The topics should be fairly self-explanatory, but if you have any questions, feel free to ask. Discussion about another contest was brought up on IRC today, and since I can't decide which one would be the best choice to run next, you guys can pick.

Even though I haven't ever participated in a contest, I still enjoy watching what comes from them. I decided to be different and voted "Chocolate Level". Either way, I am looking forward to what can come out of this.
Besides, maybe something will hit me and give me some motivation to finally do some hacking of my own.

I think another 24 hour contest would be fun, personally, and I imagine people might want to prove themselves now that they're more comfortable with the concept.

I'd like another 24 hour contest. And yes, pretty much like Axem said, I'd like another shot since I wasn't completely sure of how to approach it the first time.

Bah, now I want to change my vote. Oh well, I should have waited for more ideas.

There's been WAY too many level-related contests.
Overworld contest!

I'm all for another 24 hour level contest myself, probably because levels are much easier to make than overworlds... to me, at the very least.
Anyway, the result is what matters and I don't really care which one it'll be as long as I get something fun to look at.

Vored Chocolate Level contest, but anything besides another 24hrsmw contest I would enter, I didn't really see a point for the 24hr contest.
EDIT - I don't see the point in having another 24hr Contest, we've just had one recently, and haven't had a Choco/Overworld contest in ages, please, no more 24hrsmw. I don't see why you guys want another one literally a few months after the last, it's pointless and will get boring.

The last 24 hour contest was incredibly fun. Although my level ended up short, the time restriction made planning and building the level a blast.
Although I think a chocolate contest would result in the most creative entries, I have to cast my vote for a 24 hour contest.

The 24 Hour contest last fall was very fun. As you only have 24 hours to make something, you really have to think of what could work best that won't require a lot of time.
I find it's also a good test for people who want to get good at building levels quicker.
@TRS: The level was supposed to be short. Mine was 06 screens long, and according to the judging, could've been improved with a little trimming (and it ranked 14th place)

I voted for an OW contest. I've always wanted to participate in one for a long time and the last one was what 2008? And it's also something different than level designing.

I meant short as in it didn't place too well. It came up short.

I voted for the Chocolate Level Contest, because I find it easier creating interesting levels using custom stuff (and also more fun, most of the time).
Another 24 hours contest sounds interesting as well, but I'm not sure if I'd be able to come up with anything decent in such a short time.

User input for the win! I actually had a gimmick planned for the next chocolate contest so I hope to be able to use it.

Chocolate contest. We haven't had one in forever, although I guess the Secret Santa thing sort of counts, even if it wasn't a contest. I'm not horrible at designing overworlds, but they take me forever to make, and anything that takes that long to make, I usually don't want to do if I can't use it in a hack. (I guess if I made one and then built another side hacking project around it...) And as far as the 24-hour contest goes...well, that would probably involve vanilla design, which, to be frank, I'm getting a little sick of. We could try combining them, though...24-hour level design contest? Chocolate level design contest? How about a 24-hour chocolate level design contest! It would actually probably be harder than a vanilla one, because it takes time to prepare the extra resources. As far as "other" goes...well, I can't really think of any other ideas that wouldn't be too broad, too niche, or too easily abusable.

I voted for the 24-hour level contest, just because I thought it was a fun idea. Though I would also be interested in being a part of the next chocolate level contest as well.
