Hi guys!

Let me start this post by explaining my recent inactivity:
A while ago, Internet Explore started fucking up. I really didn't like that (duh), and instantly switched to Firefox. The

problem here was whenever I tried to log on TWP, nothing happened.

Now, as promised, this map is released in 2009 (:lol:).

But really:
I started this map back in summer, and continued for a while. I was sure it would be great and done before 2010.

Now, here I was, 26th of december, realising, that 2010 is 5 days away, and I'd like to keep my promise. All I could do was play through the map and look how much I think I should add.

It may be a bit short, but hell, it's something. I hope you enjoy.

Also, I don't play much portal anymore, which is why I didn't continue the map. I expected it to be much longer.

Maybe I will get inspired when, if, Portal 2 comes out.

Thanks to Jrlaur (for the name) and Aldez (For his wonderful prefabs).


Pease tell me if there is any problems or bugs.

Enjoy!

Okay..

I downloaded this map in 23:42, Dec 28 and completed in 00:00 (started writing this in 00:01), Dec 29 (GMT+2). And I think that even wouldn't classify as completion, because I had to cheat (specifically host_timescale 0.3) to get through the last puzzle.

The map was great in overall looking, kinda fitted into the Portal style.

The puzzles I found fun, and kept with [spoiler]my own theory of that after Portal, the puzzles grew indefinitely hard, and one day became so hard so they were impossible within a single chamber (that's where my map pack goes)[/spoiler]. Also, timings were funny, and I recognized the trailer.

The length: I didn't find this map short. Maybe it was the level of puzzles? I don't know.

Anyway, finished writing this in 00:10, Dec 29 (GMT+2) and still first to comment! Hooray!

I just finished playing. It is a good map, most puzzles were not hard and easily performable. To me it didn't seem that short, it was a longer one, in fact. I couldn't find out how to get the cube out of the platform in the big big room, however. Plus couldn't perform the last fling.
I really missed the portal bumpers, but at least there were detachable cameras [spoiler]And I found the BTS area.[/spoiler]
Thank you for this map, at least something to play in Portal after a long time...

Abandoned Facility: Portal Challenge

For no reason, I did Abandoned Facility: Portal Challenge (which isn't really there, so I had to make my own) and my best result is 26 portals.

If you want to beat me, the top view is in attachment and here are my results:

1: 0 Portals (a dumb wall deflection)
2: 2 Portals
3: 6 Portals (3 to retrieve the first cube and 3 to retrieve second)
4: 4 Portals
5: 4 Portals
6: 2 Portals (to do an infinite fall)
7: 4 Portals
8: 4 Portals[/i]

Haha, i beat you

1: 0 Portals
2: 2 Portals
3: 4 Portals (Putting a portal under the exit door)
4: 2 Portals
5: 5 Portals
6: 2 Portals
7: 4 Portals
8: 5 Portals

24 portals

(MyRes - My Result, YourRes - Your Result, MinRes - Minimum Result between us)

Haha, I found two advantages of this system:

1. It lets us both (and everyone else) know the REAL minimum amount of portals required to complete the map (if I was given only the facts that I did it in 26 portals and you did it in 24 portals, I wouldn't even guess the minimum is 22 portals).
2. When I (you) know which parts you (I) did better it's very easy for me (you) to find where I (you) went wrong and fix myself (yourself).

Now off to the step and time challenges!

P.S. By the way, I've set the medals on the portal challenge like this:
Bronze - 45 portals (your screenie)
Silver - 31 portal (interpolation between Bronze and Gold)
Gold - 22 portals (the REAL minimum)

You could not have made this any harder to read.

Unless it was written in jibberish, upside down or backwards.

Nah, these ones are still easy to read.

I meant his sentance AS WELL AS upside down

Oh common. I'd start figuring out the time challenge if not Remmiz.

This sentance is also hard to read

If I wrote "Hello there" you'd say the same.
