And exactly those kind of tricks, only MUCH harder, are being pulled in ARFRG !! And somehow I have the feeling brell feels personally attacked by my comments.....but it has NOTHING TO DO with that at all. Quite the contrary.... I said it several times before, I really love this and his other mansions (including the hard parts).
I just wanted to point out that apparently here some of the same things that caused heated discussions in DoD and PoG and God knows where else are okay and nobody dares to question them !!!
aquaMat, I am pleased that you love my mansion and believe me, I am not taking your comments personally. We are disagreeing on a few things and we have both the right to disagree.
My point is that Arfrg is advertised as much harder than both PoG and DoD, for example. You seem not to share that opinion and although we disagree on that I will fight for your right to have other views than I do on this (as they said in France on the debate of free speech/mind etc.
).I also hope that you never ment to give the impression that I am getting away with something other builders don't just because of my position as admin.

I am truly sorry if I offended you, that was not my meaning. And again, Arfrg is meant to be a much harder mansion than DoD and PoG

When I used a gap in the floor in the above picturedgrey roomsin SPoG / PoG I was told it was a bit unfair. (By brell among other people, BTW, if I remember correctly......) I pointed out that the gap ONLY occurs when Jack goes back into a room he has been in before, meaning he has already seen the gap !!
In ARFRG such sudden gaps occur in rooms Jack has NOT seen before, immediately after he enters those rooms (rooms 13300 and 13502) !! Isn't it understandable that I feel I should at least be allowed to point out that this is exactly the same situation I've once been blamed for....only more so... ??!!
I just looked at the posts on PoG and SPoG and I couldn't find any by me telling you that the jump across rooms was unfair. And as I said in an earlier post I have added maps to warn the player about those rooms in question, which will be included in the first update of Arfrg.

Unfortunately my English doesn't allow me to reply as fluently as I would in German.... so I probably be misunderstood again.
If so, I apologize already.
I am sorry if you have taken my answers as I have been offended in any way. That is not the case.
In the end a person's opinion on any given mansion is a matter of taste. That is completely all right.
And, unfortunately my German doesn't allow me to read as fluently as I do in English so thank you for writing in English ;D But Icelandic would of course have been better. 8-)
