This hold is my first hold, and it is really easy. If you want something harder, try Journey to the Goblin Kingdom, a harder hold. I am also making an even harder hold.

Hey, where's the download? Is it CaravelNet only?

Looks like there might be a slight forum bug with posted holds recently. I'll let Schik know.

Game on,

It's the same with all three of the latest holds submitted. This one, Journey to the Goblin Kingdom v.1.5 and TAPAKAHbI YCATbIE 2 (Cockroaches with a moustache). Not only don't the downloads appear in their respective threads, but you also get an error if you try to download from the Holds Download page on the website. Looks like the in game download is the only way to get these right now.

I've fixed the three holds, and hopefully fixed the problem so it doesn't occur again.

Yep, something strange going on with the scores for this one.

icon Re: J'nis Tomb v.2.9.7 Spider rejecting scores (+1)  
I just scored 3 new #1s in this hold, switched over and updated a score in another hold, then came back and scored 2 more #1s and a #1 tie. All my scores for this hold were rejected by the spider, my updated score for the other hold was accepted. None of my rejected scores were for obvious reasons. There seems to have been a problem in the past with this hold. I suspect there still is.

EDIT:
Never mind, upgrading to the latest patch seems to have done the trick. The spider accepted the scores.

This is my favourite easy hold that I have played. Lots of good rooms here, even though most of them just involve lots of hack and slash.

Only con is that it's a little bit messy-looking.

This was indeed a decently easy hold, but more work was put into it than most.

That being said, I found some of the scripting confusing (do I, or do I not kill this goblin /this time/?) and overall, as the above poster said, it was kind of messy. It looked like doors had been tacked upon doors and room layout (for a level) was bizarre at times.

I did have fun with a variety of the puzzles, however, and am thankful to have a hold like this to run through. So thanks!
