New CHAIN Level - Let's DO it!

majic1 · Post by **majic1** » Sat Apr 03, 2004 2:17 am

Here's the beginning (or ending) of a new chain level. I've started from the exit so we can work outwards (hence, the comment, "or ending"). I don't think we'll be limited to only 5 sections this way, if you start (or end actually) your level from where Stinky begins on the previous level.

So, as a reminder, here are the ground rules:

1. Play the previous section(s). If you have problems finishing or figuring it out, contact the author. THEN:

2. Begin your section AT THE POINT where Stinky is on the previous section. (But remember, in this chain, this is where he should END in YOUR section!

3. DO NOT CHANGE, REMOVE, ADD TO OR ALTER any previous section(s) in any way, shape or form.

4. When a new section is added and you wish to carry it on, IMMEDIATELY POST THIS FACT (to prevent two or more people picking it up at the same time).

5. You should probably add a row of empty space (or wall "x's" around your section where possible - when adding on to the other sections, it's easier to see where other sections should end & begin.

OKAY - ol'gramma, eeyore, discgolfer (oh my), sharonm, jg, carolyn,popo, malc, freightrain, bigzipz, davidmad, and on and on and one - ADD ON! This is a VERY simple start. I didn't use any of the things you can only use ONCE, so you guys can have at it. FEEL FREE TO CHANGE THE BACKGROUND, MUSIC, ETC. to fit your fancy!!! (Over the course of time, it should be interesting to see how everything changes!)

Hi Everyone,
I have the 2nd piece I can add on Saturday afternoon....... or sometime later.
Since it is almost time for us here in the US to get our jammies on, and you across the big pond are just about to wake up, one of you may want to have a go at this right away.

Feel free to post part 2 if you finish a piece, but post your intent OK?

Nice 2nd part Carolyn! (And thank you for adding on more time - something we ALL missed in the first one!)

Can't wait to see what others will add!!!!

Ok....I will put you out of your misery

I was going to let someone (anyone?) else do the next part, but you do seem a teeny bit worried.

And since I don't have a mean bone in my body

I will tell you that there are 4 coins in this part. Oh, and I added 2 coins to Carolyns part.

Enjoy

Carolyn · Post by **Carolyn** » Sun Apr 04, 2004 1:12 pm

Very good jg... that's where I was gonna put the coins.. Thank you very much for doing that for me...

... I love your level... I had a time finding the of the 2 coins...

... Again thanks for your help on my level.....

Okay, I'm sorry I didn't tell anyone I was going to do this, so if anyone else has done one they can give me a slap - ouch!

My bit's very easy, no puzzles, just a few ghosts that need exorsising

BTW I've put a bit more time on the clock.

Carolyn · Post by **Carolyn** » Sun Apr 04, 2004 3:21 pm

Nice part popo... I got thru your part, jg's part then messed up on my part...

... I did something very stupid...

... Goes to show u what I know... NOTHING!!!...

... My brain has not adjusted to day light saving time... Of this .. I am sure....

Jersey · Post by **Jersey** » Sun Apr 04, 2004 6:05 pm

OK, majic1, here's my contribution!

BTW the first 4 are pretty good, so I hope mine's up to snuff!

janetgalle · Post by **janetgalle** » Sun Apr 04, 2004 6:11 pm

Great addition Popo. I was scratching my head trying to figure out why I didn't have enough boxes......figured that out and then had to contend with just a few ghosts

I've got to go try Jerseys part now.

Wonderful! HOWEVER, somehow a wall (I think accidentally) suddenly appeared in my part (the exit section) that wasn't there up through part 4 - you can't finish the level with this wall in that spot!! I think, most likely, jersey accidentally inserted it without even knowing - I've DONE THAT MYSELF before (fingers slip)! Anyway, I've fixed it and am uploading the corrected version! I believe this chainlevel has turned out wonderfully good! (Could still add on I guess, just no more signs!) Yippeee!

Carolyn · Post by **Carolyn** » Sun Apr 04, 2004 6:44 pm

Yes... the wall on Majic's part... I thought I was doing something wrong... Will down load this new version... and play it again... haha...

I was trying and trying to figure it out... Thanks Majic for setting me stright..

Hey ladies. Please forgive this intrusion by a man into the Wonderland Women's Institute for a moment.

Sorry to report this but after Jersey's addition, the wall on the left where Popo's section starts has been moved, negating the need to 'solve' the boulder puzzle and revealing the 2 hidden coins.

***OB runs away and hides***

Yikes! Sorry, it must have happened when I opened the original Chainfun1234, just as the cat jumped on my lap! I didn't even notice it when I double checked the level before I saved my part.

Where?!?!? I have the original 1234, my addition (chainlevel12345) which I then changed to chainlevel5 (which majic1 had to change) I don't understand what wall you are talking about on the left hand side of popo's section. The only place that I joined hers was at the entrance by the single step bridge...uh oh!

...uh...be right back (Jersey dashes out the door with her tail between her legs...

*Sheepishly pokes her head back in the door*

I must have accidentally overwritten popo's hidden coins without even noticing it...my HUMBLEST APOLOGIES *Jersey is down on her knees begging for forgiveness*

I'm going back in to fix this really bad boo-boo on my part. Again, I apologize!

Carolyn · Post by **Carolyn** » Sun Apr 04, 2004 7:21 pm

Jersey... your part was very good .... I liked it... The whole chain was fun and I enjoyed very much being in it... think all the parts were good... I think we need to start another one... Majic's idea to start at the end was brilliant!!!... that was the best idea of all..

Jersey · Post by **Jersey** » Sun Apr 04, 2004 7:25 pm

Don't turn the KaBooms loose on me, popo!

It wasn't my intention to write over someone else's contribution, but when I added my section, I must have erased your wall by accident.

I went back and doublechecked my addition, and the level before that, and sure enough, in living color, there was the error.

I fixed the mistake, and hope to Loof that I haven't messed anyone else's addition up too with my clumsy fingers!

*********************

Thanks for catching that mistake, OB.

majic1 · Post by **majic1** » Sun Apr 04, 2004 7:27 pm

Yeah - starting with the exit is a little more fun because you can always finish! Well, Carolyn, you're very good at level making - soooooooooo how about YOU starting the next chain?

(Please!)

majic1 · Post by **majic1** » Sun Apr 04, 2004 7:29 pm

Thanks jersey! I'm going back right now to play the whole thing, beginning to end - see what kind of a score I can come up with!

Carolyn · Post by **Carolyn** » Sun Apr 04, 2004 7:32 pm

ok will do.... have to think on it for a bit...

.... of course my brain is in la la land cuz of the change in time last nite... I think my brain is still in bed... :

No mistake, just an accident. I think you did great considering the quality and experience of the authors designing this with you.

I'm not a level author but I do sometimes see things maybe even the author doesn't see. For instance, this may give you all something to think about...

The reflectors are not needed at all in this level...

Well, i didn't use them.

Really? I thought you had to use the one in Popo's level...although I didn't need them at all in Carolyn's.

How did you complete the level without using Popo's???

Carolyn · Post by **Carolyn** » Sun Apr 04, 2004 7:48 pm

Ahhhh I see... u did not need to use the reflectors in my part... I left you all an extra box....

... bad me!!!... next time I will not be so kind...

Oops! You got me. I forgot about that one. My turn to

btw. This whole level is really brilliant. If they keep improving at this rate, in 5 chains' time, they are going to be awesome.

If it's any consolation, Carolyn, I had to attempt your section 3 times before I figured it out...
