2016 CoasterCrazy No Limits 2 Tournament! RESULTS POSTED

[TTD03]

I'd like to clarify that the due date is March 9th at 11:59 PM EST to the email address Blase posted above.

I have to drop out as I have absolutely no time. NYC last week, Texas next week with my building my career profile this week :/

not to intrude, but what exactly are your plans while in tejas?

My grandfather passed away some days ago and I havn't touch my creation since then yet, I won't think I will be able to make it exactly how I want it to be, but i'm going to try finish it!

Thought I would upload something in terms of progress. So here is my water feature.

Here are two pictures of my progress so far,
I'm at 60% supports, and 40% objects.

Trackwork is fully done. Including a splash!

I am sorry for your loss... I will do my best to help out and allow you an extension of a day if needed.

I'm also having problems with finding enough time for completing my coaster but I will send in a submission! It won't be a good coaster but hopefully it's just enough to make it through the first round.

I am excited to see all of the creations you all make! Remember the deadline is March 9th! its coming fast!

Good luck to everyone!

I'm sorry for your loss as well

^ I have the same feeling, too. Just sad to know someone's loss. Had to comment.

Do the supports need to be based on the designer or the manufacturer?
Also,

I'm sorry for your loss. The passing of loved ones is a terrible thing.

Just a thought before I get too far in my creation, do you have a preference in which style we do the supports? Say we have B&M designed by Vekoma, would it better to support it as a traditional B&M or Vekoma coaster?

B&M if it's a B&M no?

I'll paste my reply to a similar question on NLE:


Depending on which two manufacturers you choose, you must be true to one of their supporting styles. As the supporting judge, I'll be looking for accuracy, quality, and innovation (though for the first round I'll be lenient....if your track is fully supported in a reasonable manner, you'll be fine by me). So no, it doesn't matter if he's using Vekoma supports for a B&M, as long as those are his two manufacturers. If he were making an Intamin/Giovanola and used arrow supports, that would be against the rules as it brings a third manufacturer into the mix. hope this helps clarify things a bit.

Basically I'll be looking for the supporting style of ONE of your manufacturers, doesn't matter which.

One more question. When sending the entry email do you prefer the direct file? Or do you want us to upload it here and send you that link?

Also because everybody else is posting cryptic photos, why not join the fun.

Welp I got a layout done but I'm not proud lol

My coaster is almost ready!

Really not sure I'm going to be able to finish as there's still much to do, but I took a screenshot a few days ago. The idea behind mine is that a park with an aging Arrow hyper asked Intamin to come in and retrack, as well as provide new trains.

Well, I had to scratch my original design because the result wasn't looking good at all, so I'm hoping I can still get something done by the 9th. I've got an idea, I just hope I've got time to build it in the next week.

Unfortunately, it's not going to happen. I'm only about 1/4 done and after today I'm busy every day until the deadline, so I'm out. Hopefully I'll have better luck next time.

^^ That's basically my idea too, except with a mega looper

Final construction update. As of now the layout and supports are done and all I need to do is work on the surrounding area.

But just to make sure does this count as a completion of curve ball #2

Is Coasterkidmwm's contest coaster a togo?

From the looks of it... those tunnels are in a valley area (low point of the ride) therefore you must change them in order for your submission to be judged.

No. Schwarzkopf Intamin LSM.

3 days left and still nearly 1000 feet of track left to support, good thing I have 2 of those days off.

The Coaster Team- sneak a bunny hop into that tunnel, problem solved. Also I see what you're going for and love it. An Intamin X-car mix was one of the other ideas I had, since along with an Arrow I've never actually tried the X-car in a realistic way.

I would but I have perfected my layout and I do not want to ruin it. But thanks for the tip.

Would the ring/tunnel at the top count as a completion of curve ball #2?
