Ancient Enchantments by Prince_Ashitaka
Since the release of his "EverQuest: Waters of the Past" Super Runner-Up many months ago, Prince had taken a hiatus from the site and seemingly nobody (other then Twisted) had heard from this persistent parkmaker in months. That was, until he released screens of his new three-map mega project "Project Ownage", easily his best work to date, which got all Prince's supporters in a frenzy...only to find that Prince would go missing for another long period of time. To my surprise, I found out from him on AIM that he was planning on entering the Pro Tour, which was the first I had heard from him since seeing the Ownage screens. And after all these months of waiting, what do we have? Improvement. All aspects of his parkmaking have taken a step up....maybe not from Waters of the Past, but definitely from any other park he's ever created. His architectural skills seem much more refined now, they used to have that 'something missing' feel but now they just feel right. The coasters too, same thing. While the end of the park was an obvious rush job, resulting in a lower ranking then he probably wanted, this entry does serve as the perfect preview to his newest project. Maybe he'll even be around the site one day to release it.
It had good architecture and theming.
It had a strong line-up of coasters.
And everything just seemed to fall together perfectly.
Oh, and those flowers in the Gatsby area are HOT.
Anyway.. nice job. Loved it.
i didn't really like this one. To me it still doesn't have any zing or whatever. The buildings are looking better, but not amazing (or atleast not throughout) The only thing i can really commend you on is the pretty smooth beemer, with yet an interesting layout. The woodie wasn't for me, nor that entire area.. a tad rushed too i think. the one building i really liked.. wait, are you calling me stupid.. well that was a nice building, the orange flower really added to that. Oh well, the entire theming was just a little too cliche for me, and i still think a lot of it is jotted down almost thoughtlessly (or atleast it looks like that to me)
If... WME would have judged

Again, nothing really caught my eye, made me want to look deeper in the park.
I guess it's just a personal preferance or something, but I just don't generally like these type of parks... Becuase nothing stands out.
But I'm not going to knock it, I know there was lots of skill involved, and it shows that it couldn't be done by just another person.
Prince really has this style down, and he can pull it off well, but like I said before, show me something interesting! Mix it up some.
Overall, though, this was a good park. Nice going Prince_Ashitaka!
Not bad but not my favorite so far.

Anyway, good stuff - more anticipation for Ownage now!

As I know and you know the later half was rushed which I guess really did affect the rest of the park and its ranking in the Pro Tour.
The Enterance and Duna De Arena were both excellent areas and if the rest of the park was up to that standard it would have placed much higher i'm sure. I love the architecture throughout both areas and the arch windows are done really nicely. Great coasters too.
The other areas although rushed wern't that bad, some of the architecture is really quite nice but the majority is more on the rushed side. Not to sure on the pink, but that's just me.
Well Done.
The Crusader was an excellent coaster, the foliage/architecture was good on the right side of the park, and the banner messages were entertaining, but that's about it. The wooden coaster seemed out of place (very odd layout, and not-so-hot ratings), and the Victoria section was very bland (nice flowers, though). The back jungle section was just boring.
The park was nice enough, I suppose... but I just don't see how it got the high ranking it received. If it had been ranked lower, I might have enjoyed it more, but after parks like Gouvia Point, 10th Kingdom, and , you raise the expectations, and this one didn't seem to meet it. Sorry, PA... but I'm still looking forward to Ownage.

but you know that i will always love you and Jesus both, Ashitaka. but at least Jesus doesn't listen to gay ass wannabe-hardcore metal bands.
Nice looking park. Cool Beemer.
