2017 No Limits 2 Tournament - Final Results!

[Paradox]

Thank you everyone for bearing with the judges for the long delay. Finally, we have the results for round 2. Like last round, if your name is in bold you are moving on to round 2. Please keep in mind the judging was much stricter for this round and only 5 could go through due to the amount of drop outs. For more information about your scores please do not hesitate to contact the judges (Blase Rhine, Metazoanhaddock, Paradox). Once again thanks to everyone who participated and round 3 will begin soon!



Congratulations to jpaufsc for winning this round!



In other news BlaseRhine will be stepping down from the judging team due to some personal issues.

Gratz top 5!

So a few quick announcements:

1: The parameters for the finals will be released sometime on Sunday, so be on the lookout for those.

2: Blase has stepped down from his role running the competition as well as his judging role, I will be running the finals, and Turbo will be replacing Blase as the trackwork judge.

If you have any questions please feel free to post them below or PM me.

Hope Blase is ok!

Darn Irma, she destroyed his network stuff as well! Hopefully that he'll get back on the (right) track!

Welcome to the final round of the 2017 NLT, Congratulations to all our finalists for making it this far!

For this final round, you will be creating two coasters to duel. However, there's a twist. One coaster must be a launched coaster by Intamin (any Intamin track style) while the other must be an Arrow (also any Arrow track style).

While this may seem somewhat straightforward, there are some parameters to keep in mind when building your rides:

Arrow:
Max height must be between 200-300 feet
Must have 5-10 inversions

Intamin:
Must have one element 200-220 feet tall, while the rest of the ride must be below 150 feet
Must have 3-5 inversions

Interaction:
Must have some form of interaction (train-train, train-track) at least 6 times between the two coasters

The rest is up to you, there will be NO curveballs for this challenge

Please note that you will be judged on the following:

-How realistic your design is for each manufacturer.
-Are your g forces in check?
-Support work
-Track work
-Overall Impression (does your coaster look appropriate for the specified area?, Colors, etc. This is the extra credit points)
-Operations
-It must pass all clearance and block tests.

*You are allowed to use custom skyboxes and 3d scenery if you feel fit.

Your judges are

-Turbo, Trackwork judge
-Paradox, originality/rules judge
-Daniel (Metazoanhaddock), Support judge

The submissions must be sent to contests@nolimitscoaster2.com by Friday October 20th at midnight EST. If you do not send in your track by the appropriate time, you will be automatically disqualified and will no longer be in the running for the grand prize. When submitting please follow this submission guideline.

Can you release the round 2 submissions?

[Metazoanhaddock]

That is up to the creators of those entries, so no, I can't.

Hey guys! Due to complaints about the challenge we have decided to change it up a little. You can now make your dueling coasters any track styles but they must follow these rules:

- Must have at least 6 interactions.
- One ride must be launched.
- One ride must have 5-10 inversions and the other 3-5 inversions.
- Minimum track length for each coaster is 3,200 ft (975.36 meters).

You can choose to follow either set of guidelines, but please specify what you are following in your submission. The contest will be extended by 1 week for those who wish to start over completely. Submissions will now be due on Friday October 27th!

Thanks!

It is up to the creators of the rides to upload them

Root and Octave will probably have a bit more scenery added before I put them out for download - however, I am working to try and get my Round 2 and 1 entries available ASAP (The Machine and Florence will probably be the first package I release). Within the coming days I should have POVs for both Florence and The Machine out.

As for Root and Octave, they were heavily inspired by Dream Theater???s Octavarium - Root obviously after ???The Root of All Evil??? and Octave after the titular track. Well done to all who realised
