Temple of the Roguelike / Re: Issues with forum / blog? Post here!
« on: March 02, 2018, 06:42:27 PM »Some of older forum links seem to be misconfigured. For instance, the one in my signature. The link (http://roguetemple.com/forums/index.php?topic=1915.0) redirects to https://blog.roguetemple.com/forums/?topic=1915.0, which gets HTTP 404.
Sadly I think this is an issue with the previous migration to http://forums.roguetemple.com
However... I think I can still try to fix it in the redirection set up. Thanks for the heads up!

It was a pretty productive year ---> https://blog.slashie.net/2017/12/31/slashware-2017-rewind/
I also had a daughter, and lots of almost fun work bringing enough revenue to probably buy a house next year, so I'd say it was a pretty good year

Temple of the Roguelike / Support page updated with current projects
« on: January 15, 2018, 06:22:33 PM »
Your contribution helps me pay hosting fees and other operation costs, as well as continue making roguetemple grow. See below for details
http://roguetemple.com/support/
Current Infrastructure
- Private VPS at DigitalOcean for http://forums.roguetemple.com (120USD / Year)
- Blogging account at Wordpress.com for https://blog.roguetemple.com (48USD / Year)
- Shared Hosting at Bluehost.com for http://roguetemple.com (Blog and other content) (252USD / Year) [NOTE: Not used exclusively for roguetemple]
Current Project: Migration from BlueHost
I am moving away all roguetemple.com content from my personal bluehost account, this is to make mantaining the blog easier, increasing security on it and keeping cost controlled and separate.
The blog is now set up at wordpress.com, all data migrated and working. Pending: Finish redirects setup to avoid missing content.
Planned Projects
Revive the Roguemundi: Roguelike World Map. Back on 2008 we had a website where people could add themselves in and check if there were other roguelike enthusiasts in their home towns or any locations they were visiting. I'm planning to set it up again with a modern 2018 UI.

Events and News / Roguelike Expo as part of Roguelike Celebration 2018?
« on: November 20, 2017, 09:20:46 PM »
Hi all!
I started a discussion about this over twitter but I figured this would be a better place to discuss!
How about a having a "roguelike expo" as a sub-event on the roguelike celebration, where developers can display their games on booths / tables and players can go check them out, as an addition to the main talk schedule, while keeping the single track model for talks?
The idea for this is so that devs of new games can get feedback and promote their games, and existing games can show their new features.
Some options that have been considered:
Would you as a player or as a developer be interested on it?

Some options that have been considered:
- Having it happen on a third day, may be half a day
- Sacrificing the time for two or three talks for it, may be after lunch on Sunday
Would you as a player or as a developer be interested on it?

Temple of the Roguelike / roguetemple.com moved to wordpress.com
« on: October 17, 2017, 02:48:56 AM »
As part of plans to revive the blog, I have moved it into the hosted wordpress.com service.
This shouldn't have a lot of impact over the forums, but if you guys could check http://blog.roguetemple.com and check everything's good, I'd appreciate it

This isn't Krice's forum tho. This is roguetemple, with 10 years old rules of behavior that we all ought to follow.
Mushroom, your behavior in this thread is unacceptable. You have been a member of the forums for a long time and I consider you have valuable things to share, please don't be like this - you can do better.
If there's any instance where you feel Krice is going against the rules of behavior, please report the post and the case will be evaluated.

7DRLs / PokemonRL 7DRLC 2017 Success
« on: April 04, 2017, 03:28:40 PM »
Well, I forgot to post about it here!
You can check the full story here: https://blog.slashie.net/category/pokemonrl/ and play online here: http://slashie.net/pokemonrl/
Your goal is to become a Pokemon master by defeating the gym leaders of the 8 cities in your region. Map is randomly generated, deploy your pokemon using "R" and a direction to fight wild pokemon and gain XP (or to weaken and catch them!) your pokemon will evolve and learn new skills.
Pokemon data is heavily based on the Gen 1 official dataset which I've been gathering from around the net. This is an open source project: https://github.com/slashman/pokemonrl contributions are welcome and you are also welcome to use the data in your own game.

Slash, as far as I know you are primary maintainer of roguebasin. Would you be willing to give someone permissions to edit main page
Well, I'm looking at the list of sysyop and I dunno if any of them would be in for assuming a more active "editor" role for roguebasin http://www.roguebasin.com/index.php?title=Special:ListUsers&group=sysop
If some's really interested on working on it, and preferably has a record of activity and invovlement in the roguelike community, I'd gladly give access.
