Topic: Kongregate / Zening Alpha Testers Wanted

I’m in!

Topic: Programming / Andrograde.com

Looks kinda fishy to me. Odd looking website and some weird affiliate links on the page.

Topic: Programming / Haxe - Programming language/Flash Replacement

It compiles to PHP, javascript, Neko VM and of course FLASH.

This means you program in a single language and can request the compiler to produce a .php file, a javascript file of even a .swf

This is not totally true. You can’t write code that works across all 3 languages. They all have their little quirks. The only thing you can use is the haXe standard library. Seems like a cool language but serves very little purpose.

Topic: Technical Support / Comment viewing pages

Is there any way to see only comments on a page? For games.

Topic: Programming / AS2 Game

If anyone is interested please let me know.

Topic: Programming / AS2 Game

How would I simulate 10k gameplays a week? I don’t have enough machine time to do that.

Topic: Programming / AS2 Game

Thanks for the help BigCheese, I am looking for a game that has about 10-20k gameplays a week, so Haddock yours might not quite cut it. But definitely whisper me when you have your game, and I will be able to hook you up with this stats package.

Topic: Programming / AS2 Game

Still looking for a game written in AS2.

Topic: Kongregate / See Kongai Stats

Is there any place where we can see Kongai stats like highest wins, most cards, stuff like that?

Topic: Programming / AS2 Game

No one wants to volunteer?

Topic: Programming / AS2 Game

If there is a game developer out there who has an AS2 game, and would be willing to help beta test a statistics tracking software package please let me know. I am looking for a moderately popular game, not too many gameplays but enough to do some stress testing on my system.

Topic: Programming / Root loaderInfo

I have a url: http://www.xxx.com/track.swf?sess_id=xxx&fv=xxx… but when I am in my swf file, I have no way of getting those values! This is as3 and I need to know how to get those values.

Topic: Programming / Waiting for a value to be returned

I am trying to do some as2 class stuff, but for some strange reason my public var sess_id:String isn’t able to be called outside of the class. Also you define private functions: private function xxx () {} right? And then within the class you can just call them by their name?

Topic: Collaborations / Discovery Engine Beta

We still need another 5-10 beta testers to help improve the recommendation results!

Topic: Collaborations / Discovery Engine Beta

@Phoenix00017 monetization is one of the things that we are really thinking about. May I ask as to why you don’t want to volunteer for the beta?

Topic: Collaborations / Discovery Engine Beta

We will soon be rolling out a website, so that you can see all your likes, dislikes, recommendations, and favorites. This will also give IE users a chance to use this engine, albeit from our website, and not a handy extension.

Topic: Collaborations / Discovery Engine Beta

We are in the phase of collecting data right now, and so we don’t have enough data to start doing large scale recommendations. We are working on surfacing new and interesting games from our database.

Topic: Collaborations / Discovery Engine Beta

Great news, rss feeds are working, and a basic discovery engine is starting to give you more personalized recommendations!

Topic: Collaborations / Discovery Engine Beta

You can now sign up for Wan2Play, and start getting recommendations for yourself at: http://extension.flashstat.ath.cx/register.php We use age and gender to help pair you up with people similar to you.

Please note we are still working on getting the rss feeds, up and running.

Topic: Collaborations / Discovery Engine Beta

We are not using tags at the beginning, but we have a plan to use them in the near future.

Topic: Collaborations / Discovery Engine Beta

Still looking for more beta testers. Also I never said we were using Kongregate tags, in fact we have no such plans.

Topic: Collaborations / Discovery Engine Beta

Our system will use tagging, as well as categories, but also personal preferences. As we develop the system we will have a blog explaining how we are deciding on preferences. Beta testers will just install a small lightweight extension, and you won’t be required to “tag” or define attributes of the games.

Topic: Collaborations / Discovery Engine Beta

I guess you could describe it as that. We have a basic idea of how the technology will work, and now we just need people to help us test it out, and give us some data to work with.

Topic: Kongregate / Beta Discovery Engine

Nope. I did not bother to search.

Topic: Kongregate / Beta Discovery Engine

Since the other topic got taken down for some strange reason, for anyone interested in being a beta tester for a new flash game discovery/recommendation engine please tell me here. Basically everyone who volunteers will be accepted. It’s a firefox extension which lets you rate a game up or down, and then we use this to recommend other games you might like. Leave your name here or shout/whisper me.
