Meckmeck has said that using the "turn to monster" command uses also the monster in addition to the character.

Sure hope so :)

I think the next one will be the last one, so can I request that it has an untiltime telling us when it will expire?

The final offer !

Fuse (4 pieces)           : 1   Greckles
Bomb                      : 2,5 Greckles
Mothers                   : 6   Greckels 
Seeps                     : 2   Greckels 
Golem                     : 1,5 Greckels 


Random monsters (???) :  (15 to 40 Greckles)
Random items    (???) :  (15 to 40 Greckles)

You can buy all of the 3 random packs, but not more than 1 of a type.

Offer is outdated. The barter phase is over.

Does this mean we will not be able to trade with each other after the barter phase is over?

The barter phase is over. Now you canīt buy or sell things anymore. Iīll now make a summary about how much things anybody has and Ill post this summary sooner or later here, so everybody can look what he/she has. (I donīt think its an unfair advantage to know what the others have)

And here it is !

Aw, darn. Guess I'll need to get rid of those red doors now. But at least seeing what I've got will be a benefit.

There's a reason it's called "Limited Resources", after all.

Jeff, why didnīt you just buy something ? It was quite simple to do. If you still want to play.... what about this : You get a supprise box which has the value of about 105 Greckles. If somebody thinks this is unfair, PM me or post it. If nobody is against this, Ill give Jeff the supprise box.

Edit : Jeff got his supprise box.

Sure thing - you don't build dungeons with greckles, you build them with force arrows, orbs, trapdoors and the like.

Hey, I wanna see what Jeff can do with 105 greckles worth of materials, I've no issues.

Also, can some fanciful person please translate the Excel file into something those of us without Excel can look at?

Thanks. I'll run my hold through Schik's magic monster counter, then work out the object count myself.

Oh, yes. I rule trapdoors!

It was a little bit of a letdown to know what everybody else has. But I care not! For I will somehow build a pretty hold. By the way, can it have multiple levels? I plan on including two levels (if that feature flies).

You have unlimited level entrances and stairs, so yes, it might be better if you do several small, themed levels instead of one big huge dungeon. I dunno. Whatever pleases the voters.

Overall, I've pretty much finished my dungeon, and just have to correct it, now that I know what I actually have. Overall, I would have liked it if I could have forced myself to keep track of everything, since most of my materials didn't end up getting used, and I probably should have planned things out. But for the first finished piece of work I've got, it's pretty good.

One question, MeckMeck: do we email our entries to you, and thus have our entries anonymous in the poll? Or do we publicly attach our holds?

In any case, I look forward to playing the compilation. :)

My husband got me the Open Source free office suite from OpenOffice.org it opens the file just fine.

Good thing I checked. My trapdoors were off by 160. I PM'd MeckMeck with the info. I would like to take this moment to thank MeckMeck for his great work on this months contest. :thumbsup

Wow. All right. Now I have 10 roaches, two queens, various other monsters, assorted orbs and bombs and potions and such, and positively zero holdbuilding experience. This should be funny, if nothing else.

The first post says to send the holds to MeckMeck. Although the holds won't need to be anonymous, as we know who has what.

Although..

question: Do we have to use everything we have?

another question: Are Master Walls free? They don't appear to be mentioned anywhere.

I corrected the mistakes in the spreadsheet.

Youll have to send me the holds via Email.
Master walls are free.

I don't think you do - you just have to not go over what you have.

Anyway, when are the holds due?

Here's a PDF. If you have relatively good eyesight (or a magnifying glass), you should be able to print this.

Hey Schik, can you get your hold-item-counter back up and running? It's kind of broken. I tried an AE hold in case that was the problem and it choked again.

I tried this but it showed me having 3 mimic potions and other stuff didn't have names. Guess I will just have to stand by my hand count. :weep
