Rejected Violin - Hard

[WICKEDMagma]

Username: WICKEDMagma
Map name: Violin

The # of your Plot / or warp name to it: /plot visit WICKEDMagma 1
Difficulty: Hard (There are 95 jumps which would put this in the Expert difficulty, however, while the map is longer than what a hard map should be, there are very few jumps difficult enough to actually land this in Expert.)
Number of jumps: 95 jumps & 5 checkpoints (There is one TP block but if you can't add TP blocks at the moment then just make the TP block the end of the map.)

I built this map alone. I used my own violin as a reference. This is also my first map submission and first ever time building a musical instrument on a large scale in Minecraft. Hope you like it!

95 jumps is probably too long for a hard map, I would try to land this into the expert category.

Hello o/

The build looks very nice! You did a very good job getting the shape right so good job on that too. I also like the pentagram on the side, very nice touch. Sadly though, I believe there is a violin map so the theme is not original. As a musician myself, I hope the judges will turn a blind eye on that but it's not a high possibility :/

Good luck :)

That's wrong.

So far, this is the only map to focus solely on a violin.

Ok So I would love to give you a +1 but I will keep it a 0.

Parkour: Honestly The parkour needs to be shortened a lot to make it a hard, fits expert.

Build/Theme:Original but Unoriginal. The build is Original but the theme "Musical Instrument" is kind of IMO Unoriginal.

Good Luck though

the build is very very similar to my violin though, which is the majority of the Orchestra map.

Your Orchestra map is not solely focused on the violin. You have a trombone and piano which features 1/3 of the parkour. My violin is very very different from yours. I have a more accurate shape and structure, not to mention you don't even have the F-holes on either side of the bridge, which is abnormally curved. Don't get me wrong, your map looks nice, but I'm just comparing the two instruments.

Hello WICKEDMagma,

I regret to inform you that your map is being rejected.
The theme is a bit unoriginal because as mentioned above, Orchestra is largely based around a violin. Yes, that is not the sole focus of that map, but it is still very similar.
The build is accurate to what you were going for, and there are quite a bit of details to be seen throughout the build; from the actual violin itself to the decorations on top! I can tell that you put a lot of effort into this!
The parkour is the main concern. The length is a bit long (this you already addressed when submitting your map.) The difficulty of the jumps is also inconsistent; some jumps are harder and some are easier. Try to have a consistent difficulty throughout your entire map! (In this case, I'd recommend buffing it to the expert difficulty.) There is some variety to be seen within the parkour itself; however, there is quite an abundance of ladders, so try to use less of these!

Thank you for submitting your map, I would love to see more submissions from you!
Have a nice day,
Kristina
