^ The pinks the best part. lol

I completely agree with Xpress, for a shuttle this things awesome. It would be a great ride if it were built in real life.

Shame the same can't be said on our behalf. What I liked -Proportionally, the ride's pretty accurate. -The custom station + bridge was nice. -The trackwork was quite accurate 'as-a-whole' (please consider that I haven't been on the ride nor do I know much about it. So if others who have ridden it say its inaccurate, listen to them, not me). What could be improved -The ride failed the tunnel test, so next time try and sort that out. -Quite a bit of the supports needed a little work done to them because at the moment, they're pretty messy (random supports sticking out ect.) -The trackwork was quite pumpy, with a little work this can be fixed easily. -Some of the track could have been shaped better / more accuratly. -The forces need sorting out because at the moment, the ride would fall apart in a matter of weeks if it were built as you have shown us. -The pacing isn't that accurate. My Verdict A good effort, but the ride got quite slack at times, especially with the trackwork and supports. Here's some advice: Rather than gunning people down, listen to what they have to say. It will help you get better at NL and people will respect you more on the forums.

Congratulations to everyone!

Woo, someone from the Tyne and Wear area!!! Nice report, can't wait for this ride to open.

So has anyone got any updates/teasers?

^ Didn't I leave one on the ride's own topic?

I quite like the support work, but I think it could do with a little more work.

I know you will. With every ride you make you'll learn something new, and over time it's natural for you to get better and better. Even the most best designers didn't hurl out gold when they were starting off. I hope you didn't find me too harsh there, but I can't be lenient for one ride and picky on another.

If making the text small was supposed to be awkward, you just failed. lol

^ No, you can do it when your commenting. Just go to the reply page and look for it near the bottom.

^ Yeah, he came crawling back to us n00bs. Seriously though, this ride was awesome when it was over at CS and its awesome now. The accuracy of this thing is staggering.

Why do you people have to be so awkward. lol Yeah, it passes with the Schwarzkopf tunnel (barely). I'll change my rate for you then.

^ On the simulator, press 'H' and you should find out there.

I'm pretty sure you can't remember my rate over at Coastersims before it closed down so I'll try and break it down for you here. What I liked -Superb Trackwork. -Epic .3ds work. -Fantastic layout. -Gorgeous environment. -Great little details such as the queue time signs and stuff. -Very good pacing. -Awesome and original supports. -Generally original piece of work. What could be improved -I felt it was a bit too long to be considered realistic but to be honest, I don't really care. -Not the best trackwork ever, but its pretty darn good. My Verdict Scenery aside, this is a very well made and very fun ride. With scenery, its a near masterpiece. 10/10

Okay, you can build below the Jack Rabbit box and the lower purple border is the one the rules refer to (the vertical ones are irrelivant).

^^ Shush, your driving me mad. EDIT: Rated all rides released so far: --- Xpress's Beach blaster What I liked -Relentless pacing throughout. -Great airtime hills. -Astonishing job on the supports. -The twister approach of the layout. -The pre-lift was fun. -The overall track shaping of the ride was very fun and original. -Generally smooth -Great laterals. What could be improved -Erm…some scenery would be nice. -A few small jerks here and there. -Par that funky element after the MCBR, the ending was nowhere near as good as the first half. My Verdict Taking a different approach to competitors certainly made you ride stand out from the crowd, and stand out it did. 9/10 --- 4rturo's Wolf What I liked -Great airtime, especially towards the end. -Nice mix of helix's and airtime hills. -One of the smoother entries. -Nice track shaping throughout. What could be improved -The helix's here a bit pumpy. -I didn't like how the ride needed a lift to get to the station, it was just unnecessary. -The layout is nothing more than average. -Not the most inventive entry we've had. My verdict While its not the strongest contender we've had, it's far from being bad ride. 6/10 --- Exceller's Wild What I liked -Very fun and unique first drop out of the station. -I liked the unconventional set-up of the layout. -Pacing is maintained well until the final third. -Fun at times. -Good terrain work. What could be improved -The pacing just died in the final stretch, mainly due to the slightly over-sized bunny hops. -Minor but frequent pumps throughout. -First drop aside, the ride was a bit dull and lacked any 'wow' factor. My Verdict A slightly forgettable ride is made up by its spots of genius. 6/10 --- Thelegendarymatthew's Entry What I liked -The layout had a logical flow. -The first bit was quite fun. What could be improved -The pacing was horrendous towards the end, made worse by the fact that the hills were as flat as a pancake. -Failed the E-stop test badly in a lot of ways, most prominently it overshot the MCBR. -The entry to the lift hill wasn't straight. -The elements on the latter two thirds of the ride were far too big, ruining the already dodgy pacing. -The forces, though they stayed within the guidelines, were far to strong for a woodie (mostly caused by pumping and undersized valleys). -Very pumpy trackwork throughout, most of which could have been fixed with the inbuilt smoother. -Dull, unoriginal layout. -The lead in to the lift hill wasn't straight. -The hills were all wonky when they should have been straight. -Perhaps the most boring ending to a coaster ever (stupidly over-long bunny hops into a long straight sections towards the brakes). Sorry to be harsh, but I have to rate it as I would rate any other ride. It is a contest after all. My Verdict Clearly your not the most experienced designer in this contest, which is fine (we all had to start somewhere) but I would have liked to have seen a bit more of that inexpereinced lunacy rather than long, flat hills taken at 20mph. 2/10

^ Nice to see your making rides again, this one looks awesome.

I'll try and find out about that so hang in there.

^ Where's your entry full stop. I can't find it anywhere on this thread.

^ Don't worry, he just did. I'll update the rules now.

I've got one more track to rate. I'll try and get it done as early as possible tomorrow. Sorry if I'm causing any delays or anything like that.

EDIT: SEE BELOW

Looks absolutely fantastic, bonus points for theming it to Wario. lol

^ No according to the rules it isn't. Now shut up, I'm enjoying this.
