Wasn't sure what to think of this, so haven't really touched it.  I see this is starting to make some progress.  Going to see what it's about.

August update: there's some shiny new stuff going on in-game, including a .1337btc prize if you manage to win Eulora's very first easter egg hunt. Also the client source is up for anyone who wants to compile their own, there's an open coding task up for grabs, and so on.

Details here.

To update the forum, an early alpha was in fact released, last month. It's sort-of functional.

The server is going up and down a lot as per the needs of the devteam so there's no guarantee you may see it at any given time. Nevertheless trying is free.

Went through 10 pages and still don't get what do you mean by "game".
Are you talking about developing gambling games like Satoshi Dice to have people put BTCs in and get part of their investment (hopefully) back?
Or you are talking about general computer games like World of Warcraft?

BTW, what just happened on BTCT, feeling like on a roller coaster, anyone can fill me in?

Well if you want info, you read the discussions on Trilema rather than going through ten pages of this nonsense.

...Lol oops, beaten to it.

Did you read the linked trilema posts? The main game being developed currently is a MMORPG with a real cash economy.

The BTCT TAT.MINIGAME is just a pass-through, and the number of shares is not very large, so it is easy to spike the price upward (or downward) without really affecting the overall evaluation of S.MG.

Thank you! Crystal clear now Wink

There's a difference between kidding yourself and not knowing something. Once you are told, you have the opportunity to learn. I'm happy to say I learned something today. Thanks, greyhawk.

In that case, here's another thing to learn:

http://www.sec.gov/News/PressRelease/Detail/PressRelease/1370539730583

Hope your secret underground base is secret and stuff.

That doesn't make sense. But for what it's worth, I know you tried. Good work, greyhawk!

Good, Pirate is about to be hanged or made to walk the plank. As was custom 200 years ago. Cheesy

Of course the present day pirate Jon Corzine who ran away with millions of MF Global deposits will still escape scott free.

Memo to prospective pirates today: get politically connected. Tongue

They found Trendon now that is newsworthy

The point was, "that's something I did in my spare time, what have you done?"
Oh, I see, it makes sense.

Problem is that he thinks he need no previous experience to do that, and this path always lead to spectacular failures.

I would really like S.MG to succeed, because I want to play a new game. It's really that simple for me.
I understand, but for the sake of the Industry, I want him to fail: such an arrogant and ignorant person can be quite harmful, and we would stay much better if people like him wouldn't try to meddle in things they don't understand.
"We" is both people in game development, and, to a lesser extent, players themselves.


Who is being arrogant now? We can't have anybody shake the boat of our precious "industry"!

But it is also fair to say that I am as far above someone like greyhawk as tsp and ff are from me.


Don't kid yourself.  Wink Just because I left the gaming industry some 15 years ago for better paying and more relaxing pastures doesn't mean I don't know anything about it anymore. The more things change, the more they stay the same, especially in this industry.
