At first, like most scripters around here, I thought "C&G is really nooby", and to be honest, it is. But it's better then alot of stuff on this website as far a maturity goes, so I started messing with them. It took about 1 week to achieve the highest rank in a few groups, and I started to create stuff again to get to the top. I then started to realize how fun it is to build/create stuff, and how boring ROBLOX is when you don't. I also realized it's really easy to get respect when you're a high rank. And it's really easy to bribe your way up to the top.
So now I've started creating really simple scripts that look cool to people, and they like them. Now I'm making a game, that, although it will not have complicated function stuff, and camera manipulation and stuff, and may even use a few free models, will be finished. I realized that my strive to quality was preventing me to finish my projects, although my quality level is always increasing. I realized the way people like crazyman32, and stickmasterluke get about a billion games done, is that they use stuff that looks impressive, and is simple.
So recently, I looked around at all these advance scripters, and saw that, although we can make almost any game on ROBLOX, we still have a average of like 15,000 place visits. Then I look at the first page of the games, and see all these games that are fun, but really really simple, and I realize I can create a new game like them. So now I challenge everyone here.
Let's all make a game. Now lets make this game nice, but lets make our main goal to get it to the front page. Doesn't matter how many free models are in it, doesn't matter how it gets there. Just get it there. Then, wait a bit, and you'll get all these crazy suggestions. Take the simplest ones of these, and put them in your game in about 10 minutes. Then, just keep on going down the list.
Soon, hopefully, we'll all have popular places.
So, who thinks my idea is good, bad, ect. Also, can someone help me with my physics thing.... ?????

Freemodel'd games = 7 million place visits (inb4SONICTHEHEDGEHOGXX)
Good games with effort put into them = 15k average |

The goal, is to make a free model game, then get peer pressure, and make it nice, because YOU ACTUALLY CAN, unlike others. Plus, if we all get to the front page, we can all be like happy or something.... :)

@Arceaus. We aren't talking about group projects here. Also, I'm only in 1 clan, with someone I know in real life, something that will probably never happen to you, due to a lack of people you know in real life.
(Who play ROBLOX). < Not to be cruel, so I added this.
Anyway, anyone going to try?

Let me rephrase it. "Let's all make our OWN game". Happy? Free model time yet?

But first i gotta make an OOP system for Lua, ___ No one will use it
clean up Kitten Engine, ___ No one's going to use it.
reorganize the scriptin of my current project to use OOP, __ If it works, then it's OK as long as it's not a group project.
and make an epic unlaggy game :3 __ Finally got to my point.

Yay! Let's invade the front page, then replace our games with high quality ones!
"I realized that my strive to quality was preventing me to finish my projects"
It's probably the same thing for most of us, but there are some exceptions. One of them is called "Anaminus". |

Actually, if there was a good game engine on ROBLOX, not one of these crappy ones, then I'd use it. But most game engines and libraries made by advanced scripters don't meet my requirements, so I just make my own libraries and all that. In fact, I make them more for the fun of it, since I didn't really use them in a single game yet... :/ |

| I've noticed this too, over scripted games BARELY get to the front, because people aren't used to the complexity. |

| The game also has to be addictive, so that people don't play it just once. Perhaps something that makes the game unpredictable with many different experiences would hold the attention of the average Robloxian. |

It doesn't matter. I just need to prove I can get a free modeled game to the front page faster then they can make 'Radioactivekitten Engine'.

| Another thing, (Once youve made your game good) Advertise with like around 500 tx, but split your money so you can do it multiple days. Also, I often do mine on weekends when more people get on. |

I thought that was common knowledge? Hence the simplicity of my football game, my wrestling game, car soccer, etc.
The most fun thing about roblox, and what seperates it from other games, is the freedom of it. There's no real restrictions in-game so when you add restrictions, it's no longer as fun. Heck, all that happens at my wrestling place is you touch people and they flip then you try to push them off the edge like that and it's strangely fun, not to mention 1000+ favorites. |

Main reason I don't have a lot of place visits==no money.
Proof : ChanceTK2 stealing my place and staying in the number one spot for 4 days straight, then dropping to only being on front for the next 5 days. |
