I know everyone doesn't like it when we make big sweeping changes to the events calendar, so good news: we won't be doing any of that in 2023! Instead, we'll be getting it out of our system early before the new year rolls in!!
Due to a combination of staff availability, convenience, and Eastern European Religious Events, we will be moving Winter C3 to February 10th-14th. And while Summer C3 will remain in July this year, starting in 2024, all future C3 events will be hosted in February/August. We feel that moving both events forward a month will make it more convenient for us to prepare for these events, and offer better timing for everyone to participate!
So what does that mean for other events? Well, you now get a contest early! QLDC 2023 now starts next week Friday, January 6th! We will also be moving CLDC 2023 forward to March 20th to make room for...something else.
And one last note: you can now check the front page of the site's calendar for all of the listed events! Make sure to check regularly for new events (and possibly other things?) we decide to add to the calendar. Thanks for kindly accepting all of these new changes to the calendar, and have a Happy Two Days Before New Years!
KLDC 2022 Results!
You've waited all year, and now it's time for presents - Merry KLDC Results, everybody!
The SMW Central staff team are super organised, and as such we have synchronised the turning on off Christmas holiday names and Christmas username colours. Time to dust off that Halloween name and change it again!
Bye!!
wait what the hell why does smw central look so different
You may well be aware that our website recode and redesign has been in development for a while now. If you weren't aware of this, where the hell have you been!!!1
While you're waiting for the turkeys to thaw out (or whatever meal prep you're doing tomorrow I won't judge), why not check out our SMWC Event Calendar for 2023! We're putting this out now so everyone has a chance to put out their feedback early! You can view the thread here.
BaseROM Level Design Contest 2022!
Back by popular demand, the second BaseROM Level Design Contest is now live!
Co-hosted by AmperSam and myself, we've spent a lot of time, energy and effort making the most feature-packed contest BaseROM we can muster. Now it's your turn to show us what you can make with it.
As we are getting ready to launch SMWC2, and in response to (somewhat) Current Events, we are preparing to move our server from CloudFlare to Sucuri. To complete this process, the server will have to have some downtime.
On Friday, November 11th, SMWCentral will be down for at least a few hours. It is possible that this downtime lasts for longer than expected. We will keep everyone informed of the process and when the site will go back up via Discord and Twitter.
Thank you for your patience as we move the server. And stay tuned for the SMWC2 launch very soon!
Edit: This downtime will start at 10:00 AM GMT (roughly 11 hours from now)!
VLDC12 and OLDC2 Community Compilations Are Finished!
