Alright so... we've had some time to nominate the levels, and now, it's time to allow a chance to play the levels so you can all decide which levels to vote for!
These levels come from a variety of sources. The majority are compiled level packs; some are individual level files, and in one case it's a DAT level pack. If anyone isn't sure how to open any of these, please ask rather than neglecting to try some of the entries.
Here is the list of nominated levels (sorted by
pack as it's easier to find them all this way) and where to find them. Levels that exist as individual standalone levels are listed at the end. All of the nominated levels are NeoLemmix levels except for one traditional Lemmix level; this one has been marked as such.

http://www.lemmingsforums.net/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=2086.0;attach=4461* This level is for regular Lemmix, not NeoLemmix
** This level needs the music file which can be downloaded here.Some NeoLemmix packs may exist as EXE files; these can just be downloaded and played. Those that exist as NXP files should be played with
NeoLemmix V1.37n or higher. Single levels can be loaded in NeoLemmix V1.37n by selecting them when starting NeoLemmix (or by dragging-and-dropping them onto NeoLemmix.exe), or by loading them in the editor then using playtest mode (if configured), or in NeoCustLemmix V1.36n (or earlier) by pressing F6 from the title screen then selecting the level.
Voting will open around the start of January 15th 2016 (UTC).
As a reminder, the prize will be US $15 for first place, and US $7.50 for second place. Swapping for non-monetary prizes of the kinds seen in previous contests can be discussed between me and any winners who wish to do so. For more detailed info on this (such as what happens if a winner can't be contacted) see the
LOTY2015 announcement topic.
So... let the playing begin, and may the best level (of 2015) win!
