He who travels has stories to tell!
Round 1 - Cuba
Our bags are packed, our visas approved, and a catsitter has been hired. We're ready to get this journey underway! The first leg of this trip brings us to Cuba - the land of Fidel Castro and Che Guevara, of cigars and missiles, of rusty cars and the Buena Vista Social Club, the Bay of Pigs, an exceptional literacy rate, and much more! We leave it up to you which parts of the island you want to explore.

Objectives
In addition to the general contest rules, three objectives have been set for this round. The entries will be judged through a public poll, determining the degree to and manner in which you completed the objectives, as well as the overall quality of the submission.
1. Your park must be set in or themed to Cuba.
2. Your park must contain at least one water ride of any kind.
3. Your park must contain a custom/in-house built ride, that is, a ride that is not built by any known manufacturer.
Submission
Submit your park through a PM with Liampie, posix and CoasterCreator9 as the recipients.
Submissions are due on Sunday August 16th, no later than 23:59 GMT.

The third rule is a bit unclear. Can I just put in a top spin and say it's built in-house? -

Yes but that would be a lazy way of meeting the third objective, and it'll likely cost you in the polls. The idea is that you build a ride that is clearly built in-house. I would personally think to do that through unorthodox shapes, materials, or maybe even questionable quality in general. Backyard coasters apply, for examples, but also The Ultimate in Lightwater Valley. It's up to you to get this point across! If you can do it with a top spin, sure, go for it!

Signing up, looking for a productive partner to bounce ideas and inspiration off of. No goals in mind, just looking to get back to building since I’ve kinda lost touch with RCT in the last month or two. -

As I said on Discord, if anyone is looking for someone with a cool(ish) idea, and who will definitely start a map and then never touch it again after the first day, I'm your guy

No idea who would want to team with me but I'm always up for new experiences. Sign me up as a player searching for a duo.

soft signing up; I'd like to build something realistic that's not too labor-intensive - looking for a partner interested in similar.

I'll sign up for a duo. If someone's looking to lead a park but would like some assistance I'm ur girl.

I'll sign up for a duo since I don't think I can do this on my own. I like what dr. dirt is suggesting myself.

Oh man, I'm down as hell!
Ready to get my ass kicked by all of you big boys!
But, if someone wants to pair up with this noob to do all the dirty works, I'm down with that though!
So sign me up, looking for a. Partner!
Edit:
Yeah, that's also my story. Realism all the way and would be cool to have a more experienced partner to take this to a next level!soft signing up; I'd like to build something realistic that's not too labor-intensive - looking for a partner interested in similar.

I'm gonna try to deliver. I'll be flying solo I think unless someone hits me up.
Question: is a ride considered to be in-house if it's clearly made from pieces from real constructors? Like they found some pieces from constructor x and merged it together with pieces from constructor y.

this is exciting! I really like the theme and objectives - a great way to encourage some unconventional ride design

Lots of people looking for duos! I hope you guys are also looking at each other. We're not going to make the matches for you!

That sounds a lot like the coaster in Morow World, which I think certainly qualifies.

It also sounds a bit like Phantom's Revenge - part Arrow, part Morgan. However, that's still a very professional job by a common coaster manufacturer. That would certainly be a no.
Does this help?
