    OLE's writeup
    Match 11 marked the beginning of a string of upsets in Round 1 as Richie took on Gwazi. Gwazi is a fairly new player and has built himself up into a duel game threat. He is more known for his LL work however and leans toward it when given the option and it was LL he went with to create his Round 1 entry, Magma. Gwazi has actually developed a rather unique style in LL that relies more on raised land than most things you see now but he also is able to work in nice trackitecture details to round off his architecture. And even though he admittedly tossed Magma together in a few hours before the deadline, it still manages to show his natural talent. The theme is tropical with light colored wooden buildings, lush folaige, jungle animals and a volcano looming overhead. The coaster has a bit of an awkward layout with too much underground but the idea of it following the path of an eruption is pretty cool. There's also a flat ride and some nice little details like the use of banners as awning supports. Richie is an RCT2 player who has been around for a long time. His entry, Gargoyle, pulls off the dark theme nicely with a simple style that doesn't rely on overly detailed buildings or flashy hacks. The only ride is a nice but slightly short dive machine with some good interaction with its surroundings. The biggest problem is the whole entry is under-themed with the small space not being used to its full potential and leaves a lot to be desired. What was there was nice but there just wasn't enough of it and while Gwazi's entry was clearly rushed, it was still a touch better. Gwazi ended up getting 3 straight votes and moves on.

    Winner: Gwazi
