Topic, Game "Puzzle It"

  I think the way you rate is the way you should rate. If you would rate a level less than 3, it would mean the level should not have been accepted.

  Never noticed, that is an amazing rating. Even if we are to generous it is still amazing.
Personally I almost only give out 4s and 5s, in extreme cases a 3, and old levels never lower than the current rating since the level designs have evolved over the years.

This is of course not the right way to use the scale but I like to be generous with the rating and it seems like most does the same.

  Thank you guys!
@Teazer: I'll try to create more levels (without any effect on the designer score of course) :-)

  That might be true, but in my eyes, every single level of him (there aren't too many anyway) is worth 5/5.

  I would like to congratulate him, but in my eyes that also means that the people are way too generous with their ratings.

Congratulations anyway!

  Nice, congratulations! :D Svart once had such a rating in BB2, not anymore though.

  pudelmuetzennashorn has 5/5...

  I love the picture of the avatar. Oh, and I'm going to make a special lvl because i'm close to getting 20,000 EXP. I'm catching up on P4Mouse and Puzzleit.

  Lol 483 moves.^^ Congratulations nonehteless! :)

  i got it too. it was not that easy. i had to selve Disorganize. shameful score btw.

  Yay, I just got it! :3

  I just added a new award for completing 2000 levels. Artwork is made by Treazer.

  I just realized ToughMan has the highscore in every single official level of Puzzle It, but with one exception, A Study In Red which he didn't complete yet because he only manages to do it in 23 moves (not 20).

That's astonishing, well done! :)

  Regarding the name of the new award, perhaps 'Manic Puzzler'?

  This is very cool! I hope everybody is fine with that. :)

  I could easily do that for everyone. I'll create the packs and keep the highscores in a forum. The only problem I see is when to start the level cutoff, as timezone differences can change what "June 1" actually is (A level created at 1AM June 1 in one timezone might be 10PM May 31 in another), but I'd probably use my timezone as the cutoff as an easy fix.

I'll get started on everything right away!

  Perhaps we could make a monthly pack instead of a weekly one. The first pack would contain all the levels of June and then fight for the highscores.

We would have more time and there would be more levels to get highscores on.

  Probably to late for the pack now but at least I know till next time.

  Okay, here's the link to download the picture. :)

  It's fine as it is.

  Okay, do you want me to make any changes, Simon?

  playing this game again

  "uncompleted" is almost as short as "unplayed". Anyway, I like the left one better.

  I think omr meant something else, gis. The unsolved levels are called unplayed for no good reason actually.
Unsolved is a way better name. It was my suggestion to have such a tab (I guess Shiro suggested it once as well), but my name was "not completed" which was too long so jp had to find a shorter word.

  Quoting dingdong from Game "BLockoban"

  why are the unsolved levels called "unplayed"? i played them hundreds of times.

  So, 2 for sticky patches, 2 for without. Let's Simon decide. :)

Regarding the packs, it's easy to miss new packs as a game administrator, you better write Simon a message so he can approve your pack.

  I prefer the right one with borders included.

On an unrelated matter I'm wondering where you can get a hold of the level packs you make. Made one fore the challenge a couple days ago but it seems like it just gone up in smoke.

  I certainly agree with the award. As a concept it gives a good incetive to members to keep playing and enjoying the games. 2000 is an excellent award considering the game is new in the community. Thanks to Treazer for the designs. I'd go for the first one (left) as I'm more of simple things.

  I'd go with the second one, but I don't need the border, I'd only like to have the sticky patches.

Let's hear what the others say. :)
