| New Favorites Category in Level Database Saturday, August 29, 2009 10:47 pm — Posted by Livio |
ShareThisThis means that your favorites page can get automatically filled the more you use our level database and on how you rate levels. And it encourages more ratings and more commenting on levels. Along with the new option to order levels by your ratings and by difficulty, this further lets you customize the level database to be viewed based on your tastes.
But you can also add a level to your favorites manually by clicking the "Add to Favorites" button when you are viewing a level.
NOTE: I'm not sure how the favorites page works for everyone right now. I've coded it to make references from three database tables, which can make things pretty slow, but I've been trying to make things run faster, and now that it seems to be running smoothly, I don't know how it'll be for everyone else. So please report any issues.
UPDATE: You now have the freedom to change the minimum-required rating for levels to be added automatically to your favorites. This also brings the functionality to completely disable the automatic-favorites if you put anything greater than 10

Wait, what were we supposed to be talking about again? anyways, i kinda lost track of this topic too. i guess this strolled from favorites-->good-->definition, and this is how we got here.  | |

'shos' said: quirvy, you really have to stop thinking this way. come on, try that cave - it's really not hard. not even close to be the usual timing ck used. he knew from the start that he has to make an easier cave. the fact that you don't play caves - that really is disappointing; when people make caves they want others to play, comment and enjoy them. but you don't even try, cuz it's "too hard" - yet you haven't even tried to check if it really is. my bet is that you did not play yaya's new cave, my new cave, ck's new cave, kro's new cave, etc. if you only want TNT-level levels, then why are you here at all? if something is difficult, even just merely, it doesn't mean it's not original. i almost never produce ANY non-original traps in the last months. perhaps only as fillers. yaya's cave may show you some original ideas too, but hey, they ould be original only cuz nobody tried the caves that included them before. how do you want to keep the site up this way? Thanks Shos, it's about time somebody said that. But being on topic, is there anyway to view somebody else's favorites? Or is that to creeperish?  COMING SOON: A giant meteor. Please. Give me +karma. Give me +karma. | |

i don't think this optin should be there. well, perhaps you should be able to change than in the preferences - you can choose if others are able to see your favs or not. | |

Eh, seeing as you probably wouldn't be afraid of showing people what you think about a level, I think it would only be good if you allow us to view other users favorites. | |

Perhaps ck's cave isn't hard, but that doesn't mean that it's size isn't intimidating, which is what I said; not that it was hard. And no, I haven't yet played his cave yet, because I don't have the time to commit to playing a cave of that size. School starting = buttload of homework. I still haven't finished all of my homework due tomorrow; I'm just taking a break. As for saying that I just plainly don't play caves, that's false. I gave your cave a try, and immidiately gave up, because I had no clue what to do, and now that I've seen the walkthrough, I still doubt I could even come close to beating that cave; I'm not you. I constantly make mistakes while playing caves; And I also played Yaya's cave, as well, but still gave up rather quickly, as the traps look really complex. If I was to try to collect the treasure in the first trap, I would maybe make it every 7 or so tries; I'm not a good caveplayer, and I don't have as much spare time as I used to. In the limited amount of time that I do come online for you guys, personally, I'd prefer to chat a little bit, instead of getting dying repeatedly in someones cave, and smashing my keyboard furiously. TBH, the only caves I've been able to beat or get far enough in to enjoy(other than There and back again by dando), would be all of the caves by Dabigkid, Krotomo and Catta. Other than that, the chances of me beating a cave are close to zero.  spooky secret | |
