RoF Blog

[Velzerat]

Here's a link to the blog.​

Now with a real domain!

I've created a RoF blog for writings/information/statistics about RoF. It's just somewhere to dump the things that I find interesting or worth talking about. It'll probably mostly be about "the good old times" (e.g. classic maps, mapmakers, features, etc.) as well as various statistics and observations.

Yesterday I posted an analysis/look back at Rooted, in my post "Classic RoF Maps: Rooted", and just now I published the first part of a two-part analysis of RoF's economy and wealth distribution: "The Richest Player: Big Data - Part One".

I'll post more when I feel like it, but there may be weeks or months without any posts-- I post when I actually care about something enough to make a post about it. I hope it's at least a bit interesting for other people, too!

Fixed, thanks! When I copied it from excel I apparantly didn't copy the first 2 characters, so got 4 instead of 2.4



I've posted a new one in which I calculated all of the Cookies in circulation and all the players to have ever joined RoF. Link:

Today marks three years since the map Hikari to Yami, so I've written a "Classic RoF Map" about it. A lot more statistics/analysis in this one than usual. Link:

I've published a new blog post, showcasing the top 10 most played maps on RoF. It's the first part of a two-part (or hopefully three-part) series on RoF maps data.

I've posted a new blog post. This time, not a statistical analysis nor a "classic rof map", but logs of a "historic even"-- that time someone accidentally deleted RoF. You can read it here.

New blog post is up, about how to earn cookies on RoF.

New blog post! About silverfish and airpockets and maps.

I wrote another new blog post because of this suggestion. It should clear up everything about Ascension Tokens, Cookies, why Supercookies/Ironman/Prestige will not be re-added and why you can't convert cookies to tokens or vice versa. Link here!

I've saved over 60 books from the old Rituals of Fire Library and other places and put them all on my blog. You can read them here: https://rofblog.com/2016/08/31/preserving-masterpieces/
