What is IBT?
IBT is an exclusive Steemit based RPG style game that runs over a series of posts. It takes approx one week to particapate and they run approx once a month.. In between these full tournaments a series of these 'stand alone' quick battle posts will appear approx one a week.
What is the IBT Training Grounds?
The purpose of this post is to allow steemians to have a bit of fun and assist in the ongoing development of the game, in particular fun mini games (single post challenges)
This is the first training ground post, there will be approx one a week until the Next IBT.
Detailed Play Instructions
For this trial you can only play as an Archer.
The Warrior and wizard classes have been disabled.
Quick Summary of attack commands per class are:
Archer attack:
- Quick attack, likely to hit: !onearrow
- Difficult attack, may not hit, but hits for allot: !manyarrows
A Quick attack will generally always land a hit, but the hit may not be enough to win against the foes indicated hit points. Difficult attacks sometimes fail, but generally are enough to win. Sometimes a character called gobbo may attack you, if this happens you must attack again to defeat him, then attack one last time to beat the Stage foe.
Once you post a reply, with your chosen attack command above, just refresh your screen a special type of Dice bot will reply and tell you what you hit for. If your attack exceeded that of the foe you win! and will share in 50% of the SBD raised by this post.
Misc. Commands.
All pickpocket and other Misc attacks have been disabled.
NOTE: All commands are responded to by the IBT bot @wizardzap. For this training ground @wizardzap is testing how we can add item attack bonuses to calculated win or lose for enroled players. To make it easier I have turned the requirement to pay for the lucky dip item off. This code is extremely experimental and may not work at all. By playing in these trials you are helping the development of the next official IBT in a few weeks time.
Anyways have fun, type either: !onearrow or !manyarrows in a reply below and see if you win :) IF your an old hat at playing IBT type !ibtluckdip to see if it works to boost your attack run. Feel free to try a couple of attacks, even if you lose on first attack. I need the test results to help us :) Cheers
Special thanks to @spaceginger for his artistic skills with the Interactive Battle Tournament Image above and @ryivhnn for the new upgoats!. 50% of SBD raised will be shared equally to the winning players. The other 50% from this post will be transferred to @wizardzap for power up.

Lucky you! Obtained item 3: Dagger! +3 to players hit!

Tip: This items extra hit points will be added to your attack score
!onearrow
You quickly draw an arrow and shoot:

the string breaks:oops! Gobbo happened to be walking by at the time and knows youre an easy target, so he attacks..@gobbo
.You have activated gobbo, as an Archer you must use the difficult attack !manyarrows to equal or beat his attack!.. you will see his attack below shortly failure to use the !manyarrows command next will disqualify you from the SBD prize. If your attack score is higher then Gobbos, you got him and get another free attack against the attack foe i.e. kill gobbo and then attack one more time to beat the stage foe and win
Gobbo makes his best attack.

He laughs like a jerk.
The sneaky git hits for a 5.
!manyarrows
OMG! What are you doing? You load your bow ready for a devistating magical shot, but must have got your spells mixed up, instead of enchanting your arrow you turn yourself into a...turd! - you lose a life.
Tip: JOb done! thanks for playing; check if your attack score is great then the foes, if it is you win and will be paid SBD at the post payout. If your foe was gobbo and your score was higher you may attack one more time, it will be classed against the Stage foe
LOL. x3 Oops.

!onearrow
Head shot! Your shot is so perfect:

if anyone saw theyd know you are one bad dawg when equipped with a bow, you pierce the enemy for a hit of 6 points!.
Tip: JOb done! thanks for playing; Check if your attack score is greater then the stage foes posted at the top of this page, if it is you win and will be paid SBD at the post payout.
WTF?
Cheers for the test.
As you have never played in a full IBT(tournament) the bot doesn't know you well enough.. hence the generic response. haha, sorry the narrative is a bit rough..
!manyarrows
You load your bow and prepare for a powerful shot

Pathetic! The string breaks and people watching laugh, ashamed you turn into a coward bird and fly away - you lose a life.
Tip: JOb done! thanks for playing; check if your attack score is great then the foes, if it is you win and will be paid SBD at the post payout. If your foe was gobbo and your score was higher you may attack one more time, it will be classed against the Stage foe
Bad luck! didn't get the foe on the first hit...
...thanks for helping and trying a few commands for testing etc (hopefully you join in the tournament later :))
Hahaha I know its not a high graphics game, but its suppose to be a retro type thing :)
!manyarrows
You load your bow with 3 arrows and shoot

Nice! At least 2 of them fly in the right direction and deal some damage, its a hit of 8 points!.

