*vivid chatting, laughter and what not*
*as everyone gets quiet, the red curtain opens revealing a screen with the following picture*
*Star king walks on the stage holding an envelope, as everyone applauds and cheers*Star king: Good everning everyone, it is that time of the contest! Finally! After a few days of judging, and of some of you being patient (thank you), we got to the part everyone was hopefully waiting for: THE RESULTS! The final part of the 25th contest! The part where we are are going to know who won, who placed in the Top 6, and who didn't have the chance to earn a medal. Speaking of which...
You may know that I have been working on the redesign of all the medals, and so, admitting Suyo uploads them soon, the winner of this LDC should get one of these new medals (of course, previous winners will also have it). Being the medal guy and since Suyo isn't done with uploading yet, I'll allow myself some leaking, and show you the NEW LDC Top 6 medals. Here goes...

I see some of you noticed that there is Mario's emblematic M on it... What about LL? Does that mean there will be LL LDC medals? Damn right there will be. I also hope you all understand that these were one of the main reason I wanted to announce these results.
I think I said everything. We can start... Who will get these handsome medals?
*slowly opens envelope, quickly reads a name and closes it back*In sixth place...
1018peter and his level
Freezeflame Fortress!
with 16.01/20!Surprise place much? Not at all. His level is indeed quite an awesome piece that mixes great gameplay, and attractive graphics.
In fifth place...
-KT and his level
A Dinch of B!
with 16.19/20!Joke entry (noun):
Piece of art done at the last minute with original gameplay, epic graphics, and that places 5th. (Definition according to the -KT dictionary)
In fourth place, we have...
Volkove and his level
Final Fortress!
with 16.25/20!(next place is only 0.01 away...) His entry had a very solid gameplay indeed, Volkove impressed us again... Not enough though?
And now for the Top 3!
In infamous third place...
Doram and his level
Bowser's Icy Stronghold!
with 16.26/20!Simplicity does rhyme with awesomesaucity, after all. Thank you Doram for the reminder.
The two first placers are very close... But only one won... Anyway, in glorious second place, we have...
MessengerOfDreams and his level
Sympathy for the Devil!
with 16.93/20!The latest masterpiece from MoD, soon in your closest theater. Someday. Hopefully.
Which leaves us with one final member, one final participant who won against legends like MICrophone, MP3 Amplifier, Volkove, -KT and MessengerOfDreams... the ultimate first placer, the winner of the 25th LDC, themed Hot and Cold Episode II, Bowser's Newest Castle, or Another Desert Oasis, is no other than...
Nwolf! and his level
Bowser's Forgotten Castle!
with 16.98/20!Why? Because awesomeness. Great innovative game play, eye-popping graphics, everything to make a great level.
*intense applause and cheering as the 6 winners gets on stage*As for the others, here is the TABLE OF RESULTS.
Fun facts:
- Nwolf never got the personal maximal score in a judge's ratings. MessengerOfDreams got it 3 times out of 4, though, but still ended second.
- KevinOC's level got the biggest difference in his ratings, with 7.5 points between his best score and his lowest score.
- Doram's and 1018peter levels was rated the highest with 18/20 from MoD.
- The three top levels featured a sort of mix of the three themes instead of one, unique, definite theme.
*Star king congrats the winners as they are being given their trophies**winners walk off the stage*And that closes the twenty-fifth edition of the SM63 Level Designing Contest. Don't forget the second 25quared Contest is happening right now, in case one win wasn't enough, or if you already want to make another level.
Check it out!Star king out!
