You will never believe this!
I am gonna blow the lid off the great EOS misdirection!
That's right. You may have been following the excitement over EOS, the next fantastic project from the great Dan Larimer.
Well I can exclusively reveal that EOS is not some distributed OS as we had all been led to believe. I have exclusive insider information that this has all been a masterful sleight of hand.
Instead I have managed to gain an incredible peek at what EOS really is.
Yes! A game, harnessing the incredible distributed nature of the blockchain. Look at the amazing footage I managed to grab below. Incredible cutting edge graphics boosted by the incredible power of the Etherium network.
Isn't this incredible? I tell you what. I am ALL IN!!
Alright, alright. I am having a giggle. I just really wanted to draw the EOS logo in an animation. It's not really a game :0) you can find out much more on EOS in this splendid post here
You know what would be really cool?
Make a simple old-school style arcade game like this and connect it to a Steem payout system -- highest daily/ weekly scores get X% cut of the payout, 2nd gets Y% cut, 3rd gets Z%, etc. (could go all the way down the line to the worst score, or throw out extreme outliers).
I'm pretty sure you could code the payout system to be completely automated (not entirely sure, since I don't know the least bit about programing) and we could have a Steemit account devoted to providing the daily/ weekly payout through "donation posts" -- ideally these posts would also provide some value besides being the bank-roll for the next payout (maybe they could provide stats for the different users over the last x, y, and z periods and have special bonus prizes for monthly leader-boards or for holding a top scoring position for x amount of day, etc).
The account owner could (and should) get a % cut of the post payout and the rest can be distributed out to the "gamers" and a bit to bonus prizes.
You know you really could be on to something there! I actually think there would be quite an interest in something like that. Everyone loves retro games. All that's needed is some pesky developers!!
I'm game...for the game playing part :)
It's all about the game!!
Game or a I power down! Not really, but I really want the game :(
It looks a fabby game!Dont power down! Not till steem hits the ten dollar mark anyway! :O)
Thats a fantastic idea. but please make a game like i played when i was young. just a jotstick and 1 firebutton.. Not like the consoles of today... i must think to long to know what button to press.. I had a C64 and amiga and atari.. maybe we can vote for a game... mine = The Great Giana Sisters
Agree on the simplistic controls.
I wouldn't mind anything from Pac Man to Donkey Kong (arcade classic) to Tetris to Frogger to Galaga. I have to admit, I've never heard of The Great Giana Sisters. I might have played it before without knowing the name of it, though.
Man giana sisters is a classic. Looks like Mario. If you search it on internet you find it easily. I am curious if you played it. But indeed it must be a simple game with simple controls.. https://classicreload.com/giana-sisters.html
Just looked it up...and, you're right, it looks a lot like Mario. I never played it, but I'd definitely give it a go because I LOVED Mario as a kid and still enjoy playing it to this day.
Ok let me know.. There are so much classic games nowadays you can just play in your browser. what was you most favorite one?
My favorite would have to be Super Mario 3, Mario World in a close second.
I bought Super Mario All-Stars for Super Nintendo, around the time that it came out, and probably got somewhere around 1,000 hours of play out of it!
Ha I'll buy it when you make the full game!
Damn, that could be a loooong time lol!!
I believe that Dan learned with Bitshares that a better product does not mean success. In a way, Bitshares was akin to the Sega Dreamcast, it was way to advanced for people to utilize it or understand why it was important. I believe Dan engineered the Token drop of EOS the way he had, in a way to garner traction of big money, before it can even be traded....
Dan poised the token to probably have a 5 billion Market cap at launch, which will turn it into a successful better framework for coins that has the money to overtake ethereum entirely.
I would be quite happy if it overtook ethereum. For some reason I have never gotten onboard with that coin
Same. I put a lot of money in Bitshares way back when it was still Protoshares. And not a dollar in Ethereum because I didn't believe in the necessity for low level programing. But with all these ICOs coming out utilizing ethereum, you will see much longer transaction times. As compared to Graphene which has unlimited instant transactions.
EOS will make make Bitshares flourish, but EOS will allow Graphene to shine in general.
EOS...financial S.O.S.
