That's sad to hear, but I understand, though I am curious what he's still testing in the Pepe Game, because he's been playing that for ages. πππβ¨π€
There are a lot of things to test on the PEPE frog card battle game, though the fact that your frog account has earned more XP than their account since last month !INDEED suggests that they have played less often than you and performed more testing !INSTEAD. π€―πΈ
I wonder if there is any multiple account policy on the #HiveGrove game, as anyone might just create 5 accounts and use them to water each other's groves and save HIVE from not buying additional slots. π±π€―π
How about multiple Hive users playing #HiveGrove using the same IP address (as in the case of family and/or friends with Hive accounts)? π§ββοΈπ±π€
Thatβll be a challenge. I think if there are several people from the same familyβbut theyβre all differentβone account per person is fine; the challenge is figuring out how to handle that. I know some games simply block by IP, so only one per IPβ¦ I think thatβs pretty drastic, but if we have to get to that point, weβll see.
Perhaps you can just require some minimum Hive account Reputation for each player, and just whitelist those that don't have high enough Reputation but are known to not already have an account on the game. π€
Those are interesting ideas. I've already implemented a certain threshold for new accounts to prevent bots, but I could also implement something more stringent to curb them even further.

That's something to considerβit's possible, but I think the costs would have to be pretty outrageous to make it worth it; otherwise, I'll end up paying a lot of hive in the future with more high-level trees and more lands.
That's a big concern of mine. I didn't design the game with payments in mindβit's not meant to make anyone rich. I made it more to encourage people to chat and interact with each other, but I never imagined it would attract so many people; that really came as a surprise to me.
Welcome! Always bring your watering can. It's hot today!
I actually tried to search for a Watering Can item on the #HiveGrove game because of your comment there! π±π

The closest match to a "Watering Can" on #HiveGrove is a (Watering) Drone, which costs 0.45 HIVE for a single use. π§π±π€

Welcome to the hivegrove. Don't forget to water everyday.
Thanks for the welcome! π€
I won't forget to water my plants on #HiveGrove, especially as they give HIVE tokens every single time! π±π

There is, in fact, code to prevent this, but I actually think it's something that could be made even more robust, and I'll be working on it soon.

Welcome to Hive Grove!
Thanks for the welcome! π€
I see that all your 4 plots on #HiveGrove already have 4 helpers each. π±π

Welcome to Hivegrove
I wonder when you would buy another tree on #HiveGrove. π±
I was about to help water your Seed Tree but it is already helped 4 times. π
!MMB !ALIVE !BBH !HOPE !STRIDE
Okie I'll buy one now for you only hehe
Do you mean that you would buy another tree (which I assume would be an Oak Tree) just because I mentioned to you about it? π±π€―π
!MMB !BBH !ALIVE !WEIRD !INDEED
Check now, I hope you can water it. Hehe
I watered your Pine Tree seedling just now! π§π±π€

hello friend, welcome
I just helped water one of your Pine Trees on #HiveGrove! π±π€

I helped water another Pine Tree for you today (UTC)! π±π€

Welcome!
I see that you have all 10 plots on the #HiveGrove game unlocked for your account. π±π
!MMB !BBH !ALIVE !HOPE !STRIDE
Yesss, I bought all the lands and trees!
I wonder if players of the game will have the possibility to unlock more plots (for more HIVE per additional plot). π±π

I think that you would have to reserve more HIVE anyway if much more new players start playing your #HiveGrove game. π±π€
