Beautiful missions, thank you very much for these!

I'm about half way through all the contest missions. I've so far awarded three missions with 9 silver hammers. This was one of them. Bloody well done!
Question [spoiler]what was the trick to the tower of doors? I couldn't figure it out so I just kept reloading until I got the correct sequence.[/spoiler]

It took 3hrs 23 min with 4156 loot on expert without a hint at all. This was absolutely fantastic. One of my favorite missions period.

The correct doors
all have a certain sound emanating from them - a different sound than from all the other doors.

Both parts are amazing! But the part 2 - the catacombs - are just extremely impressive!!
Thank you for these missions!

Just wanted to say, this mission was terrific! I had a blast playing through it-- ESPECIALLY part 2. It ended up being way more vast than what I had imagined. A few things:
- The frozen-in-time mage battle was amazing (a-MAGE-ing, UH HAH! *knee slap* *I hate myself*). I wish there was more about their expedition! Mages are one of my favorite Thief factions, I love reading about those weirdos!
- The new enemies were equal parts creepy and...kind of hilarious. Those skeleton spiders made me go from WHA-THE-F***-IS-THAT to all out laughter so fast.
- I appreciate that, despite the heavy Bonehoard influence, the mission really went in its own direction design-wise. There was that big area that was a straight up tribute, but it didn't overstay its welcome (and the payoff with the goofy golden skeleton man opening the gate for you was 1000% worth it).
- I'm too dumb for the Mathematician puzzle.
- Everyone is going to be talking about Mission 2, but Mission 1 had some terrific moments also. I loved the bag on the desk across from the sleeping thug that's just ominously dripping blood.
Really well done, thanks for releasing it!

The Easter Egg (The Unbearable Lightness of Being) was awesome! I laughed so hard :D Great job!

Wow. I'd like to congratulate whomever made this mission. What a clever way of using game physics, too, or at least that's what I thought when I tried what I thought was the only way out of the Musician's tower -- climbing on the roof and getting thrown on by back on the sloping roof opposite and gliding down without taking any damage. In fact, as I found out an hour later, all I needed to do was look at the window… :joke: Really cool use of the vertical dimension in game play.
I just finished this mission on expert. It took me about 5 hrs altogether, and I would have been faster if I had just looked out of all the windows a bit more carefully. 1000 gold short of total, though! And I didn't have to take a peek at this thread either :cool: The only thing I didn't get was the Mathematician's puzzle. I found the rooms alright but I thought the code was a 5 number pin code. Then I read here that you're supposed to just add the numbers up. I don't get it. The first room had 3, 6, 5 and 8. I know that 5 was correct (as I said I thought it was a pin code) because of the blue glimmer effect. But if I add the numbers up, it's 22!.

Ok, stuck at the start of mission two, can not open the door that is locked near the start, NM found the key, was not easy to spot.

Brilliant mission!! I absolutely loved the gameplay and puzzles. May your future FM submissions be plentiful :D
