PLEY
Special Recognition

Not every great story fits a leaderboard. These awards are nominated and voted on by the Stonebyte community. Submit your story — or nominate someone else's — before August 1st.

🥇

PLEY Best of the Best

Awarded to the contractor with the highest PLEY composite score across all five pillars: Reliability, Quality, Communication, Safety, and Fair Pay. This is the top honor on the platform — the contractor every client wants and every competitor studies.

ReliabilityQualityCommunicationSafetyFair Pay

💚

Best Customer Story

Nominate a client who went above and beyond — paid fast, communicated clearly, trusted your expertise, or made the project genuinely great. The contractor submits the story; the community votes.

Stone: Green Serpentine

😈

The Nightmare Client Award

The (in)famous roast award. Every contractor has a horror story — scope creep at midnight, 47 change orders, or payment that took 9 months. Submit yours. The community picks the most legendary disaster. Winner gets the award. Client gets the public shame.

Stone: Red Jasper · Presented with dramatic music 🎶

🤝

Best Dispute Resolution

Awarded to the contractor who turned a difficult situation into a win for both sides. No lawyers, no ghosting — just professionalism, communication, and a fair outcome. PLEY mediation score counts.

Stone: Blue Lapis Lazuli

🎓

Best Mentor on the Platform

Nominated by apprentices and junior contractors. This is the seasoned pro who answered questions, shared knowledge, vouched for newcomers, and helped someone else level up their PLEY score.

Stone: Amber · Fossil inclusion optional

🔥

Comeback of the Year

For the contractor who had a rough patch — a bad review, a failed bid streak, a dispute — and came back stronger. PLEY score recovery is tracked. The community decides whose comeback meant the most.

Stone: Obsidian · Reformed under pressure

🤯

The WTF Award (Wildly Tenacious Finish)

For the project that went completely sideways — floods, failed inspections, stolen equipment, impossible timelines — and somehow still got done. The contractor finished against all odds and the client left a 5-star review anyway. Submit the story. Win the legend status.

The Grand Champion

#1 on the Global Leaderboard

Highest composite score across all 16 trade simulations worldwide. One player. One year. No one else was close.

Polished Jet Black Onyx

🎮

The Platinum Tradesperson

All 16 union tracks maxed

Completed every trade simulation to max rank. Electrician, plumber, ironworker, boilermaker — mastered all. Fewer than 0.1% of players will ever touch this.

Platinum Quartz

The GOAT

Greatest Of All Trades

Greatest Of All Trades. Nominated by the Stonebyte dev team, not the community. Only one is given. Ever. In the history of the game.

Meteorite Fragment

💎

The Diamond Apprentice

Perfect on every knowledge exam

Scored 100% on all 16 union trade knowledge exams without a single retry. Either a genius or someone who actually paid attention during the safety briefings.

Diamond Crystal

🎯

The Dead-Eye Estimator

25 estimates within 1% of actual cost

Twenty-five consecutive project estimates within 1% of the final invoice. In a game. Using fake money. Somehow still terrifying to bid against.

Imperial Topaz

🦺

The Zero Incident Record

1,000 missions, zero OSHA violations

One thousand missions. Not a single safety violation. Hard hat on every scene. Harness clipped every time. The simulation's perfect safety record holder.

Hi-Vis Amber

🧠

The Trade Scholar

Perfect score on all 16 union exams

Passed every union certification quiz with a perfect score. Blueprint reading, code compliance, tool safety, labor law — all 16 subjects. All 100s.

Indigo Kyanite

📐

The Blueprint King

200 plans executed, zero RFIs

200 projects executed from plans without submitting a single Request for Information. Read every note. Caught every conflict before it happened.

Grid-Pattern Jasper

🔨

The Zero Callback

100 jobs, zero client complaints

One hundred in-game jobs completed. One hundred 5-star reviews. Zero callbacks. Zero warranty claims. The simulation's most unblemished service record.

Hematite Mirror

👑

The CEO Endgame

Reached CEO rank with 50+ employees

Hit the game's final rank. Launched a virtual firm, hired 50 employees, won a $50M simulated government contract. Final boss. Unlocked.

Royal Crown Amethyst

🚀

The Speed Runner

Fastest IBEW campaign on record

Completed the full IBEW electrical apprenticeship simulation faster than any player in history. The leaderboard had to be extended to fit the gap.

Comet Tail Obsidian

🌅

The Early Bird

5 AM (game time) 100 days straight

The game tracks virtual work start times. This player arrived before sunrise 100 shifts in a row. Even the in-game foreman said 'go home, you're early.'

Sunrise Citrine

🎵

The Radio DJ

100 full shifts with job site music on

Hidden achievement. The game tracks whether the job site radio is on during missions. This player never once turned it off. Crew morale was through the roof.

Rhodonite

🐢

The Tortoise Trophy

72 hours on a single mission

Somehow still on the same mission after 72 in-game hours. Meticulous doesn't cover it. The task was to 'install one outlet.' It was perfect.

Ammonite Fossil

🤯

The 18th Time's the Charm

Passed a mission after 17 failures

Failed the concrete pour inspection 17 times in a row. Watched every tutorial. Tried again. Passed. The XP bonus on completion was its own reward.

Resilience Red Garnet

The First One There

First on-site in 200 consecutive missions

The simulation tracks arrival time relative to the virtual crew. This player beat the foreman to the gate 200 straight shifts. Legendary.

Smoky Quartz

📞

The Always On Call

Zero missed client calls in the simulation

The game generates random client calls during missions. This player accepted every single one without letting a single ring go to voicemail. All year.

