anyone else having a huge lag issue when placing block?
this is really making it hard to build a level.

Site is giving me a 500 - Internal server error.
this for everyone?
and if it's not fixed by contest start?
(still haven't registered world)

Thank you guys for including a detailed explanation of your expectations this time!
Should be easier to get the correct difficulty and theme this time
(something many people, self included, had a problem with last contest).
Good luck to all participating teams!

Also, will we be deducted points if we don't fill the entire world?
(for instance, if we misjudge the size we need as 400 x 200, but only need 200 x 200)

New magic rate?

In addition to what was already stated, another problem is that more played worlds will naturally receive more woots. "Noob" players will only care about the total woot count, not the ratio of plays to woots. Furthermore, there many ways to obtain woots other than a level being good: woot for code, begging, etc. The woot system is inaccurate as well as any rating system that could be implemented and gives young kids the wrong idea. Same goes for any rating system ever.

In response to my previous post it could also be a key

Feedback

Pros: I believe that the effect blocks will open all sorts of new level concepts. Other updates such as world description are also appreciated.
Concerns: Some of the new smiles are cool (astronaut), but others just look weird (cow). I may be wrong, but couldn't you use switches instead of team blocks, or am I missing something?

Overall, the good outweigh the bad on this one.

Overall I think this is a very good tutorial, but I have to disagree with a few parts.

First and foremost is that this tutorial only covers how to make one style of mini. I'm not surprised by this as it is very much your style (and that's not a bad thing), but it does lead to a problem. The tutorial basically states that you should come up with the mini as you build and not try to plan a particular concept. In this type of mini it makes sense to this, but in other minigame styles, this is not always the case. Levels such as M1's insanity levels, Technological Terror, Death Dominion, etc. use a specific concept for each minigame. I may be wrong about this, but I doubt those minis were unplanned.

That being said, I really like the advice related to art. While it doesn't tell how to do everything, it gives people the right idea. The mini tutorial was also a good one for that particular style of mini. Because it is simple, it is a very good style for beginners to start on (Fun minis, not too difficult) and they may choose to continue with it.

As I said before, nice tutorial!

Beat it.

That's all I have to say.

Sounds like a good idea hope it turns out good.

I think switches really opened up the limitation of systems in EE. I figured out how to make a 6-player FE style S/TRPG where teams of players can battle each other. Limited action is a major problem though, it really sucks that they fixed the inf. glitch.
