I don't have LL so I went for a null vote. I'm not gonna vote by screens but if I did, I would vote for The Vehemences as I feel had it been finished, it would be an incredible park.

Both parks gave a strong feeling of unfinnished.. ness...
The Mollestors park though has a better atmosphere and has more completeness....

. If the other park was finnished it would be a nice little park but in its condition its just chaotic and confused with no real direction.

Both very unfinished... However i went for Blossom Springs because it was more complete and the coaster was pretty cool, Aquatica, if finished would probably have been the easy victor in this matchup. I thought some of the ideas in aquatica were excellant, the coasters layout was pretty decent too. It is strange, but looking at aquatica... it would look complete if there was a 15ft layer of water throughout...

Blossom Springs: Other than the coaster, which was excellent, this park is roughly as interesting as watching paint dry. Blah. This would've probably lost it's round in h2h1 for the pure lack of material as it should now. Basically there was no effort made to make it interesting. No mountain in the middle, no 2nd coaster, not much for flats or pathing... Basically you have a nice giga there, one of the best I've seen in a good while (oh Nevis where art thow?) but that's not enough.

AQUATICA Ocean Research Center: Hacktastic coaster, times two. The one though is just It did a feaken map jump for gods sake. I have a vague idea how that may've been done but I never would've thought of it until I saw it. Everything that was here was as a whole, excellent. I can only prey that the "to be continued" part is true.

Blossom springs really didn't look that much more complete than Aquatica. It had a few buildings and a giga, which both look alot like Nevis' old Spitfire design. Everything else was trees. Nothing amazing at all, even if it was more "complete".

Aquatica, I think, had the best H2H idea in history (or at least tied with Battlefield), and would have probably been a contender for the greatest H2H park if it had been completed. Still, what was done was pretty fucking amazing. Deep Blue was awesome, that hack, damn. I don't know how you can call this coaster just "decent". What was completed here (which isn't much) was brilliant, and I also hope this will get finished, someday.

I voted for "Blossom Springs" for the obvious reason, but "AQUATICA Ocean Research Center" is vastly superior. I find it sad though that these "designer" parks are taking over. CoasterEd leads the pack in creativity but none of his parks are parks. And no, this isn't an attack on CoasterEd, actually, it's not an attack at all. It's a statement. If you want to win H2H, you can't make parks, you have to make ideas. Yes, they are fun to look at and they always amaze the viewer at how the designer ever came up with such an idea, but it is disconcerting that a park can't win. Just something to think about.

As an absolutely diehard LL fan, I must say, what an absolutely terrible round.

Of course I voted for my team, being a bigot.

As said, both parks are painfully unfinished...

Blossom Springs was okay. The coaster and decent attempt at custom supports were the highlights, otherwise, not much to say.

Aquatica (what's with parks ending in "ica" these days) was a little better imo. It had more rides and was slightly more interesting to look at. I liked where you guys were going with the theming too.

My vote goes to the Vehmences.

Come on this isn't even close.
Who cares if Aquatica is unfinished...two of the sculptures in there took more time then the entire park of Blossom Springs. This is real easy.
Aquatica.

AQUATICA was the better of the two. Even though it was incomplete, it looks like it took more time and effort was put into it rather than Blossom Springs. Also, that giga had a horrible layout; how could someone say it was like a Nevis giga?

Anyway, AQUATICA receives my vote.

Because it's built in the style that Nevis popularized with his version in UIX. Altho it was more of an RRP style IMO. It's just that Nevis gets credit for making the Millennium Force style giga, with the steep lifts and stuff. So "Nevis style" but not "Nevis quality."

There's just so much more in Aquatica, even unfinished. It bristles with an aura of the spectacular. Compared to that, Blossom Springs is hardly even adequate, at least IMO. It really didn't have much other than a nice coaster. And I don't think it's a true reflection of the skill of the creators either; the team was probably focusing on the playoffs.

I was saying that we need Nevis to come back and remind these fools how a giga is ment to be built. Sorry if that wasn't clear the first time.

Maybe its me, but I'd prefer if people didn't try to build rrp or nevis gigas and instead if anything build Intamin ones, or at least know that mf was the inspiration for nevis. I also wish that gigas would be built to the actual height that makes them a giga, which would basically be the max height in rct, but I guess that would look ugly and thus be bad.

Could someone please finish the Vehemences park, I really need to see it done.

The giga in Blossom Springs was really bad. The second half was completely pointless meandering. Other than that it was just trees.

I agree - the giga was nice: good supports and whatnot... but the second half of the ride was SO boring...

both ll

that should tell you enough about the vote counts, chapel_.
anyway, i voted for aquatica.

blossom, for a second, actually struck me as nevis. like, a design he did before uix but never released. clearances were still zero-ed so some of the track faded away. i don't know, the whole thing was more or less nothing.

aquatica didn't reach me either. i voted for it just for the rock's sake. because those were so beautiful. thanks to whoever made them.
