View Full Version : Plant a Forest game
SuperBillyHill 03-06-2007, 06:20 AM Will open every day this month after host game! WOOT! :D
Hello peeps :) SuperBillyHill here with a fun new game for you to play during green month. :) The game is titled - Plant a forest - and it plays like this.. 3 peeps come in and sit it the green Aladdin chairs. Each player has sand, water, and 2 typhoon lagoon tree trunks. The idea is to put water on the sand, then plant 2 trees. I put a generator next to the player whose turn it is and they spin. 1, 2 and 3 and are the good spins. That stands for 1: reduce, 2: recycle and 3: reuse :) The first 1, 2 or 3 you spin gets u water on your sand so it can be ready for planting a tree. For every 1, 2 or 3 you spin after that you get a small palm tree planted in the water on the sand. The first player to have water on the sand and 2 trees planted is our winner :) The players that didn't win exit the red turnstile to the - Please Try Again - room. The winner exits the green turnstile and gets sent to a lush forest full of water and nice green things with tikis to guard against any intruders ;) They play a easy one task quest (u just smile to win your prize). I haven't had a lot of players yet but I did have to make a few small changes to make the game run more smooth yesterday so today after the host game was the first time I got to run it for very long with it running smooth. Well anyway, please come play tomorrow if you can :) See you there :)
Here are pics of the rooms.
This is the game room :)

This is the - Please Try Again - room. It's very dry and the only trees are dead and kinda spooky. ;) There's not any peeps planting trees here so only a few cactus grow but it's mostly stuff there that isn't so great to look at.

This is the - Prize Winners - room. :D Peeps have planted trees here and kept them watered so it's green and very nice to look at. ;)

granacci 03-06-2007, 06:25 AM Its a very fun Game. I'll be sure to be there tomorrow. :)
iShadow 03-06-2007, 06:26 AM Looks very detailed :)
A question though, how will you award those in the winners' room?
SuperBillyHill 03-06-2007, 06:31 AM Looks very detailed :)
A question though, how will you award those in the winners' room?
The peeps that win the game go through a river teleporter that takes them to the quest machine. They play the quest with one easy task (all u do is smile) and the quest machine awards the prize :) That makes it so peeps can't win over and over again and also keeps the game moving faster because I don't have to stop to trade the winner. ;)
And tyvm for the nice comments granacci :D See you there tomorrow :)
Capt.Winner 03-06-2007, 06:32 AM Looks very detailed :)
A question though, how will you award those in the winners' room?
I've used the idea myself, and so have many others. You have a quest running with a simple question, and you only allow winners to do the quest.
Edit: Oops, too late, Billy said it first. ;)
SuperBillyHill 03-06-2007, 06:37 AM Yup :) I don't know who had the idea first to award prizes that way but it's a great idea. TopazR's game - Don't lose your trunks - was the first place I ever saw it in VMK but idk if she was the first ever. But it's a great idea :) I don't want peeps to think I'm trying to take credit for that idea though.
reality 03-06-2007, 04:27 PM Hey SuperBillyHill - I did your game last night and it was soooo fun! Very fair and the prize room was such a surprise to me - great idea for the quest machine!!
Fun Fun, Oh & a GREAT Prize!! Thanks again!
Reality aka realityqueen
Centurey 03-06-2007, 08:42 PM I want to come next time you open it. I like its concept!
BobThePirate 03-06-2007, 11:29 PM Love, the rooms.
SemmaSweetie 03-07-2007, 02:52 AM :eek: I just played that game :D
It was quite fun, but my luck wasn't so great, evn if i got to win, I probably wouldnt have Won a prize bc 2 ppl for host game at the time :)
It was pretty fun, super, good job :)
I lost anyways, hehe, anyways there's alwayz tomorrow if u decide to open it again:15_4_105: :qgreenjumpers: :FLipToungeSmilie: :4:
gabyta 03-07-2007, 05:32 AM GREAT game!!!!! great room and great host too!!!
