My own Midnight Mansion...

There should be some sort of official Contest thread

Now THAT is a good idea!

The expansion will let you play as Sonic the Hedgehog! Every mansion builder gets a pony!

So... if my Castle Basano isn't that good

quality

it won't go in, but there's still a chance of it winning a runner-up prize of just the expansion but no cash prize? :-?

[Psychotronic]

I'm pretty sure any mansion that gets included in the expansion will get a cash prize. But once again, I'm not running the contest, and it hasn't been officially announced. This is just what I've pieced together from conversations on the forums.

Now here's a question... When is the expansion set coming out? (and I'm not really catching up on time) When is MM 1.8 coming out?

[Psychotronic]

Don't know on either count. I do know that Vern is working hard on both.

[Toybox]

Getting included or not wouldn't be only a matter of quality, but also of fitting some

editorial guidelines

if I may say so. For instance, I find that MMaM is a high-quality mansion but I'm not sure I would favour its inclusion in the expansion pack.

So we get a pony if we participate, eh? [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]

[Wingy]

So basicly you're saying... MMaM isn't really

mansiony

enough? Or is it too big? :-?

[Toybox]

It was a reference to its size

[Wingy]

Whatever. But some mansions... aren't really a

midnight mansion,

you know what I'm saying? (I'm not talking about

changed

mansions) I'm talking about mansions like... for example... (Not that I'm saying its bad or anything,) Carn'O'Mysery's Carnival of a mystery. It's got a casino background, not a mansion. It is a good mansion, for a incomplete one.