!onearrow
You quickly draw an arrow and shoot:

the bow made a strange sound as the arrow launches, as if the string nearly broke, but you clip the foe for a hit of 2 points!. FANTASTIC!!! - NOT!!! Sorry! BUT it doesnt count you can only counter attack gobbo with the !manyarrows command
Huh, maybe I shouldn't have had two of them going at the same time! I confused @wizardzap?
Interesting you have found a bug...Should not have triggered anything to do with gobbo..let me see..when you say two at the same time??
Yep, you shouldnt have been playing on other post I left a message to say it was closed. hahaha no issues though, proved the gobbo code kindda working, I just never finished it.
Even so the Gobbo code should have reset as you beat the guy, so it has revealled a bug, will add it to the list. I'll restart the bot now so can have a fresh shot here on this post if your keen.
Done! start a fresh here if you want :)
This pretty cool, you've automated the roll and the bonuses!
Fantastic test! I wasn't sure the gobbo part would even work. Cheers
I think it worked as planned. I shouldn't have done two posts at the same time. Time order
Arrow on post 1 (probably triggered gobbo)
Arrow on post 2 (thought I was still on post 1?)
Arrows for gobbo in post 1

I'll try my unlucky shot! 😆
!manyarrows
Odins Beard Shakens! You load a deadly fire magic arrow into that deady bow-rifle of yours, take an almost too long aim and release in a swift move. You do a large amount of damage, its a hit of 10 points. We can almost hear you mumble too easy... Nice! you needed to hit for 3 and including bonuses from items you hit for 10. You won the fight and may now progress to the next Stage once its posted by @lordnigel
That's likely scuppered me for the next game. Just used all my good luck up now! 🤣
Hahaha true! lets hope its a change in luck instead.
Thanks for playing, looks like the bot worked ok this time around..Phew!
!ibtluckdip
Just try and edit the comment and see if it works OR try again. Sometimes Steemit itself is playing up and the bot misses the comment
I edited it but nothing happened so I'll try a new comment thread :3
!ibtluckydip

Angel Food would trade this to another player... "doesn't taste good" he says.

Wohoo. This is a great idea guys, loving it! Unique ideas like these are what will help steemit grow, not the millions of bidbots lol!
Thanks mate. Please keep an eye out, I run a tournament about once a month and give away approx 30+ Steem. These small comps are for developing the code :)
I deff will be joining. Keep up the good work!
Cool! - thanks mate and great to have you along :)

Sweet work mate :)
You quickly draw an arrow and shoot:

it almost looked like you were a pro (are you secretly practising?), you pierce the enemy for a a hit of 4 points. Nice! you needed to hit for 3 and including bonuses from items you hit for 6. You won the fight and may now progress to the next Stage once its posted by @lordnigel
Ok, so @wizardzap remembers a single item and applies it correctly. It doesn't seem to remember players yet (or it would've mentioned either Doomguy or myself directly) -- or is remembering players only supposed to work after official registration?
At this stage will only remember after official registration. I'm using an old fashioned .ini type approach, so if bot crashes worse case it knows where everyone was at. Moving forward we have two options as database (cryptonik working on) or a variable made up by taking the author of the reply and placing a number on the front...But before I can do this level of code, we have to lock in game play...I'm not a good programmer, so this is taking allot of learning :)

Nice instructions. Gobbo smells bad.

Hmmm, this would take priority of my shiny dagger for +3 from the LuckyDip.
Good point...will make a change here in the text :)