Fun game! I got a Club33 pin :)
lemonysnicket3 03-07-2007, 05:58 AM the prize is always club33 pins xD..and did you guys really spin for me when i had to eat dinner?
SuperBillyHill 03-07-2007, 06:11 AM Tyvm to everyone for coming and playing today :) I had a fun time hosting the game. I will be open again tomorrow but maybe a little later because I have some stuff to do. And yes hill, we did have peeps spin for you while you were gone, LOL! But please don't be afk in a game room tho.
Most of the peeps played really well and everything went smooth pretty much today :) I feel bad when I have to boot a afk player but I have to because it's not fair to make all the peeps in line wait for one person that goes afk when it's their turn to play. So sorry to anyone I booted but I just had to do it to be fair. The main thing I always try my best my best to do in my games is make them fair. :)
Oh, and also.. Since there was a line of peeps already in the room I made the room owner only at about 9:30 so the peeps in line could play but peeps outside that were waiting in line might have got a - room not available - message when their turn came up. Sorry if that happened to anyone but I didn't want peeps to wait and then not have enough time to play so that's why I did that.
So Thank You Very Much again and see you again tomorrow I hope :) I will restart the prize machine quest so you can win again tomorrow :)
SuperBillyHill 03-09-2007, 06:03 AM Tyvm to all that played :D I hope you had fun. I did! :) See you again tomorrow. Btw.. Prizes have been changed from club33 pin to mansion rocker, color blue :)
lemonysnicket3 03-09-2007, 11:14 PM Tyvm to all that played :D I hope you had fun. I did! :) See you again tomorrow. Btw.. Prizes have been changed from club33 pin to mansion rocker, color blue :)
meanie xD...that is all.
SuperBillyHill 03-10-2007, 06:56 PM Now open! Woot :D Prizes today are ginger bread couch from the holidays :) I hope I see you soon :D
Ok, i have to close for a few hours. See u back later tho and ty to all that played. :)
TopazR 03-10-2007, 10:00 PM Wow, this looks like a very well thought out game SuperBillyHill! Most impressive, and all the rooms tie in so well. Looks like fun too! I'll try to keep an eye out for next time it's open.
Yup :) I don't know who had the idea first to award prizes that way but it's a great idea. TopazR's game - Don't lose your trunks - was the first place I ever saw it in VMK but idk if she was the first ever. But it's a great idea :) I don't want peeps to think I'm trying to take credit for that idea though.
LOL I haven't the slightest idea who first came up with the idea of giving game prizes via kiosk. I have seen it more and more lately though. It really does make sense - saves time not having to trade the prize. Especially in my game where I have as many as 72 Dead Man's Chests to put back in place between each game! :Tongue:
gabyta 03-10-2007, 10:11 PM I have to go to the supermarket now. If I see the room open later I'll be there!!! :)
Centurey 03-10-2007, 10:54 PM I am there!
SuperBillyHill 03-11-2007, 03:58 AM LOL! I forgot to post that I opened it back up but now I had to close it for a while to eat. So it's closed right now but it will be open again in maybe a hour or so and I'll try to remember to post that it's open. Tyvm for all the nice comments on the game and rooms :) I had a lot of players today and almost everyone really like the game :) ty to everyone for coming and playing and I'll see u again soon. :D
Opening again in about 10 minutes. See u there and gl :)
coolskaterdudeguy 03-11-2007, 05:10 AM Very great game and really creative! Nice work Bill!
SuperBillyHill 03-11-2007, 07:07 AM Tyvm for the nice comment :) See you there tomorrow I hope! I changed to random prizes because I was running out of a lot of stuff I was giving for prizes. So there's a lot of different stuff now. Some is good stuff, and some is junk, lol. So it's just kinda random what you will get for a prize, but I hope peeps play because it's a fun game and not just for a prize, but I know I like to at least have a chance at a nice prize when I play a game so I left enough nice things in there that peeps have a good chance for something they will like. :D
dreamytime 03-11-2007, 07:09 AM It is a lovely room (as we always expect from you) and very creative.
