carl edmundson Posted 18 October 2005 Posted 18 October 2005 mr.c could you put the arcade back on this forum, if it stops people from posting why dont you just open the arcade at certain times
filbertway Posted 18 October 2005 Posted 18 October 2005 mr.c could you put the arcade back on this forum, if it stops people from posting why dont you just open the arcade at certain times I would love to see the arcade make a return maybe people with a post per day avergae of over 2 can access it?
Steven Posted 18 October 2005 Posted 18 October 2005 I would love to see the arcade make a return maybe people with a post per day avergae of over 2 can access it? ... or only if you have posted within the preceding 12 hours.
breadandcheese Posted 18 October 2005 Posted 18 October 2005 The arcade was what attracted me to this messageboard as opposed to others. Alas, a week or two after I joined, you pulled the arcade from the site. I was improving at connect 4 as well.
Gené and Tonic Posted 18 October 2005 Posted 18 October 2005 I wasn't here for the arcade. But on another website I visit, they make the arcade available after a user has a certain number of posts. Maybe that would work? Would love to see one.

Gené and Tonic Posted 18 October 2005 Posted 18 October 2005 As I said, I wasn't here. But on another forum you can play games such as Helicopter, tetris etc. Basic games, but very addictive.
Libertine Posted 18 October 2005 Posted 18 October 2005 The arcade was brilliant, especially Curveball. I'd love too see it back if possible, but I can't see it happening. The amount of posts needed is a good idea though.
Alexikokopops Posted 18 October 2005 Posted 18 October 2005 You had to have 10 posts to have a go if I remmeber correctly, people would join and get 10 posts and then not post again and just use the Arcade. If the amount of posts was higher then it'd work better. But it might just encourage Post Whoring, and it also depends on whether the server can havk it. I remember my stint as Gyroball Champion, I had a little thing under my bname and everything
City Fan Posted 18 October 2005 Posted 18 October 2005 There is no chance it will be added back but I think it reduced the amount of crap posts we had on here.
filbertway Posted 18 October 2005 Posted 18 October 2005 If we had it back, there would have to be a way of letting regulars go on the acrcade. How about, members with more than 500 posts get to access the arcade? Or between us, we could all make a list regulars who would have access to the arcade
Mark Posted 18 October 2005 Posted 18 October 2005 It would cost me more to run this site because i'd have to upgrade with our webhost to cope with the amount of bandwidth it eats up. At the time we had the arcade a nice bloke was letting us host the forum at a cheap price and there was pretty much no limit on bandwidth. I had to get rid when we had to move as he no longer could offer us webhosting. It's also not compatible yet with the current version of the forum we're using so it would have been a no anyway

Samu Posted 23 October 2005 Posted 23 October 2005 Well noticed! Cheers Mr.C!! I'm glad I noticed it early, it's the only chance I'll get to have the top score
City Fan Posted 23 October 2005 Posted 23 October 2005 I think that maximum amount of plays per day is a bit silly to be honest because that helicopter game is really quick so you end up playing it quite a lot.

Because it's only back to see how it goes. I don't fancy the idea of paying more just so we can have the arcade.
City Fan Posted 23 October 2005 Posted 23 October 2005 Because it's only back to see how it goes. I don't fancy the idea of paying more just so we can have the arcade. How many games are we limited to a day?
Libertine Posted 23 October 2005 Posted 23 October 2005 My scores are not being submitted for some reason, how do I change this? I just beat the top score on Curveball, so I'm a bit annoyed. <_<
