You must be DEEP because of all the people I know (and avoid) this would literally have never come up, haha... That actually sounds like a really wacky level name, to be honest `~`

This makes me think I need to make a SMBX level where I implement a proper Magikoopa enemy, except dressed as a businessman.

I'm still scared that somehow my level will end up being rated terribly. Which is very unlikely, considering the lowest-ranked levels in MaGLX were all...not too good, and my level is at the very least not broken and isn't just gimmicky switches and layers. I think my favorite part of my level is my lack of knowledge on how to make certain things work the way I wanted and I had to build the level around it. It made a section in the second half way more interesting than I had originally planned.
Also no projectile/rinka spamming, which is always a plus.
Is this the spot where I place my order for a large pizza?

I'm hoping my level doesn't upset people (in terms of difficulty). Also, if a troll level isn't in the bottom tier, I'd be surprised.

Oh dear.

I just woke up from a dream where talkhaus was like, a physical social meeting place and not a forum, and in all the MaGL X2 hype the forum had actually divided into several large factions working on separate, high-quality/budget post-MaGL projects, and The Lost Levels was still one of them (I was a part of it) and there was another one where instead of taking rejected names, this one group was making their own wacky names, and the main characters had been replaced by a Samus-like boy and a young Solid Snake, and they asked me if I wanted to join their group to make a level for the project, and I said I was too busy and apologized :( And then another group decided they wanted to include me in their post-MaGL project and made graphics of me really quickly and showed off a demonstration level where I was involved in a joke plot involving a joke love triangle with Demo and Horikawa, and a lot of hidden block switches. Everyone was working non-stop to push their post-MaGL project to be the greatest, grandest thing thing ever.

"Still"? That would imply we have a budget at all. That's silly. You're silly. MaGL X: The Lost Levels does not have a budget.
Shhhh, if they find out about the 'budget' they'll shut it down and then how will we get people to make levels?

Well Holy's "joke" level last year did get 2nd place somehow.
Oh yeah, is anyone hoping to have their level be one of the judge's favorites this year or if they think it has a chance to be one of them?

Actually that is the exact right amount of hype for MaGL X2.

Good lord I said some stupid stuff here when I was younger
Image Ver.2.1 now with a balanced fighting system, that lost of fun to play to be honest. You'll notice when playing that Demo has more HP and Strange, as where Iris has more PP and defense, she also grows just a bit faster, but her states grow slower. Also, furba sprites has been finished!

Oh man can't wait to find out that raocow's parents made a level! Or that someone from Zanyhost really did feel bad and not only made a level, but also managed to bring back all the lost posts from the Talkhaustrophe.
