Remember the old times, playing DROD : AE? Well, if yes, this contest is for you!

I will be the judge.

Rules :


You must crate a hold with minimum a puzzle room only with AE elements. You can use scripting only for speech. You can also use custom graphics, along they don't are part of the puzzle. Same thing for lights.

Judgement

Every PUZZLE room = +1 point
Every secret puzzle room with TCB elements = +1 point
Speech = +1 point
Custom Graphics = +1 point
Lights = +1 point
Puzzles difficulty = 0/10 = +X points ( X = difficulty )
Fun = 0/6 = +X points ( X = fun )
Bug, unintended solution = -5 points


And the most important rules :

1) All holds must be created with TCB 3.00 or 3.02, all the holds created with 3.02 must be converted to 3.00 thanks to Stefan's convertor.
1.5) MAXIMUM 6 puzzles!
2) Have fun!



PRIZES :

1st place = My legal DROD stuff collection + 4 mod points
2nd place = 2 mod points
3rd place = 1 mod point


Contest will end on : June, 2, 2007

Use drod AE for the puzzle, then import in tcb and add scripting + lights.

So I could create a hold with 1,000 terrible puzzle rooms and that would be rated better than an amazing hold with 10 rooms? Is it just me or is something wrong with that?

Who is supposed to judge the entries? And how do you define these things? What, in your definition, is a puzzle room, difficulty, fun, a bug or unintended solution?

You might also want to use the[ localtime] tag's to be able to set an exact date.

For each puzzle +1 point, if the puzzle difficulty will be rated 6/10 additional 6 points, if the puzzle is boring no additional poits, but if it is fun 3/6 3 additional points.

How do you quantify this, and who is the judge? You? The voters? A select panel?

Even still - an entry with 1,000 terrible puzzles will get you at least 1,000 points, wheras an entry with 10 puzzle rooms could get no more than 200 points.

Yeah, but you didn't say "+1 for every good puzzle room", you said "+1 for every puzzle room". If it's a question of whether a puzzle room is good or not, I'm somewhat disinclined to throw myself on the mercy of the judges on that particular point.
