I'am also in. It's kind of interisting what kind of levels people will come up with when they are not allowed to use CustomGFX or anything like that.

Eh, sure, why not. I'll join in, too. :3

...Maybe I can actually make something decent when I don't have to worry about making it look all sparkly and shiny. Heh. :p

I am pretty sure that Joey you ask what level name you prefer later.

I don't recall saying that.

Also, we don't need tons of posts in this thread saying "I'm in" or "I'll join". If you're going to join, send me a level before the deadline.

If we want to name our level, should we name it something like "Cool Level - HenryRichard.lvl", or should it be done differently?

By the looks of that, no you can't even put a name for your .lvl

He said it so in the first post, you have to sent it to him.

You must put your name into the name of your level. Joey will delete it from the name after.
You can put something else into the level filename, just put remember to put your name in it.

The 2015 (and first ever!) SMBX Spring Vanilla Level Contest!

The object of this contest is really simple - you must design a level that has no custom modifications whatsoever. In essence, your level is just a .lvl file. Your level will not have a name and the judges will not know who made each level. All the judges will see is your level itself.

The rules are pretty straightforward, but feel free to ask questions if you have them:

- Your submission must be just a .lvl file. No zipfiles, no instruction texts, no credits. Just the one file, preferably called "Username.lvl" or something to that effect just to make it easier on me. All level names will be erased upon delivery to the judges. Submissions that are not a single .lvl file will be ignored.
- Levels will be submitted to me (Joey) via MediaFire, Dropbox, Sendspace, or another easily accessible file sharing site. If I can't download the file and/or I have to create an account on the file sharing site, the submission will be ignored.
- Levels that contain any content that clearly indicates the author's name will be disqualified (e.g. a message box saying "this level was made by...").
- Levels that are not able to be completed normally (i.e. without cheating or editing) will be disqualified.
- Joke levels are not allowed.
- You may not talk about your level in any form before the results are posted. This includes (but is not limited to) forum/IRC discussion, posting videos, or posting screenshots. Likewise, you may not submit a level that you have previously talked about in any form.

Levels are due on Friday, May 22, no later than 11:59 PM EST. Good luck!


I am also looking for 3 judges. Anybody is welcome to send me an application via PM. The application must include what flavor of vanilla ice cream is objectively the best: you may choose between Vanilla Bean, Classic Vanilla, and French Vanilla. Feel free to include any other information you feel is relevant. I will try to have the judges posted in two days (on April 22), so please send me an application as soon as you can. Please note that being a judge will void your right to participate in the contest.
Is that really a problem. what kind of worthless troll wastes their time making crappy joke levels for professional contests like this. to think that such bumbs share our air and our earth!
