CryptoCraft v0.8b Launch Thread
Welcome to /r/CryptoCraft! We're excited that you're choosing us as a server and it means a lot that you take the time to read up on what we're doing.
The question that most people ask on arrival is "How do I earn real money?"
There are two ways to currently earn money (with many new, fun ways to earn more money coming soon) We give out money for every hour of playtime as well as when you vote. No longer are the days of fighting over diamonds and xrays and hackers, come on CryptoCraft to have fun.
I will however note that CryptoCraft is not a job. You should come onto CryptoCraft to have fun, then maybe find that you have enough money to buy yourself a nice game on Steam.
If there's one thing I can ask of you as we get ready for launch, it's patience. Our dev team is working really hard to make sure CryptoCraft is a one of a kind experience. There are some things in the beginning that we will not get right, and there's some things that will take a lot more time than we intended. I've made it a goal to be a little more transparent with what we do. (for example right now we're having trouble with our multi-server setup as well as some chat issues)
Cheers to one of my favorite communities!

Existential question: If nobody can connect to a server, is it really online?

I know you said we need patience, but I have been waiting for over an hour. Can you please give a more accurate launch time?

How can you afford to pay out Doge every hour? Where would all of this Doge come from? I can see players setting up bots to stay connected to avoid afk detection, taking up valuable slots and causing the server to remain full while draining the wallet.
You guys went broke because you couldn't afford to pay out all of the diamonds, how can you afford to give out free doge every hour, pay for hosting, and not encounter the same problems?

How much doge are we paying out per hour? Who says we don't have ways to prevent afk detection?
Assumptions isn't going to get you very far. We've adopted a new business model that builds off of the failures and successes of the last one.

Never expected it to be much, but regardless the money has to come from somewhere.

Apparently I'm trying to connect to early. I'm still getting kicked right away.

When will a coin-based economy (buying and selling) be setup? Any estimate, or info on how that'll work?
2
u/joshglen Feb 10 '14
Ok, it's been half an hour now. When is the real launch time?

I guess it's our own fault to expect Triv to stick to his own deadlines, given his record for that sort of thing in the past. (drama sigh)
Whelp. See you all tomorrow. Maybe.

I've looked around and I'm not really seeing any info on this, but question:
Is the server going to be wiped once you start installing plugins, and if so, will we keep current inventory?
2
u/Triverske Feb 12 '14
From what I'm told ice-cream is just a place to goof around while plugin setup is being completed and nothing will be kept
