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.

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
