Key Camping

Key camping is a form of griefing in which a player continually activates one or more keys -- consequently disappearing the keys' lockblock counterparts -- for no greater purpose than to prevent other players from advancing. It is the room designer's responsibility to discourage this practice.

This key is completely unprotected. The griefer may jump up and down to his heart's content and force the other player to wait indefinitely.

With as few as nine empty spaces between himself and the first of two right-facing arrow deflectors, a griefer may break through to the key and get down to business.

Even with four arrows preventing a full-speed, unassisted charge, the griefer may still drop directly down to the key's position from above and begin camping.

Covered from above and with an adequate number of deflectors on the right, the key is safe.

On the sixth space up from the bottom, the key is out of reach.

Hello all :)

I have started this blog because I enjoy the game Everybody Edits and have played for long enough now to think that some of my experiences may be of use to other players.

I discovered Everybody Edits through this post on reddit.com and gradually became hooked. At first, it reminded me of such collaborative diversions as Drawball and Just Letters, both in its potential for group creation and griefer destruction. Over time, it has developed its own style, seeming to move away from pure art exhibition and toward structured mini-game creation. Naturally, the advent of locked rooms has helped to temporarily secure the functional integrity of such games, at least in levels wherein winners do not obtain the Edit code and proceed to ruin everything that OP has already established. These games have become so creative and personally interesting, in fact, that I no longer explore the aimless sandboxes on the left that were originally the only options available.

I hope to be of service to you all in your enjoyment of Everybody Edits and look forward to reading any questions and comments you may have about this unique game. :)
