You're still an incredible builder.
Besides, it's about the fun of competition, not necessarily placement.

maskedbandit101 · 07-16-2009, 04:20 PM

it's all about placement...if you're not first, you're last...winning is for winners, losing is for losers.

Boston is just feeling sorry for himself for being dominated in previous competitions...and he knows he'd get whipped again.

Just kidding, Boston....sort of.

RCT3Callum · 07-16-2009, 04:24 PM

Wow you're evil..

LostThought15 · 07-16-2009, 04:26 PM

wow Masked, someone is cocky.
Just cause you and Sim won the Winter Showdown...

.... nvm, that says a lot.

Come off it Boston. We both know that was only because you was with me.

LoneWolf7 · 07-17-2009, 02:02 PM

So we can suspect that The Dave's team will come in last? ^

Boston · 07-17-2009, 03:58 PM

masked hit the nail on the head.

Actually we both know it was because Maylene's a SLACKER!

:P (just kidding Maylene)

liamrocks · 07-17-2009, 04:21 PM

Can he even hear you

I think it was because of Dave's sexy skillz, but thats just me

03gibbss · 07-18-2009, 11:56 AM

Just to check, does at least one drop have to equal 180ft? (e.g. from 180 to 0 ft in one drop, or 210 to 30 ft in one drop?) Or can it be spread out over a number of drops? As long as the heighest section of track is 180 ft heigher than the lowest?

LostThought15 · 07-18-2009, 11:58 AM

I believe MB said it was based off the biggest drop.

maskedbandit101 · 07-18-2009, 12:47 PM

The biggest drop has to be at least 180 ft.

03gibbss · 07-18-2009, 12:52 PM

Ok, thanks for clarifying.

Jerr_Oen · 07-21-2009, 06:24 PM

Maskedbandit, when is the deadline for our teaser, this week?

maskedbandit101 · 07-21-2009, 08:38 PM

I'll be posting the challenge tomorrow, as close to 11:00 AM Central Time as I can, but I have a meeting with my principal at 9, so it might be a little later. If you can get me your teaser shots for challenge 3 by tomorrow, that would be great. Basically, if you haven't seen me post them, you can still submit.

SVT 305 · 07-22-2009, 11:57 AM

Here's a bump so you can post the next challenge.

maskedbandit101 · 07-22-2009, 02:37 PM

Challenge 4

When I think summer, I think of swimming. Some of the best theme parks in the world have water parks attached to them. These parks are a great way to cool off during the dog-days of summer, and to not include them in a Summer Showdown competition would be a crime. Therefore, for this challenge, you will be required to create a pool complex (smaller than a full-fledged theme park). The requirements for the pool complex are:
= One wave pool, complete with waves.
= Two slides (minimum, more are allowed and encouraged). Speed, family, gentle, body, tube, mat, aquablaster, all are up for grabs in this challenge.
= One of your slides must be heavily themed in accordance to the overall theme of your park.
= One stall/shop that sells water park gear, i.e. sunglasses, sun screen, inflatables, etc.

This concludes the official challenge portion of the competition. More concrete information about the next step will be coming in the final days. Thanks, and I hope you've found the challenges both fun and, well, challenging.

RCT3Callum · 07-22-2009, 02:45 PM

Epic challenge! I can't wait to see these parks! And no teasers?

liamrocks · 07-22-2009, 02:52 PM

I think off the older teasers, I can name each teams park. I like em, and cant wait for the finish!

Boston · 07-22-2009, 02:55 PM

Yeah wtc are the teasers!

I remember back in the day when we didn't slack off during competitions!!

SVT 305 · 07-22-2009, 03:02 PM

Oh man, way to leave the hardest challenge for last. That Houston heat must be making you crazy.

Boston knows too much about Teasers! Please say they reveal something more than a door! DON'T give him ideas!

If you're not posting any someone will send you one in 50 years:

maskedbandit101 · 07-22-2009, 05:02 PM

Ha, SVT, these challenges were planned out BEFORE drafting for captains began, so it's not the Houston heat (which is mighty, btw). I'll post the teasers later tonight, so if someone wants to give me the ol' bumpity bump before than, I'd be appreciative.

towersdude · 07-22-2009, 05:16 PM

I shall happily bump! As I am ever anxious to see the teasers so that I can laugh at how they are all so inferior muhahaha!! :P

Bump!

RCT3Callum · 07-22-2009, 05:38 PM

Yay - can't wait to see!

Outta interest - what was Boston's Team's teasers like? A corridor?

Jerr_Oen · 07-22-2009, 05:44 PM

It was a hat .. a red one and some ginger bread, too.

RCT3Callum · 07-22-2009, 07:49 PM

I'm suing you. Please come to court tomorrow.

I want my teasers, and now I have to go to bed!

</rant>
I still want teasers though!

03gibbss · 07-22-2009, 07:55 PM

^ It's like 5pm in America! Masked said he'd post them tonight so I assume they won't be up till around 3am UK time...

LostThought15 · 07-22-2009, 08:34 PM

I love this challenge.

SVT 305 · 07-22-2009, 08:34 PM

Atari should have a function that tells everyone what time it is around the world. Or they could use the internet to find out!
