    Apparently we need to do this, and also require a screenshot of your character IN the base you're voting for. Maybe then DawL's followers will be able to form their own opinion.

    But an alt account can still log in and be in the base.  What is it proving?

  2. Honestly the only way forward in my opinion to preserve integrity is to say that because of vote rigging and alt brigade voting that the category be cancelled this year and admonish us all with a "Those responsible know what they did and hopefully next year this doesn't happen again."  Anything short of that says it's ok to campaign for specific bases.  And it's not the base designers that are being celebrated, it's the base owners.  The base designers win no matter what through exposure to their work.

  3. Hi there, I am Claire Darling, a moderately known builder from the Everlasting Server, (the one that shared the sliding on letters trick a year ago) and I'd like to invite you to my new discord where I've been reviewing some of the public bases as well as a number of requested locations.  We've got a lot of the top builders trading ideas and pictures of their creative constructions and I'd love to see what you've come up with as well.  And since the servers are down right now, you're probably looking for entertainment anyways.  I hope you'll join us even if you're not from our home server, everyone's welcome!

  4. It seems to work by suspending your landing.  I've tried making ramps and it doesn't transfer falling motion into forward motion well.  But you can slide uphill without resistance so used right you could make escalators.  It's tricky lining letters up at an angle, but it does work.

  5. For wide lane O-Rail Slides, it was not necessary to make the O's too close as seen with Green and Blue. Green and Red allowed for the same sliding conditions without any dip in height. Also when a water surface was placed over it, instead of swim animation it was surfing animation.

  6. Hi, I'm Claire Darling, from the Everlasting Server, and I am the creator of the O-Rail.

     

    So through experimenting with different surfaces I've found that some will trigger the slide or grind animation when traversed across.  The technique I'd like to share I refer to as the O-Rail because it's made with the letter O aligned in a row.  This allows the player to slide across the top of the row of letters using physics similar to ice.  The letters will only let you travel one direction, but clever builders can still find use for this.  We've also found that the height of the letter needs to be a certain amount or the player will attempt to stand on the object under the row of letters instead.  This limit is roughly just below knee high, and I did not test with different character sizes, both myself and my partner Kinetic Velocity are about the same height and build.

     

    One thing we've noticed is that if you're going to use a long rail, then a fence to lean on will keep you aligned so you don't fall off.  Below are a couple pictures from our base OASIS-3471 that use this technique and you're welcome to try it out yourself.  I'd love to see pictures of this technique put to use in creative ways.

  7. You were enchanted by the majesty of Black Friday,

    You rocked out with your friends at Joker's Wild,

    You stayed up late partying at After Hours.

    You deserve to relax and enjoy the mysteries of the deep at Oasis!

     

    Hi, Claire Darling here, I'd like to invite you on behalf of the staff at Oasis to see the new renovations we've made at your favorite Saturday Night hot spot.  Some of you might be thinking "Oasis?  Isn't that the flooded mall with like nowhere to park?"  Well, I have great news!  We still have no parking spaces, and we flooded even more!  So pack your swimsuit, find your favorite portal and dial OASIS-3471 and join us tonight for the unveiling, and every Saturday night until we get shut down from 8-Midnight.  Then be sure to keep the party going at Afterhours at midnight if you're still looking for more fun.
