Congratulations to the winners.
Round 2 Of East Bracket:
1.mantis
8.Alec
5.Twisted
4.Mortician
All top seeds advanced in this bracket, congratulations to the four of you. Two very promising match-ups...two of the most creative parkmakers in mantis and Alec, and possibly the most even match-up possible with Twisted vs. Mort. Can't wait to see who advances!

The title was fitting, and intriguing, too.
What was up with Themeparkmaster's?, that was like just a small coaster or somthing and was no real challange.

By the way, doesn't the gorilla entertainer named "Mort" in Mortician's entry break the rule "do not have your name or hints in there anywhere about who may have made the park."?
I thought 'APPOLOgies' would have been enough of a hint. I'm just as annoyed as everyone else that I couldn't put in a decent entry but I just didn't have time. At least I bothered sending something in. Anyway, I liked Mantis' best this round, I loved the canyon it was built in, looks alot like it was inspired by Nemesis. It's the only coaster in RCT I have seen that captures the canyon feeling that Nemesis has.
How come there were 8 judges for mine and Alecs match up and 7 for the rest?
Oh, and since CGM's entry wasn't on the poll, I voted for Alec because I loved that fly by near the lift hill.
I personally think that may be an error. Who knows.

Pixel Juice - wow, amazing ride, Twisted. I would have voted for this if it hadn't been for my own entry! The colours were spot-on, and I really liked all the nifty tricks with the scenery. The layout was good, except for the inline-into-half-loop, because I always think a flyer is a license to use raven turns etc, so an inversion like that just looks less impressive. Anyway, awesome entry, even better name
Serenity - nice to see an entry with focus on architecture, especially when it's of this quality. The little theming touches like the tunnel and ride sign made this quite quirky. The ride was the best of the lot, I think, because it had interesting inversions and was exciting throughout. But don't give yourself away in future entries, or Iris might cotton-on!
Nadialane Forest Hangliding - great entry, Freak, I really liked that invisible first drop and the booster bit into the half loop (like a running leap lol). Didn't like the treeing much, mainly because the fluffy green ones were kind of uniform throughout. I thought clumps of greenery would have worked better. It's a shame this lost out, but I agree with the majority of the judges and put Pixel Juice ahead of this one. But the closeness of the match-up reflects the closeness of the quality. Those lookout towers look familiar, though...
Flying Dinosaur - nice lift hill/loop combination, and I thought the ribs kicked ass, but it was really, really sloppy. Looking forward to next round, dude.
Flying In A Blue Dream - well I think this would have looked miles better if you hadn't gone crazy with the land texture tool, but apart from that it was pretty nice. It did hurt my eyes, though. It's cool to see you experimenting with the groovy sculpture stuff, though - keep up with that because it's fun to look at.
Walking On My Brain - wow I think I now own the record for the park with the most spin-off named parks lol. Well, the double track thing ROCKED (might be using that one in the future), but apart from that it was messy. Very messy. Maybe that was the idea. You've got the spark, though.
APPOLOgies - what happened dude
I tried to make mine an active park - people would have to explore to see all of it. Hopefully people aren't too scared to rotate every now and then. It was fun doing the inverse of normal landscaping - building downwards rather than upwards - and also playing about with the track scenery. The best thing to come out of that experience was making those poles at one height mark above ground - I thought they looked pretty cool and they weren't that hard to do. John is one mechanic because he likes The Faint too. I hope people like it, because I had fun making it.
Great job on a complete bracket, guys. I'm looking forward to more of that in the future
PS oh and did anyone else like my half-sunken half loop ribs? They took fucking ages.
The landscaping was perfect and the layout kicked ass. Can't wait for more entries.
