It's been a while since my last discussion, so it's time to make a new one. The changes have been mostly positive, however since then one (now former) staff member has left the server.

We've made some improvements to the "Candy Crush Saga Community Discord" since my last blog post in July 2020.

Here are the changes since my last post:

2 bots have been added and configured to work on the server. These are "Unbelievaboat" and "Countr".

Unbelievaboat has definitely shaken up the #bot-room on the server, with it's fun economy and functions, the channel is now one of the most active in the server.

Countr serves a sole purpose of providing a counting game, we know counting games are popular here so we have brought it to the server.

We have also added Mee6, however due to bureaucrat constraints, we cannot configure him.

There is a new channel called #counting.

You know what this is for haha.

There is a new TimeOut role for misbehaving members, however as far as I know its not ready yet.

There have also been some general improvements in the server, which includes the restructure of channels, additional emotes (there are 50 emotes now), members can change their nickname, etc.

The beta channels category is one you can't see, but as I hoped, it's now in use again for bot configurations.

The current suggestions (some from the previous thread) are being looked into:

#wiki-announcements - Requires more consultation of the channel's function, e.g would the CCSW staff present in discord manually or automatically operate this channel?

Further restructuring of categories and channels.

Restructuring of staff roles, this has been long coming, and should be a priority.

The addition of a StarBoard.

Changes to #voting-room that involves StrawPoll.

Addition of Stream Chat

The following suggestions are not currently under consideration:

Addition of a verification channel- this is not currently needed.

#venting - this may negatively affect the server experience.

The server is working better than ever, but more needs to be done to make it as good as possible.

If you wish to respond to this thread with your opinion and further suggestions/discussions, you can reply on the CCS Discord, in #suggestions-and-server-discussion.

Or alternatively you can reply here.

Please note that any polls conducted will not be posted on this thread. Respond to polls using #voting-room on the discord server.

Thanks.

I will keep updating the wiki via posts

You will still be remembered even though Flash's over. Goodbye!

He has been very active on this wiki fighting over vandalism and fixing grammar and wiki content to date. He is also fixing level page info and references. He has also let me know if the wiki was getting vandalized, and also he has helped me on reverting pages if I needed help. It is better for him to have the rollback right so he can revert pages more quicker and easier. (He is now using the 'Undo' function)

I Support him for rollback despite him having under 1K edits and being in the community for at least 2 months.

Hey everyone! I hope all of you are doing well during such an unprecedented time. Even though I have struggled through an academic quarter that lacked all the qualities that make life encouraging in general, I've been heartened by contributors of both the CCS wiki and the community, and essential work that we have done to keep the place alive and possible.

While Cheekian, PowerCrusher, and I do what we can at the front of the stage to keep the place as updated as we can, fighting waves of redesigns that King throws at us, I also want to give a huge shoutout to Timhung and Pops8459394 for working side by side with me, always being eager to help out behind the scenes, provide board images that are almost impossible to get, and value teamwork above individuality - a rarely found but essential quality of what it means to be a leader. I never say it quite enough to the two of you: thank you for all that you do - I honestly couldn't do it without you by my side.

Based on my interactions with these two, I can ascertain that edit counts and these doohickey badges do not accurately represent the amount of work that you have put in to this wiki. It has happened multiples of times before, with former administrators Imamadmad and Liquoritz being the all-time top contributors to this date. While Pops is on the lower side in terms of edit counts, he has done so much for the wiki through Discord and for me, some that cannot be displayed in his daily edits.

Therefore, please join me in welcoming Pops as a content moderator. This post has definitely been long past due.

Share your thoughts!

The extinction of this Flash version is coming near...

Good day everyone. While this can be a follow-up for my 2018 retirement, exactly one year before today, I planned that I will stay here for only one year.

This year was rough for me playing Candy Crush. So, I decided to step down and retire from being an admin, but only in this wiki. Normally, I'd come back at the end of next year, though at this point, editing wikis is too stressful since you have to balance everything out: you vs the virtual world, and your time. Also, the recent updates of King made Candy Crush more boring for me, so I quickly lost interest. For me, living in the same routine every year—editing wikis, hiatus, coming back— isn't applicable anymore. This time, I must put away my wiki obsessions and devote into something more meaningful. Candy Crush is a rapidly evolving game, and my time is so precious I don't want to waste it.

But you can see me in Craig of the Creek Wiki (as a bureaucrat) and The Fungies! Wiki (as a regular user) where I mainly contribute nowadays. Thank you for being with me throughout my stay in Candy Crush Wiki, but nothing lasts forever, so my stay here must eventually come to an end.

Hey everyone!

A little over a year ago, I was perhaps the most vehement opposers of promoting Miss Toki as an administrator. My opinion was that it was quite early, I didn't really see a great presence from them on the wiki, and that they prematurely used admin-only privileges over others when other means were preferred. However, since the time of the last nomination, I've had a change of heart - after some more time here, I feel that they have transformed into one of the best users and assets that we have that isn't currently part of the administrative team. And therefore, I'm deciding to nominate Tokihiko for the position. From being a VSTF (SOAP) member who knows the insides and out of how all fandom websites work, to popping into Discord every once in a while for current news (even if they don't chat everyday), and to being someone whom I can count on every time a pending task needs to be completed, I feel that they are a reliable, team player that many people can count on.

One specific example that I believe really qualifies them is how they distinguish the difference of what it means to be a VSTF member and an admin. At times, I ask Toki to perform necessary admin privileges when I'm not near a computer, but they know that they wouldn't be allowed to even though they are easily able. Even though it creates more work for me and that this is standard protocol, I really appreciate the integrity honesty even though they got an okay from a current admin here. Pairing these acts of honor with administrator privileges would truly be the next leap forward.

Please join me in welcoming Toki to the admin team.

1. Change the time so that your treat calendar is at Day 7.

2. Then open the game.

3. Then change back to current time.

4. Now you have 2 free switches.

5. Close the app. Enter again. Do this for a total of 4 times.

6. Enter Level 2699 and keep on switching the ingredient. This will make the level very easy.

After the Booster Necklace glitch was patched, I found a new one. This, however, is not as helpful, but can be somewhat useful if you have a lack of boosters or even in-game tools. If you know the time settings for more lives, then you probably know this already. But if you don't here's how:

1. Change the time to 1 day later. Save.

2. Go to the Candy Crush Saga website or app.

3. Change the time back to normal. Save.

4. Go to the Candy Crush Saga website or app again. You will get a treat calendar prize, which is slightly better than the one you obtained this morning.

5. Close the website or app.

6. Open the website or app. You get more calendar prizes.

7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 to get unlimited treat calendars!

This is a combo glitch because you get the prizes as well as the lives.
