If I understand you correctly, you have a problem with people that give criticism you think is overblown. As arrogant as this may sound, please understand that the more experience someone has with custom SRB2 stages, the more aware do they become of potential issues. Nobody is trying to put anyone's effort down. Most critics here are honest and are trying to be helpful.Plus its kind of not the place to give good examples of stages- a place to mention those would be in the thread you criticized why/how bad it is, which people usually don't do.
So you are saying that XSRB2 is complete? (I think not!) Even great, famous, unfinished wads deserve in the hall of fame.If it would, we might as well add Tortured Planet along with it, and we all know (including Fawfulfan) that it still needs more work.
No. I'm also not saying Tortured Planet is incomplete. It's just that Tortured Planet needs more work to reach the level of quality XSRB2 has. This has to do with the development strategy Fawfulfan chose, because he decided to make filler that he can flesh out later in the places where couldn't think of anything else.So you are saying that XSRB2 is complete?

(I have nothing against XSRB2 just so nobody gets mad.)
Ok, you're all going to hate me for this:I'm just saying that I think that there are projects out there other than XSRB2 which deserve a place in the Hall of Fame. Mystic Realm is an example which leaps to mind instantly. It's possibly the greatest level pack in the history of SRB2, and yet it is somehow unfit to be promoted to Hall of Fame status? And XSRB2 isn't? (Don't get me wrong, XSRB2 is fantastic, and well-deserving of the honor; It's just that I rather contest the implication that it is better than Mystic Realm, or as popular.)
Is there a rigidly determined set of qualities that determine whether something is eligible for the Hall of Fame? If there isn't, shouldn't there be? If there already is, shouldn't it be available for everyone on the message board to read? It seems to me that the Hall of Fame is very ill-defined right now, and the fact that only one thing is in there seems to reflect excessive exclusivity.
I hope Fawfulfan doesn't lose his level making genius then.Incomplete mods and packs are okay, but their content has to be consistently good.
And there's the first response...hahaha oh lord...

Ok, you're all going to hate me for this:
I dislike Mystic Realm. A lot. I, personally, think there are too many hazards and enemies. A lot of the levels are maze like, for another thing.

A few things I need to comment about:
- I agree the name "Hall of Fame" is misleading and should probably be changed to something more appropriate. Either that or we actually make it based on fame to some degree.
I strongly disagree. But whatever, we all think differently.Chaotic Chao, we've been over this already. Tortured Planet should not be in the Hall of Fame. It is not consistently good enough.

No, this also implies that Tortured Planet is the "best" because there's literally nothing else (aside from 1.09 ports).
