Amp's Official Level Designer Tier List

[NanTheDark]

Your levels will always be appreciated. But if you're not having fun doing this or if it stresses you out, perhaps it might be best to stop, or give yourself a break, for your own sake. We'll understand.

Why, am I, still, HERE? I thought I asked to be taken off, but now Rook got introduced and I was just bumped down to Rook? Are the minitiers going to need to go through all of chess and all of a poker and all of the major arcana before I finally get knocked off this thing? I made one good level. I made one good level and yet I still hold enough notoriety to have a place on the minitiers? How? How? Has nobody else come in to take my spot or something?

Okay, my reaction is a bit exaggerated, but I still find it odd I'm still anywhere on this list given the one time I made a great level was the one time and was also a collab. I don't really mind, as my interest in level designing has fallen in general. I'm not very motivated to care about my place here as I'm not very motivated to do level designing in general.

The one other time I can think of when I made an especially good level was Aerial Adventure, and that was for LL during the mini-LDC Raz hosted. I set out to be level 1-1, as a result it was about 2-3 minutes or less and within the play time I allotted, make it as good as possible. All evidence suggests I managed to succeed, despite my own personal critique of the level. I still feel like I could've done more with it, but what I made is acceptable.

I'm with Nan about taking a break. Probably the main reason I quit doing Level Designing is because I quit enjoying it. The other is probably a lack of motivation to keep making levels, but that may stem from not enjoying it as much as I used to.

[Karyete]

Not to try and make things worse or anything but I have no objections to being removed from the list.

It's nothing major, really - I just love using LL much more than SM63 and I find it so challenging to make even the simplest SM63 level, since I'm so comfortable with LL's mechanics.. While I'm not stopping entirely, I doubt I'll ever move up on this list, so my spot is probably more deserving of another designer.

damn I wish we had an LL counterpart to this list...

I can safely say, speaking for BY, Runouw, lulzaraptor and the rest of the Staff team, that there won't be ANY kind of Tier List in the LL site.

Just saying, if you guys are wanting to do something like that here then go on. But I'm pretty sure that Runouw wishes the exact opposite of what is happening right here for LL, and I'm definitely with him.

the nonexistent rest of the staff team because with you it's already all four

But Xero has a point, some of the minitiers haven't been updated for ages, and it's quite confusing seeing someone with a 2-year hiatus in "Next Big Things".

[l.m]

Um, the Staff Team is not limited to only these guys. There are a lot of people working in the background of the game, plus Yuri that is also a part of the Team.

[Supershroom]

staff team = admins + glomods + lemods

dev team = the people creating and testing the game

FF shoots Shroom

FFEDIT: Whoops

ShroomEdit: Speaking about minitiers, I'd rank Sk and -BY on top of Fame and Notoriety, simply by the astounding amount of views and ratings their levels get.

[Jumbo101]

Hm? I'm still on potential chart crashers?

[Raiyuuni]

I still am, so I don't see much reason for you to not be there.

[1018peter]

IMO, almost everyone below me does better work than I do.

My levels can't ever reach Supershroom's level of graphics.
My levels can't ever reach Jumbo101's level of innovation.
My levels can't ever reach Raiyuuni's level of fun.
