I like the rule change, mostly the part about the voting being after.
Khufu should've won though.

^This is mostly why you can vote now. Im bad at scoring and I had a hard time deciding which one was better. The reason I gave it to rct2wiaard is becuase he not only had theming, but he had a story to it as as well.

UPDATE: Every week, the deadline to get your coaster in will be Saturday at midnight.

I'd like the idea of a judge commitee. It's not just one opinion then. Then you can take an average of all those scores, and then post it.

Get some more judges.

I think Im just going to let everyone vote for a coaster. If that doesnt work, then we can get a judge comittee.

^Sure.

Every week I will announce a new theming that you will have to use when building your coaster. The more theming the coaster has, the more likely you are to win.

Rules:

1. You must use RCT 2 and no other game otherwise you will be disqauilified.

2. You are only allowed to submit one coaster every week.

The deadline is 12am Sunday, meaning after 11:59 pm Saturday for those of you who didnt know.

After that, Me and the rest of the judges will get together and score e\the coasters.

1st place winner will recieve 1 reputation point from me.

Any questions or comments, please post here or PM me.

I suggest making it only Rct2 or Rct3.
The themeing advantage with anamatronics and such is unfair with Rct3, so it should be nailed down to one specific game.

Setting a panel of judges is better than letting others vote, cause they can vote for themselves, and you will have the same people everytime judging them rather than different people each time.

I think to make the game more chalenging and interesting, theming should be interpreted loosely. As in making the themes such as island or mountain, settings if you would rather call them. Also restrictions such as entirely over water or 100ft drop maximum. Also semi-specific coaster-types, wild mouse would include steel and wooden.

^No, you can't make restrictions on art which is basically what we're doing. But I like your idea of theming.


By the way, I suck at Jurassic Theming so I don't plan on submitting a coaster this week.

Ok, if you guys want a judge comittee, then Ill make one.

Galvan is the first judge. I need at least 2 more judges.

If I begin to see the same type of coaster used over and over again, then I will make it so a certain type of coaster will have to be used each week along with the theming.

I'll judge, as long as people put the file up for download. I'd rather explore the coaster for myself than just look at pictures.

I think that the way that we should do the votes is wait al the way to the end of the week. There shouldn't be a judge commity, everyone should be able to vote and there shouldn't be scores. You should vote once and it should be for your favorite one. You can't vote for your own coasters. That, to me, sounds alot better. I guess we could still have scores but I think that waiting to the end and voting for your favorite is better.
