It was brought to my attention that we didn’t have this so we’re adding this feature in the next few days.
I hope to have tons of celeb images to go with their names plus movie posters coming soon. This should add a ton of new visuals that will make it easier to identify talent when bidding on them.
We’ve made a ton of improvements to the basic site security so now I feel comfortable opening this thing up to more and more of the public.
I hope as we see more and more beta testers join the site that we will be able to launch our first contest in a few weeks.
The first one will be pretty simple; have the highest grossing film for first week and win a prize. The prize will be either a t-shirt or a gift certificate to Amazon.com or something similar.
Movies, movies, movies. More testing with more people this week. In the mean time I am working on starting to get the word out about this hidden gem of a game. There will probably be a press release going out in a few weeks plus I may be lucky enough to score some radio time to shill for HollywoodRollers.com.
Plus we’ve added countdown timers for all the different actions during the week. We will be adding the option for players to get email notifications in the near future but that’s pretty low on the todo list.
Plus we should have t-shirts for some lucky beta tester/helpers in the coming weeks. Just got to find an artist I like enough to get the design done.
Talent was not being removed when players hired them in the talent agency. This has been fixed.
We just fixed the following:
1. Players attempting to join existing groups in IE.
2. Multiple actors showing up in the same auction line for the same movie
We noticed a problem when new people register and try to join existing public groups. We are tackling this right now in order for beta testers play full games. We should have this fixed before the next cycle begins on Sunday at 7:00pm Est.
This should be the last bug that prevents all new members from playing.
