SOG BETA TESTING

SEASON 2 ENDS, SEASON 3 STARTS SOON! ARE YOU READY?

As announced, with the end of February, the Beta Testing Season 2 is over, too. During these 10 days, over 73 000 waves have been cleared and more than 430 cards evolved until the quad fused stage! All players whose accounts were created before February 24th, and who have entered their XCP address, were eligible to get rewards during the last season. They received points according to their quad fused cards and then those points were converted in BitCrystals, using the coefficient 10. Those have just been sent.

WHEN ONE THING ENDS, ANOTHER ONE BEGINS!

HERE'S THE SEASON 3!

All the non-blockchain cards, as well as the in-game currencies are being reset and an UPDATED BETA VERSION is being released! What's new? Lot of items from your "wish list" we have received through the feedback form or the slack channel, are there: We have the first version of a multiplayer! When choosing this option, you'll play against a random player's deck, completed with some other random cards. Supplementary confirmation when crystallizing your cards has been added. From now on, you have the possibility of crystallizing several cards at once. By clicking on the "crystallize" button, situated on the Team screen, all your level-one unfused common cards will be crystallized. Two brand new levels have been added. The network usage has dramatically decreased, you can leave a level whenever you want ("exit" button), or you can switch the music off. You can access the leaderboard directly from the main game screen (the map of Askian), as well as the beta-testing slack channel (by clicking on the "feedback" button), where you can meet our dev team.

SEASON 3 RULES

The Beta Testing Season 3 will start at the moment when all your offchain cards and in-game currencies are reset. This will happen during this Thursday. We are waiting for the iOS version approval and will reset it once everyone, no matter on which platform, can access the new version. The Season 3 will last until March 24th. During this season, you have to clear as many waves as you can (as for the first season), and there'll be a special bonus for those who end up in the top ten at end the end of the season. IMPORTANT: Please, remember that you have to fill in your Counterparty address! Otherwise you can't receive your reward. If you haven't linked your SOG account to your Counterparty address before the end of the season, you can't claim your reward later.

If you any difficulties, our Gameplay&Cards Guide will help you!

How do you become part of the slack channel? I've been trying and haven't heard any word about it.

I am on board...have bought me some of this coin, looking forward to see how price goes UP this year (I hope)   - The sell books are SUPER thin, let's hope it stays that way! WOW!  When BCY becomes in demand I can see the value per coin skyrocketing...both for gamers using it and traders trading it.  

I also notice MANY coins were burnt after the ico, so there are only like 15 million now?  In addition to more being burnt often as the game/cards gets off the ground soon...holy cow, serious potential for rarity increasing and ppl will take notice.

Very positive development by dev team too which is something everyone should be comfortable with.    -  I'm not so into such gaming but I will check into it.  I see ppl have been buying which means something must be coming!

Thanks for the update dev! Can't wait to try multiplayer and to see the players suggestions in action

Looking forward to season 3! Got to get some wave clearing going!
Also appreciate the improvements, it was time-consuming to crystallize cards one by one.

Strange, I did not receive any bonus crystals for this round... Evolved at least 6 cards to max

Very good.  When things get going into April I think a coin (and game) like this will need heavy marketing/promo all over the 'net to be a bigger hit.  I assume you have plans for perhaps Facebook or also game app on Android Store or Apple istore? (Excuse me if I'm wrong and you're already on there?)

Strange, I did not receive any bonus crystals for this round... Evolved at least 6 cards to max

Ye, I received this message on Let Talk Bitcoin "You have received a distribution of 530 BITCRYSTALS", but I don't see it updated or the funds added to my wallet.

I think it took a day or two last time before it was actually sent out.
I don't see anything sent to my address when I check.

also still waiting on mine, but more then willing to wait

Awesome updates, can't wait to try it!

You probabably already know that there are problems on counterwallet (and counterparty as well) because of high fee requested.

Those issues do damage card and bcy circulation (Are Swapbots fine and running?)

I think that EDS should take a position between Core and Classic, or in genral on the blocksize debate.

For example:

Do any other coins have a shrinking supply like BCY?

I believe there was another coin that had this as a primary feature but i don't remember what the coin is. The shrinking supply though is just part of what is interesting about SOG and BCY, the OP  for this thread suggests that in-game purchases will effectively be market purchases of BCY that get burned... this is even more interesting than just burning, depending on how they implement this because both volume and price will be impacted. I haven't heard any details about this so I am skeptical. If this turns out to be the case and it is well thought out, I will show a lot more interest.

Nice Work SoG team!
Any chance of getting credit from round 2 if counterparty address was not linked until 3/2/16?

I can prove ownership. Have tested since round 1, but was hesitant to link address until I just saw the Chrome extension (very cool btw)
Anyhow if Dev team could pm me I would provide account details, thanks

Coins are harder to come by now so it would mean a lot to those of us who tested and sent bug reports.

Hello EDS, any news about the possibility to quote BCY on any Chinese Market?

IMHO The right market is this:

https://www.yuanbaohui.com/coins

Factoids (FCT) (factom) did a super prince jump when listed there.

Listing BCY on a chinese market is the best and cost effective marketing option you have.

Maybe better waiting so long that game is available with Chinese language? Then it maybe get more news space also

Hi Cryptophilanthropist,

thanks for your message!

Unfortunately, as stated in the Season 2 rules announcement, only the accounts created before Feb 24 were eligible for this season.
Nevertheless, if your address is linked now, you can take part in the Season 3, which starts later today (at the moment when your in-game currencies and offchain cards are reset).

Thanks for your understanding.
