CCLP1 Speculation

[random 8]

Before i respond to anything in particular, i want to bring this back to what it was really about:

why can't it happen and what does the ice block patch have to do with it?
I don't care if it's "not suitable for scoring" or whatever, I'd use it and throw away the old tileworld forever.
The majority of levels I voted down during voting were those that could've been tons of fun but I simply got tired of repeating the same process over and over again.

Then CC isn't the game for you. Try Chuck's Challenge instead.

I took this to mean that "repeating the same process over and over again" is not a good reason to vote down a level because it shouldn't be an issue if you enjoy CC; otherwise it "isn't the game for you." However, I think that (and i imagine J.B. does too) it's the level designer who is at fault for not taking into account the restrictions and limitations of CC, rather than the player for disliking the fact (s)he has to restart the whole level after every attempt. This was the point i was trying to make.

This philosophical debate on whether adding checkpoints changes the game is not one i meant to argue. I say it all depends where you draw the line, and my line happens to not match J.B.'s.

That being said:

Then it's not Chip's Challenge anymore. It's an entirely different game.

Tetris is an entirely different game. I do not agree with your use of the word "entirely".
