Gbpackers31 Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 You could *ahem* acquire it through shady means. If you already own the game and are not lending it to someone right now, I don't see that as a moral issue anymore. :shades: Haha. Although you do have a point, I'd rather not considering I am going home and will be able to get it this weekend (but won't have the time to build a suer coaster). If this week isn't quite so hectic as last, I could totally enter the next competition.... That is, if anyone even participates! Where is everyone's entries? :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sees_all1 Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 I've got it done... just waiting until closer to the deadline to let you know how I did :wink: Don't want anyone to know my strategy. 99 dungeoneering achieved, thanks to everyone that celebrated with me! ♪♪ Don't interrupt me as I struggle to complete this thoughtHave some respect for someone more forgetful than yourself ♪♪♪♪ And I'm not doneAnd I won't be till my head falls off ♪♪ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sees_all1 Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 So, I've found a loophole in my rules as I've crafted them. Rather than ban it this late it the game, I'm going to let everyone know about it so that everyone is on an equal footing (can choose to use it or not).If you raise the ground above the tracks the rollercoaster, it is more or less the same as putting trees there. Technically, I'd say the track is above ground, as it doesn't tunnel and there is no ground directly above it. So, doing this is against the spirit of the rules but its not against the letter of the rules. And now that I've made sure everyone knows about it, I expect everyone to use it. :mrgreen: My submission is coming soon, just as soon as I raise all that land around the tracks. 99 dungeoneering achieved, thanks to everyone that celebrated with me! ♪♪ Don't interrupt me as I struggle to complete this thoughtHave some respect for someone more forgetful than yourself ♪♪♪♪ And I'm not doneAnd I won't be till my head falls off ♪♪ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sees_all1 Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 Can we do it in RCT2 sandbox next week?I don't think it matters?If I upload my track, can you build it in sandbox and let me know the ride ratings? I'm hoping RCT2 doesn't give an unfair advantage in the way it calculates those.

doomy Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 I ended up failing hard, I built 2 coasters and both were about 7.5 exitement so I'm a bit of a failure. Doomy edit: I like sheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sees_all1 Posted March 6, 2011 Author Share Posted March 6, 2011 Now that the deadline has passed, I declare myself the winner of this week's competition, so I'm better than all y'all. :P Alright, too many rules, weird scoring, all that jazz. So, to generate more interest, I'm modifying the rules for next week's competition. The rules will now have two parts, competition rules and ride rules. Without further ado, the new rules. Competition Rules:1. Rollercoaster may be from ANY game in the RCT series. This includes expansion packs and new releases. The rollercoaster may be in sandbox mode or as part of a scenario, unless otherwise stated in the ride rules.2. Rollercoaster must be submitted before the week ends - by 11:59::59 GMT on Saturday. No exceptions.3. The submission for the rollercoaster must be in the form of screenshots of the park. The entire rollercoaster must be included in the screenshot, or multiple screenshots. The ride's ratings and the name of ride on the entrance to the station platform must match, and be in at least one of the screenshots. This is to verify the ride in the screenshot is legitimate.4. The winner of the competition from the prior week is allowed to remove one ride rule, add one ride rule, and change the scoring of next week's coasters. Ride Rules:Baleeting this one: 1. The rollercoaster must be entirely above ground.2. There must be no footpaths above the rollercoaster, or within 2 squares on the same level of the rollercoaster.3. There must be no other rides or rollercoasters within 4 squares of the rollercoaster.New rule:The rollercoaster may not be more than 6,000 feet in length. Scoring:The rollercoaster's score is its fastest speed in MPH, divided by its maximum lateral G force.Where the minimum lateral G force is 1.

It in fact does work. There is a minor issue where the first coaster must make a loop to get onto the second track, but after that, they duel each other.

Danqazmlp Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Unfortunately I'm much too busy this week to get involved. And the next two weeks are no go's for me too. Unfortunately, I have two weeks off Uni and work after that, but by then this may have died. Want to be my friend?

I don't want to use up all scoring ideas if no one is going to submit :thumbup: Well, I did actually have a coaster ready, but if we're pushing this deadline back, I'll be glad to wait. I don't think my coaster was very good anyway, and I haven't had the time at all to play RCT much this week (I don't have a coaster unlocked on Arid Heights with boosters yet, and I wanted to experiment with them to see if I can make my coaster faster, so waiting is good for me).
