(UPDATE) - Work begun on level Noid's Lair.
(UPDATE) - Mirages altered a bit. (You still can't access it, testers, though).

(FIX) - Boss properly activates on Noid's Lair.
(FIX) - Numerous typos and stuff.

(COMMENT) - I need help! Check out my topic (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/cgi-bin/ubb/postdisplay.cgi?forum=Forum54&topic;=000346")here(/url) if you're any good at solving problems concerning tiles not appearing correctly... :frown:

Thanks. I got the email. Now carry on testing! 🙂

Sorry Malc I've been away, and I'm going away again next week until 6th July so I won't be able to do any testing - I've still got OV's testing to do as well. I'll take my portable with me and if I get the chance I'll do some but don't hold your breath. This time of year is a bit hectic for me.

That's ok; I'm quite used to having no beta activity now. Ever since Nova's been released... :frown: 😉

(UPDATE) ferazel(_09) has sent in a level. 🙂 Look for it in Malcolm's World! You can identify it from the sign in the beginning stating I made it.

And lucky all you Ferazel's Wand boarders, I'm back..with my old name.

And that level's almost 'finished', meaning that I've almost connected it properly to the other levels. (The reason it's taking so long is because I'm working on getting all the other levels that are going to go out with 1.16 done and I'm also trying to get some Rebel string done and right now that level's not at the top of my priority list. :))

ANN: ferazel_09 has become a key part in the creation of (url="http://"http://homepage.mac.com/mdwgmalc/")Malcolm's World(/url), and, because of all the levels he's created and given to me, he has now become a co-creator. (And no, there won't be any more co-creators: this won't be another OBW ;)) Therefore, we have decided to rename the World because it's not just my World any more. 🙂 (url="http://"http://homepage.mac.com/mdwgmalc/")Malcolm's World's(/url) new name is... Xichra's Revenge!

Now, if only moderators could rename topics... 😉

I hope it lasts; we've lost too many members. :frown:

But on a happier note, I've got a nice logo. It's supposed to be in .tiff format, but Internet Explorer can't view tiffs properly, so I took a screenshot of it and made it a .jpg file. Unfortunately that meant all transparencies were lost, but it's okay. Sorta. 🙂

If you have a good browser like OmniWeb ( ;)) then you can see the .tiff image (url="http://"http://homepage.mac.com/mdwgmalc/.Pictures/xichrasrevenge.tiff")here(/url).

Darn, now everyone will know that you made those two banners for (url="http://"http://drtalll.tripod.com/domination.html")Domination, a really fun game. I have a link somewhere, I really do.(/url)

Unless of course, they bothered to check out the (url="http://"http://drtalll.tripod.com/domination.html")Read-me file.(/url)

I like the name (url="http://"http://drtalll.tripod.com/domination.html")Xichra's Revenge(/url). Also, its abbreviation, (url="http://"http://drtalll.tripod.com/domination.html")XR(/url) is stylish.

Oh, by the way. I checked out your site, Malcolm. If you want free polls and stuff, like the ones I have on my (url="http://"http://drtalll.tripod.com")site(/url), I used HTMLGear. It is a lycos site, and you can get all the Gears there for free. I don't actually have a link, but if you view one of my gears, and click on the image beneath it, you will be taken to their site.

You have no idea. Apparently you've never been the owner of DrugLord.

Are you EVula now or something?

(Sorry about how off topic this is, I just couldn't resist)

I want to die peacefully in my sleep like grandpa; Not yelling and screaming like the passangers in his car.

(ANN) - 1.16 has finally been released! 🙂

I found one bug, though... The Pentagon isn't complete yet, but I sent it out anyway! :redface: :frown:

But never mind, eh? because all our testers look at this topic every single day and so will all see this message before they even play, and therefore won't waste their time trying to complete the level, and so will send even more bug reports than usual!

/Sarcasm 😛 😄

Woo! A39 ( The Crossing ) has been touched-up. It'll be released with the next beta version. I need to do more work on A10 ( Mysterious Shadows ) then make The Blackmarket.

Life is good, especially since all my teachers keep forgetting to give me homework! 😄

Yeah, serious topic digging, anyway, in your level (suggest level names please) whats the level like, describe the level.

Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are not even capable of forming such opinions.

Evil and Cruel and Big and Mean.

Or, as spamguy would put it, Mean-Bastardly 😄

But you should ask ferazel; he made the level!

Which Ferazel? Ferazel_999 or ferzel09

Me, of course. I mean, look at my signature! 😛

Anyway, It's a medium-hard level on the Labryninth foreground and the snowey mountain background. There's nothing special about it except the secret exit. You can ask me questions about it, if you need to.
