The funny thing is that you don't realise you're proving his point for him. You refuse to consider your own fallibility.

Indeed, and that's the problem that faces most playerworlds at the moment. It's possible to mock up a fake server thing to trigger etc, but it's a lot of unnecessary work. That's why I say private servers are the only reasonable solution.

As for the one level thing...it may be possible, but with how efficient the graal engine is, it would require a super computer to run.
Not at all. The graphical demands could be scaled quite easily.

Now on the other hand, using a gmap could possibly be considered one level
Indeed it could, but I wasn't talking about that.

Once again, using script, I don't care who you are...I doubt it will be very fast.
It could. Believe me, I know what I'm talking about here.

Few more things..Kaimetsu, that requirement should stay. Assuming you made the most amazing PW in one level, don't you think the PWA is able to see how great you one level PW is?
Well, yes. And then they'd throw it out because it doesn't fit the requirements. I'm saying that, if the requirement stays, it shouldn't be rigidly enforced. It should be more of a guideline than a hard law.
