Whoaaaa :scream: This is so cool ! I’m speechless, thank you so much Roblox for making cool stuff for devs!

Btw if I take a guess the 3rd item on the image kind of looks like a developer version of the roblox award cubes that get sent to star creators when they reach a milestone

Oh also sorry if not a big developer but what is a MAU ? I Don’t really understand :sweat_smile:

Where is the link to the forum again? Is it in the inbox on the dev forum or my account inbox?

Now, how does one achieve this developer longsword?

And also, big thing.
What if the owner of the game doesn’t add the people who worked on it. That would be VERY frustrating. Also, what if the owner adds all his friends (that didn’t contribute to the game developer)?

How will you prevent users from listing random people, like their friends, as developers on the survey?

The crowns itself are very good looking and gives a major incentive to work hard and earn them! Can’t wait to see what the third one is, looks like a Wii.

One issue I have is how come I can’t access my MAU? My game has been created for close to a year although I’m unable to download my Monthly Game Stats Data. I’m able to download my Monthly Revenue Data but not my Monthly Game Stats Data.

If thoose are the criteria needed, then people could use bots for their games to get the crowns, and then overload the servers

When MAU is calculated, does it take the sum of all the games you have contributed to?
Or does do you only get rewarded based off the top game you have contributed to?

Edit: Crowns will be rewarded based on the game that has the highest MAU.

Wow, I appreciate that they actually made something for smaller/upcoming developers to be recognized and awarded for their work with this phase. Looking forward to these.

I only see MAU from 2 months ago.
Although you probably need to reach some audience to be able to see it, I guess…

I doubt this will ever pertain to me, but I am curious; what’s the criteria needed to be eligible? Currently I’m unable to find any information, but does a Dev or game need to reach a specific number of visits before they’re considered to meet said criteria?

Confirming this here, it isn’t properly centered even on a default head!

Roblox devs have an eye for this kind of thing, so hopefully it gets fixed :wink:

Edit: After noticing my reply got a bit of traction, I felt like it’s necessary to emphasize how badly centered this is.

Here it is in studio on a blocky R15 avatar.

Barely even on the head… How about Rthro? After all, Roblox has been likely focusing their newer hats to fit Rthro instead right?


Oh…

Ideally, Roblox should just make the HatAttachment position 0, -0.25,0. That seems to fit perfectly on the standard head without any issue.

Update 2 :

Great news, it has been centered :smiley:

The attachment position is now at 0, -0.25, 0 as I posted in this reply in my previous update.

Kinda sad that I literally have under 100 visits. And sadly my computer broke down so I’m stuck on mobile for a long time, so I can’t develop any games. But great job ROBLOX, These crowns look amazing and I’m happy that hard working Devs are rewarded!

Brookhaven could also, because as we saw it shot up in popularity within a year of it being released, now being the most concurrents as of right now, whereas it took 6+ years for adopt me to reach 400K+ concurrents! So Brookhaven and/or adopt me both have very good chances of getting it.

Thank you for caring about small developers!

However, is there any prevention from more than 5 accounts joining from the same IP? I feel like unless there is preventions, people will use alt accounts to get it.

Does this mean that if someone get 100 players every month they get this?

So does this count?

I am so confused!!!

EDIT: I emailed Roblox and I qualified!

There’s no reason for them to add extra protection. Sure, maybe some players will make 100 alt accounts to get the gold crown, but every other crown will be simply too much accounts to bot, and if you use that many accounts you would likely get picked up by the system and terminated.

Is this only for one game or can multiple games add up the MAU for a MAU total?
