Topic, Space Contest

  Im one of those who dont enter the contest for the prize, Im entering because of the fun. I love competitions like this.

Also its the thing that its the whole BL that chooses the level(Exept the BB community), and not a few persons.

  Dingdong, the effort they put into the level will actually BE worth it in this way!!!

You actually get something for all of your hard work! Isn't that better than just 1 person getting it instead?

  I prefer the original way.

By your way we'll lose the extra effort everyone put in THEIR level to make it THE BEST.
Second is it not the crowds opion, but only the Jugdes'.

  What?

I don't get what you mean... 0.0

Care to elaborate?

If you really want to talk... 242 614 459

  AK seriously just get steam or skype or something so I can talk...and also I wouldnt advise doing that, you wont like the result...

  But so many people have already voted....

I'll put it to a vote:

Who wants it they way I think of it?

Who wants it the original way?

Here's my way:

Here's an example:

Quagmar Moons: Great design, nice work on paths, but lag and size decreases fun of the level.

Overall ranking: Excellent (EXP+35)

Astria: Great design, nice BG, paths are great, lots of fun.

Overall Ranking: Superior (EXP+50)

Here's what I think:
Levels won't be judged against other levels, but against themselves. 5 judges decide what rating the level is. Ratings: Superior (EXP+50), Excellent (EXP+35), Great (EXP+20), Good (EXP+10), OK (EXP+0)

Basically, levels will be judged and get one of those ratings. On the user's page, it will say under the award section:

_________(contest name) Contest Entry
________ (What it was rated, like Excellent) Rating
EXP+ ______ (however much EXP that award gets)

And there would be different colored/ styled medals for the different types of ratings.

If you did want it my way, we'd need judges. I'm hosting, so I probably wouldn't be a judge. We'd need to vote for some.

I vote Ferrari12 as one, Elizea as another. These are for judging design and BG.

Another 2 would judge fun and challenge.

Then the last one would judge overall concept/ difficulty in the creation. Basically the paths and level, are they cool, do they work well, something like that.

  WELL OK, if you want the contests to be how you want, then , I'll let you host this one!

  I don't see how entering a level in a contest is overreacting.

Except that it kinda defeats the purpose to make a topic against contests, but that's not overreacting as far as I know.

  Withdrawing my level from the contest.

Because I don't want to be "overreacting". -.-

  1. astria, It' a great design(3)
2. an auto in space, an amazing level(2)
3. lunar terrain, good idea for a space suit(1)

  1. Alien smasher a great idea and a very fun level(3)
2. Astria, A great level with amazing design (2)
3. Lunar terrain, another fun level with great design (1)

  1. An Auto In Space (3) {A Great Auto With A Great Design}
2. Alien Smasher (2) {Fun level with A Good Concpt And A Great Gameplay}
3. Astria (1)

  1. Lunar terrain: for the mechanism and the great challenge.
2. Alien smasher: for the nice use of Elizea's mechanism and the great boss
3. Astria: for the interesting idea, unfortunately, it's a bit too big...

  Alright,

1. Open air(see reason in my first vote)

2. Asteria, a great with nice BG and story, even thoug it is a bit laggy.

3. Quagmar moons: a fantastic level, but its size counts down.

  Ok. Let's do it like this:
First place gains 3 points, second place 2 and last place 1.

Sounds good ?

  AS it is now it seems like people accepts the new system so why not use it?

  I vote Lunar Terrain because it's got a sleek and inspiring design, simple but cool concept, and it's by far the most enjoyable level for me.

In second I put Astria, it's a beautiful and well-designed level with a nice story, very unusual for JG2. However it's not quite as enjoyable, so it's I'll put it 2nd.

In third I choose Alien Smasher. It has a fresh concept and a nice design, but it's quite frustrating, since the smasher doesn't always work. So it's third.

In a strong forth, Quagmar Moons, it's a very well designed level, but it's too big to be enjoyable.

I decided to put 4 instead of 3 levels in my list :P

If we won't use this system then pretend the 2nd to 4th place aren't there.

  We havent started using the system yet jasper.

Wait and see if the others also like it.

  1. An Auto In Space (3)
2. Alien Smasher (2)
3. Astria (1)

  Well... In that case i think the votes should give points then:

EXAMPLE
1.sporadic=3 points
2.Aliens smasher=2 points
3.An Auto in space=1

I think its a good idea GIS

  Yes, that would be great, like (example):
1. Sporadic
2. Alien Smasher
3. An Auto In Space
or
1. Open Air
2. Space Fight
3. When Ice Meets Sun

  What dingdong said.

Hmmm...
AK's topic has inspired me to vote for second places and third places as well, but without medals, what do you guys think ?

  AK, the problem with your level is that you worked too much. Its a really good level, but its simply to big. The Size combined with lag makes it hard to enjoy the level for me.

  15 hours?

-.-

How about 3 months?

Total, maybe 90 hours. -.-

Yeah, but I still wouldn't vote for mine. Just doesn't seem right.

I vote for Astria! Sorry dingdong, changed my mind. =[

Gundu, what? That level isn't one of the contestants... 0.0

WTF Has anyone even PLAYED my level? 80 plays, but 70 of those were mine... -.-

I think i'll just quit trying contests on BL... Just not worth it.

  After a lot of thinking, My vote goes to Super Turtle Galaxy, The idea was great and the execution was so nice. Brief, an amazing level!

  Edit:Dang GIS, I were too slow

  Obviously you can't vote your own level.

  So creators can vote? But not for their own level, or what?

If I can vote for Astria, I will, it took me some 15+ hours to make D:

  True, but for for people who dont use paths they seem very complicated.

  Actually, the paths are very simple in alien-smasher xD
