Roblox Developers' Journal

Are you an epic bloxxer? Are you welcoming people to Pwnsville daily? Yes? That’s what we thought! We know that most Robloxians are awesome at bloxxing and want to capture video footage of the most epic blox by sword in ROBLOX history!

We want to see ultimate Pwnage, but we also want to make sure you’re safe – so please use either the Knights of the Splintered Sky Sword and Shield set or the Knights of Redcliff Sword and Shield set in your video.

How to Enter

1. Make a video in a ROBLOX game where you epically blox someone! The video must include the Knights of the Splintered Sky Sword or the Redcliff Sword somewhere in there.
2. Upload your video to YouTube and tag it “Pwnsville” and “ROBLOX”.

You have the rest of the month to work on your video. Then, starting on Wednesday, June 1st the judges – Telamon, ReeseMcBlox, Builderman and myself – will start watching your videos. We’re each going to pick one winner. That’s four winners total.

Once you’ve uploaded the footage of your epic blox, start generating hype! Tweet about it, post it on facebook, get your friends to tweet about it, or make a billboard with your youtube link! We’re going to watch the videos that we’ve heard the most about first!

The prize for the 4 winning videos will be 1000 ROBUX and a Telamon’s Mystery Box. The winners will be announced on or before June 8th, 2011!

Questions?

ReeseMcBlox told me that you guys are full of questions – so here are some preemptive answers:

- Submissions must be uploaded by noon Pacific, Wednesday, June 1st, 2011.

- There is no entry prize (sorry!).

- Up to 4 players can be listed on the description or credits as the ‘team’ who made the movie. They will each get 1000 ROBUX and a box if the video wins.

- You can make as many entries as you like – but you should focus your promotion efforts to get a lot of views and favorites.

- It doesn’t have to have sound, but I always like some epic music in the background of my battle scenes.

- If win but you already have Telamon’s Mystery Box then good for you! There is not a replacement prize.

- You can’t post a YouTube link on ROBLOX but you can say your username there so people can search for you. “Search Brighteyes on YouTube!”

Remember to tag your video with “pwnsville” and “ROBLOX”. We’re looking forward to checking out your awesome videos.

We are pleased to announce that ROBLOX Cards are now available at participating Walmart stores in the United States. To celebrate the launch of our Walmart ROBLOX Cards – we are offering the exclusive Knights of the Splintered Sky Sword and Shield set to everyone who redeems a Walmart ROBLOX Card in May. We will continue to offer new exclusive items to users who purchase their ROBLOX Cards at Walmart each month – so check back again next month for a new exclusive item!

For those of you not familiar with prepaid cards – here’s how they work:

You purchase a $10 ROBLOX Card at Walmart, GameStop or one of our other retail partners. Don’t know where your nearest store is? Check out our handy store locators here.

Once you have your card, you can login to ROBLOX and go to www.roblox.com/gamecard. Scratch off the section on the back of the card that hides the secret code needed to activate your card. The code on the back of the card can only be used once so be sure not to purchase a card if the back is already scratched off. Enter the code and click redeem. POW! You’re ready to spend your ROBLOX credits on Robux or Builder’s Club.

With the wizard tower finally within their grasp the Korbloxians descend upon it with great fury! The hordes of Korbloxian controlled zombies will spell the end for the Wizards of Robloxia. The question remains – can the Wizards hold them down until the Knights arrive? But that is trying to predict what is going to happen. For now, we will have to contend with seeing what the Korbloxians are bringing to the war!

 

Spiked Korblox Arm Bracer – Used to unleash the Korbloxian vengeance, this spiked bracer comes in pairs. With its lightness and speed, this is deadly on the arms of any wild Korbloxian.

 

 

 

 

Korblox Tripmine – The Korbloxian lands are secluded and fortified, not with walls but with mines. All over freezing mountains these mines are carefully sprinkled to catch the unwanted intruder. Touching these mines sets off ghastly flames engulfing anyone and everyone around.

 

 

 

 

Korblox Berserker’s Claymore – Crafted using their mythic arts, this powerful claymore is as deadly as it is heavy. With its ability to go into berserker mode, this blade makes its twice as powerful at the cost of the wielders health.

 

 

 

 

DeathSpeaker’s Zombie Creator – The Korbloxians tainted this once powerful Wizard dagger with their own blood, twisting it to their will. With its swiftness and power, it turns any unwary victim of the Korbloxians into a Zombie to do his or her bidding.

 

 

 

Please discuss the new gear items in the forums.

We’re taking another step towards 100% player satisfaction! This time we are testing out an ideas and suggestions system. We’d like you to test it out with us. Let us know how you feel about the ideas that are already there and maybe post a new idea or suggestion.

In general it’s better to search and add your voice to an existing idea than to make a duplicate idea. The goal is to build power behind the most desired ideas!

Here is the link again – Ideas and Suggestions for ROBLOX.
