This just in!

I came up with more additions!

The second level of Inscius Memoriam by BrawlerEX will be added to the WITBLO12 list as a stand-alone example, a la Calamari Cove. UNLESS Brawler is able to bring the series to a sustainable conclusion, in which case the whole series will be in. FOR THIS, THOUGH, I NEED HIM TO FIX THE ENDING, WHICH INSTAKILLS.

I now confirm the first four levels of TTOTMC by Triple J (Quattom Outskirts, Entrance, Readying for the Finals and Obstacle Course 1) as a WITBLO12 entrant. It's a big addition, but this series is already blowing me away, so I want to add the training levels as one entrant. Maybe we'll see more of it in 2013!

Luminous Caverns by blackyoshi will be added, primarily because despite being a small play, the graphics are breathtaking and the gameplay fun. So why not?

Edit: LordFalcon will now officially pull in another left field untouched level with Twin Towers confirmed for the WITBLO12 lineup!

I'll be playing some of the 22nd LDC levels so when the winners are announced I know what they're like, and what left field lower placements could be added. :P

Further Edit: Beyond by Volcove is a definite in! One of the cleverest puzzlers I've encountered in my day! Goes to show that we have a fantastic independent field to match our contest-sponsored levels!

I hate to be a newbie to this, but how will series be handled? And if someone finishes a series in January or something, will it be counted as part of the previous year's WITBLO?

Series will all be judged as one entrant, but no more than five deliberately connected levels may be considered, so either a sample of a large series (TTOTMC Quattom) or a full miniseries (Dark, Destinations) will be entered. Sometimes, only one level if there is less necessary connection (Calamari Cove from Epic Mario World).

So I was wrong when I thought I could do this all by myself. :3

Jk, and I suppose TP won't be going down after all. I'm now on the final boss level so there's NO WAY I'm stopping now. :D

Sorry for bumping this, but I have a question here:

What would you do when we get to the point in which we'll need a WITBLO16 list?

I imagine we'd just make the new posts in this topic and link to them in the first post.

But that depends if we will ever get to WITBLO16 first.
