Group 2: A tie! Both coasters got exactly the same final rating.

Wow. I knew our tracks would be close.. but damn. I figured our tracks would come out really close considering our standings in the bracket, but wow.. a tie..

Will there be like a little tie breaker or are you going to have to just decide between the two?

I'm not up for arguing, but every single person I have talked to about it said I deserved some better than a 4.84.

Nuff said, congrats to all the winners in advance, and I can't wait to see your rides for next round.

Why obsess over the number so much? Was I super hard on these rides, even harder than I am on normal exchange stuff. These rides (in theory) represent what the best and brightest can do. I wanted to allow enough range in the scores to clearly differentiate the rides. I don't see why you're so up in arms over that. What's the point in ranking the rides if the scores are all bunched up together?

Think scores will be up in the next few hours cjd?

Why not try using just one account? lol

I think that can be arranged.... [devilish]

Whoops...though I had both PCs logged in as Tyler..

[hyyyper]

tyler is a shizo

Schizo. Shizo? lol Sound that out.

I think he meant schizophrenic.

Hehe a tie [:D] Are you going to upload you entry Iron Man? I really want to ride it..
Good luck with further rating, CJD!

Someone got CJD's number so we can wake him up to post these?

hehe.

Hehe yeh, I'm becoming pretty curious now [:D]

I didn't like my track. It isn't going onto the exchange unless I fix it up. I only had four build days, so it's not up to my standards. I would usually take months on a coaster like this one. If you must see it, I'll just e-mail it to you. Drop me your address and I'll send it over.

Group 8: 2 of the highest rated tracks in the whole round. It's too bad they had to be in the same group...

This is going to be scary close.

I do hope he realized my original element was my zero-spin and not the first element, lol.

As long as "he" can see one then it doesn't matter.

You just better hope that 0.5 off doesn't hurt you too badly buddy[;)]

For what, that lateral g spike? ehh 1.7 lats isn't much more than 1.5, though it consistently hits 1.6-1.7 each ride...

Yeah. Plus it's a spike because of trying to smooth that heartline roll. I hope he has some tolerance.

Is there one there too? I think jakizle was referring to another point along the track, on a simple banking transition.

No. [:)]

Geez, has cjd fallen into a coma or something?

Close, it's more of a state of being unable to get up every morning and do some work...we all suffer from it

Sorry that the ratings aren't finished yet. I thought that I was going to stay up until 2 am and finish them, but then my caffiene buzz ran out at about 11 and I fell asleep on the couch. I've been doing house work all day today, and I have a club meeting tonight, so I'm not counting on having them up tonight either, unless I put in one heck of a rating session. I did manage to rate another group and a half before I zonked out last night, so there are only 2.5 groups left. If I can sit still for about 3-4 hours, I should have them done.
