A Note About BOFC / SimCinema
by Lee Tistaert


Many of you might have a few questions on your mind, so I thought I'd clear them up here. Jason, who runs the technical end of BOFC (and all of SimCinema), hasn't been around much since Christmas and so I haven't been able to talk to him much since then. There is a database that BOFC is edited through, which allows us to input titles for the challenges and control the season schedule (putting it at display). Only Jason knows how to manage the database, and so updates/notices for BOFC have been fairly sketchy recently.

For the Barbershop 2 weekend, I wasn't sure whether or not Catch that Kid was meant to be involved for BOFC. The title was in our BOFC database but the system did not allow me to score that challenge. As a result, I have not scored that weekend yet (I have access to score challenges, but can't edit anything else), and was going to wait until I heard from Jason to avoid problems.

At some point, Jason set up the schedule for the new season to run from February 6 - April 30, and the schedule will be available (in proper layout) once I hear back from him. Right now you can access the individual movies for those challenges through the pull-down menu at BOFC (next to the "Holiday Season" link), but I do not have the ability to create an official schedule page right now.

Adding to that, there are some top players from the Fall Season whose prizes have not been granted yet. That, along with the prizes for the Holiday Season, will be arranged once I hear from Jason (whenever that may be).

Regarding SimCinema, I've heard about revenue problems and various things from players, and that is also Jason's ballpark and something I don't know anything about (in terms of how to fix it). Between this and BOFC, I apologize for the confusion and any inconveniences that may have resulted, but please bare with me and be patient until it can all be sorted out. Thanks.
