📣 Get ready for Builders' Challenge 2!

[EscapeRoomArtist]

Great question…
@Dankoyy you will actually need 20 unique players… 10 unique players for week 1 & 10 more unique players for week 2. Rinse and repeat… this is for the bare minimum REQUIREMENTS for eligibility for rewards.

[Dankoyy]

20 seems like a lot! Aaaaaalot!
Will I have this statistic clearly on the Dashboard?
To know how many are left for me to get the Eligibility?

[EscapeRoomArtist]

No clue maybe @PeaJay or someone else from TSB can answer this as it would be VERY beneficial for this data since this controversial requirement was put in place.

I agree, @EscapeRoomArtist . This is very important because I have received many questions about the process where some artists do not understand how it works, and many of them have never published on their LANDs even though they have been part of the community for many years.

I was particularly happy to see TSB allocating a high substantial amount SAND to the TOP1000. I truly will do my best to help artists and lone wolves to be there, but the questions raised are complicated. I wouldn’t want to see Artists stepping away from the Builders challenge over small things like those.

[EscapeRoomArtist]

I have considered walking away from it… it does not match up with my plans for the Builders Challenge.

To be 1000000% clear, I am here for the common-unity! So if I don’t decide to participate in BC I will be playing the communities games to help them with rewards.

I understand the seriousness of the overall situation, but hold on a bit until we talk on Friday. This time TSB managed to deeply affect me, indeed I have to understand what is happening.

[EscapeRoomArtist]

I may not have properly communicated my position… I am not saying I am walking away from building… heck, I bought another land today! I was just saying that because of this limitation I may not be participating in the Builders Challenge as a builder, TSB’s restrictions prevent what I was planning. The eligibility requirements of the 10 “unique” per week, I can’t run what I had planned because everyone is going to want to start at the same time so my first week would have the most participation and I assume my following week would suffer “uniqueness”. Also, I have not made my participation as a builder decision yet… but will be participating as a player because of my common-unity members! As a community focused person, I will always be there! To help teach game logic, guide through the chaos (like now), and answer questions that are often dodged and/or hidden.

@Dankoyy yes, I am looking forward to us speaking…

Yeah! I know!! I mean launch for own HUB, visit raid in others creators.
The tools we have now with 0.10 with the new CHAT features will change this BC this time. I dont even know if TSB know about this features. But in any case, see you friday.

@EscapeRoomArtist

I bought another land today!

I also bought LAND today. Believe it or not , I bought it from my GameJam partner. I’m going to stick to my plan even if this situation doesn’t get clear, and I’ll motivate whoever I can to continue with their plans regardless.

I haven’t checked how much SAND we need this time, since the question above hasn’t been answered, and ya I do agree that 50% boost is unnecessary high.

I think it would be best to provide creators with an OR option for this category, to give more flexibility. If you own an IP asset, you can easily use it. Alternatively as you suggested, we could explore opportunities within the artist community.

[PeaJay]

Hello! I understand the confusion. At the moment, only the assets listed the collections shared in the medium article enable the boost. Snoop Dogg, Steve Aoki, Paris Hilton, Care Bears, Playboy, Ubisoft, Warner Music Group, Deadmau5, The Walking Dead, People of Crypto, Invincible, The Voice, Captain Tsubasa, Fist of the North Star, and The Smurfs

[PeaJay]

Hello,

I understand the need for clarity here. Scenario C is what you need to qualify. Having 10 players in you experience each week is enough.

[PeaJay]

@VauxMachina

Hi @PeaJay , Just wanted to ask. since we cannot use our IP avatars as NPCs in the experience, can we make an inspired version of the IP avatars we have?

Hello @VauxMachina, unfortunately, you cannot do that. Would have loved to say yes, it would have pretty cool to see. At the moment this won’t enable the boost unfortunately.

[PeaJay]

@Dankoyy

Hey @PeaJay

@VauxMachina

can we make an inspired version of the IP avatars we have?

Taking advantage of Vaux’s suggestions, I’d like to know if we can make specific Equipment Aassets to overlay on well-known Avatars as clothing. The proposal is to create specific clothes for the Avatars with IP. Therefore, create Equipment with the names of the collections and explain the purpose of such Equipment in the descriptions. In this sense, is this allowed to do?

Unfortunately, I do not understand what you are trying to do. Avatars are not modifiable.

[PeaJay]

@Meowl

Same question here as @EscapeRoomArtist.
Many of these IP assets are minted by @SandboxGame.
It would be best to provide a clear asset list, on which assets count for a valid boost so we don’t have to guess.

@Meowl I understand, we’ll do our best to provide this. It would make creator’s life easier.

@MagicFart

If a unique player visits your experience multiple times does their session lengths get combined into one single total session length? If not then is it only the first session length taken into account or the longest or average or last? Could see problems arising when there’s accidental crashes or when hosting competitions or experiences that require full resets.

Your rank is calculated according to your Engagement Score, which can be calculated by multiplying the average session length of your experience by the total number of visits made by players who have accomplished at least one quest.

A unique player can have multiple sessions, every session played influences both your average session length and and your total number of visits. Even if there are crashes, the session is recorded.

Let me know if this clarifies things.

[PeaJay]

@MagicFart

1. Are the unique players tied to the game or the land. Could people unpublish their game and reupload/ upload a new draft and it reset the unique player count after two weeks.

2. Is unique players going to be counted from the very start of the builders challenge or will existing metrics of unique players in that land / published draft version affect the metrics of this builders challenge?

1 - Unique players are tied to your game. The unique player count won’t be refreshed by unpublishing your experience. You are required to have 10 Unique players each week, every 1-week period to be eligible for the 2 week period.

2 - The unique player count starts at the very beginning of BC 2 on June 24.

You need 10 unique players each week, not 20. If 10 players play your game on week 1 and 10 other players play your game on week 2 you will be eligible for that 2 week reward period. It can be the same players, that’s ok. There’s a “unique player” count in your analytics page.

[LittleLegionOrg]

Hi PeaJay.

Thank you for clarifying and confirming scenario C; that 10 unique players each week is sufficient to qualify

[EscapeRoomArtist]

@PeaJay Thanks for the reply… it is disappointing that some of the assets that are on brand are not eligible… however, we are coming to understand that this is starting to be a pay to earn environment more than a play to earn. I am lucky to, but I just feel for those developers who may not have the resources to benefit from this because they have the wrong “Branded IP” assets in their wallet and can’t afford to spend the money to purchase the assets that are more or less required. This seems to be another misstep in the decision makers. This saddens me as a community focused developer.

[EscapeRoomArtist]

@PeaJay I think you misunderstood, or maybe I have misunderstood what you have said all this time… let’s break this down Barney style with crayons…

Which of the following scenarios is correct to earn rewards?

*A). Builder has player “1-10” play in week 1. Those same players (1-10) come and play week 2. (Which is 10 unique players)

*B). Builder has player “1-10” play in week 1. New players (11-20) come and play week 2. (Which is 20 unique players)

We know that every two weeks the reward reset happens and therefore the uniqueness happens as well… by your reply to this 📣 Get ready for Builders' Challenge 2! - #5 by EscapeRoomArtist

Thanks again for your future response.
