Media Wynn News S2 #3 Gavel Stream, Portals In Lobby...

Hello Wynncraftians!
Welcome to Wynn News!

Today we will be talking about a fancy Gavel Stream
hosted by Grian, the replacements for the signs in the
lobby, and much more so stay tuned!

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Gavel Stream! Hype Increase Or Decrease?



Recently on October 3rd, Grian hosted a stream on his Twitch
page, http://www.twitch.tv/grianmc/profile The purpose of this
this stream was to increase the hype of all the players who were
"losing faith" in the content team.

Some players say that the complete transparency on where
the content team was in their quest to complete Gavel discouraged
them. Others say that the amount of Gavel shown really got their hopes high.


We Have @Bionic_Mage™ To Interview @Drew1011 On The Subject:​

How did the Gavel Stream affect your hype?


Well, to be honest, the stream disappointed me. I was hoping to see a little more of Gavel, and learn about new stuff. My hype has been almost dead since the last release date was passed, and it just killed my hype completely.


Do you think Grian will be doing more streams any time soon?


I think that Grian will only do another stream if the release date is moved again, because they would only show more stuff if they needed to keep the hype alive.


Some people say that the stream “didn’t show much” do you agree?


I agree. Unless I missed something, we were shown two things, yet they were from features we already knew about. 3d models, and cutscenes. Myself, and many others agree that now much was shown. I was under the impression that this stream was going to show us tons of new stuff, yet only a few questions were answered, and only a few features were shown. I'm not trying to get mad at Grian, I just think that we have been shown far too little, considering how long this update has been being made.

Thanks Drew, Bio!

New Portals!



Recently the signs in the lobby were taken out to
be replaced with new portals! These portals will
direct you to the compass menu when entered.

Although, since the old signs needed to have
three separate lanes in the lobby and only one
portal, players argue whether the portals are
necessary, since they find that changing the
lobby would be tedious considering the fact
that they would have to take a break from
making Gavel to complete this task.


We Now Interview @Amplitude Over The Matter:
​

What do you think of the new portals in the lobby?


I think the new portals in the hub are a great addition to the Wynncraft server.


Do you think this will make it easier or harder to access your servers?


I believe that the portals will make access faster and easier then the old signs on the walls, this is because a lot of the time the signs did not work or you would need to find a server not full.


Why do you think the staff suddenly decided to make this change?


The staff team most likely changed the signs to portals so that players could just join a lobby, and hop into a wynn world and play with no stress.

Thank You Amplitude!

Gavel Support Shown By Player In Thread



A new post by @Mular5 shows his appreciation of the
content team's hard work and puts to shame many players
who make fun of the pushed release dates. The thread can
be found here:

https://forums.wynncraft.com/threads/the-gavel-support-post-from-mular5.91522/

In this thread he asks the community to make
a structure or object in minecraft and post it in
the comment section to represent the player's
respect for how hard the content team is working
to create Gavel! Go check it out!


Now We Have An Interview With Mular Over His Thread:

​

What inspired you to make this thread?


I have seen many different communities, but i always felt wynn was the one with the most promise.
But recent events have shown me that the pressure is affecting the entire team, something i could not stand by and watch.


If you were to say one thing to everyone making fun of the pushed release dates, what would it be?


PLEASE STOP MAKING FUN OF THE DATES, i am 78.6% sure members of the staff team are getting SICK of them.


How do you think this thread will affect everyone's view on the amount of time it is taking to create Gavel?


Hopefully, more players will realize that Gavel is a massive project, and that the staff need our support, not our pointless begging about its release date.


Would you like to mention any special builds that players have made?


None have been made for the post yet, but that will hopefully change!

Thank you Mular!

The rules in here include the following:

Hopefully this will weed out a lot of the less-desirable
threads and messages. Thanks Salted!

Horse Breeding Simulator?!

A new breakthrough in Wynncraft sciences reveals...
Horse Breeding Simulator? That's right! A player named
@Redgodzilla created a program that allows you to accurately
simulate breeding horses in Wynncraft! Cool, huh?

The thread can be found here:
https://forums.wynncraft.com/threads/horse-breeding-simulator-game.91201/

And the game here:
https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/79198200/

So if you don't have much money, but want to breed
horses all day, well now you can!


