Knex Contest!

[phazan]

Rules

 

-The coaster must make a complete circut (On it's own! No helping! )

-The coaster can use whatever you want. This means you can make custom scenery, tunnels, lights, extra cars on your train, ANYTHING!

-If you have a current coaster you already built, you may use that as your entry.

-You may use any of the Knex sets. (Rippin' Rocket, Screamin' Serpant...)

-You may drop in or out at any time.

-Shuttle coasters are allowed

-You may use any track/car modifications. This will help the creativity aspect of the contest.

 

 

Those are the rules so far. Please ask any questions if you have any.

 

Info

 

-All entries must be in by Friday, March 2nd (This date may change)

-You must email your picture(s) of your coaster to phazan@coaster101.com

You may send up to three pictures of your coaster. (If for some reason you can't get your whole coaster in three pictures, PM me about it, I will make an exception) These will be the pictures people will use to vote on your coaster, so make sure they are good!

-When all the pictures are sent in, I will make a poll, and people can vote for their favorite coaster.

 

Remember, if you have any questions, feel free to ask me!

 

Also, if you would like, you may post small photo trs of your coaster process in this thread.

 

Happy building, and good luck!

 

Please PM me or post in this thread saying you want to join so I can enter you in.

Well, I just finished Gravity about a week or two ago, I might want to enter that. However, it uses WD40 on the wheels and Pledge Anti Dust Spray on the rails as Lubricants. Can I still enter with those Lubricants applied?

[phazan]

^Yeah, I don't see why not. Part of the challenge to this contest will be to make a cool coaster, while having to keep enough speed to make it through the track. So yes, you may use lubricants, thanks for asking.

I may join depends how much time I have.

I tried making my own coaster a few weeks ago, but seeing how frustrating it is to figure out a smooth layout is, I'm going to have to decline. Cool idea, though - I'm excited to see the entries!

[chaos]

I'll most likely enter. I was planning another coaster anyway, so count me in.

[the sound]

I might enter, as soon as i finish Corckscrew Canyon.

[phazan]

Cool, looks like it's going to work. I'm thinking of all the rules and stuff, so I will probably have everything ready by tomorrow evening.

[sydney]

I will definitely enter Project X.

[phazan]

You now may join the contest! Good luck!

I was just going to post a thread about my new knex coaster. I will join, however I may not make the deadline. I shouldn't worry about that right now, though.

[phazan]

^If too many people are having a problem meeting the deadline, I will change it to a later date. I just put the deadline there to make a time where everyone will vote for their favorite coaster. It's there more for "goal" for everyone to get their coasters done by.
