Congrats namida on your contest win!

Also congrats to Crane for your second place win as well

Both of these were amazing levels!

Quite interesting shares Shmolem and mobius. I have actually had that happen to me several times when I ask myself if I'm actually dreaming, and moments where I truly did want a sequel to some of my dreams... here are some examples!

A couple of nights ago I had a dream where I want to say I was part of some competition or the like, and the competition was to get something from the insides of a temple that I swear was right out of the opening scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark. In fact I even remember saying out loud to the group I was in, "Hey, that's one of the best scenes from the movie!" Anyway I managed to get through the temple (no memory of it except for some weird masks piled in hallways), grab the item (I don't even remember what it was but it wasn't the golden idol from the movie), and got out. I managed to do it without breaking a sweat and come out of the temple victorious and holding up the item in front of the group I was with.

Last night was a completely different experience. I had a dream that I was going to work and I apparently I couldn't remember where anything was. I did find my bed in a place that was totally not in real life and this huge wave of exhaustion came over me that I decided to lay in the bed, try to sleep, and didn't even care. I had a similar experience to mobius's dream where I began to feel the pillows and covers around me and realized that I was both in the dream and in real life at the same time.

Sometimes I wonder if maybe my dreams are trying to tell me something. I don't believe that's the case all the time but at the same time we don't really know much about dreams so who's to say? Maybe these two alone are telling me that it's time to make a change in my life: time to get out of bed, go into the temple (metaphor for the unknown?), and come out with some type of accomplishment. Hmm...

This is when I want the dream sequels

Finally played through the Fun and Tricky ratings of this pack (my solutions are attached below). Very impressive levels! My favorites so far are definitely "Signs to Guide You" and "Home is Where the Heat is" with interesting and well thought out solutions.

The new styles update should now have all the custom pickups updated to work on 12.6

If anyone needs help getting these to work on 12.7 when the time comes please let me know and I'll be happy to do my best in lending a hand.

I changed the title of the thread to match this new name. Hope that's okay

What's the most embarrassing thing that has ever happened to you?

Sorry to say that I don't agree with Simon's proposal #5. I don't like being narrowed minded on things and I always believed "just because you can doesn't mean you should" to be true, but I don't think that applies in this case. Changing the nuke behavior so that it's just eye-candy is going to break levels that use the nuke as part of the solution. This is probably worthy of another debate but I never really had a problem nuke solutions. In my mind it was always logical, and you can make some pretty insane and memorable levels with it. The nuke just assigns a "timed bomber" to all lemmings, and a nuke solution takes advantage of that in the same way someone would take advantage of blockers to turn other skills around as an example. Of course, this falls under the same category of every other type of trick in the book that if you are going to do it make sure it isn't stupidly precise or unfair, but yeah that's the case for everything else anyway.

So anyway: I'm also in favor of having the nuke affect everyone equally

Earlier today I did a stream of this contest and I managed to solve every level (with some help from chat) except Minim's Rule 1 level. I have attached all of my successful replays below

I'm planning on streaming the Contest 18 levels this Sunday (September 15) at 17:30 UTC

I might also stream tomorrow (September 14) around the same time, but I'm not 100% sure yet. I'll make another post here if I do
