Title: Anybody interested in shooting virtual archery?
Post by: Audrada Roibeardet on July 25, 2022, 06:14:09 PM
Since there seems to be a surge in fun activities around here, I considering reopening the Toxophilite Club. I found a decent mobile game that's pretty fun. If anyone is interested in some friendly competition, let me know.

The app I'm using is called "Archery Club". If you download it, let me know so I can send you an invite code.

I'll download it, but I think I ruined my eyesight on that other archery app

It's the best option we have right now. Maybe in the future we'll shoot real archery and do some kind of postal match. Right now, it's virtual or nothing.

Is this the same app we played on before? (I thought the other one had a different name, but all I did was download it and it came up with my user name already on it....) Anyhow, I'm Taiwos73

Everyone that's downloaded the game, you can search for our club. It's "Toxophilite Club"... obviously.

I've been shooting like garbage lately. Can't hit the broad side of a barn.

Also, since we're a club, we're competing against all the other clubs. The more we win, the better we do in the rankings. Get out there and win some matches.

Just a quick check in on my fellow Toxoplasmosis (:)) Club members.

I was doing really well recently until I got into Arena 4. I have had my butt kicked a few times in frustrating fashion. But won a few too.

I spit my coffee reading toxoplasmosis, lol.
Good reminder, I noticed that the pvp in the first levels is like a computer programmed to be very bad, right? Like they all miss every shot haha. BUt reading that Arena 4 is hard now I'm motivated to get there. Thanks for the reminder, my fellow toxoplasmosian.  ;D

That's the plan. I thought we could use some time to practice and upgrade our gear.

I'm thinking we could do some shoots in September. Any ideas on a format? Maybe a...what's it called? Is it called "double round robin"? I don't know, we'll figure it out. ;D

Should we set up a Toxophilite Club sub-board on Witt? Is there enough interest to do that? Can we legally do that?

I've been more inspired recently when it comes to the Club. I have some ideas but I'm not sure our activity would warrant our own board. Problem is, I don't know where else to post my ideas.

Thoughts?
Title: Re: Anybody interested in shooting virtual archery?
Post by: Bråneu Excelsio, UrN on August 05, 2022, 01:43:37 PM
I think a Special Interests -> Community/Games/Culture board would be nice.

We made a poker tournament, we're about to do a risk game and a virtual archery tournament (and club) and I'd like to continue doing stuff like that.

I second this.

Update: Here's the plan for September. We'll each compete against each other twice. You'll have a week to get the shoot done so that gives you some wiggle room for scheduling.

Each match will take place at Arena 3. It's "best of three" so you'll need to shoot a minimum two games. Each round you win is worth 1 point. If it goes to "overtime", each archer gets 1 point and whoever is closest gets 1 point. If an archer wins the two rounds to win, you get a bonus point. So, that's 3 points for a shutout.

Clear as mud? Yeah, I hope that's not too complicated.

Any questions, comments or concerns?

Anyone interested in head-to-head matches this weekend? If so, I am broadly available this weekend, just let me know some times you might be free and I will try to jump on.
Title: Re: Anybody interested in shooting virtual archery?
Post by: Audrada Roibeardet on August 28, 2022, 12:20:19 PM
Here's what's happening with the Club.

When I started the Toxophilite Club back in the Republic, the virtual "Clubhouse" was located in Florencia (my old province). It was a pinned comment where all the Club business happened. This time around, I've requested a sub-board (I guess they're called "child boards" now) in Fiôvâ. I don't see why that request will be denied so our new "Headquarters" will be in Fiôvâ.

Regardless if that gets setup or not, we will be moving forward with our September Virtual Shoot. I'll have the official rules and schedule posted before September 1st.

Any questions, comments, concerns?

I fully support this, your proposal and the plans for september.

Mark, if you want to shoot in September, please let me know before the end of the month.

Feel free to join the club, if you like. Just need to know if you're shooting next month so I can add you to the schedule.
