Making a new level-pack, asking about it's release. 'nkb'

Well I'm making a level-pack, called 'never knows best'. And I'm struggling with how to release it. Part of me feels like 150/200 total maps will bore the player and or be too daunting. I'm also too lazy to make each 50 map episodes a stand alone column and would instead release them as one giant difficulty arc over all 3/4 episodes. And that makes me think that each separate episode would get boring because there would be little difficulty curve within each episode. Then the rest of me thinks that no one will be interested in the first place.

Edit: choose the 25 map format, and have begun releasing the pack: http://forum.therealn.com/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=4199

Please keep in mind that most of us just don't have time to play 200 maps, no matter how much we want to. Whatever you do, submit a few of them to NUMA over the weeks.

Packs of 25 would be good. It gives the player time to digest each section.

Voted for in packs of 25. But 20 would be better imo.

I say NUMA because you'll never get as much attention as you should otherwise.

I like big pack lumps, but I'd be happy with 50 or 25 as well. Just make a pack is the important thing.

I think a 10 episode, 3 maps per episode pack would be cool. You get that episodic feeling, while not being overwhelmed with a bunch of maps.
