I remember when you started it and I was thinking it was going to be a flop, but you totally turned it around and made my impression the complete opposite. I may just have to install WW to see this bad boy. Thanks for the Christmas present.

A questions about the coaster choices:
Everything seemed to be pretty accurate to real world time and event stuff, although I'm wondering about Demon. Was that supposed to be on the line of the Great America ones? Since those were Marriott decisions...
Besides that, some good stuff in there... I'm impressed with the speed Racer kept on the layout and I really like how you did the helixes on Son of Beast... they flowed really well despite having to be giant and angled.
Anyway, nice job and congrats on the win.

It's a great realistic park, along the lines of Premier Amusement Park and SFWOE as mentioned, but does contain its own identity and creativity.. I can only applaud these kind of styles although I like more densely themed styles too..
If anyone needs the WW expansion, PM me with your e-mail address and I can send it... It's certainly worth it!
Oh, and congrats zburns! You deserved it..

@JDP: Thanks man. What you say is totally true though. I improved so much over the two years I worked on this that I actually had to go back and renovate all of the earlier stuff.
@Corkscrew: I have a feeling that I'll be getting that a lot. Really though, I feel terrible for the people who would like to see this but can't. Not much WW scenery is in the bench though, so maybe someday it can be de-WW-ized. Thanks for the compliments though.
@Levis: Haha. Thanks.
@CP6: I really can't stress how much I appreciate the review. I couldn't have asked for anything better. And I'm really pleased to know you enjoyed the park--as I hoped most of the realistic builders would. As for Demon, that's a damn good question. I really don't have an answer. As you said, Demon is a Mariot staple coaster. I do know that, but I guess I never put two and two together. I guess the same thing goes for the double decker carousel, eh?
@Six Frags: Thanks a lot man. It means a lot to hear it coming from such a great parkmaker. Glad to hear you have WW on hand too...you're one of the few.
@Ge-Ride: That's an odd situation. I look forward to hearing your review when you work things out though.
@ride_exchanger: Thanks r_e. I look forward to hearing your review also.
Thanks again for the replies everyone.

From the screens, this is looking a great park!.
When I began playing RCT2 in 2005, I had WW installed.
Changing to a new computer, I have not anymore, and up till now I did not find the time to re-install it , so I have not looked at the park in-game in yet.
I made my first park with (just a few) WW-things also, completely unaware that by doing so many people would not be able to view it, and not having a clue to how I could make it WW-free afterwards.
For me it was Tyandor who offered to make my park WW-free (still thankfull forever to him for that!).
In the meantime,by now I could do that myself, so if (for time-issues) it are not tons of WW-scenery/rides you used, and if you are interested, give me a pm and I will give it a try to UN-WW it.

First off, I will say that I have WW, so I was able to enjoy the park. What I loved most was that it wasn't riddled with complex buildings and incredibly detailed buildings. Instead, you have quite a few great coasters, Entropy being my personal favorite. It had a smooth layout, and some elegantly blended inversions. I thought that Grizzly was a bit sloppy, and I didn't like the high angle lift. The station gave off a nice vibe though! My second favorite coaster in the entire park was the Italian Job Stunt Track. It was a nicely themed ride that I just had to enjoy more than once! Unfortunately, it crashed after the 3rd time around. My 3rd place favorite would have to be Bat. It had a pretty good layout a really nice station. I liked the way you utilized the Intamin track, too. You get bonus points for that! The water rides were all very nice. Especially Class 6. I think you could've expanded a bit on the Flinstone's water ride. Maybe space out the track a little. It seemed cramped.
One of the most amusing things was the naming of the staff. It was actually an accedent that I found the tiger on parole in the Storytime Circle. I laughed and decided to check out the rest, and I continued to laugh. Although you named one of them Judice Priest, and it should be Judas Priest. (Sorry, I'm a big fan of Priest. ) I also noticed that Mr. Brownstown was part of the cleaning crew. And you can't forget Burger Meister Meister Burger (from Santa Claus Is Coming To Town).
If it wasn't for WW (quite possibly one of the worst expansion packs ever made), I think this would've been Spotlight worthy. I'll definitely be looking at this again from time to time. Again, congrats, and I hope to see more work from you in the near future!

I think the best coaster was probably Entropy, except for the high lateral g's thru the corks at the end, it was a good layout.
Good call on adding the kinds of coaster that are not glamorous but make a park complete IMO, like the Mack Mouse and the Intamin Impulse coaster. There is generally not alot of creativity involved if you are going to make a "realistic" version of either of these, but they are import to the overall feel of the park nonetheless.
The working double station on the log flume was nice, I still haven't bothered to learn how that hack is done, so its quite impressive to me
IJ:ST was very well themed, good job there. But one coaster that I thought was under-themed was Thunder Run. That whole area of the park seemed to be overcrowded with rides and not enough scenery, but it doesn't detract from the park too much, hence the Blockbuster win
As others have said, Bat was another good coaster. But I thought the John Allen racers could have done with alittle more layout variation, too many consecutive humps IMO. I guess this is another case where realism took precedence, though.
Overall great job, zburns, congrats on the win!

Emergo: Thanks for the kind words. Oh, and I really appreciate your offer to help me out with the Wacky Worlds. I'll deffinitely take you up on that offer. I'll PM you this weekend about it.
Xin: I really appreciate the full review man. Glad to see you caught the staff names too. I didn't really think anybody would notice. Most of them were either inside jokes, combinations of book titles on my bookshelf, or guitar hero songs my brother was playing while I worked on the park haha. And I'm ashamed that I mispelled Judas Priest (Electric Eye ftw). Thanks again for the review.
r_e: Again, thanks for the nice review. It's really cool to know that people are enjoying the park. Glad to hear you worked out some shortcuts too. I realized after I sent the park to Kumba that the far Ol' 49er station had no entrance and exit queue. I assume you fixed that one up haha. Also, peeps seemed to have a great deal of trouble finding Nuclear and Thunder Run. I spent way too much time observing the few peeps that actually made it to the back of the park haha.
Thanks again.

Too bad the peeps are stupid and get lost throughout the park.. lol when I was done looking at this park my park rating had dropped to 0!
I look forward to seeing more from you; this park has provided me with a much needed little bit of inspiration to start playing around with this game a bit more.
