I doubt there are many moderation tools. Has anybody more experience with TokenBB? I have heard about this yesterday for the first time. It would be cool to have at least some level of moderation.

The solution isn't to block languages but to improve the technological implimentation in order to facilitate them all... and the solution could be actually very very simple. - @jarvie

Topic: Notification Bell

I only just started here but I have found a lot of helpful information and so far meet a great bunch of people. Best thing about communities is being with like minded people which is why I feel this site and many others will florish as we all move forward.

However one thing that is sticking out at me about this site is it is difficult to keep up with replies to your posts. Would it be possible to add some type of notification bell that lets me know when their are replies to my created forum posts or if I am quoted ? Thanks!

Topic: Fix Zintar Mortaus and his under powered status.

It has become clearer and clearer over time playing this game that out of all the rare summoners so far Zintar is the least useful. The reason for this is because his talent is dependent on the opponents choice of cards. If I choose Zintar and my opponent uses a team without melee attack I have just waisted a mana point for nothing. He is the only rare summoner with this dissadvantage.

I find that more times than not (with very few ecceptions like melee only match) it is better to just use Jarlax because the odds are stacked agains anyone choosing Zintar.

The fix for this in my opinion is very easy... simply change his ability from munus one melee to minus one health or even minus one speed for opponent.

I think that health makes more sense because of being a death creature and all, but either one of these things would keep in the spirit of what I believe was originally intended and even out the power disadvantage.

Either health or speed will affect entire team and not be dependent on opponents choice to have any impact on match.

Am I alone in this?... Thoughts?
