If it is an unofficial contest, it could be in the coaster sim fourm.

If it is an official contest, it has to be in the contest fourm.

It is all in the contest rules.

Or, you can host an UN-official contest by posting it in the appropriate coaster simulation's forum. However, an unofficial contest still needs to be interesting and fun to get people to want to join. Unless you have a good idea along with a template and rules, you will most likely be flamed. Flaming is bad. Just remember... think before you post.

Oh. Ok, sorry for accusing you, I thought all contests, unofficial or not, had to go to the Contest topic.

Over them at any height (well, under 350 as said in the rules)

So you're saying you can build a 350 ft. woodie with 5.5 positives?

Changed the rules. Now there are heights and gs that are different for woodies and steelies.

You may have won an award for the dumbest contest ever, I'm sorry man.

1. There is another contest going on that is so much more attractive.
2. No one builds crazy, unrealistic, huge coasters anymore.
3. Respect for...what?

Bit harsh, at least he set limits and such, better than some efforts I've seen to be honest.

And isn't an idea of a competition to try and attract users to a different styles of coasters that aren't around much? (A decent Vek flyer competition would go down a treat in my book)

I'd enter, but 150 feet is too high for me to build at, can you make it without a height limit? Or make 60 the minimum?

^ How come you cannot build it over 150?

I'll get rid of the minimum height restriction if you cannot.

^Don't get rid of the height minimum for just one person. There shouldn't be any reason other than he doesn't like to build over 150 feet.
