I strongly believe their is wisdom to this of making 200 levels for a few reasons.
1. Cuts down on the Players submitting 50 level PWs done in 2 weeks and calling it the "Best thing that has hit Graal"
2. Makes the Players plan better for their PW because they have alot of levels to make and not just a few Awesome ones.
3. 200 levels has a better chance to hold interest to players when there is more to do and spread out more. Trying to cram too much in a few levels only creates a cluttered disorganized look to the PW. Not very attractive to the player.
These are just a few off the top of my head. I have not or will not say smaller than 200 levels could have the same effect if planned right BUT as a general rule no. This will make the players take their time to do it right and not rush it, plan it, work on it till it is right. I did not say or assume in any way less than 200 levels could not be a good PW, this is where you assumed I thought this. Sure awesome levels can be made under 200 and be quite playable BUT there has to be a standard and this has been set as you know to 200 levels, so making a mute point over some virtual one level PW that may or may not keep players attention and its existence will never be is still in my book a waste of time to post on.
