Welcome to the Chocolate Castle forum!
Feel free to talk about anything CC related in this forum. You can also post rooms that you have made and play other people's rooms.
How to Play a Room
1. Select the text from the room file. Click and drag from 'Title:' down to the end of the Groups text.
2. Choose Edit->Copy to copy the room to the clipboard.
3. Switch back to Chocolate Castle (or open it if you don't have it running yet).
4. In the room editor, click 'Open' and then 'Open From Clipboard'.
The room should now be visible. Note that this doesn't automatically save the room to disk, so you may want to also save it at this point if you like the look of it.
You can try it out now with this room:

How to Post a Room
1. Register on this BBS if you have not already.
2. In the room editor, click 'Save' and then 'Save to Clipboard' to copy the room to the clipboard.
3. Start a new thread for your room ('New Post' in the menu at the top of the page), or reply to another thread if appropriate.
4. In your message, choose Edit->Paste to insert the room into your message.
Don't forget to choose a title, author, and difficulty level for your room before posting. It is also useful to validate the room before posting so that others know that the puzzle is solvable. To do this, just solve the puzzle yourself before saving to disk or to the clipboard.
If you have any problems, please post them here or contact me (hey [at] lexaloffle [dot] com). Have fun!
