I've been thinking about this and am I not right in saying that if I didn't have beasties running around, the various coloured doors would have disappeared?
(Anyway, rooms without any beasties would be a little tedious perhaps?)

Well, did you play Professor Goole's Goolean Dungeon from the Holds al dente contest? That hold made use of this interesting quirk. Namely, if (for example) a red door is in a room with no trapdoors, the door will not be there when you enter the room (of course), but it will appear on the minimap when you are not in the room. (Similarily for a black door with no tar/mud, and green door with no monsters).

ummm no; I wasn't involved in that contest at all - either as participant or voter. Thanks for clearing that confusion up Kevin. Mind you there is still my final point about interest?

I think the point of this contest (and hold art in general) isn't to create a hold to be played, specifically, but to create a hold intended to be looked at it in the editor / minimap. Therefore it wouldn't matter if there are monsters or not.

Okay! The deadline is here! I'll get to the polls in a few hours. I gotta eat and do homework.

Keep posting,
