New Element Newsflash

Spring 2021 Edition

_____________________________________________________________________

Head-2-Head 9 Schedule Change
After a brief exchange among admins and captains, we have decided to move the entire H2H schedule back by a week, starting with the Round 5 deadline. Instead of July 4th, the deadline is now July 11th. The final H2H9 deadline will now fall on September 19th. A bit more time to catch our breath before diving into the madness again!

Head-2-Head 9 Mid-Season Evaluation
We promised you some entertainment during the break. We lied - there will be no posix stand-up comedy or geewhzz ballet performance, and Liam's cooking workshop has been cancelled due to a lack of demand. However, surely we all enjoy talking about RCT as much as we like building in RCT. Therefore you're invited to reflect on the H2H9 so far, including community nominations for upcoming awards. What are the highlights of the season so far? The best coasters? The best park concept? The best details? And where is the H2H9 meta heading?
