I feel the same way. Here I sit with 935 of 1009 solved and just keep solving puzzels so I can stay caught up. There are some levels I think I will save until I grow old and retire and still probably never solve.
Levels with a million buttons/bots ect in an effort to make it difficult are not as rewarding to solve because they are solved more by brute force rather than logic. I like levels where you can basically see what has to be done but have to figure out how to do it. If that makes any sense. There are alot of great levels out there already and it is hard to come up with something unique. However some of the new group of level makers are making some good levels too. I am guessing the pro's did not start out with their best stuff either. Originally I thought I should not upload a level until it was polished, but as it were most of mine were not anyway. Now however, I think it is probably better to get new ideas out there and see what others can do with them. |

I'd love to give something back, too! I'm keeping on trying to create interesting levels, I'm working on it, but I'm not satisfied of what I'm doing and I'd only upload levels that would make a certain sense - to at least myself. It's so easy to create silly levels, but so really hard to figure out a real escape-challenge! I guess you all know what I'm talking about.
One of my problems is: those silly levels are not an inspiration at all, on the contrary, playing too many of those make me feel as if the game itself would be kind of silly as well... It's just not motivating at all. Whereas great levels always indicate more great ideas! Great levels make me feel as if I'd work in a just superbe team of level-creators and I'd love to participate and to contribute something so that the game itself could continue to grow-up.
I wonder how others feel? I noticed that the "pros" haven't created any new levels for at least a few weeks or months. And I'm wondering what could be the reason for it? John Lewis? Max?
I didn't edit any levels recently, because of this kind of "anti-motivation". I've kept on playing, so today there are 51 not solved levels left for me. Levels that I just can't solve... And I feel kind of like quitting. I won't, but for the moment, it just feels like I'd want to stop being one of those escape-freaks.
I always thought that this game is incredibly growing and interacting and worth while continuing to play and to be part of the crew! But right now, I feel kind of lost and not too interested in the game any more.
I would not want to quit! And I'd miss it. But I'm really, surely, honestly not motivated any more.
No, in fact, I'm already missing something.

Nice scale bar. |

I think we should start a fundraiser to get Tom 7 a new server or at least a bigger hard drive so he doesnt have to keep freeing up space just so we all can keep upload and playing this great game for free. By the way thanks Tom 7. Just trying to give something back!! |

Good question. Yes, running definitely needs a soundtrack. I believe that my mp3 player had just started over from the beginning at that point, which means it was probably "Use It" by the New Pornographers! |

Earphones and MP3 player for the big race... Very good. So what song were you listening to as you crossed the finish line, and did you plan to be listening to it at that moment?

so where's the update? |

I also thought of some sort of psychedelic mushroom farm... |
| |
Perhaps you can fund the repairs process by first shooting a genre film down there. |

We're in the process of buying a home that was foreclosed. It sat without power for about 10 months during which the basement flooded off & on- plus there is evidence that it's always been a wet basement in general. We had a home inspection done & our inspector instructed us to completely GUT the basement. Anything that's wood that can come out has to be removed, everything has to be power-washed, sterilized, & thoroughly dried out- then we have to paint it with a special paint. I don't know all the procedures & products since I don't have that info in front of me- but I do know he said to wear face masks that filter out at least 3 micron particles. Plus we were down in the basement yesterday and I noticed there's tons of mushrooms all over that weren't there before!! I guess now I'll also be wearing a full body suit too. They are SOOO creepy!

We're all waiting for new topics or items. I could load up a new one, what do you think about the weather in Europe? It's raining all the time...
Or we could talk about soccer? |

I rule them all and they are none the wiser!