We Interview The Creator Of The Program:
​

Bionic_Mage™:
How long did it take you to make this simulator?

Redgodzilla:
It took a couple hours. I am fairly proficient with scratch. It was done in one night and part of a day.

Bionic_Mage™:
You have made a huge impact on the community with this project. How does that make you feel?"

Redgodzilla:
Well I don't know about "Huge" impact, but I am happy with the positive responses. After deciding to get back into Wynncraft and get active on the forums, I tried to make a thread. Only to be bombarded with people telling me how unoriginal it was. This made me upset, more with myself than the community. So I decided to make something original, that people could enjoy. Hopefully I have given some people something entertaining, and maybe helped some people figure out how much it will really cost to get a white horse. As long as the community is happy, I am happy.

Bionic_Mage™:
Will you make more simulators in the future?

Redgodzilla:
Yes, for sure. At the bottom of my post I put in something about how I'm going to be making for Wynncraft related games. Maybe another kind of simulator, but I was also thinking a WYnncraft themed choose your own adventure game would be fun. Or anything else that I think of or is suggested.

Thanks Redgodzilla!

---------------------------------

Well that's all we have time for!
I hope you enjoyed this extra-packed
Wynn News edition! Don't forget to
message @Grimmcat about a problem
you're having for a chance to be apart of
Grimmcat's Problem Solving Corner!

As always thanks for all the support

This Has Been,
Wynn News

P.S. I forgot to post a header image for the
"New Rules" section. And every time I go into
edit > more options

It pulls up,"data:,".
Is this an error for everyone?​

 

I don't dislike grian or anything, I just said what I truly felt about the stream. Just putting that out there! ;D

 

Nicely done pillow! good as always :D

 

Lol TBH, Bio's avatar makes it look like he's interrogating them instead of interviewing xD

 

it really does

 

Why so serious?

 

What do you mean by Grian showing not a lot of features? He did show a good chunk of the map (I would say examples but I don't know if that would be spoilers of the stream).

 

Just a suggestion, but could you add could you add a weekly wynn themed riddle/joke? I love reading those in the newspaper.

P.S good job on the interviews

 

I replied to Mular's post with an... 'armour stand' comic, I guess? here it is: https://forums.wynncraft.com/threads/gavel-and-i.91545/

 

The less we know about Gavel when it comes out, the more we will be suprised when it does.

 

Guessing feel okay about missing the stream

 

Sounds interesting!

 

This is really cool and interesting! I would love to see this become a weekly thing!

 

Although I am on the content team, I think the stream actually revealed quite a bit. I know Grian forbids stuff talked in the stream to be mentioned outside of it, but quite a lot was revealed (in terms of new features). Ok, so not a lot of actual Gavel builds were shown, but several interesting new things were shown off and Grian answered lots of important questions. Hopefully, those who saw the stream should be as hyped as ever.

"They would have to take a break from making Gavel to complete this task."
I don't think those portals would've taken much time to build at all... And if you are worried about the content team wasting precious minutes/seconds that could be spent on Gavel then you might as well hook them all up to a battery farm and force feed them bird seed until the work is all done.

 

what

 

Anyone remember @Marraino's Wynncraft show?? <3 <3 Memories :')

 

Yea, Dernel Jungle is acutally semi-underground

 

It is. :D thanks!

________________________________

You should tag the person who answered the questions for better results. As for the second part. I am merely stating facts. Wynn News has no opinion. And I am not worried about how much work and effort the content team is putting in ;) keep up the good work!

 

I know, that's why I didn't tag you directly :)

I, for one, am tired of being told that we aren't trying or are wasting time with small details. People saying "Ugh... Gavel will take another millennium..." merely mean that CT members work slower, either because it takes time to respond and explain why or because the admins have to figure out how to build hype back up.
By this point everyone knows that people are losing hype/hope, there really isn't any need to make loads of new "Hyppe iSsHh Deead" threads. Ok, so it has become a community joke that Gavel will/has take forever, but I think the whole community is getting pretty sick of complaints by now...

 

I used to make fun of Wynn news, but it's really coming along now, keep up the good work!