:)
SuperBillyHill 03-12-2007, 06:28 AM tyvm to all the peeps that came and played over the weekend :D Some friends messaged me and said that I had a 60 player wait at some times and I checked a few tmes and saw it at like 40 something and the only room more popular when I checked on Saturday was the host game! :) So tyvm for peeps waiting in such a long line to play my game. :D And also I had a few peeps cause a little bit of trouble in line and some that tried to not play fair so I had to stop a few games to get things set right and take care ot trouble makers so I'm sorry if any of that slowed things down for you and you had to wait longer. I just always try to handle things fair and warn peeps first and give them a chance to be nice, but if they don't then I have to boot so that's that. But mostly it went pretty smooth and peeps were nice and didn't cause trouble. No staff visited and that surprised me because it was so high on the list for a long time, but oh well. I will keep trying and I hope they come soon :) So see you again tomorrow with new prizes loaded up and ready to go :)
mari517 03-18-2007, 12:08 AM I realize you can't change it now, but can I just say something that would've been cool to do in the -Please Try Again- Room?
Well since the stuff isn't green and is dead you could've had like the Everest tracks instead of the river ones, because lol it sort of goes against what you said. but it's OK still seems awesome!
Great job, I think you should win Best Game Room.. It's very creative and month-originated, and seems like you put a lot of thought into it.
Good job
Xxx
SuperBillyHill 03-18-2007, 03:56 AM That's a good idea :) I will change it :)
Ok, it's back open again and peeps might even want to lose just to see the new - Try again plz - room, lol :)
Burgs 03-18-2007, 04:38 AM how do you know the winner goes in there only and not the lose??
SuperBillyHill 03-18-2007, 06:05 AM When the game is over, I tell the winner to wait for me to open the green turnstile for them. Then I open the red turnstile and tell the peeps that didn't win.. - Ty for playing and plz try again :) - and ask them to go out the red turnstile. After they leave then I open the green for the winner. :) And if peeps are not playing properly and refuse to go out red after I ask them nicely then sometimes I have to boot them, but not too much. And also if you don't win then going out the red turnstile is kind of a shortcut back to the game because it goes through the - try again please - room and right back to the line for the game :)
Anyway, tyvm to all that played today :) I hope you had fun :D And see you again tomorrow :)
Gobbles 03-18-2007, 06:34 AM I did have fun with ye! But ol' goopy had no luck and lost :(
Aww well atleast it was worth wasting a wee bit of my time since I was bored. Very great room you get there. Well good night and top o' the night to you!
Wait, what did I just say?
Mintypal 03-18-2007, 02:16 PM Its So Cool When I played it I think it should Win top game room
SemmaSweetie 03-18-2007, 02:23 PM I've played it about 3 times, but i still don't have any luck :(
Yesterday, I guess i needed more green clovers to help wit meh luck, but sadly it didn't happen And off to try again, Lol :P
I'm still waiting to be considered a 'winner' for this game, Hmm maybe next time u open it up...
Btw, i agree wit Mint, It deserves a top game room in my opinion :)
mari517 03-19-2007, 12:40 AM Cool you actually changed it? Awesome, good luck, again, with your room. I'll see if I can check it out. Oh and I really think you should win Best Game Room!!
