I clearly over-estimate my own abilities. Really, LD-ing is shown to be not something I should continue

Nobody begins at perfection- just keep working at it, and by all means don't give up.

Edit: Also, you guys expect too much from me and honestly I think that's why you were so hateful on my level. At least next LDC I'll go back to my usual style and idgaf what you think about it ._.

People tend to overestimate themselves, it is not something rare, and it also happened to many good LDers today. (look at the previous page)

Reading the reviews is always a great way to understand other people's opinion, and to see what do they think you need to put enfasis on. Don't put yourself down too often since it does happen. Even the best ones tend to have this kinds of problems once in a while.

As for your level, it was not bad. It was just had many empty parts. The parts that were filled did work (cave parts).

This is going off-topic. I am willing to help you but I'd rather continue all this in PM (you can also PM Amp, right? :p). Same goes for you, Triple J. Still, if you feel more confortable posting here, I think you can.

EDIT: I also know how you feel of getting worse and worse with the time. The truth is that as time goes, if you keep putting effort, you will get back again. Don't feel too sad about this, as I told Triple J, with time most people get much better. Believe me.

Also, post your judgings, Ar.

It's better if you mix action with puzzle instead of all puzzle, at least from what I've seen. I mean MMMMMM was sorta like that and it did pretty well. :3

Moral of the story: Never try anything new or unusual again, always react negatively to anything outside of the norm, puzzle levels are no longer relevant, and scores run officially on bias now.

This LDC was embarrassingly handled.

My Most Recent Works: show
I switch my signature a lot. If you wanna see some of my past ones, here you go.
Silent Conversations and a Crow's Final Song!
My latest story, and one of my personal favorites. A girl bound in silence finds the words to say to her prospective girlfriend as they visit her religious father in a dusty town on the edge of Kansas, where the crows' migration south brings forth anchored memories, the path to resolution, and a new start.

Form (25quared)
This might be like nothing you've seen before.
Updated Works! Some of my past best and current stuff: show

Fanfic: Shut Up and Dance
why do I write so much about dancing you don't dance you've never danced in your entire life
lying little ♥♥♥♥ with your ♥♥♥♥ story ♥♥♥♥ you

Fanfic: Worth a Thousand Words
Because the world needed a Samus/Dedede story
Fanfic: Ecstatic Silence
Just wanted to write and ♥♥♥♥ like this happens, you'd think I'd know better.
Fanfic: Far From the Edge
It's a dance that's been a long time coming for a brand new man and an unchanging woman, but once one takes the plunge there's no falling back up.
Original: Jealous Ghosts of the Mississippi
The story of Rachel meeting Amber after a lifetime of silence and being shunned
Original: Your Hand in Mine
One of my most personal stories about a dangerous romance. Now to be published in a college lit journal!

Disclaimer: none of these messages have been edited, context can be provided if needed (thanks discord!) but absolutely does not change anything about these messages and that he's too overly defensive and cocky to make situations better

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.

The ♥♥♥♥?
No offense MoD, but that's just being a complete jackass. I would say "That's higher level dickwad than ShyGuy" but then he posted "lol", so you're ♥♥♥♥ lucky I didn't. Where the ♥♥♥♥ is the reason in saying that? "Never try anything new or unusual again" Why the ♥♥♥♥ not? Good things can come from that, but sometimes it's doesn't work. "Puzzle levels are no longer relevant" and "scores run officially on bias now"? Where the ♥♥♥♥ did that come from? I can actually tell that was aimed at me, probably because I just happened to dislike Sk's entry. How in the ♥♥♥♥ is that actually biased? And don't be an blatant ♥♥♥ to someone who has both anger issues and autism, either. I'm pissed off at you, now. Honestly, pat made me feel better earlier about what YOU said to me yesterday, but BOOM! All of pat's efforts are ♥♥♥♥ gone. I am almost ♥♥♥♥ tempted to start up an Anti-MoD group. AGAIN. Don't make me do that. Please.


P.S let's end this here I don't want to start a flame war
