  AK i think you missed my point, i dont want levels that are kids with 100 moves moved to easy or hard, i want them removed or fixed.

  @Jynx: Actually, I've had that thought since I joined almost 2 years ago. Problem is, some levels with tons of moves are so easy you know what every move is, while some small levels with only 3 moves is so hard, it takes you 30 tries to get. Quantity of the moves is not always an indicator of the difficulty. I agree with your reasoning, in fact I wanted any kids level with more than 20 moves to be moved to easy, but still, the fact remains that even with a lot of moves, sometimes it's still kids, or easy, or whatever.

  SB, Welcome to the game! Or even a different planet! :P
You must experiment thoroughly with levels on this game - complete some officials, then create your own! Find the best route you can then upload it! So you can get a low score on your level! Now just put that in to practice on the officials! :)

Again, Welcome to BB, I'm Manufan call me that or Manu, and be sure to check out some of my levels and other people's!

  Well, SB, people have a very low score, because people play this game for a long time. Or just had luck with that particulary level.
Please enjoy blockoban, also try to make levels!

  Hello Blockobaneers i'm semi new to the world of Blockoban but i still can't work out how some of u guys/girls get such low scores. I try my absolute hardest to find the shortest route but just can't do it, i feel like i'm missing something lol

Some help/guidance would be great =]]]

  Man I remember when Pauloalex used to yell at me for spamming and while I do leave a lot of comments, 870 since I started playing, Chris you have almost 7000. Gulp.

  Camodragoon has contributed to this game a lot. I learned a lot of tricks the past months. That's why i've solved over 3650.

  I just had an interesting thought... I wonder if I am being elitist or if its a good idea. What if we as a community had a rule as follows:

Easy levels must be able to be solved in under 36 moves, and medium levels 72 moves. The purpose being that an if a level is easy there really aren't more then 10 or so moves where you are actually thinking... so there should be a limit to the tediousness.

  @oldmanrob It is really hard or even impossible to slide the cursor to page two. But if you click to the right of it it will step one page at a time. Done
Ferrari12 13 years ago
  You don't have to drag the page selector, if you click to the right/left of it, it will automatically move on page to the right/left :)
oldmanrob 13 years ago
  Maybe it's just me or my mouse but i can't move to page 2 at newly commented levels. The space i have to move is too slight. :(

  Hey Guys! Sorry about not making some levels recently... I have just started Secondary School and times are getting a tiny bit tougher...

I've just returned after a week and a half and seen the big controversy around Obscurity, and I guess it's time I put my two cents in the machine. :P

  I'm not complaining. Just trying to answer the question asked.
oldmanrob 13 years ago
  Imo we should stop complaining about the category chosen by the creator. With one ecception, if a lavel labled "kids" seams too hard for kids we shluld ask the creator if he/she is sure about his/hers chose.

  Jyxz, I catorgize my levels based on how I perceive it compared to other similar levels. A large part is also based on the type of level. To me anything that I create that resembles the type of level I have trouble solving gets a higher difficulty. The ones that are the same old same old get an easier designation.
So, all that said, deciding the difficultly of a level you have created is based on your perception of that type of level, the comparison to similar levels created by others, and how you have improved the style.
Set a difficulty to how it feels best to you. If nothing else others will tell you their opinion and you can judge from there.
gameinsky 13 years ago
  Based on all levels.
(Blockobaneers are better at solving puzzles than average people)
Jyxz 13 years ago
  When deciding what difficulty a level is should it be based on all levels or just your own?

16 official levels now. All levels are great. I must say I'm a big fan of Psychotronic's levels (thx Psycho). When a level is "only" accepted, it doesn't mean it will not be official one day, it's just I'm not sure for now.
