Here I will keep posted what I'm up to on Runescape, video making and my websites, epicninja.com and sosolid2k.co.uk. So if you're interested you can read what I'm working on and can give feedback suggestions on anything if you want. Below is a list of things I've got plans to do, some may not happen if I decide not to go through with them, but they are things I'll be considering. They are in order I plan to work on them, the top being the most current thing I'm doing. Currently doing - Events Section of Sosolid2k.co.uk/RSMDB Things planned: Small Tasks
Create a new section of the site for events I will be working on a section of the site for weekly events, where a random event will be chosen by the server and the details published on the site for anyone to attend. It will eliminate all the time consuming planning that puts most people off creating events (since it will be automated), and also ensure there will be a different event each week at the same time. Re-coding the challenge section of Sosolid2k.co.uk The challenge section never turned out to be as popular as I think it could be, so I've decided to practically scrap most of what was there and recode it to make it more appealing to use. I've been thinking about what could be improved to increase the number/quality of challenges and entries being made and so far I will likely be adding/altering the following:
Preview of Challenge page in entry period ![]() Max Hits With Melee 3 Done [link] Rest of Zamorak Walks I want to put a LOT of effort into this when I have the time to work on it. I have a basic storyline in my head, but I need to sit and write up a script for it so I know what I'm doing when I log in to record it. I'm thinking about making this into a MIVE (where you choose your path with annotations, and try to stop Zamorak) but it would take more time and effort to do it properly. The outcome should be more than worth it though if I do it well. I would like it to be a longish story, and have a few different paths you can take ----------------------- If you have any suggestions/comments about anything I'm working on feel free to post em

Awesome stuffs. Yeah I never really got into the whole challenge section of your site. I would really like to if it were made easier and more fair. I would own the "how many Zilyana's can you kill in one trip solo" ![]() As for 99 slayer get to it buddy!!! I was gonna beat you to 99 but then I decided I could beat you to 99 Summoning instead ![]() GL with your sites and st00f! |

I could do vids but I need to work on my sites. I can either get a regular job which I'm more than likely gonna hate like most people do, or try and make a living from my vids and stuff. I can easily do it by uploading all my vids to Machinima, but I much prefer uploading them to my own channel in higher quality, so I'm trying to build up my sites so that I can make a living from those and continue uploading to my own channel. I could do both, but I just find uploading to Machinima makes creating the vids less fun. Half the comments become hate, vids get 1 star bombed by people who don't like it etc, not to mention the upload process is a pain a lot of the time, taking weeks to actually upload, vids getting pulled for copyright concerns and stuff. If I could get Youtube partnership then I could get back to making vids right away, but they seem to hate RS vids for some reason, they haven't given a single RS player partnership for like over a year? So I'm just working on sites, then hopefully try upload some more new videos to my own channel and just keep applying for partnership. Surely they can't keep rejecting me forever lol. And thaaankks Did a few tasks last night lol, had abyssal demons then got another task for 199 of em So some nice tasks. Around 700k xp till 99 so getting close now ![]() And darkkill65 an SQL server is basically just the database where a lot of the sites data is kept. Because I have shared hosting I have to share the same server with other websites, so the server is more likely to be overloaded with connections either by having too many people using it, or someone connecting to it wrong in their code (like permanent connections etc). I'm not sure how much I've spent atm lol, I bought a bunch of sets of vesta when it first came out, that cost a bomb, then one or two pking weapons. I still have like 3/4 of the weapons left to do so still need more sets of vesta. Then all the super str/prayer pots too :p I'll probs camp at abyssal demons for a few days watching movies/tv shows on Youtube or something lol. like 10-15 mil should cover the rest of it. Had a new idea for challenges. Adding a new option so that you can set an entry fee to the challenge. Like set the challenge so that it costs 5 Challenge Points to enter, so you'll have 5 points deducted and added to the winnings pool. So if you win a challenge that costs 5 CP to enter and 5 other people entered, you would get an extra 25 CP for winning it on top of the regular winnings. You'll be able to set the entry fee as either: Free, 5, 10, 25, 50 or 100, so you can basically bet challenge points on winning ^.^ Damn this challenge status updating script is gonna be a bitch to code ![]() |

The links, images, text etc is displayed with HTML, that's just the basic language to display stuff on web pages, it doesn't really do anything else. The harder bit to code is the PHP which is the one that allows a single page to display different content. Like on epicninja, there is just 1 webpage to play games on. Where it says "?g=spark" in the title, it's telling the webpage which row to get the data from that's held on the database. You use PHP to grab that value from the URL, request the info for that game from the database, put all the data into their own variables (just a word to store the values, like $game_name, $description, $controls etc) and display them in the right places on the one page. Without PHP I'd have to manually create hundreds of HTML documents, rather than 1. HTML looks like:
PHP looks like:
Most of the PHP is easy once you know it, just the bit I'ma have to do to check the status of all challenges and update them, restrict certain parts of them etc is probably gonna be a pain

Lies! Working a little more on the view challenge page, started on the layout of the voting period, not finished yet but should probably look something like this once it's done. ![]() Gonna have the different videos loaded with ajax when you click view so you won't have to reload the page to view each entry and rate it. They will be ordered by which has the least number of views, so that each entry gets as fair a number of views/ratings as possible. |

No sign of her being a partner 0.0 No partner honors, banners, ads etc ![]() And Machinima would contact you, you need a lot of subs/views for it. |

I don't think Goingcrazy is a Youtube partner. She does have a certain Youtube account type that isn't available anymore though. Her type of account let's her upload videos past the normal limit, that's how she could do her WGS walkthrough from the start straight to the end. |

Thanks c: And ya it's fun sometimes lol, then other times it's a huge pain in the ass (usually when something won't work and you've tried everything to try fix it XD). Got the basics of creating a new challenge and entering it done, still need to work a bit more on a spam filter though to make sure as few useless entries/challenges get through as possible, yey more fun with Youtube's API -.- Once that's all working properly I'll start on the viewing and voting on entries. Should be easy enough to do that. |

It could possibly be merged somehow with the video, guides, and game section so you could have a few different 'skills' that you could level up by using various sections of the site (E.G. Video Making, Guide Making, Gaming and Challenger Levels).












i think people look in machinima for xbox games and other games. Ive been trying to get my vids up on machinima for ever how do you do it? And i gratz on 98 slayer good luck with 99.
