I am hereby asking hyyper to disqualify Vid_w, Mikado and Alton_ from the contest for violationg the guidelines of this round. Quoted from page 1.
Guidelines:

This ride will have OTSR?????????s, so try to stay below 1 G lateral. Vertical forces on B&M?????????s usually range from -1.2 to 4.5 G.

B&M layouts tend to be inversion after inversion, to many that may look dull, but if you study the orders of the elements, it requires at lot of thinking to make the order of the elements interesting. It is very important to keep the adrenaline rushing. Airtime is optional and be careful with full helices.

The use of scenery objects (tunnels, stations and what else), made from 3ds or supports is encouraged. To give you guys a start, a guitar is included with the track. You may resize, rotate, move, clone or delete this guitar. If you like, you can even change the damn color. (Note that the guitar is not mine, as I do not take credit for it. It is freeware and may be used by anyone).

Take note that the focus of this round in on originality. So the colorsheme, theming and name could get you (extra) points. This of course does not mean your track will get rated high if it's slow and bumpy.


and quote from Vid_w's track description:
Thanks to:
Alton-: supporting me throughout tje whole process of building this coaster, testing and teh cool screenshot!
Mikado: also, supported me all the time, tested and made the aweosme tunnel!
Everyone else that tested!

Disqualify Vid_w for getting not working alone and getting the help of alton_ and mikado for making hsi ride more original and 3ds. This is a tournament of your skill, not of group skill.
Disqualify alton_ for adding to the originality and theming of Vid_w's track for making the original screenshot used on the upload.
Disqualify Mikado for making the 3ds tunnel which adds to the originality and theming which gets extra points.
Vid_w's is not his track, but a collaboration of 3 member's of work.
In all fairness of the rules and fairness to the other members who are working along on their project. I ask hyyyper to disqualify them from this tournament effective immediately.
I await hyyyper's reply.

bla bla..


Im hereby asking you to piss off. Let's quote the first post again if you like to be so strict boy.

Rules:
(DQ when broken)
--Rules section.--

Guidelines:
--Guidelines--


Note the 'DQ when broken' under the Rules section, which makes no DQ when breaking the guidelines. Looking at Oscars post, he says we're violating guidelines. I even don't know WHICH guideline (please clear out Oscar..) but anyway: guideline breaking means no DQ.

Then again. 3ds are indeed mentioned in the guidelines. But why so picky about Alton? He made a screenie (not mentioned in the guidelines, let alone in the rules...) If you really DQ us for something like that this year's contests is getting worse than previous year's.

From the signup topic:
[url]/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=16472[/url]
This year?????????s tournament will consist of 5 Rounds. Every round you will be building a coaster that's inspired by a coaster being build this year. Only 32 people will make it into the second round, and after that, participants will be matched up against each other so that each round drops out half the participants, to leave 4 participants for the final 5th round.

you = 1
you doesn't = 3
And I wont piss off, I own the site. If I piss off, 17,900 people will be left without a website to visit [:)]

I'm fed up with you Oscar for being so full of s-h-i-t.

For the record, i have NOT done any track altering for ANYONE. And NOBODY has done anything to my track either.

I only made a screenshot for Vid_w, which, does not break a single rule.

So kiss my gay ass.

Well 'you' actually can be three, attend a basic English class and you'll know 'you' is plural, too. So strictly, i could have interpretated that as 'you' as pointing to all contestants.
Theres nowhere a RULE saying 3ds using with permission is forbidden. But whatever go ahead. If you DQ for that, every track using hyyyper's guitar should be DQ cause it's not 100% the builder's work (quoting mwm...)

Also basically everyone in two year's ago's competition collaborated on their ride at some point, especially in the later rounds.

The contest in question is this year's contest, not of year's past.

alton_ is gone from the contest for his very nice post.

Mikado, if you are going to go with the basic English class stuff, you might as well enroll in an English class today. I am an American and know well my English. Perhaps, you should attend some basic English class and learn to interpret English context when used in a sentence.

The guitar is part of the template and is to be used in it. That is what the contestants are supplied to work with. It does not give one user an advantage over another since everyone has it. Keyword here is "everyone."

I don't see any reason for them to be banned. He made a screenshot? Was there any support or track altering by any other members? If not, then it's simple, they shouldn't be banned. Who cares about guidelines or a freaking screenshot, that has absolutely nothing to do with the DQ rule. If there was track or support changing, ban away, but if not then wtf is this whole arguement for?

Everyone can go and download, and we encourage everyone, that has not yet submitted, that they use the tunnel! Also, if you want to, you can use the screenshot!
Thank you!

Very mature to ban alton_.

And btw, my tunnel is available for "everyone". It's called freeware and it is shared through rapidshare.

Isnt this slightly harsh? It did not actually say anything about working together in the guidelines so surely you cant disqualify on that basis. It says "you" will be building a track, yes, but it never says you alone? Just "you", thats it.

Anyway, i thought the whole point in the site was to exchange rides, have fun, and meet people with the same interests as you? Why ban 3 of the best left in the competition, and 3 of the most regular users of the site, just because they speak about what they have in common? There was no physical editing of each others track work, only advice, a 3d or so and a screenshot made? Thats been done before in every single year of contests ive been here, which is like 5 years i think!

I guess it goes hand in hand with his mature post. I don't see where I told him to go lick my straight dick in any of the posts I made yet in his first reply he goes right off and tells me to likc his gay ass. That's the kind of maturity I should carry on?

Funny, 7 pages of posts and not a single rapidshare link.

Mikado's status can't be touched because he hasn't even uploaded, and as long as no one helped him on his track, I'd say he's clean.

Mikado ftw!

Funny, not one rule saying every object used in a track must be mentioned in the topic, and you complaining about it.

Holy mother of the lord. I don't open the topic for a week and this is what I see? Hot damn. I don't really know what to say. I mean, up there in that quote it says that they are being banned for violating guidelines, which is not part of the contests rule of DQ banning. It's for violating Rules. I just don't understand that, but there is probably something I'm missing (and yes, I read Alton_'s post, and I'm not only speaking about him because two others were mentioned).
X2 ??? Intimidator 305 ??? Millennium Force ??? Iron Rattler ??? El Toro ??? Fury 325 ??? Maverick ??? Skyrush ??? Twisted Timbers ??? Voyage

Too bad this week is my spring break and I'll be bored. Perhaps I'll make a new coaster (or finish an old one *gasp*).

See I was big on posting things about religion and politics. Ask tcon about that.

Don't you dare bring up some discrimination crap because no one is in the mood for this. Yes the lot of ya'll are gay emos and that's fantastic so we can all hold hands under a urine rainbow of acceptance but now is not the time or place. If you look back at gay marriage threads you'll see I was SUPPORTING it and look at all of the crap I've gotten into little fights about so don't preach to me or I may propose an anti emo marriage bill for crunchberries like you.
