As I said to both Doram and MoD before, I'm busy on Sundays, up until the evening or so. I can't get on earlier when I have more pressing responsibilities.

I'm here now as such, and can do it whenever.
Will do sporadic level reviews on request - PM if interested. I will only do one level at a time. I tend to be rather critical.

Sounds good. I hope Doram can get the numbers crunched and delivered.

I assume Doram's still working. I haven't received any messages or anything, so I'm also in the dark in regard to what's going on.

That's it. I got this stuff ready, and I caught MoD online, and he's bloody well doing it. Be prepared!!

*sigh* The results aren't in. Sorry.

It sure feels like I'm in a different world right now.
DA SPOILA-Read All About Me!: show
So welcome to my sig spoiler zone!
I decided to squish everything up into this one spoiler! Have a look around at my random stuff!


Ninny, you rule!
Image
Also a convenient link to What Once Was, my forum story in progress! :D Go, sellouts!

Wow, this is seriously cool, ain't it? Unfortunately I'm much too attached to my current avatar to switch it out. Hopefully posting a link to his art topic and telling everyone to check it out will make up for it. Peace out, Nin!


My Art Topic!
With a sample sig link!
Image
I advise starting at page 8 or 9 cause that's when my good art starts, but if you want nostalgia, check it out! Also, I DO NOT TAKE REQUESTS! :D


Us Kids Say the Darndest Things!
A forum based quote that amuses me!
Heh, the quote is muuuuuuch too big for the sig, but click here for a barrel of laughs!


Where Else You Can Find Me!
My other sites and accounts!
Youtube for my Music
DeviantArt for my Art
Fanfiction for my writing
Blog for the thing I'll never update


Religious Views!
The most comfortable and noncontroversial topic ever!
♥═══♥═══♥
I believe in God the father, and I believe he loves us. However,
I do not believe in religion, because I do not believe that God would
make us solve a puzzle with no clues in order to not be killed in fire.
I believe this for one reason.
God loves us.

My favorite person of the moment!
A guy who totally rules

George Carlin
A lot of you won't like what he has to say if you're really rooted in religion or politics or the idea of us as humans being incredibly important. But hearing this guy you'll find that even if you don't agree, he's funny and highly intelligent.


So ya made it all the way through my spoiler...
But since I'm not a cookie fan I'll just give you this song as a prize instead! (also convenient song of the month idea)
Thanks for wasting some time with me!

Judges:
Buffooner
SuperMIC
Star king
MessengerOfDreams

Hey everyone! Tired of waiting? I know I am! So we're gonna get this show on the road! Now since I came in... 11th... last contest, it was decided that for the eighth time I'd get way too far involved with a contest I'm not running again! :D Shall we post the results?

Actions like clapping and cheering and "Hurry up with it!"

Alright, so...



In 6th place, with 14.86 points,
Image

we have the epic level made by our very own...
MessengerOfDreams?
for Such Great Heights!

...what? That's not right!... no. No! ...no!

:(

*is shot*

Someone: GET OVER IT!

Me: Alright, alright! Anyway, on we go!



In 5th place, with 15.0833 points,
Image

the cause for all the fanboy hype, Star king
for Celestial Temple



In 4th place, with 15.125 points,
Image

for an unexpected triumph from the underestimated Nworlds
for Green Path




In Third Place... is a level that was regarded very highly by our judges for its originality and graphics! This lucky man is...






Image
effdramaspaceMaster1.0
for Earth's Secrets
with 15.25 points




In Second Place, a simply great level by a simply great designer!





Image
King
for Mario and the Floating Islands
with 15.875 points




And finally, in First Place... well unfortunately I have bad news.







Image
You wanted 5th, but unfortunately in first is Volcove
for Stone Tower Temple
with 16.5625 points







Number in parentheses is the number of levels. Exclamation point means multiple levels announced, but only the number indicated submitted.
*The 4th judge is generally MessengerOfDreams, but Volcove did MoD's level.


TL;DR:
1st Place Winner: Volcove
2nd Place Winner: King
3rd Place Winner: Master1.0
4th Place Winner: Nworlds
5th Place Winner: Star king
6th Place Winner: MessengerOfDreams
Full Score List

So, yeah! The 15th LDC is over! And despite my drama queen antics, I'm not too devastated about the 6th place! :P It was a pleasure to compete against such talented levels! I imagine all the judges will be pleased to post their results, and overall I'm proud of everyone! (except me of course but that's a different story)

The 16th will be up soon, courtesy of MP3 and... myself... again! I know! Another LDC with me all over it!

Also expect my tier list to be updated soon!

If you made a level closer to your second part in skill, you would have done nicely.

Now before I post my judgings... I remember having sent Buff some judgings that Megaboy already did that I did because I was bored. Were those counted or Megaboy's? When that clears I'll post my scores. :D
