Lemmings Plus III Level Voteoff (Winner: Rough 7 "Hardwired!")

[namida]

Okay, so Synergistic Effect is our winner for this round! (My vote was Extra Skill Required.)

New round is up!

[Minim]

Interesting! I've only just voted and in less than three hours I think we have a consensus already, given the small number of users in the forum anyway. I voted for Hardwired, and now it's 4-1 Hardwired last time I looked.

[namida]

Yep, that's probably one of the closest-to-unanimous rounds in any of the voteoffs so far. So yep, Rough 7 "Hardwired!" is our winner!

Now, this next round will be interesting, since I don't know that many people have been able to solve Fierce 13...

[namida]

Alright, clear winner here (3 to 1) is Fierce 13 "Crossover Arena".

Semi-final is now up! Remember, you're allowed two votes this time.

[namida]

So, our qualifiers for the finals are

Dodgy 8 "Synergistic Effect"
Rough 7 "Hardwired!"

Finals are up, may the best level win!


By the way, a thought I had the other day - what do people think about the idea of having voteoffs like this for the *official* games? Or has it been done at some point?

[namida]

Alright, so our winner is Rough 7 "Hardwired!"

Bonus round is up.

[Minim]

They're both very colourful levels, but my vote went to Panic Attack. The more skills, the more interesting the level, but still, not too easy either. I like the 2-minute time limit as well, which is just right for the hardest difficulty area.

Looks like this is going to be a completely comprehensive victory for one of the levels. 5-0 Panic Attack so far!

[namida]

Alright, well we definitely have a clear winner here. Genius 8 "Panic Attack" still retains the title of my best level ever!

I'll leave this topic open a bit longer in case anyone wants to add extra comments, as well as for feedback on my earlier question - would you guys like to see a similar voteoff for the official games?

[Minim]

I probably would like it, but maybe arrange the poll differently this time? For example, instead of selecting a list from each difficulty, having all the Level 1s, 2s, etc together to see which is the best of each level? If this works out well we could even make a level pack showing our favourite levels (although on second thought the learning curve would be too steep e.g. Just Dig followed by the Boiler Room. )

[namida]

I was going to keep the same format since it's familiar now, but if people think a different format would work better (perhaps even random selections of levels for each round, rather than in order?), I can do that.

[namida]

Okay, I'm going to close this topic now. I'll probably do the voteoffs for the official games sometime soon - maybe running them in parallel rather than one at a time - once I come up with exactly how I'll do them (since yes, there are some weaknesses in the current format of doing it rank by rank). If you want to suggest anything for it, PM me.


I'll do a LPIII Bonus Pack voteoff at some point in the future, but obviously not this soon after release.
