The contest's done. Please rank the holds out of ten, and in a week the winners will be announced.

Clarification re version: Feel free to play these holds in 3.1.54. Feel free to convert them to 3.0.0.

But if for some reason a hold breaks in 3.1.54 then it's still considered a legal entry if it's solvable in 3.0.0 - that's the critical point. It was so that anyone who made an entry in 3.0.0 would not be disadvantaged by the new version being released.

Voting ends in a week, so put in your numbers, feel free to leave comments on what you thought of them, or ask for help solving. It's perfectly allowed to vote 10 for your own hold, but judge the others fairly. Don't be nasty :)

Thanks for letting me run this contest, it was more fun than a barrel of weasels. And I mean a decent sized barrel.

True, but your hold was down as Dex, so that's what I listed it as.

Same for you Rheb, your hold was listed as Rasmus Bjrling in the filename. Presumably it didn't like the umlaut on the o. I just listed the holds by their filenames :)

Dex Stewart, your hold is still not playable in 3.0.0. Could you please change it? I think I remember a problem with the converter or something.

I am having the same problem. If the downgrading can not be solved could someone just post a jpg of the room so I can see what it looks like even if I can't play it. I don't want to downgrade anyone because I can't load it as that seems to be a issue not the creators fault.

And here's an image of the room.

It somehow won't let me attach it. I'll try another format.

Sorry, I can't attach any image. No idea what's going on.

What spelling mistake? No sir, you didn't see any spelling mistakes. We're all perfect spellers here, honest!

Your grade doesnt matter - its how smart you are.
Anyway, it looks like alot of Contestants, i voted. Im Suspecting its going to be a draw (Or 7.000000001% Of having a draw) still. These people made Very very very good rooms, they should become "Master Architechts" (Sorry for spelling mistakes :D)

Did OK on Someone Else's, until I got the adder down to near the tar mother and decoys. Then it starts acting very strangely. The decoy's must be affecting it, right? But I lose all control then!

Haven't played the last three yet. Any PM hints for the above would be appreciated. These architects are evil! :devil

I agree, some of these are pretty hard. As for Chaco's, he gives a hint as to what to do in the first part further up the board. I've managed that and have got to the part with the roach, but can't go north without simultaneously being zapped by Aumtlich, so will need some help here.

As for mine, getting the pairs of eyes (I assume you mean the ones behind the yellow door and pit) is easy...

And the contest is over!

Well done to everyone, we had a bunch of good entries.

The winner is: Jacob's elegant entry combining lots of different elements.

In joint second place: Stephen4Louise with his 4-rooms-in-one entry, and Rheb, aka Rasmus Björling with his cyclic entry.

In third place, Rob aka Pinnacle, with his dark and moody room.

Congrats everyone at making some really good rooms.

I'd say this is one of the best architect contest ever! The quality of the contest holds were very high overall. And I had much fun playing through all of them.

Well done to all participating! And especially Jacob, (even though I never managed to get through your hold) I can easily say you're a worthy winner! :P

Edit: OK 1 goblin left in Jacobs room... :no
So, is it possible to use the decoy in the north east part of the room?

Not only are they all useable, they're all required. (At least, I needed all three.)

I haven't played most of the holds in this competition due to lack of time, but I did manage to play Jacob's. Very cool.
