I'm just going to say along the lines of what MoD said:

Bloody hell! We've had uneven judgings in the past! It's not a big deal you can still find the final scores from them.. T_T Look Brando wants to start the next LDC today and we've been waiting ages for the results now, just do us a favour, add up the scores and post them! :roll:

MP3 EDIT: Also Brawler you can stop with the shouting. I am certainly not deliberately postcounting and i don't think anyone else is. I don't give a ♥♥♥♥ about my posts, i just want this to end. Hell, this has been the longest LDC in history, of course we are going to lose our patience.

Lol MoD i dreamed of the results too. :P and lol i'd love it if the 19th started today, something to take my mind off the results. But seriously, you could announce them MoD if worse comes to worse because you can see the PMs with the scores through the ACP. :3

Only I don't have the slightest clue how far DB is. Plus, what if I win? That would be awkward.

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.
Karyete: How pathetic

Guys. I know how to add up the scores. I'm not that dumb enough to not know what 2+2 is. I got this under control. No more complaints PLEASE.

Lots of clapping, but suddenly stops as the announcer gets on the stage.

Well, yes, I don't think you were expecting me to announce the results for the 18th LDC. But the waiting was unbearable, someone had to do something, and I finally got the right to do this. So everyone, I'm Star king and I'll be the announcer of the results of the 18th LDC!

Lots of clapping and cheering.

So yeah. The 18th LDC was quite a great challenge, for all Level Designer, and quite a competition. I have to say, 6 levels - SIX! - received an average ratings above or equal to 16. But who won? Who will receive that shiny golden trophy for maybe the greatest LDC of all times?

Star king points a trophy among a couple of others and ribbons, on a podium next to him. Clapping.

Judgings was messy, but we somehow did it. Let's congratulate the somehow good work of our 9 judges - NINE! - MessengerOfDreams, Nworlds, SuYo1141, ~MP3 Amplifier~, KevinOC, NanTheDark, and Volcove, with guest spots by myself and DarkBlaze.

Clapping, cheering, as the 9 judges stands up somewhere in the front row. It should be noted that they take up half the goddamn auditorium :troll: ~Love, MoD

The second LDC with the most entry, because we got 21 levels - Twenty-one! -(Star loves SPELLING OUT NUMBERS!) levels, here, but only 6 of them will be launched into the sky, with a possible place in WITBLO12. Who are that guys?

More clapping and cheering. Camera pans across the audience slowly.

The moments you've been all waiting for, MP3 and gentlemen, THE RESULTS!

More clapping and cheering.

WAIT, WAIT, WAIT!

MoD barges to the stage.

Sorry, everyone! But I have some news. It turns out Star miscalculated the scores.

Audience is silent. Kevin is heard muttering "LET'S KILL THE ♥♥♥♥"

Wait wait no! I have to say, we all partake in the blame. Or at least most of us. We were so antsy and ♥♥♥♥♥ for a conclusion that we threw Star king into the ring, where he was so rushed he miscalc'd ♥♥♥♥. I'd like to publicly apologize to DarkBlaze for replacing him as he may have had the right scores.

Silence is still reigning the arena. Some heads are turned down in embarrassment.

Nevertheless, I have the scores. While the winner and silver medalist are still the same

MoD beams while Volcove sighs

the scores are vastly different and so are the other four medalists. Let's get this done right.




In 6th place, with 16.08 points,
Image

Doram
for Island Paradise Escape!

It's a step down, Doram, my good sir. Doram shrugs, patting MoD on shoulder before taking a ribbon. Still, I gotta say. This is the same score as the two silver medalists of the last LDC. That's pretty well played, sir.



In 5th place, someone not even placed before the edits, with a new score of 16.21 (not too far from his winning entry last time)
Image

DarkBlaze
for Sandy Soil in the Skylands!

DarkBlaze takes ribbon quietly before heading down to the stage.

Yeah... hope you enjoy, hehe.



In 4th place, with 16.26 points,
Image

Yoshi Boo 118
for MMMMMMM!

Yoshi Boo walks up, a bit sullen over a slight place shift downwards. MoD trades his bronze trophy for a ribbon.

Still in the top 6 at least. And did I get the amount of Ms right? I did? Okay!




Lots of clapping and cheering, then complete silence as the lights starts to goes out slightly.

Now here's something crazy. Another tie! Yes, another tie to the decimal place for two vastly different entrants!

In third place we have two entries that were in 5th and 6th before, respectively



























Oh look, it's Mr.DramaSpace






















Image
Nin10mode
for Omniquet

AND


Image
~MP3 Amplifier~
A Universias... Creatirui... something sexy sounding in Latin!

both with 16.33 points

That familiar female squeal is heard as Amp rushes to the stage to collect her trophy. As cool and badass as ever, Nin10mode stalks up slower to take his place with the energetic woman. Both are given bronze trophies (although it's unclear where he got the second Bronze from) and then return to stage.




In Second Place, once again (now you know who it is)...







































Image
Volcove
for Savage Labyrinth
with 16.72 points

A wry grin on his face, Volcove shrugs and collects his seventh silver medal. (sic) He returns to his seat.




And finally, in First Place... well, we all know it's me, haha. Star king, I'll give you the mic back if you give me the trophy back. ^_^





























































Image
MessengerOfDreams
for Dark
with 18.16 or 18.53 points :O




Clapping, cheering, stomping, and whistling. Star takes the microphone back as MoD takes his trophy once more with a sincere, if not crooked grin.

Congratulations MoD, you finally had a 1st place medal for yourself and for yourself alone. The score, as it turns out, is actually higher than what I originally projected! The two different scores are there mostly because Kevin stated his score for MoD was a solid 21- rounded to 20 and added in that amounts to the highest LDC total in history, but it's not clear if that's official or not. Cheers MoD ;)

MoD: Shh, it's official. Just don't tell anyone. ;) Takes trophy and walks back downstairs to his seat.


Clapping, cheering, stomping, and whistling, as the now 7 winners stand up in pride.

And now, here's the new hopefully final list. The scores have been reevaluated by MoD, but if any errors are shown please let us know!

1st- MoD-18.53 or 18.16


ARE YOU ALL OKAY DOWN THERE?! :troll: ~MoD
