I think the "every tile has to be in contact with another" rule was followed really poorly last round. I've only seen a few maps that 100% follow it. I worked really hard to make sure I followed this rule. I'm a tad annoyed to be honest :/

But anyway, I have two questions about this round. First, does adding an NReality mod count as a remix? I'll even move a few objects around to boot. And secondly, for theme, are we getting judged on how different it is to the original, how similar it is to the original... or are we simply not supposed to know and just find out?

Here is my entry for Round III. I remade my first map. It was really funny to remake it.

@NachoCheese:
1st: The rules say you have to change either tiles or gameplay, so if you do add a mod, you surely do change gameplay. Nevertheless keep in mind, that your remix should be clearly better than one of your first three maps (which shouldn't be hard to achieve, now you're more experienced).

2nd: It doesn't need to be similar to the original - we don't give any points for that. Actually in most cases the more you change, the more you improve.

@all: Please also post a link to the map you retiled/re-objected, so we can check.

Results for round 2 will be posted at the end of this week.

I hope i'm allowed to submit this, considering it was made a month ago...

Nmaps.net

Also, to The Black Lion, you've titled yourself as 'TBC' instead of 'TBL' in a few of the map results for round 1. I know you've done it in mine, and a few others. Just thought I'd let you know ^^

I suppose you meant "only D-tiles count as empty tiles".

Or only E-tiles are full? Sorry, i didn't get it.

Would this map follow all the rules.




It is not my submission. I am just using it for reference.

Damn, i've just figured out i did count them false! There is 306 E and 407 D Tiles!
Shall i change it by adding 50 E - Tiles, or is it valid like this?

That is why I decline the title of Iron Cook and accept only the lesser title of Zinc Saucier, which I just made up. Also, it comes with double prize money!

Sorry for all this confusion, it was a typo. It was supposed to say "only D-tiles (light grey tiles, those you can pass, which aren't filled with anything, etc.) count as empty-tiles". Updated announcement post.

Approximately means +- 10 tiles, so I think you should change it. This time you get the permission to do so, but usually submitted maps mustn't be changed.

Yeah, it perfectly would.
