Winter Contest: The Winner and the Runner-up

[Rare]

I didn't think i'd finish my level cuz I was really busy with school and couldn't do more of the Level. At least i did half, but this week is Finals for me and The due date is in 2 days. I can't finish,so I might have to not participate till next Contest.

[Grovfu]

I think I could pull this off. I probably wouldn't win, but I'd love to contribute. Count me in.

You have like two days to make a level, so you'll really need to hurry.

He could have already made a level

I actually didn't submit the level I wanted to, because there was not enough time for me to finish it. So I put in a pre-made and unreleased one

[RudeGuy]

I have finally submitted my level!

It's the first time that I submit the level near to the deadline. Also, I don't think I'll get a place like the ones I got in the past contests.

[Mr Pancake Guy]

Can't wait to see how i'll do! I love Level Contests!

How to submit or send a level

• Put your level in a ZIP along with the optional custom graphics folder and custom music.
• Please don't put the files in another folder before archiving because I will have to move them out afterwards and that's more unnecessary work for me.
• You may include a readme with tips if you want. But if your readme only has credits for graphics or something, please put it in the graphics folder. I only want critical info regarding playing the level next to the levels themselves.

  • Archive your level as shown above. Don't put the level, music or the possible readme inside the custom graphics folder as I have to move it out and it slows down the process unnecessarily. Make sure the custom graphics folder and the level have the exact same name as otherwise the custom graphics won't display in the level.
  • Give your level a unique name. Don't name it "Level" or "Contest" as that just makes organizing the levels a pain and at worst levels will get overwritten because they have the same names.
  • Name the custom music as shown above. Here's an example. If it's the desert theme from New Super Mario Bros. Wii, don't name it "Desert" or "Custom music" because it could overwrite an existing custom music with the same name when I pack the levels for the judges. Renaming songs and then making sure they still work in the correct levels is extremely time-consuming. So do this instead: name it nsmbw-desert.mp3. That's a great way to prevent overwrites, and if somebody happens to use the same music, the overwrite is actually beneficial as the double song will be eliminated and the package size will be reduced.
  • Don't name your readme just "Readme" either because, again, that'll definitely cause overwrites. Put the name of your level in the beginning of the name as shown above.
  • Please name the .zip after the level, too.
• Please make sure none of the NPC codes have decimal values. They cause problems and slow down the judging/TOB progress significantly.
• Send your level to me in a Private Message. I will direct them to the judges.

Also, use sites like Mediafire, Dropbox or Sendspace to upload your level.

It's everything about how to upload correctly your level in order to submit it in the contest.
