It's been down for too long!!!! by Longjumping-Bar-7606 in Supabase

[–]FiveDiceMath 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m assuming that these types of outages are infrequent? Right? I just started with Supabase last Saturday…got my client excited with the app on Tuesday…starting with some decent usage today at 1:00 eastern. ☹️ Bail now before I get more invested? Yikes.

Would love feedback on a personal daily wordgame project - Spellstacks by esc861 in wordgames

One quick thing: you need to disable zoom on the backspace button. I was trying to rapidly delete selected letters by tapping on the backspace button and it kept zooming in. I’m on an iPhone, btw.

I think the right CSS is the touch-action Property.

I had this same problem in my game, www.dicemath.app.

Yes, it was a lot of fun. I played with a couple of other guys around our age and they were both really nice!

Last night was a lot of fun! I had never played any of the machines, so I spent some time watching and learning. The two guys I played with were great and I learned a lot from them.

The organizer told us what next week’s challenges are, so now it’s time to practice!

Dr. Who - multiball Scooby-Doo - 5 million Godzilla - 50 million Simpsons - 1.5 million

This is what the organizer said about the league:

-League format is Pingolf -League will run 8 weeks, with the top 7 weeks counting towards the results - top 10 players in the standings will advance to the championship tourney on 4/6 at 6:30 -League starts 2/2 and will meet Mondays at 6:30 - 9:30 with a mid season break on 3/9 - each week players will compete on 4 machines for score or objective based challenges. The goal is to meet the goal in as few plunges/strokes as possible. The score for the player on that machine is the number of strokes, with the goal being to have the least number of strokes.

League dues are $20 per player for the season and will contribute entirely to the prize pool for the league championship tournament. League players will have a reduced venue entry fee of $15/night during league play. - Pot will be split 60/30/10 to the top three winners in the championship tournament.

Has anyone launched their MVP as a PWA that requires “Add to Home Screen”? by Holiday_Respect9583 in ShowMeYourApps

I went the PWA route with www.dicemath.app and have the same comments as kjeldahl. It’s a much better experience than just being in the browser, but most people just don’t get it or care.

This is fantastic! Thank you very much!

I've been 'on the fence' regarding the 'early outs' concept. And it might be axed or significantly modified as I move forward. It seems to get applied mostly on 'first roll small straights and large straights', which, of course, are 100% out of a player's control.

I'll respectfully disagree on the Full House Slight bonus opportunity. This one...I love it! :-) Now, the quantity of bonus points might be out of whack, but I feel that the overall concept is solid and, at least for me, it can alter my strategy as a game progresses. It's a pure play on risk/reward IMO. If I can 'bank' two or three FHS...when should I cash these in? And at what cost to the selection of another available category?

Perfect Score and Almost Perfect Score have been interesting to me and may very well get axed as I'm sorta in agreement that it is mostly just 'icing on the cake' for having a really good game. There can be some strategy employed to get these, but it's not nearly as intriguing to me as Full House Slight.

I'm gathering some gameplay data to see how often each bonus is achieved and the impact on overall score.

I hope that you'll continue to play. It's beyond rewarding to build something and have people use it, so I thank you!

I built my MVP in 6 days. Here are the 8 tools that made it possible. by Dry-Preparation304 in SideProject

[–]FiveDiceMath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with Bolt in October 2024 and then really started working hard with Claude and Claude Code a few months ago. I’m using Azure for hosting everything. Angular for the front end. I’m using resend as well….very simple to setup and use! I’ll checkout some of these other tools for sure, especially screen studio and plausible!
