Wonderlandful Level Idea

majic1 · Post by **majic1** » Sun Mar 21, 2004 3:00 am

This post is in the Levels Forum - ol'gramma suggested I also post it here
- ol'gramma is RIGHT - this is a BRILLIANT idea!

.... make a level that represents the state/country you are from. How about it everyone

Oh Carolyn - what a GREAT idea!!! And for those states not represented, we could volunteer to do one - oh - WOW - the COUNTRIES should be EXTREMELY interesting!!! Hope everyone reads this & participates!! Thanks ol'gramma!

HOW ABOUT IT ALL YOU CREATIVE WONDERLANDERS!!!

One more thought - if we can get all 50 states & as many countries as possible, we can request it be put in "It's a Small, Small World After All" level pak (like the Disneyland song that once you've heard it, will drive you totally NUTs for several days because you can't get it out of your mind!!)

Can i do England!

I lay claim to the Natural State- ARKANSAS- Home of the Razorbacks.

Sounds like an excellent final 9 weeks class project

ALRIGHT!! Bigzipz - you do England & Discgolfer will do Arkansas (at least a start on our 50 states!) I have this feeling that a LOT of people would like to do England - how about if you do the area you are in - and then everyone else can do their own area - I KNOW you have areas like that - you don't have states like we do, but you DO have Zones or something like that, right???

majic1 · Post by **majic1** » Sun Mar 21, 2004 6:15 am

I am REALLY looking forward to this - especially all the countries!! I am going to start a post on the Levels Forum just for these levels!

Hi majic1,

Seems a really fun idea for all of us level creators to have a go at

I'm English, however as I live in southern Spain, I'll see if I can come up with something for my province - Andalucia (more commonly known as the Costa-del-Sol)

In England the different regions (zones) are called Counties (i.e Kent, Yorkshire, Essex etc).

Best go and get me thinking cap on.........

Oh goody !!!! I get Pennsylvania !!!!!

I'll try to do it justice.

Well, I guess I'll do Denmark...

(It's just not very fun, since we DON'T have any exotic animals, only a small amount of snow in the winther and the summers are not to hot....etc ...etc... I think to others, it must be very borring......hmmm..... We DO have a lot of water and we DO have a lot of green fields..........maybe a puzlle with out to many evil creatures......hmmm)

I'll think about it!!!!!!

(GREAT idea though - looking foreward to see all the different kinds of levels this will inspire!)

Mmm! All I can think of for Yorkshire is flat caps and ferrets!!

Stinky and Loof both wear caps, so that's a start!

This is NOT going to be easy.

I've started Arkansas, unfortunately I lack the funding to complete the Interstate Highway system. Another concern is that I am being forced to consolidate several school small districts. Also, while making a level, I have never had to be worried about the water supply being affected by the run-off from poultry farms. To top it all off, everywhere I look there are Wal-Marts.

Okay I will have a go, nothing has came from me since the competition so it's well overdue.

I may live in Northern Ireland but my homeland is Scotland, if it's okay with everyone else I would love to try it.

Please let me know soon as I have an idea for a Scottish theme.

Lang may yer lum reek!

M.A.D.

Good idea

I will do North Dakota. (It will be a great big blank rectangle)

So I had better do Minnesota also.

I live in Grand Forks, North Dakota. East Grand Forks is just across the river in Minnesota. So we are really one big town. People that are trying to market our area refer to us as "The Grand Cities".

Sounds like fun!

I will do Wisconsin, since that is where I was born and grew up, and there is someone else in Illinois.

Where in Wisconsin ol'gramma? Before moving to Arizona, we were in Union Grove for a short time, and then Waterford for several years.

North of Madison near Baraboo/Wis Dells.

Well, not close to where we were - but WONDERFUL - the Wisconsin Dells - EVERYbody should visit there at least ONCE in their lifetime!!

Jersey · Post by **Jersey** » Tue Mar 23, 2004 12:16 am

Since I'm a Newbie here, can I make a suggestion?

There are several members from the USA, and I'll tip my hat to the Europeans as well - Spain, England, Ireland, Germany & Denmark...(Beautiful countires too, I might add [Haven't made it to Spain yet, but I'm working on it

]. What about the Canadians??? I can't be the only one...am I? That makes me feel so lonely

I haven't had any success with creating my own level, although I have burned the midnight oil trying, but I am persistant, and hopeful. How long before the deadline?

majic1 · Post by **majic1** » Tue Mar 23, 2004 12:25 am

No deadline! Just upload your level when you're satisfied with it. This isn't a contest - we just want to get as many from around the world as possible!

Scotland mate, you missed Scotland.

How can you miss Scotland? Canada is full of Scots!!

Anyway, welcome to the board Jersey.

I have some Canadian 'web friends myself. If you are anything like them, you're ok by me.

~Old Bear

btw. Did I mention you forgot Scotland???

janetgalle,
I have been to North Dakota just before the wheat was harvested and it was a glorious sight....miles and miles of gold, not a tree in sight, and the blue sky is so BIG. Guess that would be hard to portray.
Does N. Dakota have an animal called a Jackalope? I know S. Dakota does...

I am sooooooo sorry, Old Bear! I had Scotland in my original message, but I must have accidentally deleted it when I was correcting a spelling mistake in Ireland.

Thanks for welcoming me, but it seems I'm off to a bad start already - I started a minor debate over discounts in the Introductions Forum between Bigzips and Bill, and now I insult a Scotsman. What really, really makes it worse?!?...I'm 1/8 Scots myself!!!!!!!!!!!! And I live in a province that was originally known as New Scotland!

Maybe I'll just go throw myself in front of a Z-Bot...*sigh*

You can't do that, you might hurt it. That would be a bad, bad thing.

Welcome again, it's great to have you here.

Bina, how can you say that about Denmark?!?

I was most fortunate to visit Copenhagen years ago when we were waiting for the train that took us around Scandinavia, and I can honestly say that I was very impressed! Such a remarkable city, and even 17 years later, I still remember the incredible lights at night, and seeing the Little Mermaid (even if it was in the dark).

It's really too bad that we don't have the ability to build statues or design objects like LegoLand *Note to Midnight Synergy - Hint Hint*

Since I am trying to redesign Nova Scotia, I'm running out of ideas. The most dangerous animal we have is the gun-toting hunter in November, and the odd moose! Other than trees, water, & rocks, RTW really doesn't have much to work with. I think we could also make good use of mountains and valleys too. *Another Note to Midnight Synergy - Hint Hint*

Hi Jersey!!!

Thank you very much for you comment on my wonderfull city - it IS very beautyfull and has a lot of historical buildings, including a castle for our Queen and her family (By the way - we soon have an Australian Crown Princess in our city as well) - the Little Mermaid is a tribute to the great danish auther Hans Christian Andersen who i'm sure most of you know..!

I AM very happy to be living here - but can't figure out how I can make a level about it.... I guess my imagination is not all that good - and like you said, it would be a help to me, if we had the the abillity to build statues etc.

(Legoland would have been great huh?)
