The Seal Clubbers failed to get a park in, marking the first forfeit of H2H3. The anonymity rule won't do much for their season finale either, since there's only two people they can use for that park in order to avoid breaking the "must use everyone in a season" rule.
The IIIcon's park was made by the flying Germans. I mean the Germans: Magnus and Anolis. Congrats to the IIIcons, since they probably would have won anyway, but I'm sure the real Flying Germans might be a little irked at the turn of events. Still, they do control their destiny.
I'll comment furthur once I've opened the park.
PS: how did you get the new element screen scenery? it wasn't in the scenery selection tabs...
back to the week
i wanted to beat the seal clubbers in a regular week. i hate forfeits. we rushed like 45% of our park the last two days. participating in a contest for me means not to let down your teammates. (ok there are some exceptions i can imagine, but that's not what i want to talk about right here).
the fact that we knew who was going against this park was more like motivation to me.
the idea for the park, was really anolis and (mainly) my idea. we talked about some h2h ideas starting with a sandbox, that would have been cool aswell, but didn't give us many possibilities.
cause of that we decided to make a nursery. while starting to build i came up with lots of ideas for it and i really wanted to make it much more philosophical, but didn't have the time for it in the end. (i also wanted to make a big outside world, but there was no time for it and
(had to finish my skilled work for monday, maths exams tuesday, theoretical driving test thursday and i have/had to learn a lot for that).
some people *looks at posix* will say this one is no park, but what we wanted to show is, that rct is more than a game to create parks. what we wanted to do, is create a philosophical piece of art and this can sometimes even be harder than creating a park.
i also want to thank you anolis. you were a great help, though we both didn't have much time. your part of the nursery is just great and well excecuted. i especially love your carrera track.
thanks for the easy win. the team really needed this, but it would have been more fun to see the seal clubbers park. i'm pretty sure it'S finished so i don't see a reason that they didn't submit it.
i hope you had fun looking at our park. some more comments would be nice
As for the "not an amusement park" thing, for me, this is partly what H2H is for - the ideas and innovations that come with it. If you wanted to build an amusement park, then you'd start with a plus 120* bench. You could never have a section like this in a park. I mean, sure, primarily we should build parks because that's what the game's best suited to, but a little innovation here and there in competitions never hurt anybody. At the end of the day, it made me smile and I enjoyed it - and I'm sure you enjoyed building it - so if anyone argues against that then they're a fool.
btw, this week really wasnt intended to be a forfeit. We had a park finished and I don't know why it wasnt sent in...this actually fucked up our playoff schedule because now the park we had ready for this week will have to go next week.
This is really a fantastic park and I'm sorry it won on a forfeit.

Anyway, I was expecting a park too, since you guys are pretty good at meeting deadlines, so I'm not sure what happened. But I checked nedesigns@gmail.com on the morning after the due date and nothing was there. So *shrug*
i completly missed the idea with the outside world. we can discuss about the idea itself (which was pretty good in my opinion) but it's a fact that i didn't realized it in a good way.
the basic idea was the break the borders of the room and put in a symbol for growing up and starting to work.
when i had the idea i was thinking ab out a small city. starting as a modell city and being filled with life more and more by getting away of the "children's bedroom". i wanted to put in symbols fot the hard fight to be successful in normal life.
the digger was meant to stand in the room but work outside, as a symbol for growing up again. the same idea with the crane.
i have had many others ideas for this but we made some mistakes while starting the park which made it impossible to realize those ideas. maybe it would have been better to cancel the outside world completely, but it's a win anyways.
rct as art:
i personally think there are some ways to make real art with rct and no park. i really aim at making a piece of good looking art at this point. people like posix and others might tell me again that a park is art aswell and yes this is true, but a park is mainly a park. but art doesn't have to be a park.
it can really be interesting to look at such pieces of art and the can be as interesting as a normal park and maybe even more intersting.
