I know that's off topic...but someone know how could be MaGLX3?

you should chill

Why are you still complaining MECH? Just move on, it literally doesn't matter what the judges say. It's just a contest for a mario game - it's supposed to be fun.

I am not complaining, I just want Quill to elaborate more. I may still be sick to my stomach about it, but I do not understand Quill's review.

you are complaining

MaGLX3 will probably happen in 2017. Unless MaGL3 takes a while. So either 2017 or 2018.

The placement is appropriate imo. The radiation does take a while to go down when you're behind a wall. The lack of contrast in the background is a bigger problem for me, actually, even if I didn't get lost. I would've given it a 7.5/10 if I were judging it.
But hey, you got a great placement dude. If Quill didn't like your level because of the gimmick and the fact that he got lost then that's appropriate critique from his experience. Plus, not all of the judges experiences will be just how you intended it.
And even if you say that there is no way for someone to get lost with the arrows and all, it may very well be bad luck.

Uh yeah about that.

I would be ranked 5th or better if Quill did not rank our levels so low! I feel cheated out of top 6!

That right there? That is what we call 'complaining'. Following up your complaints with insistence that you're not complaining doesn't make them not complaints.

If you are under an illness, or the like, you would slowly heal. Way slower than you would be to get ill from being infected; by lets say, Snake Venom?

Plumbers also can't typically jump to 5 times their height. These are called 'acceptable breaks from reality' and people make them when they want to make their videogames more fun than they would be were they bound by realism.

The idea of it only refilling (or I should say depleted back down to 0%) is based on (other than the fact I could not check if the player is not against a background object) is that you- scratch that, it was a lua limitation. (I can see that as a flaw, but not much of one, and it adds more to the level honestly).

You say it adds to the level, evidently Quill disagrees. That is how opinions work sometimes.

I can't comment on much in this situation having not actually seen the level but honestly you're raising a fairly significant shitstorm about getting freaking 11th place in a contest. You yourself never expected to get this far, let alone anyone else on this forum. Mind you, asking for clarification is a perfectly fair thing, but watch your tone when you're doing it, make sure you're actually asking for clarification rather than throwing a fit about one of the judges not liking your level.

yes

I have to laugh at this. This is too funny xD. Mech, you did good. You did a lot better than I thought you would. If anything, I'm the one that should be upset lol. But we're all past this and it's water under the bridge, so yeah.

There's been plenty of us that would've ranked much higher because one judge ranked lower than the others. Like Shinbison-Kof rated my level much lower than the other judges, but that's just how it worked out. We all have our own opinions, and that should be accepted. We get multiple views from other people, and this can ultimately help you catch mistakes or things you may have overlooked. You also can't please everyone out there. That's just how the cookie crumbles.

I would like to request if someone would like to see another ranking list that's kinda like a "what if _____ was the only judge" scenario. I just think that would be interesting to see. XD hahaha

I was plaining on doing that for each judge if a judge did not review this contest.

For those that did not catch on, I am rooting for Chad.

You really aren't helping your case there. Be proud of yourself for earning a high position in the contest, also listen to what Zyglrox said. This is the same kind of drama that happens when one wants to thinly-veil their dissatisfaction on the level scoring like usually on SMWC's VLDC results threads.

To the remaining entrants, well-done. To the winner, congrats.

still complaining about that Quill-factor smh

also i just want to say that unlike someone who is actually biased (like someone who would give a level a higher or lower score based on extreme usage of custom graphics), quill is just hard to impress, which makes him a good judge imo because he doesnt just say "ya this level was okay 7/10" but actually has (admittably high) standards

Forgot to post this earlier.

Mechdragon you are soiling on your successful achievements

I'd stop talking if I were you before people start mocking you for this

7nth place got only 7 points lol. I wonder if the judges were a bit harsh this time around.

Edit: It is possible that the scores just happed to even out a bit more this time too.

There is also almost a half point difference between 6th and 5th place, interestingly. If something was wrong with a level the judges really caught onto it.

I feel like I was too generous with some of my scores though, but hey it was my first time so there's lessons to be learned if I ever judge again.

I also really liked your level by the way. Definitely one of the more unique ones in the contest! ^^
