Hopefully one day I'll be good enough to be a worthy challenger. For now I'm sticking with the N and A leagues.

And it was for this very reason that the N league was stopped. The A League was meant to be an easy to solve league with plenty of tweaking to seperate the contestants. Also of course, it is why A league gives medals to both Vets and New Players. B League was meant to be for the types of competitions that I'm seeing in the A league at the moment.

There are not enough players to have 3 leagues running. A and N league should stay condensed into the A league with simple small levels. B league should be for more of a challenge.

Things are going back to how they were when everyone stopped playing. I am not entering competitions at the moment because I download the A league to see a level that will take hours to tweak. I don't have that type of time anymore. Keep it sweet and simple and the entries will come flooding back in. If you want to post a challenging level, win the B league and fire away.

Take a look back at any of Cresta's recent A league competitions for a perfect example of how to create a simple yet challenging level and get 20+ entries.

I'm not playing AR anymore exactly for that reason!
I have a look at every level, but then I always decide not to play...
I understand B league should be at least not easy to solve, but making a WORKING solution for an A level should take no more than 2 minutes for an average player!!
After that, skilled players can tweak the solution in hours, to get a nearly-perfect solution, and that's AR.

Looking at the last A contests, I don't see this.
And lack of solutions is the consequence...

OK i must to admit the last few A leaugue contest really wasn't in the easiest top10, and yes,i know my level wasn't either :oops:
And maybe you have right: we should set back the difficulty level to easy.
I'm standing for!
