Voting

Voting Guidelines
You are expected to view all entries and cast a fair vote. It is considered very poor comradeship to vote with bias. We also ask you not to vote unless you've viewed all entries in the game. Aside from the general quality of the entries, you're also supposed to take into account how well each entry meets this discipline's objective as described above.

We are closing polls after ~3 days. Entries on a tie receive the same amount of points. There won't be any waiting for a decisive vote. Votes are also public this time to counter cheating.

There are two polls; one for your favourite entry, one for your second favourite. Votes in the former poll will weigh twice as much.

Coasters with themeing, or just dueling coasters?

If you want to submit something completely bare and unfinished, go ahead. But of course you're supposed to deliver a finished product. Even if your coasters are 10/10 I think it would lose against 7/10 coasters with just minimal content and finishedness. Same logic as always, really.

mobius coasters accepted?

If you can do a mobius with different track types

Are three way racers allowed?

The rules state that two coasters must duel and they must be the main rides on the map. It is very possible to add a third coaster, but it has to be significantly smaller so that there is no confusion over which rides are the main rides.

Why must everyone always look for ways to bend the rules?

Because these rules are super specific, I'd prefer a bit broader guideline that would allow for more experimentation etc... But this is still fine.

"Super Specific" lol.

I suspected this would be the objective! It should be a good one I think, I'm looking forward to seeing some creative entries.

Liam is no-fun man and doesn't want your filthy triple fuelling coasters. THE RULES APPLY

jk this is fun though

can't tell if triple posted on purpose

what's interesting is that the second post is different than the first and third

Interesting is also that the word triple is mentioned in the posts.
Investigators are now trying to find answers whether these three post (two identical and one slightly different) could symbolize the two duelers, and the third smaller coaster mentioned earlier.
The investigation will continue.

^There are some things mankind just shouldn't attempt. Frankencoasters are one of those things.