Baltic Amber

😤

The Never Punches Out

12 consecutive hours on one job site

The game enforces rest breaks. This player found a way around all of them. We're still looking into how. The build was immaculate.

Bloodstone

The Live Wire

Flawless IBEW electrical campaign

Completed the full IBEW simulation without a single panel fault, code violation, or customer complaint. Zero tripped breakers. Zero callbacks. Every circuit clean.

Golden Citrine

🔧

The Pipe Dream

UA plumbing — zero leaks at startup

The UA plumbing campaign ends with a pressure test. This player passed first try on every single project. Not one drip. Not one re-test. Perfection.

Cobalt Sodalite

🏗️

The Iron Giant

Ironworkers campaign, max difficulty

Structural steel, high-rise, max difficulty, no assists. The crane landed every beam. Every bolt torqued to spec. The virtual skyline looks better for it.

Dark Hematite

🚜

The Grade A

IUOE — no utility strikes, ever

Operated every piece of heavy equipment in the IUOE campaign without once hitting a utility line. A feat so rare the simulation flagged it as a bug.

Terracotta Sandstone

🔥

The Blue Flame

Boilermakers — perfect weld scores

Every weld in the Boilermakers campaign passed X-ray inspection first try. Full penetration. Straight bead. No porosity. The simulation's QC screener wept.

Red Carnelian

🛗

The Sky High

IUEC elevator campaign in record time

Completed the IUEC elevator constructor campaign in the fastest recorded time. Every floor plumb, every safety interlock verified. Up and running opening day.

Tanzanite

🧱

The Brick by Brick

BAC masonry — perfect quality scores

Every mortar joint consistent. Every course level. Every corner plumb. The BAC masonry campaign at its peak. The simulation literally gave it a perfect 10.

Raw Fieldstone

💨

The Airflow Artist

SMART HVAC — all zones balanced first try

The hardest pass in the HVAC simulation: all zones balanced to within 2% on the first commissioning attempt. The virtual energy bills were zero.

Periwinkle Calcite

🏠

The Homeowner

Used game earnings to buy a Stonebyte condo

First player to accumulate enough in-game earnings to unlock the Stonebyte property simulator and 'purchase' a virtual condo. The dream starts in the game.

Forest Jade

💰

The First Millionaire

$1M in cumulative in-game earnings

Hit one million dollars in in-game lifetime earnings. It required negotiating wages, picking up side work, and not splurging on the virtual pickup truck.

Honey Calcite

🎓

The Real Deal

Game XP converted to a real union interview

The most important award on this stage. This player's in-game progress triggered a real interview with a union partner. The simulation did exactly what it was built to do.

Colombian Emerald

📊

The CFO Apprentice

Perfect score on all 6 finance modules

Completed every financial literacy module with a perfect score. Home buying, credit, vehicles, insurance, budgeting, investing. Financially untouchable.

Optical Calcite

🌐

The Globe Trotter

Missions in all 7 Stonebyte cities

Completed trade missions in all 7 city simulations: Tokyo, New York, Seoul, London, Dubai, Singapore, and Sydney. The most well-traveled virtual tradesperson.

Lapis Lazuli

🤝

The Mentor's Mentor

50 players guided to real job placements

Joined the in-game mentor network and personally guided 50 other players to real-world union job placements. This one changes actual lives.

Moss Agate

TradesQuest VR Lab · Day 1 & 2 · Open Floor · Secret Location, SF

Measure Twice.
Build Once.

Every system. Every process. Every SOP. Every failure scenario — built, stress-tested, and validated in virtual reality before a single material is ordered or a single crew member steps on site. The VR Lab is how the best contractors in the world eliminate rework before it exists.

trade-specific VR modules

The Pipeline — How It Works

1

Design in VR

Map every workflow, sequence, and decision point in a 1:1 virtual replica of the job site.

2

Run 100 Simulations

Stress-test the plan against weather, supply delays, crew swaps, and failure modes — all virtual.

3

Find Every Failure

Every crack, every bottleneck, every unsafe sequence surfaces in VR — not on a $2M build.

4

Fix It in Virtual

Iterate the process until it runs clean. Simulate again. No material waste. No callbacks.

5

Deploy to Real World

Crew walks onto site with a battle-tested plan. The outcome was already known before day one.

Core VR Systems

Disaster Prediction Simulator

Risk · Safety · Emergency Response

Simulate fire spread through an active structure, flash flood scenarios on an excavation site, seismic events mid-pour, scaffolding failure under load, and electrical arc flash in live panels. Crews run the disaster in VR — they know every exit, every protocol, every second of response before they ever walk the real site.

🔥 Fire Spread🌊 Flash Flood🏚️ Structural Collapse⚡ Arc Flash🌍 Seismic Event🏗️ Scaffold Failure☠️ Hazmat Release🚨 Mass Evacuation

Materials Pricing Engine

Cost · Supply Chain · Procurement

Walk through a virtual project and watch real-time price fluctuations on every material — lumber spikes, steel tariffs, copper shortages. Swap specs on the fly. Run "what if lumber goes up 40%" scenarios before signing a fixed-price contract. Train estimators to build bids that survive market volatility.

📈 Live Price Feeds🪵 Lumber Volatility🔩 Steel Tariffs⚡ Copper Index🏭 Supply Shortage Sim📦 Lead Time Trainer💰 Contingency Builder🔄 Spec Swap Engine

SOP Training Manual Builder

Process · Compliance · Onboarding

Build your company's standard operating procedures inside a virtual job site. Walk new crew members through the exact sequence — step by step, in VR — before their first day on site. Each step is recorded, timestamped, and exportable as a compliance-ready PDF manual. Train once in VR, deploy everywhere in real life.