Xxx
EDIT- Hi I saw you in your awesome-awesomatic room, and it's even more awesome in person lol. My friend and I are on her account, as you know, lol. Zonks
gabyta 03-19-2007, 01:21 AM I can't log in today :( I only played once this game :(
SuperBillyHill 03-20-2007, 06:15 AM tyvm to a lot of players that played my game tonight and I think it's a really fun game because even peeps that don't win their first try come back and waited in line to play again. So tyvm to so many peeps coming to play and making the game go way up the list and also at #1 for a pretty long time too. :D I was kinda hoping a staff would come but none did but that's ok because it's really fun to run the game anyway. :) And one huge help to me is - The_Greeter - because he tells all the peeps in line to look at the photo album for how to play the game. So that makes it so peeps know how to play and don't have to ask a lot of questions so the game goes a lot smoother and faster. And one thing I found out about hosting a busy room is it's very very helpful to have great friends that help you. And I'm lucky that I have so many peeps that help me so much. And that's peeps that help directly like the greeter and other peeps that come back and play again and again even after they already won a prize and they do it just to help me so I totally appreciate it more than you know. :D tyvm to all that help and all that play :D Oh, and I would list all the great peeps that come back to play again and again but there are so many that I would leave some out by accidnet and I don't want to do that so I will just say that.. - You know who you are and you are all my greatest and best friends ever in vmk - :)
granacci 03-20-2007, 06:19 AM This game is Fantastic!! Thanks for such a great prize. :)
gabyta 03-23-2007, 05:03 AM I won today!!! thank you Billy :) great game :)
SuperBillyHill 03-23-2007, 06:03 AM Tyvm for playing :) It's a fun game to host too :)
SuperBillyHill 03-26-2007, 06:06 AM Ty to all the peeps that came and played and kept the room very popular for so long so many times since I opened it up :) idk what it's gonna take for staff to come see it but I will keep opening it every day until I'm broke I guess, lol. But it is very fun and a lot of peeps really say they have fun playing and they come back and play again even after they already win sometimes :) So tyvm to everyone that makes it so fun and especially tyvm to my friends that help me. :)
SuperBillyHill 03-28-2007, 06:08 AM A Staff finally came today! Woot! :D Tyvm again to all the peeps that come and play :) But mostly an extra tyvm to The_Greeter and especially granacci for helping me by greeting peeps to the room and helping the players in line to learn how the game works and for being SO MUCH awesome help to me. :D Here's a pic of VMK_Sunny visiting today :)
http://i75.****************/albums/i296/superjocko/VMK_SunnyAtTheGame.jpg
granacci 03-28-2007, 06:11 AM Yay!! I'm so excited that a staff member finally came to visit your great game room. I hope they think its as great as I do :)
SuperBillyHill 03-28-2007, 06:23 AM TYVM :) You totally help make it great :D
SuperBillyHill 04-01-2007, 06:20 AM Well I opened this game - almost - every day this month in honor of the green month theme. So idk if I should open any more or not? But tyvm to all the peeps that played and also invited friends to come play too :D And also again I have to say extra huge major awesome TYVM to The_Greeter and granacci for helping me by greeting players and asking them to read the rules in the photo album while they wait in line and also answering the questions they have sometimes. I guess maybe if I get very lucky and possibly win best game then I will of course open it back up for peeps to play but if not then I guess this may be goodbye to this game because it was made for the green month theme and it wouldn't have a lot of point to it after the month is over. But I had a lot of fun hosting and seeing so many peeps come and play and have fun so it was worth doing no matter what :D
April 04-01-2007, 02:43 PM I throughly enjoyed your game, and you could still keep it open. Who cares what April's theme is? It's a fun game. @_@; Hope that you can open it from time to time. I was always looking for it. ;)
edit: 500th post
vmktradingprincess90 04-01-2007, 09:27 PM SuperBillyHill or SuperHillyBill or whatever your name is (lol i can never get it right) I've played your game before and it was really fun - even though i didn't win :( lol - but I am confused, you mentioned that a simple quest of smiling is required to claim your prize if you win. Does this mean that once I win your game, I can no longer win a prize again? Because I thought that no one was aloud to play a quest twice. Isn't that true? How would that work then?
Amazing game by the way, you're really nice to everyone! :-)
:hop:
April 04-02-2007, 01:50 AM You cannot win again until he resets the quest.
So usually, that is basically play once, and then you can play for fun, or come back again tomorrow.
gabyta 04-02-2007, 02:03 AM congratulations!!!!!
