In fact, Kovaze is the only business in the world where you can walk in, not buy anything, criticise (and sometimes attack) the staff and still be allowed to stay. Respectful feedback is always being heard. Good suggestions get put on my to-do list, bad suggestions get filtered out. And yes, everyone has bad ideas, including myself (See: Rooms)! To users who are constantly providing feedback, thank you for helping the site grow in the right direction! 💕

They will reset on the 1st of each month and will display the biggest players of the month. The top 50 will receive Vending Tokens to spin the vending machine for freeeee! Happy Gaming!

It's still set to soft launch tonight with a test group selected through a random draw (possibly on livestream, will delve more into this later). This will allow me to witness the game in a controlled environment to make any last minute changes. If needed, more test groups will be reaped into Royale. The game will then open to the public in the coming days, sooner if things go smoothly. Thank you all for your patience!! 💘

This was quite a big update so please excuse any bugs and let me know when you find them! If you have any questions, ask away :)For now I'm keeping the game size at 16, once I'm sure there are no bugs I'll increase it to 18 and add the potential for 3 tribes THINGS TO NOTE: - Your Tribe Morale = the average hunger of your tribe - The penalty depends on your Tribe Morale AND the weather (Being hungrier during hotter weather = higher penalty) - To obtain water, you have to search the water well (Top left square). This is the only location that doesn't require drinking water to search. - To fish for food, select one of the bottom locations in the sea. Chances of successful fishing = 33%. - 1 idol and 1 snake is hidden in the forest. Getting bitten by a snake will cause your tribe to lose 100 water and 100 food. - The amount of water you drink to hunt for food/idols depends on the weather (Celsius). If the weather is 22 degrees, you must drink 22 water. Shoutout to Arikoman for inspiring this Outcasted update! Note: I'll make the UI prettier later

will be dropping tonight - I'm just cleaning up some final bugs and it should be good to go :) #VeryExcited!

Hey all! This will be the first ever Diamonds Giveaway on the website! As you know, our very own bomberv is on Australian Survivor and the trailer dropped today. That is an amazing milestone for us as a community, and I can't help but think how many more Kovazians could be on Reality TV. This community has been around for two decades, we have thousands of Reality TV fanatics, and a network that extends beyond Kovaze. We have so much influence over casting producers, yet previous sites have neglected to capitalise on this potential. Most of us dream to be on Reality TV, and it's about time these producers know that we have a massive community wanting to be represented. That starts with showing support for those of us that make it on the show, so for that reason, I'll be giving 💎50 to users who express their support for Tez on the instagram trailer: https://www.instagram.com/p/DTpBoi5kx7Q/ • Using an alt is fine but please don't make new instagram accounts - we don't want to look like spam! • The comment can be anything that supports Tez, Otherwise, #TeamTez works 😊 • Once that's done, DM your Kovaze username to Kovaze.official and you will receive your diamonds (Your account will not be shared with anyone including the mods, only I have access to the instagram account). • Don't delete your comment! • Once per user • Ends in 24 hours Note: I know some people prefer to keep their personal lives private, and that's totally okay! Please don't feel pressured to do this if you don't feel comfortable, there will be more giveaways like this in the future :) - This year, we will come up with more strategies to get the attention of casting producers. We want Kovazians to be regulars on Reality TV - And we won't take no for an answer!

Do we want each ranked game mode to have it's own elo, or would we prefer an overall elo score?

thought I'd drop a surprise game whilst we wait Royale! This will function similar to Frenzy but with comps (and similar to Frookies for those who remember!) The game just needs some bug fixes which I'll complete tonight, and then she should be ready!

Looking like the biggest Jackpot yet! - Also, Line and 2 Lines prize has been increased, Corners has been slightly decreased.

I was tinkering around with something and then oops... we're all orange flames now! You should be able to just put your other flame back on :-)

If you can find it and comment it in the next 5 minutes, I'll start a surprise bingo Edit: @Bagel found it, the mail feature suggested by xcharliex

Hi everyone! I’ll be sharing with you all the format for Royale today. The trailer will drop soon, where you’ll first lay eyes on this beauty. First, an announcement from me: With the Royale format now 99% complete and development progressing into the deeper stages, I’ll be subjecting myself to solitary confinement starting tomorrow for at least 7 days. I will be focusing all of my energy into completing this game, so I will be MIA from my regular admin duties, but Head_Mod will have the ability to contact me in an emergency via a discreet outlet. I will select one of the moderators (not Head Mod) to be acting admin whilst I am in solitary. * THE ROYALE FORMAT Enrolment - Enrolment will open in cycles. During these cycles, users can nominate to join the games. Once each Royale game is completed, players will be randomly distributed into games. There will be 75-100 players in each game. Bloodbath (The culling) - When the game begins, you will have 30 minutes to decide whether to join the bloodbath or run away (if you’re offline, you will run away by default). Those who join the bloodbath will be in there for the next hour. Here, weapons will be given out that must be fought for in group fights. If 7 people want to grab the arrows, they must have a group fight for it. During this time, those who ran away will be randomly teleported to one of 24 other locations. Locations - The map is a 5x5 grid. The bloodbath takes place in the center. You can move to a location next to you by clicking on the map grid, which will cost you thirst points. However, the map doesn’t show where each location is — as it’s randomised every game. You will have to use information and memory to navigate. Locations include: Waterfall, Forest, Cave, Desert, etc. Each location will have its own significance, or item popups. You will *only* see people in your location, and their messages. You cannot see what was typed before you joined a location. You will not know who’s in which location besides your own. Information is key! Items - There will be different items in the game, such as arrows for shooting a target, an energy drink, a GPS tracker, a medkit, etc. Food and Water - Food will be obtained through popups, like all items in the game. Water depletion makes it slower for you to move around the map. The lower you are on food, the more weakened your comp scores become. Food can be shared between players - however, the map will be riddled with poisonous foods that will cause immediate death. The person who picks up the poisonous item will know it’s poison, but the player they send it to will not. Be careful who you accept kindness from ;) Sleeping - For 8-10 hours a day, you are able to sleep in a camouflage tent. You cannot be attacked by other players during this time. However, once your slumber is over, you will be out in the open. Fighting - Players can fight other players in the same location as them. If your friend is being attacked, you will have the option to join the fight with them, and add a small % of your score to their score. But if your friend loses, you will all lose health as well! Death - If you reach 0 health, you will die. Winner - Be the last alive. * If you have any questions or suggestions regarding the format, please share them now before my departure!

Yes. - 1 game will run at a time, people will have many days to enrol for the next one - The game will start with or without 100 people

Firstly, I am bursting with enjoyment to show you all this game 😍 Some of you may have guessed already, but we did in fact commence the first play test of the game. I tried selecting a balanced cast so I can see the game play out as realistically as possible. You may have also noticed that you can't view the game yourself and this is intentional, I'm making sure to not spoil anything just yet 😉 The reactions I've received to the UI alone have been amazing and exactly what I'd hoped for. I wanted the visual experience of this game to be part of the game itself and I think people are going to be shocked in the best way. There may be some more play tests in the future, and if so I'll post a future update. Additionally, I wanted to host a live Q&A sometime, to answer questions regarding this game, moderation, etc. So be on the look out for that as well!
