deletedabout 8 years

The Battle Snakes competition is here!

The competition has begun!

You may join the competition at any time, the way the points are set up allows you to always have a chance to catch up so don't worry that other people have a head start.

It will end on midnight of December 31st and you must submit your final game before that time.

Winners will receive up to a $10 steam card or $10 worth of em tokens(60). I will ask the winners at the end of the competition which they would prefer.

How to get points

Once the competition begins, screenshot all wins you have against other people on the player list. No points are rewarded for winning against non-competitors.

+1 point for every competitor you beat.

+1 bonus point for every competitor you beat that is currently ranked above you. (+1 additional point if they have at least 50 more points than you)

+1, 2, 3 bonus points for snek length.

The length bonus points are awarded by; Length ≥75, 1 point Length ≥140, 2 points Length ≥200, 3 points

Sweetie69 or I will reply to each screenshot with how many points it is worth and then I will update the thread with your new score.

Rules for your screenshot

Must include url, player list, game window, and, of course, the winner.
Game must take place after competition start (I will release a game number it has to be passed once competition is starting)
Game must be at least 6 players. The players do not all have to be competitors.

Use snipping tool if you don't have a mac. Use command shift 4 if you are on a mac

Battle Snakes is very glitchy and will sometimes kick everyone out and when you return everyone is dead and noavis - screenshot and that game will not count.

A change that would be helpful is, like Sansruse mentioned, if the server responded a bit better to the game. Idk how much you can actually do to change or fix this but battle snakes is notorious for being laggy and will sometimes kick people out of games in the middle of the match completely

i thought it'd be a little better if snakes retained their color, just faded if they die

I think it'd be fun if you added the option to go through walls/dead snakes. Like if you ran into a wall you'd come out the other side. And this would be a box to tick when creating a battlesnakes game.

The dead snakes provide a new map every time, they are part of what makes battle snakes fun, imo. The game would become exponentially easier if you could go through them. As for walls, same thing really, it adds an element of difficulty to the game.

I do like the color change though, admin! It's nice to see who was who at the end of the game
