Tom, I'd give you a style rating 0
000
For this never ending blog-thing!
John, don't ever worry about whatever other people could think about your levels!!!!!!!!!!
They ARE just GREAT! No matter what people would rate, I just LOVE your levels or whatever you could create, your levels are so much fun to solve and they are always a real challenge!!!!!!
And with a big hug from Switzerland

Man, LCD Watch Space Time would make an awsome font.
Also, your washer/dryer may be the source of some form of space radiation. I suggest to look for the "Made in ____" sticker. It may in fact be from another planet/celestial body. |

Oh god that looks weird. *grins* But it might be useful.. I guess... *giggles* |

Glad to see there's recovery. |

Style rating of 0 seems pretty extreme for any level... I don't think I've ever rated a level 0, since I could always imagine a level being worse (but on the other hand, once it gets bad enough like "EXPERTS ONLY!!!" it starts to get good again, in a way...). My guess is more like someone is rating 0 when he feels a level is overrated, not that he thinks that level specifically deserves a 0. I'd discourage this practice but I don't want ratings to be taken too seriously, since they are in a way fundamentally flawed. The tags based system that I'm working on should pretty much supersede ratings. |

I guess when I saw it, my first reaction (especially considering how radically different the solution for the new level is from the original) was, "I'll bet almost anything that this person would give 'Rouge-Like-Like' and 'Bigger Waste of Time' style ratings of '1.'" But a difficulty rating of 3? Talk about overkill. |

Maybe someone just doesn't like mods, or didn't feel it was different enough. I've "taken points off" for not being different enough in the past. (And in retrospect, of course, some of my mods which I thought were interesting at the time wouldn't meet my own standards now.)
Anyway, it's just someone's opinion, it's not personal (presumably), and it's not any less valid than yours. Why worry about it? People have different tastes... |

In response to all the comments above about level rating, I must speak up regarding this, as I have received a style rating of 0 and a difficulty rating of 3 on "Just Enough," a mod of an existing level that had a style rating of 8 and a difficulty rating of 7. I honestly can't understand what the queso is so wrong with the level that would warrant such abysmal ratings.
Thoughts, anyone? |

Well, I think I was one of the first to use computers to make levels, so obviously I'm in support of it... I think what ultimately matters is that the level that comes out is good, not that it's made by computer or human. It would be really easy to churn out thousands of moderately difficult computer-generated levels, but they would all basically be the same and not very fun. But it's also possible to churn out loads of easy and/or annoying human-made levels, as we can witness in the Minor Leagues. ;) So for me, the computer is just one of many tools that can be used to author good levels, and like any tool used for authorship, must be used tastefully. I like the convention of noting when a computer was used to make the level, in the interests of accurate credit.
What is the nature of your "battle"? You seem to like at least some of the computer-assisted levels... |
| |
Thanks P! I guess I never know which ones people will like... IMO the punching in and out (a consequence of the badly structured guitar) is kind of annoying on that one. |
| |
I've totally fallen in love with You Were Injured. I love how I always learn new words from your AADs, like sobriquet (from #20) and now clarion. Keep up the great work! |

I'd love to know more about computer assisted levels and your attitude towards the battle "kirima" versus "computer assisted" levels....
?
I'm just Kirima, and I'm certainly not computer-assisted |
| |
Mine's okay, just quiet! I helped Mike get his back up and running, but there might be something wrong with the computer, we're not sure... and he's in San Francisco! |

Is your server out too? Can't you help your room mate? |

Cool, thanks! I've seen some of my stuff on Tshirt Hell before, so it seems they downloaded my whole collection at some point... |
| |
Wow, thanks Spinlock!
I also wrote a second novel that I think is better than the first. You can find it at tom7.org/novel2/. I mostly do Album-a-Day stuff, but since I've been so slow doing that maybe I can get more into songfight, we'll see... |
| |
Hah. Read a novel as a result of a songfight. Wasn't expecting that. Also wasn't expecting it to be good. Surprised. Reminds me of a more energetic Adams. . . Love the time travelling lawyer.
Also, do more songfights.
Cheers.

Random dbz font spotting:
Looks like Tshirt Hell had that used Two Turtle Doves (with some minor changes like different O's). It was a limited edition, but you can see the design on the wayback machine (NSFW profanity):
