Excuse me, but do we call coasters shorter than 100 feet a kilo coaster? Nope. The strata coaster was the name popularized, and I was only doing what you said, which was to go to the next in line because strata coaster is the popular name. I apologize for having my own opinion.

Edit: it double posted.[:(!]

XD I know things glitch sometimes.

Wow I really need to learn how to shape my coasters...

^Yea... Its not easy... Even for me it takes a LONG time to ( at least almost) get it right.

I was actually joking more at CH's extreme font size, but ok.

^ Just wanted emphasis you know...

was emphasis really necessary? i mean were all geeks here...

^not really...

Are the coasters rated by site rating or by contest ratings? Mine is already low rated but we havent seen the other entries yet... i shouldnt have uploaded mine so early!!!

I'm guessing contest rated but i could be wrong

If you can't get over it I suggest trying out Newton, it makes everything much easier and smoother (if you know how to work it).

Entries will be rated and ranked by the contestants and the highest average wins, just like in Party Like it's 1989.

newton is difficult for tall coasters though... and the coasters here are all strata-peta coasters...

Not unless you know how to work Newton, if anything I think compact smaller coasters are if anything harder because you have to navigate through such tight spaces.

You do know you guys still have plenty of time to redo your heights etc. In the rules I said 300-399 feet, if yours is taller I suggest re-doing it or you will be disqualified.

Are there resubmissions?

Richie, I looked at the height of yours. You're right around 360'. You don't need to worry about your heights at all.

If you have it done by the deadline sure.

With finals and only a month left I dont have time for this contest im dropping out

*sigh* Everybodys dropping out... and a month ago we were having a fine conversation on how our coasters would win and everything...

*Mini bump*

How are you're entries coming? You only have about a month until the contest is over!

Okay, a little slow, but it's moving right along.

I think the timeline for this was way too big. Maybe something a around 1 month's time would have been a good challenge.