Hehe, many many things!
Ahhh that explains a lot. Maybe my Pokecoins are actually Bitcoins. Maybe I can transfer the 100 coins from my Pokemon Wallet to my Bitfinex account :)
You should, what is it they say... if you believe it hard enough it will happen lol!! :O)
Indeed. Pokecoins are also a digital currency and who knows it has powers to evolve themselves into the Bitcoin blockchain. In the end evolving is what Pokemons do all the time :)
HAhahaha, I can completely see it! The future is pokecoin!
Me too. Probably they will arrange a nice isolated white room for me in the nearest mental hospital here If I say I traded all my Ethereums for Pokecoins and received a free Pokeball to all the coins in It :)
Hehe, yes you could have a point!!
What?? There is no crypto pokecoin yet - unbelievable :)
Haha, this must be addressed!!
Is it a "game" like Mogul was a "game?" As in...it's just a scam?
Dammit. Tricked again!
Lol, games, the new name for scams!
:O)
lolol nice marketing tactic
:)
Steem On
Hehe, it would be!! Cheers dude, full steem ahead!!
"Full Steem Ahead!!"
I like it!
:)
My favourite steemit saying :O)
Is that Galaga!? Im going all in on this ICO hahaha
I was thinking galaga too! I was actually pumped about playing it until he joked about how "good" the graphics are. Well played @meesterboom ...
It was totally inspired by the old games like that that I used to play!! Hehe! All in!!
Yeahh galaga, loved it
that's 10/10 would loop again animation! incredible
Yay!! Cheers matey chops!! :O)
Power up with POW and not DPOS! Oh man that's gonna cut deep, real deep :)
Hehe, it might just a little :O)
Congratulations dear friend @meesterboom this work is amazing, thank you very much for sharing
Thank you very much for saying so @jlufer!
The logo works perfect for a 8bit spaceship game, maybe it will even run on the EOS blockchain for real. =D
It does doesnt it. I started out just drawing it and then thought whoaaah, that would be a great graphic in a game!
It absolutely does!
You mean it will be an Epic Old 90s Space Invader? Yes im 100% sure that's it!
This post received a 42% upvote from @randowhale thanks to @meesterboom! For more information, click here!
When I saw that EOS ship shoot up all those other puny cryptocurrency's, I felt amazing.
Thank you.
Hehe, Cheers man!!
Hahah, thanks for the laugh @meesterboom! Funny stuff :P Keep ém coming!!
Your welcome dude!! :0)
I'm not a gamer , only know pac-man.
So what's the aim of this game ?
And who is Ernie ? :-))
The aim of the game is destruction of the aliens!!
Hehe, Ernie'sole sausages was my initial animation guessing the meaning behind EOS
ok, now I understand this,
and I see that Camel-chart you mentioned lately in the btc/usd 30 min.
Only one leg with a jumping-pin under. Hump the camel.
PS: Aliens gonna take over anyway, be carefull. :-)
Thats the stuff, hump that camel!!
Glad that EOS malarkey is all cleared up now ;O)
Eum , right , I'll find my answers in time, I presume.
Haha , first a beer, cheers !!
Oh yes, a beer always solves any problem!! :OD
Thanks for your advice.
Tommorow I'm gonna shop at the brewery.
Haha, thanks for your readings !
Thank you for posting @meesterboom.
Lovely animation......a great spoof......
Have you joined Slack and #tech?
You know we are sitting on pins and needles....waiting for information and you delivered. ^_^
All the best to you and yours. Cheers.
I havent @bleujay. I really should. I have so little time I probably wouldnt get much from it!
Hehe, we can all look forward to the game! :O)
For posterity.......it will be something big someday and you can say you were in at the first at Slack......
Really not much happening there....just saw it as a historical moment...dan was there for queries and such and many Steemians.
Cheers.
I am on the telegram thing! I have saw Dan answering stuff there
It will be huge I am sure!
Good....did not want for you to miss out on anything. . ^_^ .
Cheers.
And a hearty cheers to you too @belujay!
I am getting some as soon as it hits the top shelf! I am starting to have a feeling steemit is just a big ploy to advertise EOS. One huge clusterfuck!
