BTW, for those who cared, the World Showcase logo was made by J K and the readme was written by yours truly.

think thats about it. some things where build by one and improved by the other etc.
I was a nice experience working with cam. he had some really nice ideas and personally I loved some of his archy. to bad we got some time issues in the end. thats why the space area looks a bit unfinnished. it was suppost to be more for cam but because he didn't had time at the end I had to finnish it up and didn't really know what to do.
I tought our styles matched pretty good and it didn't really look like two seperate parts. I tried to include some new things in this park which I hope will find theire way in some main stream parks. cam proved to be valueable in this cause he sometimes came up with nice ideas which I was able to execute. Milo had some nice ideas to (like the ship battle).
The hardes part for me would have been the castle cause I always want castles to be to large and to wide spread. Cam seems to have this issue a bit also but less problemetic than me. thats why he got to do the castle. Personally I would have done it a bit more acurate to the time period but I still think cam did a wonderfull job.
Congrats on World Showcase guys. Robbie was extremley fast and he built what he needed to when he needed to. Your commitment to the team is awesome. Gwazi possibly one of the games best duel players? More released work and you may top that list. Kumba delivers as always and the initial idea was brilliant and your Aussie whirl was awesome.
Congrats team.
As for the rest, it's nice stuff like I would have expected. I don't really follow Gwazi much because he's more LL, but from what I could see he's pretty damn sick at RCT2 also. Levis, Kumba, and Robbie were dead give-aways though haha.
Nice work guys. Great way to start H2H.

Anyways, I very much liked both parks. I thought our park had a definite win coming to it, as I thought we got a lot done in a short time and the result was better than most parks from any previous season, but I guess the Hurricanes have shown that H2H5 has a lot in store, as their park was easily comparable to ours. Their park concept was lacking in originality, and it was definitely cramped, but as an outsider to the contest it would've gotten my vote (sorry team). As seen by my history, I'm fond of the country theme, I like Disney parks, I prefer detailed semi-realism, and the park reminds me of some of my own stuff. I think my favorite thing was the parade, as I've wanted to do that for a while, but it's always been too much of an afterthought for me (as it may have been here, since it looks like it has nowhere to go). I liked how well each float conveyed its theme in a tiny space. And I liked the fireworks, especially the infrastructure for it, though I'm surprised Kumba allowed them. In our park I loved the trebuchet as it was very realistic in its operation. I thought the castle and surroundings were very impressive too (during construction I initially thought that was going to be the entire park). The naval battle was also really neat.
It was nice working with Levis, always cool to open up the park to see new awesome hacks. I was planning on making the castle more appealing but was gone the last 3 days and didnt have time to build it. So a lot of added details and foliage we couldnt add, as we were focusing on just getting it finished. Oh and we also wanted to build a torture chamber with an iron maiden ride
However, had I not have built Art of War, the ideas in it as well as the scale might have impressed me enough upon initial view for me to vote for it, while World Showcase was a pretty standard park with some nice touches. But it is completely biased, or maybe better put subjective. Not because the team wants their park to win, but theoretically they build what they like best so if it comes out how they want, then they will like their work better than anything. Some things didnt come out quite as good as I wanted in my park, but I still probably would have voted for it due to personal preference.
oh and look who's talking.
sounds like you guys were a little more "butthurt" than me.
and yes i did see what you said about our park. did you see what i said about yours (other than what everybody attacked me for)? most people seem not to notice.
Haha. I never realized that. I guess it was put in after I gave it to Kumba, because I never put my name in there. Whatever. At least it got done.

Nice readme, btw.
I never got a chance to vote. Oh well. It would of gone toooooooo........
>Hurricanes!<
A lot of it reminded me of Epcot. And some of the attractions, (even though they may not of been in the park originally,) seemed to blend in rather seemlessly. The Illuminations show went well and it was a pleasant surprise. Loved the log flume.
The Elementalists:
All in all... Too much hack was forced into a too small space. And old saying comes to mind. 20 lbs of "stuff" packed into a 10 lbs. bag. Nice work, but I feel like I was beaten over the head by "Look at all the hacks we did!" Most of my time was spent trying to figure out the hacks, and not enough time was spent taking it in.
