my vote goes to frankenstein, although it wasn't much of a park. it wasn't a park at all actually. and the fact that the lone coaster made nothing but left turns was extremely poorly thought out, if there was any thought put towards that at all actually.
Heavens Kitchen: I quite enjoyed the park. The references (that I got) were great, I know I missed quite a few of the references which sucks. As said before your park did miss the wow factor. But opening it in-game definitely made me change a bit of that opinion. The greatest feature of this park is that it is just one big moving park. It has a lot of cohesion which I did like about it. I'm also rather intrigued how you build something this big in only a month. Kumba's time zone system? I don't know but I also have some thougts on who built on this. I'ma leave those thougts for later though. Great park!
Reservoir Dogs: While this was a lot smaller it was really awesome. The black and white was really creative and made it very atmospherical. The coaster was cool and I quite liked the small things like the peeps getting stuck in the castle and farmer bob. I also really liked the concept of this. Those walls -name- usually uses in it's castles. We all know one player who built on this but I'm pretty sure there were more builders. I'll leave those thougts on that later.

EDIT: By the way, it totally just hit me that Atlantean Ark looks a lot like Ge-Ride's work, if anyone even remembers him.
Ge-Ride was much better at coloring though. There are parts of Atlantean Ark that I love, but some of it looks like what I imagine most realistic builders see when they think "fantasy park".
Neither park did too much for me, but the technical skill of Frankenstein was much higher than that of the Atlantean Ark. I liked the sense of scale both had with the huge architecture, and the bit of homage Atlantean was to the old-school parks.
In the case of Frankenstein, the gray-scale effect was certainly cool but as others have said it just blended together the more I looked at it. Technicolor ftw! I liked the perspective of the castle, how it was dominating over everything, but it was almost too much in focus. The brilliant town beneath had no action whatsoever and seemed just utterly lifeless, which was a real shame. The amount of noise from the castle ruined much of the atmosphere, though you could argue it was the machinery and such inside that was "meant" to make the racket. I'd argue otherwise.
Like said above the coaster wasn't the greatest, but being one of the least coaster-focused people here I initially thought it was pretty decent, it just didn't go well with the castle theming (which in my opinion wasn't too amazing, but I just didn't like the style it was made in).
The Atlantean Ark just seemed repetitive and rushed, with much of it having the potential to be pretty awesome (the observatory comes to mind). Most was just too [obnoxiously] colorful, and many of the rides just seemed thrown in there for the sake of having rides (ex. the Merchant pirate ship). These weren't integrated into the theming very well.
Exactly. You have to realize that I'm 52 years old and I've been through pretty much everything that life can toss at you. I've developed my "attitude" over time from life experiences. And, I just don't have patience for idiots. Sort of like a Red Forman on steroids. And a full head of hair.
Oh yeah, also. I'd give this one to the Dogs -- I liked the creativity and water pallet trick; really helped to pull off the Frankenstein theme. Felt like it was right out of a isometric version of the movie.
Is That the show where they compare the fighting styles of people from history ... I am pretty sure i seen a al capone vrs someone else and a scotsman vrs a zulu ?
Hey Luketh....that dude in your av is a fucking perv. My daughter showed me that fuck on YouTube or something...said he scared the shit outta her. Leave it to YOU to use it as an avatar.
What a shitshow...shame one of these quality parks in the wake of this topic. Though a fairly simple idea, the greyscale in Frankenstein has opened up a lot of possibilities for future ideas. I call the patent for an acid trip pallet.

Well that's funny. I figured that - after fifty-two years of "life experience" as you so proudly described - somewhere along the road you would've gained the ability to sort yourself out whenever there's a bunch of adolescent pricks having a go at you over a bloody thirteen year old computer game. But nothing could be further from the truth, as in said fifty-two years you never learned how to stay polite, you never learned how to keep yourself calm, you never even learned how to behave properly. In fact you never picked up a thing, except for being an awfully arrogant wanker, conjuring up your self-esteem from your "accomplishments" in a tycoon game. Luckily I never played the game as fanatically as you do, nor am I planning on doing so. Flip side to that though is that your accomplishments are of no value whatsoever. And as you dexterously concluded yourself, your life beside rollercoaster is, alas, quite pitiful... Well then, must've been one hell of a load of life experience, I reckon. So don't credit yourself all too much, champ. The comparison to Red Foreman went quite over it. All I can say is I'm sincerely happy for you that you didn't pick up on a game like, let's say, World of Warcraft. You would've offed yourself in a week.
Alrite, hope your pockets are big enough to fit that one in. Oh, who am I kidding...
I love your attitude for ppl. haha you only call ppl a fucking dumbass well, when they're being a fucking dumbass. and if the other person gets offended by it. fuck it. you'll get over a few hurtful words a an online forum.
Well you're a fat cunt, and so is yer mum. Oh don't get offended now babez, we all know it's just an online forum!
...most unthoughtful reason of the week, good grief. Your attempts to crawl deeper up his arse must be throttling your blood circulation.
/\ Have you ever seen a sentence coming from his way, that wasn't drowning in grammatical errors? There's your answer. It's an honour to be compared to that handsome fellow, but you're far too kind. I'm just a nobody, kicking at random shins because I like the sight of bruises.
Good god Mouse what is wrong with you? It takes a lot on this forum to make me angry but congratulations.
That was possibly the single most hipocritical post I've ever seen on these forums. And that post is a stream of vile, unsportsmanlike and useless drivel that has no place on this forum. Especially as the whole thing had essentially finished and you just posted to start it up again.
I'm not defending other peoples actions previously but you have just proven yourself as bad if not worse than anyone before. Why are you trying to get K0ng riled up an angry? what exactly do you hope to achieve? In life you will always meet people you don't agree with and if this is the way you act I categorically and honestly feel sorry for you.
Why can't people just calm down and think before they post? The annonminity the internet gives is not an excuse to act like an idiot. I've said it time and time again on these forums and it's clear you've ignored everything that's been said. I don't addvocate bannings on this forum but if any post I've seen recently deserves one its yours.
I hope K0ng doesn't react and takes the high road here. but I wouldn't blame him if he doesn't.