Hahah, that would be an awesome master plan wouldnt it!
That's what I'm taking about... :)
Hehe, yeah!! :O)
HAHA, they will raise 10 billion dollars with that video intro :)
In that case would it be cheeky to ask for even 0.0001% I would be happy with that :0D
I'M ALL IN LOL
Yeah, ALL IN!! :0)
Funny. I am going to kill spam like this... Can you create a good example gif like that for my big looming project reveal?
Sorry for the short notice, but it's gonna be big tomorrow... about 20 hours from now. Here's my pathetic ability in making imagery! LOL.
https://steemit.com/steemit/@uruiamme/hey-anyx-i-want-to-propose-cheetah-bot-version-2-to-improve-steem
Aw dude I wish I could, but it takes me quite a long time!
I quite like that logo above!
sick anim8ion m8 8/8
Cheers mate!
So it's not really a game? Well, that's ok cause I'm not much of a gamer. Wait a minute. They really do need a blockchain in the gaming arena. Well, maybe we keep that quiet. Let's concentrate on Steemit.
Hehe, yeah let them get on with it. It would probably be too difficult to do those amazing graphics anyway :O)
Ooh, Centipede in InterSpace. I'd probably STILL get a 178. Love it.
Heheh, Yeah, old game tastic!
YES! This clears it up!
Yay, glad to cut through the chaff!!
Much 1980's.
So video.
Flashbacks.
So doge! Cheers dude!
Abaolutely love it :-) Another laugh out loud post and some retro gaming to boot (is that a saying) as usual absolutely on the money :-)
There aint much better than old style retro games! It was gonna be like defender at first but the EOS logo was more suited to up and downy action!
I love the POW powerup. Proof of Work maybe? lol jk!
You're a much better Galaga player than me!!
Oh yeah, that would be magic. It is most definitely Proof Of Work. Thats my story and I am sticking to it! ;O)
HAHA That's funny! I think many of us believe all of this is just a game :-) But wht is life like without feasts and circuses?
Life is naught without these things!! I agree!! Hear Hear!! :OD
Thanks for the giggle... upvoted please follow back @tuakanamorgan
Well, I will check out your blog but I aint promising a follow. Thank you for your comment though! :O)
cool thanks
Cool!
Cheers! :O)
Whaaat?? This is nuts! I completely love it!! I want to offer you my help to develop the visuals of the proyect, I bet it can look AWESOME!
Count me in!!
It's incredible! The incredible power of blockchain fuelled graphics!! :OD
Doesnt matter that you didnt made a game: Your animations are something else :P
Cheers dude! I love em!!
The love is visible. Keep it up and I will keep visiting you everytime I can!
I will try my best for you! Weeee! :O)
Thank you bro. For me wheeeeeee
:O)
Very cool.
Cheers man, I thought so too!!
I knew it. It's End of Space, it's gonna destroy everything!
Yeah!! End of Space is coming!!! :0D
OH MY GLOB :O IT IS A GAME!! I imagine the enemy spacecrafts as tiny grunt tokens that the revolutionary platform will crush. It's great of you to expose the true nature of this, dude! Boom has already bellowed, and I shall not accept any other explanation for what EOS is other than this. Not even from Dan himself!
Quite right!!! I believe we should march upon Dan central and demand answers!!! :0)
He better have his security system on CONSENSUS because we are barreling through the front door and demanding
cakeer, cake :/Sorry, everytime I see EOS I quit reading and go back to the beginning of the loop. You'll have to put a BREAK statement in there somewhere.
Ha!!! Hooray for old school!! ;o)
What's with that 5th tag anyways man?
LOL
It was from this one!!
Oh man
LOL!!!!
I wondered how it was connected and what I missed and figured you are way too sharp for a mistake or random thing without a meaning lol.
My latest practical off grid tip / tool is up if you have interest in a nice affordable pocket saw!
I was just looking at it!
Yeah, I didnt want to offend real diehard EOS'rs by using their tag so used that instead :O)
I'm even more convinced I'll have to invest now!
All in!!!
:0)
Nice post
thank you for good posting
