I'd have no probem with making a room... I'm just a bit... bad, to put it frankly. My only hold to this moment has (I think) less than a 5.

Ok, what the heck. I'm not exactly good either, but I might as well go next.

Edit: PASS. I can drop the black door with two moves to spare. Can you do better?

It doesn't matter to me, but thusfar it has remained a JtRH hold so it might be a good idea to stick to that. But it really isn't and shouldn't be up to me. So if the general concensus is to make it a TCB hold, I don't have any objections.

PASS!

I used no TCB elements, but it was built in TCB. Hope that doesn't ruin anything...

And I think we should stop this and start a new one after we finish the fifth level.

That removes backwards compatibility. I think you should just revert to whatever was the latest backwards compatible version, and go from there... I've not looked at the hold at all, but it's probably already inconsistent enough without starting to mess with TCB features near the end.

Ok, so I found an unintended solution in my latest room, so I have fixed it.

This version is also created by the "community" player PassingOfTheHold, which was created so we do not have to continually make copies of the hold that we can edit. For the future, please import and use that player to edit this hold.

JtRH calls it corrupted and TCB crashes when I try to import that player.

I just tried re-downloading and importing that .player into JtRH and it imported fine...

Ok, so the first step to necromancy is bringing a skeleton back to life. All I have to do is point my finger at the skeleton, say the magic words, and I should finally have someone to do the chores in my house! "Necromantic pepperoni internet plasma likuda fireman ice DROD!"

*Passing of the Hold comes back to life*

Great, that was for threadomancers. NOT necromancers...

Eh, while I'm here, I might as well pass the hold.

Now to find a skeleton and a necromantic spellbook.

*On topic* This one is trying to implant a joke story into the hold. Sorta like one of the secret rooms in the first level of this hold. I also have a potental secret level opening made, so try putting that in.

Also resurrecting this thread, a year after I've made Hold Passing Twice North, I can't remember why I thought the room was fun. It's definitely not fun for me to replay it anymore.

Anyway, after taking a bit of a break from this hold I'm playing it through again. Some of these rooms are /really really hard to do/.

Now most people here might not agree with me, but I *really* believe we should stop this and start a TCB one.

Why would this one need to be stopped? There's no reason that the new rooms can't be created in TCB. Just because the existing rooms are restricted to JtRH elements doesn't mean the entire hold needs to be.

Eh, finish this level, then start TCB. Or just do both. Besides, it's nice to have limits.

Nope, people just kind of stopped working on it.

It seems it would have to be up to Canadian_Army to make the promotion, but I don't think he's around anymore...

What about promoting the last posted version in this thread?

Aren't there some good rooms in there?

I guess there are, but it's very hack&slash-y overall, and there's a fair few frustrating rooms. Not a bad hold though, I'd submit it if I could. But I think Canadian_Army's the only one who can upload this...

EDIT: And a quick stalk check tells me that his last post was over 8 years ago...

If no one wants to tackle it, I could probably find some free time to clean the hold up. Make the rooms pretty, look out for backtracking issues etc.

It's not like I have much free time, I just sometimes need a break from all this programming .

I haven't played this hold yet, but that sounds like a good idea. A lot of work was put into this hold and it would be a shame to see it go to waste.

In the revival topic, I proposed the idea of bundling both Passing holds together for release. Does anyone agree with this, or should we keep them separate entities?

No, they're separate (and ideally this one should be kept as a JtRH hold, if possible).
