I've hated those guys ever since they banned me within a day with no good reason..

Seriously though, getting inspired = GOOD
rebuilding someone else's work for your own good = BAD

Was steve originally intended to build on this as this was supposed to be R5's submission?
Nice catch, yeah, it was a shame but I had real life obligations like Pacificoaster mentioned. I might not formally be attached to this park but I still like to consider it something of mine, since him and I were in it from the beginning, and it was a blast to brainstorm and see it finished. I still think it's probably the best modern park this site has seen.

People on other sites have been copying us here for a while now, so this is nothing new but still upsetting and weird nonetheless. I'll never understand how someone can go to such degrees of plagiarism and call it their own; they must be slightly disturbed, or just not clever enough.

On any other site a mod would probably ban the plagiarising member from competition, on that website the mod threatens those who object to the fact plagiarism defines the contest. Interesting.

Gotta love it... But hey, Pacifi, your work's gotta be pretty cool if someone puts that much effort into trying to copy it to his best of abilities hmn? Big compliment, albeit an extremely messed up one.

Yeh it's copying etc, but as Steve says, it happens all the time and has been happening for years. I know if I were PC, I'd be pissed at first but at the same time it is kinda flattering that someone would want to go to great lengths to copy my work.

I'm realy sorry for all the trouble around there. Just to make it clear: I'm not standing behind copying someones work, and I have talked to Legolord about it. I'm just a little stressed lately, so maybe I didn't make the right decission with deleting everything, but in my view the discussion was getting out of hand so thats why I stopped it.

Then about the banning, I can't ban anyone becouse I don't have the rights to do it. I didn't even kneww anyone was banned till now. So please don't be so harsh to me about that.

I've just looked back at this park, and honestly I think I was spoiled seeing it during construction. It made me miss so much of the skill and charm and brilliance that is now evident to me.

This is the best park ever in RCT. In terms of the level of skill, and the finished product, this is the park I would score highest. There might be parks I like more, due to the feeling they give me, or them being more my style, but purely in terms of making a perfect park, nothing has come closer to perfection than this.

Every piece of scenery (of which there are SO many) is placed in EXACTLY the correct spot. It just looks right. Very hard to explain, it's a feeling I get with Robbie's work, and also Fisch and 5dave. Like the building was meant to be. Like any other way of making a certain thing would have been worse. It is the best possible outcome. Every single thing in this park has never been done better, before or since. Backstage areas, the best. Tower of Terror, the best. By far. Dark rides, the best. I could go on.

Add to this the staggering number of ideas and quirky details; the perspective mural, the scenery wooden rollercoaster, the whole pier area from San Fran (which I appreciate far more now I live so close), the scenes from Disney movies recreated so perfectly, the theatre interior, the whole entrance area.... what it all adds up to is just a perfect perfect piece of parkmaking.

I don't think I really appreciated this park at the time, maybe due in part to a bizarre unspoken rivalry with my parks going before and after this one... call it petty jealousy. Looking back with hindsight, this is a masterclass, and you are undoubtedly a master.

I still consider DAW the benchmark for RCT. Whenever I go to build I pop this open and remind myself how amazing the game can be and to think this is a contest park? Mind blowing.

Nothing against the decision, but wouldn't it be good to have a deciding vote?

There was a deciding vote. 5 people voted this for spotlight, 5 didn't. It takes 7 yes votes to get spotlight.

Close call! This is not spotlight worthy. If this wins spotlight I'd argue that El Encierro is at least as worthy.

If any H2H park should win Spotlight this would be it. Personally I don't think any other H2H park is even close in that category, especially if this didn't even win it.
