CC NLT 2008 - Round 4 [RESULTS PG 4]

I've been toying with the idea of re-doing the crappy parts, giving the supports a make-over, adding an indoor park to go with the whole thing, and uploading a "real" version. When I'll have time to do this I don't know.

I gald to say that none of the tracks are disqualified. I hope to bring you the ratings ASAP.

whew

but

finally, a real contest

Yeah it's amazing that everybody actually submitted.

Yeah, with that whole 4-week ban thing floating around in the ol noggin, it's a lot easier to get motivated.

...if you care

^ OK, I understand the need to list what song was used in the video... but sticking a political message at the end of a NL Coaster movie is pointless, tacky, and unwelcome. If you want to make a "drill for oil in America" video, then make one. Leave it out of the vids that have nothing to do with it whatsoever.

That's like sticking a Viagra commercial in the credits of Bambi.

waah waah
save your fingers
if you dont like the video for the last 1.5 seconds, remove it, i wont be sad but theres 3 minutes of coaster footage...

its like sticking a viagra comercial in the credits of bambi...
this coaster was part of this contest
one of the members coasters was "natural male enhancement"
if my coaster is like bambi, the credits was like viagra

Since you decided to be a little jackass corey with your "global warming doesn't exist" crap I hope you enjoy a screenshot of your coaster not being contained within the template. The spine of the track intersects the floor of the template if you delete the footer you used to cover that. This section is right before the turn into the final brakes in the valley before that turn. IN the preview to your video is would be the very leftmost portion of track. Going through the floor is not keeping the track within the template.

Are you happy now? Have you made your point? Has your dumbass statement synced to crappy Linkin Park "music" based on absolutely nothing but you just deciding to ignore a problem made you feel better? If you want to present an opinion on an important global issue I suggest you get maybe half of an education first.

I hope you're banned since having the track go through the floor is the same as having it go through the wall.

^CK, if you delete that support and raise everything 15ft, and you fly under the hall, you can see that no track is come trough.

[Coasterkidmwm]

Damn lol.

how is speaking the truth being a jackass?
if you get so offended by that, maybe you should seclude yourself from everybody

This has already been mentioned, but sticking something like that on a NL video is pointless and irrelevant.
The problem with climate change is not that it doesn't exist (after all, our climate is constantly changing) or that it is not a cause for concern (we had better be worried, at the least), but rather the kind of people who wave it around to generate money for themselves while protesting the implementation of real solutions (such as nuclear power).


Back on topic, it's pretty awesome that everyone submitted a valid track this round!

Looks like the finals will be Jake, Kevin Brennan, Coasterkid, and, um... well, I really can't weigh in on the contest between unfortunate_smiley and myself. No doubt, he's got me dominated in the adrenaline and originality departments, but I've got him in technical and realism, so it's gonna be damned close IMO. Should be really fun to see who wins this one.

Actually CJD, I wouldn't say you got him technically and realistically. Your ride is extremely drawn out and relatively non-compact. Yours is also about 90% prefab supports. His is 100% custom supports. His is insanely compact, and just plain flows like you would expect a Euro to flow (other than the pumpy occasion). Yours appears to be too big in the overall aspect. His is just as tall as yours, but takes up less than half the area you did. That's a Euro-Fighter.

Who knows though, we'll just have to see how much hyyyper can determine about precision.

i like the idea of US's drop but idk how hyyyper will like it
and
the flow of his ride, wow, thats intense
so
i agree w/ gers

thats my opinion ... which none of yall care about

Well, I was speaking more of elements rather than flow, but you're probably right. I'm screwed. Technical ain't enough. Oh, well, I had fun anyway.

I'm excited that I'm most likely going to make the finals, although I would have liked to see Alton finish his track. So far I haven't made a ride I have been proud of at all, so I'm motivated to kick some ass next time around!

I liked three of them.........

Jakizle, I liked your track, it's in the three....

Wait, you're staff. Can you be banned?

[Coasterkidmwm]

No CJD you pretty much failed at shaping as always.
