A lot of competitions lately

I think there have been quite a few (fan) competitions lately (Building)

What do you think of it?

I think its quite good for EE, and the community. It brings out our creativeness and people who are usually too lazy to just go and make a level can actually produce something good for once. I think this shows especially in UBC, since it's not just one level that you create, it's a whole tournament, and the time given to make a level makes it even better because it's not too short; making people stress out when they're running out of time, but not too long, so people don't get lazy and they stay hard-working. And because it's a tournament, it will keep things exciting and it's not like work-tension-relief-done, it's longer which is way more fun.

Competitions also confront another issue which is widely complained about but not necessarily acted upon. The lobby. Many people complain about the lack of creative/fun levels in the lobby. However, how many people recognise the fact that problems have solutions? Like I said, competitions bring out creativeness in players. But not only that, competitors might inspire others with their creative levels. And these noobs you talk about that spread their noob levels, how can you forget what "noob" even means? New players? Oh, you knew that.. then why did you not expect them to not just copy everyone else? Hmmm everyone else... people still here... including... Veterans you might call them? You all should be ashamed of yourselves.

But I'm getting very off topic, however I have to go and can't write anymore.
