Congrats to everyone. I have to say though, I'm a bit surprised the average scores were so low. Nothing averaged over an 8!
I was equally surprised. I think its been too long since folks have played the originals. I know everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but I'm shaking my head at some of them. Kind of like this guy... :tsktsk:

:laff: :laff: That's one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time. And now I've seen it, your entry definitely should count as a first mission. I don't think I've expressed that very well.

Well done & thank-you to all participants :thumb: - hopefully, there'll always be a place for 'classic' Thief FM's.

Maybe
every FM is being held up against the "big releases" now...

It might be partially due to this:

Don't give a mission a ten unless you would truly describe it as one of the best FM's you've ever played.

glad you liked it, I wanted the crouching walk for a mission I want to build where I have one AI creep up on another while Garret watches and I needed to know if it could be done before I spent ages learning dromed and building a mission only to find I couldn't do it.
And don't worry I know what you mean

I guess that's just it for me, two of the missions are in my top 10 all time missions (which includes original missions). of the 500 to 600+ missions abounding, being in the top 10 constitutes a score of 10 for me. Again, its opinionated, but I was still surprised that the average wasn't higher.

Well, I actually "overscored" all the entries. I guess I was like a kid in a candy store :D

By the way there were quite a few 9 and 10 scores, but a lot of people also voted truly hard core, some giving there highest score only a 5 or 6. I also mentioned not giving a mission a one unless you found it unplayable, yet there were many 1's ,2's and 3's. One voter gave a 3, two 4's, two 5's and one 6. If anyone is interested, I guess I could publish the marks, and maybe black out the voters' names.
