    Round 3 - Microstates

     

     

     

    Some countries are so small, you'd almost miss them on a map. Europe notoriously has some of these, like Liechtenstein, San Marino or Andorra. Sprinkled all over the planet are many island nations too, such as Grenada or the Maldives. A microstate can be defined by its area or population. For our Grand Tour, we define a microstate as a country that has a land area smaller than 5000 km² (1930 mi²), regardless of the population.

    Objectives

     

    In addition to the general contest rules, two objectives have been set for this round. In this round, rule 1 regarding the minimum and maximum map size is replaced by the second objective 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 a microstate, following the definition above

    2. Your park must be between 50 and 500 tiles

     

     

    Submission

     

    Submit your park through a PM with Liampie, posix and CoasterCreator9 as the recipients. If your park is a duo, include information about the creator shares. If you want your park to be eligible for an accolade, also state your submission type preference.

     

    Submissions are due on Sunday September 20th, no later than 23:59 GMT.

    It's possible I'll be participating depending on my study schedule this week. I do have a pretty particular concept in mind though!

  • Coaster-GEOFF%s's Photo

    I'm in. Just have to see if my partner still wants to join or wait till next one as it is such a small project...

  • FredD%s's Photo

    I'm gonna try to send something in, but a week isn't much. Put me on the list.

    Interesting. I love microstates. They often have such silly ways of life or histories

    Watch the movie "The Mouse That Roared".

    I'll try to whip something up in an evening.
  • Liampie%s's Photo

    I thought I was the only person who has seen that movie! Great recommendation.

    I love the idea of this round, I have always had a strange fascination with micro states. Unfortunately I haven't been able to play recently due to other obligations in real life and therefore I won't be joining. But I am looking forward to seeing all entries.

    if somebody is looking for a partner, hit me up. won't be able to build a solo probably.

  • In:Cities%s's Photo

    so just to be clear - we CAN'T build a kiddy coaster in Vatican City?

  • Scoop%s's Photo

    I guess I'll work on something.
