Voting has now begun! See the original post for details!
Things to remember when writing figures of speech and sound:
The power of poetry comes from the ability to defy logic. Defy logic often.

Use a metaphor and tell us that your lover is the sky. Tell us that your lover is the sky. When you do that, we won't believe you. We won't believe you because saying so makes no sense, but we'll see a meaning. We'll see a meaning.

The other thing is the ability to be remembered. Love anything.

I didn't realise until replaying these for voting but holy damn all these levels are so good! It was really difficult to rank them.

I love the way this competition brought out some of the best levels KS has seen. Serious congrats to the winners; all of them were very fun to play.

@Fubaka Any chance we could see the scoring breakdown?

I'll let the contest entrants decide if they want to make their score breakdowns public or not. When it came to the voting multiplier, I basically calculated which level was the highest ranked overall, and then added the multipliers once I had the levels listed in order of popularity. There was a separate scoring mechanism for that, where each first place vote was worth one point, each second vote worth 1/2 a point, third place 1/3, and so on.

You can make Saving Thalanill's score public, I don't mind. Although, it's fairly easy to determine each level's score if you read the scoring rules carefully...

Ahem.

You're all rubbish. I should have won. This whole thing is rigged! Rigged I say!

(PS. That was a joke. Well done Ix! Thalanill was a fantastic level!)

Congrats to everyone, especially ixMarcel! Great job!

I'm curious to know how many people voted.

And here's Advena's score breakdown since people were wondering...
