LAT Challenges?

[Crono]

I noticed

1) The amount of activity in our brother's (the GATs) forums
2) The competition they have

So what about us LATs? Let's have some competitions, some flamewars, etc. Come on now. I might hold something, not sure. Maybe someone more organized should host a competition? No prize needed really.

Your work on Era should be so time consuming, that you shouldn't have time for competitions, sleep, or even a life.

I don't know about flamewars, all that USUK OMG YOU STOLE THOSE LEVELS!!!@ would get kind of irritating, but competitions and collaborations would definitely be fun.

Perhaps each week or few weeks there can be a competition to utilize a different leveling style or aspect of the tileset, or even a completely different tileset.

lol, I haven't made a level in so long...
would be fun though.

Level Collabs hurt my eyes. It would have to be a VIP collab lol.

I'll join in. havent entered a leveling competition in years. Last one the only people who entered were me and Wan.

Good point. Perhaps some sort of strict collab where each submitted level is reviewed before it is actually added to make sure it fits the style. Or as you said a VIP collab where only certain people can contribute, although that kind of defeats the purpose of a collaboration. If done right, though, a level collaboration could be pretty fun if say, a bunch of LATs got together to make a small island. One could be assigned the forest, one some mountains, another could do the coastline, and a few could make some villages and stuff.

The easiest way to have a contest would be to give a specific scene for people to design, with at least 3 things the level must have ex. A lake house with a balcony in the forest.

....If Crono makes a level Ill do it. But...Wan will win lol. Maybe ill team up with Tom and have him make some a few custom tiles XD.

Flamewars sound good.

Don't act like Wan is un beatable.

Already started (what, it makes you guys look better).

I dislike collabs for one simple reason; people of... sub par talent decide to enter, and ruin (a strong word, but fitting) a potentially good looking level. Maybe we should have another contest like the ones from awhile ago:

• Make a level with a prerequisite of usable tile types (must use snow tiles, lava tiles, and grass tiles in a level for example).
• Post a level half tiled, and the contestants need to complete the level (WITHOUT REMOVAL OF PREEXISTING TILES).

Ask Shadowless if he could moderate several competitions etc.
