Another Admin!

We have another admin! His name is stoecker. He’ll be helping me do moderation and stuff like that. Since he’s an intern, he’ll have more time to spend so he’ll be ingame more often. Later, though, he’d like to help Telamon or another person to code extra features or work on the website. Say hi to him!

Tips & Tricks: How to Get More Place Visits

As a builder, nothing is more satisfying to me than to see that a place of mine has been visited hundreds of times in the past day. Building a cool place takes a lot of time and effort, but the knowledge that hundreds of people are enjoying something I’ve made makes it worth it for me. Not to mention that getting place visits is the fastest, best, and only way to accumulate a vast fortune of Robux. Just ask Stealth Pilot, who has more than 30,000 of them.

I can’t help make you the next Stealth Pilot, but I can offer a couple of tips and tricks to people looking to maximize visits to their place. I’ve listed the most important tricks first.

The Builder’s Club Formula Contest Results!

Well, we have finally chosen a formula: Miked’s. His formula beat many other formulas because:

  1. It was a real formula.
  2. It used weighting to calculate the result.
  3. It was complicated.
  4. It wasn’t just adding up random numbers.

I just finished using Excel to compile a massive table of people’s scores. The highest score was, of course, miked’s. However, the lowest score in the list of 20 winners happens to be in the 40-50 range… but we’re not telling you the exact number. And we’re not telling you who gets BC. Yet. And we’re not announcing the feature. Yet.

The Builder’s Club Formula Contest

I’m kickin’ it back at Roblox Central, writing some C++ code, minding my own business, when all of a sudden Matt announces he’s ready to demo the new feature he’s been working on for the past week or so. Matt gives the best demos. It was awesome. Let me tell you, fellow citizens, I have seen the future of Roblox, and I never want to go back.

We don’t know when we’re going to release this yet-to-be-announced feature, but we do know that to test it, we’re going to need to expand our Builder’s Club test pool. We’re thinking we need between 10-30 additional testers. But how to choose who gets invited to help us out?

DRBC Winners!

 

Ok, here’s the deal. Two unexpected things happened in this contest: there were more entrants that we anticipated, and there was quite a number of people visiting their own places to drive up visit counts (future contests will not be decided by visit counts). In response to this, I have made two changes to the contest rules after the fact (don’t bother to complain).
