bans... oooooohhh.. somebody's been stirring up trouble!
Congratulations on the awesome site growth! Happy to see your reach extending to a wider and wider audience.
Huh, definitely did not expect to be mentioned in this article. I'm not sure how I even got all those achievements! I am guessing a lot are collection based??
Anyway, congrats on a great year, OoC! Here's to an even better 2022.
We don't have collection-based achievements on the site for two reasons:
It looks like you just naturally accumulated quite a few achievements from browsing around last year.
Congratulations OOC! Nowadays I barely remember where you came from, since you’ve become my no.1 reference for all things HS. And much of it comes from your great support of WILD, my beloved game mode. Keep up the good work and I’m yours, forever
I'm kinda wondering what kinds of those declined reports actually is.
EDIT. whoops my bad. Happy New Year. Wish this site can always be awesome just like year and year before.
Reports, where no action was taken. Unjustified reports and so on. Sometimes ppl are just salty about someone else's response to them and they report them :) But it's rare.
Oooh I do like me some stats, and oh boy I was taken aback by those number of total views but in all honestly OoC really deserve it. You guys have really jacked up the site with awesome events in recent years and the community itself is respectful and awesome.
I'll happily say this is my favorite site, like ever 🙃
stonks ^^^
Nice!
Congratulations on the growth, y'all. You deserve it! Whenever friends ask about card reveals or deck codes, I direct them this way.
To a relaxing and productive 2022 :)
Congrats Flux and the team on the growth of the site! I hope 2022 will be even better!!!
Oh and apparently i'm the #5 top commenter in 2021? That's surprising. I guess taking part in discussions during every HS card reveal season helped a lot.
Maybe i should get a non-default actual avatar. I was planning on doing this right after i made my account, but kept delaying it lol.
Edit: Got a non-default avatar. (Good 'ol blinkfox, one of my fave cards!)
Okay i just looked at my profile, and noticed that in my profile i say: "You might not see me comment too much, because i'm a bit shy and prefer to "lurk" around, but i gladly take part in discussions about new cards, theory-crafts, and sometimes some other discussions when i find them interesting."
So being the #5 top commenter in 2021 is kinda ironic to me. lol. I guess that HS card reveal seasons still helped a lot, and other than that there must have been plenty of interesting discussions i guess?
Blink Fox is life! 🦊
The amount of unique visitors is amazing, going up really well.
Congrats on the growth, team! I hope 2022 is even better for you and the awesome job you do!
Congrats Flux!!! Very happy to see the site grow
Hearthstone Audio Clips in database is an odd metric to showcase.
Last month as a sort of ninja-update, our database now has audio files for Hearthstone cards and this information is a part of our patch import pipeline so it'll stay up to date. Nothing about it was a planned update, if just sort of happened by accident when making adjustments to some of our datamining tools - a happy little accident as Bob Ross would say.
There are a few cards that are missing audio still, but for the most part, you'll be able to find sounds for new cards when new patches drop! Once we've got most of those figured out, we'll open up a forum thread to collect feedback on sounds that are missing so we can go and weed out the remaining conditions.
I'm excited to have that on the site because it adds more value to our database pages. Once we get Mercenary audio mapped properly, we'll be sure to carry that on over to the Mercenary-specific pages too.
Also, I'd like to skin an audio player instead of relying on the browser-specific ones. Browser ones don't match the site very and they're a bit on the large side :P
I was looking through these recently and had a couple thoughts.
Congrats on all the site success!
