Pro Tour 2 / It REALLY Begins This Time!

hahaha.  This is classic stuff guys, I know I won't win but I WILL be the only non parkmaker to hit the top 5 (EAT THAT X250!!!!).

Oh and here's a screen that shows you a lot and absolutely nothing all at the same time:



Yes I <3 double deckers.

Why so giddy all of a sudden ride6?

Oh and kickass screen.

The giddiness (if it can be called that) is an illusion, I'm still not nearly as far as I'd like to be. Thanks for liking the screen BTW.

And they say my colors suck

Honestly that is just really plain and uneventful looking.

The colors could be worked out into something great if they weren't so random. I could see a very nice theme with the bright pastels but then you ruin it with the grey and green. Nice forms though, and awesome window placement.

It... yeah, shows a lot and nothing.

In other words, it's like most of the screens posted so far.

Watch Out!



I've completed my entry btw.. Just fine-tuning all the way to the deadline (maybe I'll send it a bit earlier), because I always find some points of improvement..

...11 days...ouch...79.7%...

Slick, very classy there Mag. I wasn't even expecting you to enter with all the talk but I'm really looking forward to it after seeing that screen.

Magnus wins.

Damn, I love that screen...

I have a few questions.

First, the dumb one. Is the entry due in by the end of Jan. 25th (that is, 11:59 PM Jan. 25), or before the beginning of Jan. 25th (that is, 11:59 PM Jan. 24)?

Secondly, is it alright to include a readme? I don't think anyone did last time, so I wasn't sure. I actually don't have a readme yet, and I doubt I'll have time to make anything interesting, but just in case I do...

Thirdly, along the same line of thought, could I include a logo, concept art, or that sort of thing? I haven't actually made a logo yet, and I almost definitely won't have time for it, but I do have 6 jpegs (about 700 kbs) of concept art, so if you do allow it, but you don't want all that, I understand. I imagine if readme's aren't allowed, this won't be either.

Anyways, I'm still crossing my fingers that I'll get an entry in. I've really started kicking up the work pace, but I have an essay due on Friday, so I don't have much free time. Today in class I made a checklist of all the little things I need to do in my park before I'll consider it complete (not including the section which I don't think I'll have time for) and there are about 60 items, some big and general ("Landscaping"), some minor ("****: *** ****'s Queue Cover"). I think if I can force myself to get about 7 done a day, I may finish in time.

Readme's are fine. Xcoaster, if you need an extra couple of days let me know. As long as I know you're on the verge, I'll let you send one in.

Nice screen Magnus. Somehow, it reminds me of Dark Janus' older stuff

Who says I'm going to enter.
Maybe I'm just using this thread to promote my solo.

One question:

does the same anonymity rule apply as it did with h2h parks??

I didn't see anything on pg 1 about that....

i think there was a long discussion about that rule and as far as i remember it was said that the same annonymity rule applies. but i'm not sure about that anymore.

and there is the question if there is any use for this rule. look at the screens shown here and i'm sure it would be easy to find out who built what. and if someone wants to stay annoymous he can still do that.
just my opinion on that.

You can have your name on it, mine does and as far as I know im not DQ'ed or anything.

because you will make last place anyway

It doesn't matter, folks. Look at Epica. It has PHTG in ice cubes on the side of the park. Go ahead and put your name.

Secondly, is it alright to include a readme?  I don't think anyone did last time, so I wasn't sure.

Phatage did for Epica.

Anyways, great screen there Magnus. I like the use of red.
