Hello everyone! I'm hosting for the second time.
The theme of this contest is...
Now for the rules, very similar to the last contest's rules:
-Level series are allowed, but I will allow a maximum of 5 parts.
-Make sure the level fits the theme. Expect disqualification if it doesn't.
-Limit the profanity. Younger audiences play this game.
-Collaborations between 2 people are allowed.
-You cannot have started your level before the contest; it must be started from scratch.
Judging
10 points: Fun
Did the level entertain you? Was the story good, when existing, did it ruin the gameplay too much? Were there some extremely fun, annoying or frustrating parts?
5 points: Graphics
Does the level have cutoff? Did it make your eyes cry of luck or uglyness? Were the tiles and items used wisely? Do different tiles and items fit together or do they just look ugly? Is there decoration which is used in a good way?
5 points: Other
You start with 3 points. Points get added or reduced for everything which doesn't fit in any of the two categories or just stands out. Lag and loading time also give or reduce points here. Some judges also give/reduce points for a good music choice.
You judge out of 20, which will be the overall score. Judges may or may not leave a comment below the final score.
The judges for this contest:
1. Yoshi Boo 118
2. Nwolf
3. lordpat
4. MICrophone
Backups:
PM me if you wish to be a judge, backup or otherwise.
Deadline:
The deadline for this LDC is July 1st, 2013, 12:00am EST. You have more than a month, and the level should be done by the end of June. I will consider extensions based on the circumstances. As usual, post levels in the separate Level Vault.
Standalone Level Designer
Good luck! (and please don't turn this topic into an argument about the LL contests not being here yet, I can promise you they'll be coming very soon!~)

Thanks for making this just when I was almost done with a Jungle-themed level. 
Regardless, I think I'll make something new for this. No promises though.

I don't want to say much, because it distinctly says not to go offtopic about LL, but I just have to say this.
Why another SM63 contest? It's not like the LL fans haven't been begging for one since the update.
Now this most likely means that LL won't get any contests until this one's over.

Karyete: I don't have anything to say to you, I've been deliberately trying to not offend you for years, actually, but apparently everything I say to you is wrong. You come across as so aggressive that you successfully intimidated me into not wanting to talk to you
Karyete: Seriously, what is your problem? And not only that, you fail to even acknowledge you might be in some wrong here.
Karyete: Oooh it's you? Hello. Feel free to drop this right now. You're going to make yourself look like an idiot.
Karyete: We don't want to hear your opinion at this stage.
Karyete: You're not getting any apology, especially after now.
Karyete: You can stay up on your high horse, continue to twist the truth and act like an absolute child all you want. I refuse to give respect to a man who right now is picking up a dropped argument because he simply cannot fathom the idea that he might be in the wrong.
Karyete: How pathetic

I'd join this if my computer didn't express its distaste for SM63 every time I run it...
Runouw said he was going to host the first one, but he hasn't been online for over a week, so I don't know how that's going.

I think I'll give this a shot. I won't be able to work on it much until college is out.

I know, but why can't we host 2 LDCs at once? I doubt anyone has a problem with it. The users just have to make a simple decision of
"do i want to make a level in LL?"
or
"do i want to make a level in SM63?"
