  Quite nice! Apologies for the late release. If it's any consolation, I don't think this would've been good enough to get you in the top 66 sign ups for H2H. It shows a lot of promise though (as did you previous works). It's a very pleasant creation to look at overall, and snow themes are hard to make look good. The coaster was unorthodox and had some awkward parts, but it was never terrible and it had some great interactions and set pieces. The architecture looked too much like an arrangement of excessively thick club sandwiches rather than actual buildings. Undefined layers upon undefined layers. A nice arrangement of club sandwiches though. It flowed quite well. Maybe the biggest flaw of the map, in my opinion, is the theme. It seems to me that you didn't make a distinction between setting and theme. Setting: snowy landscape. Fine. Theme: snow? The rides are named Snowblind, Snowstorm, Snowplough, and... Merry Go Round. The map's whole theme can be summarised with the word 'snow'. There's also some random Christmas stuff like the giant tree (nicely done, btw), the 'Sleigh Ride' ride (assuming that's a Christmas reference) and some of the wreaths. So what is this park? Generic place in generic snow landscape during Christmas time? If you focus on a well defined theme (separate from the setting) then it doesn't matter if the buildings look like club sandwiches or not.
  
  Now that I''m typing, some minor offenses:
  - flags blowing in different directions
  - unnamed food stalls (these are an opportunity for storytelling and they make your park more polished)
  - waterfall coming from nowhere
  - you've got some cool extreme landscaping going on on one side of the map, you could've used this to add variation in the rest of the landscape which was pretty featureless. Side-friction could've used some flavouring
  
  This is a long reply, shit. I'm still in H2H-reviewing mode

  I really like the wooden coaster station, even though I have no clue what its actually supposed to be

   

  not bad. I liked the landscaping around the second mountain the white coaster goes over. the rest was a bit 'splotchy' and a bit smoother which sort of killed the vibe. the tree was a neat touch though

  That wooden coaster is pretty cool. I also really liked that christmas tree. Landscaping is not badly done too. The foliage feels a bit too random for me, i think you could have done more with it, same goes for the archy that is feeling a bit plain. This still shows off some talent, and i'm looking forward to see more releases by you, since i'm still thinking you have the abilities to do great things in this game. 45%
