5.00/5.00
10 points for Gryffindor etc.
Amazing work! Great puzzles, great visuals, great test elements.

Simply amazing.

HMW, absolutely brilliant - another outstanding map that only requires thought. Nice to see the use of the sendificator in another map, so many times new effects/tools are created and then never used again. [spoiler]Clever twist with the glass...![/spoiler]
Enjoyed hunting through the decayed environment to find the power switch, and then getting back to use it...very logical... thanks for another excellent creation. The waterfall - pure joy to see...
5/5

This was one of the few puzzles in awhile that I had to stop and think. Nice work with the aesthetics and puzzle.
My favourite part, was [spoiler]finding the switch and powering the chamber, as well as the waterfall.[/spoiler]
Good job! Definitely a 5/5 from me.

When I entered the waterfall area my jaw dropped.

Words cannot describe how amazing this map was. I loved it all and will probably never see a map as good as this as long as I live. Thank you so much for making this map.

Could I get a hint? [spoiler]I managed to get one cube into the "cage" thing by portalling a lightbridge out of the point where the laser hits the wall, then putting a cube on it and sending the other. But then I got stuck. Am I doing it horribly wrong? I thought I had it, until I found that the glass stops lightbridges, so I couldn't raise up the cube on the inside to block the beam. Or is the glass on the bottom the important part?[/spoiler]

EDIT: Wow I'm stupid. Never mind. I was making it harder than it had to be.

Pray tell, i'm still stuck there D: I thought the same thing about making the light bridge hold up the cube on the inside of the glass

Although the first and third rooms used the same trick - the map itself was a lot of fun.
I particularly like the interlude with the waterfalls and those damn Offices from HELL.
I got stuck there for a long time - never realizing that [spoiler]the power, when shut off, would leave the doors OPEN[/spoiler]. Makes perfect sense now - but not then.

I must say - your reputation precedes you.
As wonderful as this map was . . . you received a ton of praise as you should have.

However, the lesser known, Sleter and his new map, "Variable Reflection" is a triumph rarely seen.
Yet for some reason he has only received several responses.
Oh well - they both rocked - and since they are so different you cannot compare.

P.S. I still remember that "Rube Goldberg" map you did a long time ago for Portal I with the spheres and chutes and the control and timer buttons. That is my fav of yours.

breakingspell: Here's a small hint. [spoiler]How could you get the beam to a lower level? If only there were some way to redirect it...[/spoiler]

But I need one in [spoiler]the offices with the circuit breaker[/spoiler]. :S

And the waterfall is, as others have said, breathtaking! I should copy that room to be my menu background!

Exactly

PCdoc's post above gives a small hint, as well as the note besides the switch.
If that doesn't make the coin drop: [spoiler]place portals in the office with the door button and near the switch. Press the door button and then quickly turn the power off.[/spoiler]

I'm so happy to hear that people like that. It was probably the most labour-intensive thing to make in the whole map!

@PCdoc: I actually have a P2 Rube Goldberg style map in the works, that is a lot like Manic Mechanic. I was planning to release that as my first P2 map, but then that Sendificator idea happened so it's been moved down the priority list somewhat. It's almost done too. It only needs a model for a huge stirling engine (Old-Aperture style!) that I haven't finished yet.

BTW I'm going to check out Sleter's map right now, 'cause I'm so intrigued by those complex looking screenshots!
