King Darfit's Problem (Architecture contest) (0)
King Darfit was, and is, a fat, lazy man (kind of like King Dugan). He decided that everyone probably wanted to be like him. Therefore he decided to call together all of his best architects and build a dungeon. The Smitemasters should be able to clear the room in 100 moves or less. Of course, the roaches were probably lazy as well. To that effect, he ordered all of the architects to design rooms that are very easy for the monsters, and therefore very hard for the Smitemasters. These are the instructions:
1. Design a single room that has a demo for beating it that has less than 100 moves.
2. The harder, the better. Rooms will be rated based on difficulty.
3. There is to be no scripting that is not fully explained.
4. There are to be no secret walls, image floors that mimic something, or any other deceptions.
5. You are to submit one (1) hold, consisting of one puzzle room and up to infinite non-puzzle rooms (but remember, Smitemasters will want to be lazy).
6. All entries must be in by 05/06/2007.
7. Only the last submitted entry by each player counts.
8. All Architects must submit a demo to prove that their room is, in fact solvable. These do not have to be displayed to the public, but must get to me before the voting begins.
9. Speed potions do not increase the amount of moves that a Architect has to build a room with (1 step = 1 move)
Note:
It is not required to enforce 100 move limit, as it is possible that the Smitemaster makes more than 100 moves. However, it is assumed that, being lazy, they will go for the shortest possible solution. This being said, do not build a room that encourages long demos, such as a slayer kill that, if you do it perfectly, makes 100 move, but could take a lot more if the Smitemaster is not adept at manipulating slayers. King Darfit does not like situations that encourage work.
