Very good map, except for the solid block with creepers underneath it, i really hate those

[Grauniad]

I don't believe there is any entombed creeper on this map.

[shoeface]

There is underneath the solid block in the middle of the creeper mass  :-\

[Grauniad]

Indeed, I missed that. But pray tell, since that creeper is not germane to winning or losing, why would you object to its presence?

There are other levels that mention Mario by name, but if you want to claim that Bullet Bill and Projectile William are completely different, I guess that's fine....

Oops.  Didn't mean for it to be there.  That solid block was a last-minute addition and I forgot to clear the creeper from under it.

That's just my sense of humor at work  :D.  The play on the name is part of my homage.  I wasn't actually worried about any kind of copyright violations.

Yikes!  I couldn't finish the map because of the creeper under the block.  :(  I don't feel like playing it again and having my launchers take it out by hitting creeper beside it and damaging the creeper under the block.  :(

So how *did* you take out all the other creeper?

Using blasters and launchers, of course.  :P

I used launchers and blasters from the top to get to the emitters, then I drove my blasters down to finish it off.  The launchers must not have been launching close enough to the block (or long enough) to get all the creeper under it.  :(

Hmmm. A bit of a failure on the part of mapmods... (including me :)). I'll add this to my checklist...
*Look for creeper under solid blocks... ;)

No need to. We (Virgil and I at least) have discussed it previously and thought we'd leave it as-is.  Another trick in the "annoying to heck" category mapmakers can deploy.  :)
