Water crates add water to a cave, if there's a water tap present. A water tap crate being present means that if there's a water tap in the cave, it won't start running until the water tap crate is hit.
Water crates still add water, even if the water tap is not running(because of the water tap crate's presence)

Hey, I think I found why sending errors occur
At the top of the hatpc game window there is a code. When you open it from neopets, somewhere in that code it shows your highest score that has been accepted. It looks like this: highscore=(your high score) but if you open it from the link at the side of the interguild, it sais highscore=0
I think that the game follows that code at the top and if you get a really high score say, 450,000, then it will notice the large change and will not accept it. | | shos |

well try and open the game with highscore=550000. then try and send a high score, and tell us if you succeed.

There is actually no way to change the code at the top | | shos |

I was checking back at one of my most treasured levels. Did someone make a walkthrough of it? It seems to have been entered in a Video WT comp. But it doesn't show up on the comp.
@Kro: I can't even beat the first trap after like 8 tries

Oh there we go. That first bit is still pretty challenging though. Took me another few tries to finally master it >.<

The sending error also occurs if you open the game from Neopets.

@Kro: I can't even beat the first trap after like 8 tries fixed. apparently your cave had the same id as a video.
most treasured level? I should go try that cave.... | | jellsprout |

In my opinion, every rating should actually be helpfull. It should give advice to the creator of the level, to show which parts of the level were good and which were bad. So starting from today, I will karma rate ratings based on how helpfull they actually are. And I suggest everybody to do the same.
Examples:
Quote: 3/10
This level sucks!
-1 karma. You didn't give any criticism. You didn't explain why you think the level sucks, you didn't give any advice on how to improve the level and you didn't tell any of the good parts.
Quote: 9/10
Amazing level!
-1 karma. Again, you didn't do anything to help the level maker improve. A rating like this is nothing better than the 3/10 example I gave above.
Quote: 5.8/10
I didn't like this level. You overused secret areas which make the level very unfun. You used too many spikes and crawljumps and several parts of the cave are too difficult, such as the second dynamite trap. You have a very small chance of actually beating that part, which is very annoying that far into the cave.
I did like the arrow traps and the original use of the monsters.
Other than working on the difficulty of your traps and using less spikes and secret areas, I also suggest you make the level less linear. In this cave you go directly from start to finish. By adding backtracking or multiple paths, you add a whole new dimension to the level.
+1 karma. This rating has the general build of bad points, good points and advice. It explains why the player didn't like the level, without resorting to flaming. It also shows the level maker bad points in his style which he might not have noticed before and it helps him making better levels in the future.
So yah. I will start karma rating posts like this and I suggest everybody doing the same. The best way to become a better caver, is by getting useful advice. And I think this is the best way to get people to give such advice.

Same thing should also apply to videos.
Giving it 5 stars and then saying "very very nice =] epic ending.. " is not a very good review.
I'm not gonna point fingers or anything, though.

well, i don't know how can you give a more-worded comment for a video. i mean, you can comment about the music, credits, and...that's it. the rest depends on what's actually is in the video. the editing and stuff.. nothing much to say

I sort-of disagree with this. I mean, it's your prerogative, but I feel like it could discourage people from rating at all. | | Yaya |

I agree. Sometimes a cave can be good or bad without really having any extra details. I fear for my life to attempt to rate a level now, lol.

This is also to encourage people to give out more negative karma rates. At the moment nearly all the rates are positive rates, which isn't the purpose of the system. We need to show people a negative karma rating isn't such a big deal.
And is it really that difficult to say why you did or didn't like a level? Only if the rating doesn't help at all, I will give a negative rating.

Stop analyzing my posts. Your making me reconsider the basics of my way of logic and it's very intimidating. (Tempted to say the "l" word, but I didn't!)

You did.
And good. I made you question your own thoughts. Socrates would be so proud of me.
