Wooly Targets - a new minecraft minigame creation

(1/3) > >>

ogMolton:
I'm testing a new minigame within minecraft that involves throwing objects at a very high distance onto targets, then going down and counting up the scores.







an opticraft original creation

I'm leaving the door unlocked and open, not all the glass is protected, please don't grief, have fun. 

goto /home ogmolton and bring at least 4 of a couple different kinds of materials with you. Read the signs, don't jump off the platform,  fall down the hole

hennydeez:
This actually looks fun, I might give it a try when I get in game. :P

ogMolton:
most of the play testers really liked the game. A couple of people liked the game so much they took the time to make a big lilipad heart next to the target.  

I haven't been charging anything but people still want a prize so they take what they can pick axe off of my stuff :(
one time someone went the wrong way off the platform and died, i tried to give them back their stuff but the other guy there was convinced i was trying to give that person a prize even though i was trying to give them their stuff back.  It's less confusing to have an empty inventory when hosting one of these games.  I gave someone my diamond pick axe by accident, but they gave it back.

The glassed in, locked design is so people can't mess up the score by trying to steal all the wool i'm giving out, i like to give out just 4 of a wool so it's not confusing, whenever people use their own materials they tend to throw more than 4, but i guess the game is still in it's very early stages.  Also, if people die by juping down on purpose or accident, their stuff is locked in the target area

ogMolton:
I got protection stones in place to protect the target area enough to make this a public attraction.  The game really doesn't need much explaining and it doesn't really require someone to host it either, it just requires following the simple rules and civility from the players.  It is best played when everybody only has 4 of a wool color to use, but people can come and use sand, cobblestone, whatever they want, as long as no two players use the same material type and everybody throws the same amount of blocks, which is usually 4 blocks.  Any more players at a time or blocks thrown at a time might make taking scores to confusing.

If I'm hosting a game I can close the door to the target area to prevent people from being able to get inside and ruining the game before score can be taken, but people can still jump into the target area from off the platform and ruin a game and steal the materials thrown if they happen to suck bad enough, this is about the only downside of the game I can think of aside from people falling off and dying by accident. 

Please come and visit with your friends, if there is more than 4 of you, a spectator area exists below next to the target area, if you like the game and would like me to be able to fully protect it and add a second, higher, more difficult target, please donate by typing "/pay ogmolton 100" (100 is an example)  Thanks for checking it out.

This is a good idea, did you think of it yourself, or did you get it from someone else?
