Avatar of AwesomeAtti

I teased the idea of an OTF browser extension. I'm willing to try and create one that can be used to play some OTF games. Before I go into details...

  1. Who's interested in coming up with some OTF Browser Extension ideas and testing the browser extension?
  2. How do you access OTF? Use a react emoji. bp Chess.com mobile app, bb Chrome (desktop), wb Chrome (mobile), bn Safari (desktop), wn Safari (mobile), br Firefox (desktop), wr Firefox (mobile), bq Other

for anyone on mobile, if you go to the clubs tab and find someone who has made a thread on otf you can backdoor into the web version and react

Another idea I have is a treasure hunt. Every day, some OTF topics would be randomly selected. Should you only earn the treasure if you post to it or when you view it? I'm thinking if you vew the topic because I don't want people posting random comments trying to find the the topic.

I think so, viewing is better

I have scoped out the logic and an algorithm.

  • Everyday is different. A topic that contains no treasure today may contain one tomorrow (and vice versa).
  • Everyone shares the same treasure map each day.
  • Only topics in OTF have treasure
  • I'm thinking about a bonus based on the age of the topic
  • For privacy reasons, I will not use a server so there will be some limitations such as: No leaderboard, no trading, but you can share screenshots of your inventory.

I have determined rarity scores for the treasures:

  • Legendary. 1 in 10,000. 0.01% chance.
  • Rare. 1 in 1,000. 0.1% chance.
  • Uncommon. 1 in 100. 1% chance.
  • Common. 1 in 20. 5% chance.
  • 94% of topics will have no treasure.

To all... we need to determine the treasures. I want to keep these secret until people find them... DM me some suggestions. OTF themed treasures are encouraged.
