Chris Benvenuto Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 Imagine New York's Times Square around 11PM on New Year's Eve. Confetti, champagne and everyone is in cheer as one tough and difficult year is finally finished and we're all ready to ring in the coming year 2009 and welcoming it with a fresh slate. My challenge is this: How would you see the celebrations in Times Square in the form of a mini park? How could you capture the spirit of the famed New York New Year festivities? My specs are as followed: I want a 50x50 park that sums up the feeling of Times Square on New Year's Eve. Put anything you want it, and at least one coaster into the 50x50 space. The contest deadline is December 24th. Winners will be annouced on Junuary 4th. I wish everyone the best of luck! I want a good clean fight from all of you, and play fair! Gentlemen, Start your RCT2's! NOTE: NO WW AND TT Scenary. if you use custom scenary, make sure the import scenary box is checked off when you finish the park. Or otherwise the judging process will be delayed until said park is accessible. NOTE 2: I pushed the deadline to the 20th. NOTE 3: FINAL EXTENSION, ALL PARKS DUE ON THE 24th! NO LATER! Contest Park Makers: 1. the ghost (out of contest) sfkk339 (replacement on the 15th) 2. Dbru 3. thelegendarymatthew 4. Pufferfish 5. reality15 6. Cyber. Fiber. 7. B-RadG 8. SFE 9. cm3k
mcjaco Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 ^ You have more PC issues in a week than most of us have in a lifetime.
DBru Posted November 18, 2008 Posted November 18, 2008 ^LOL, yeah it's sad, isn't it... But I'm convinced once I get my cooling fan fixed, and I can save cookies again, that I won't have anymore problems for AT LEAST two weeks!
Chris Benvenuto Posted November 19, 2008 Author Posted November 19, 2008 Just a reminder, spots are still open for anyone who wants to partake in the contest! 6 spots ARE still left! Join now while you still can! Best of luck to all once again!
Thelegendarymatthew Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 I'll join, but is there going to be a template or something?
Pufferfish Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 Know what, I'll give it a try. Hopefully I won't loose interest in this one. This is going to be fun .
Chris Benvenuto Posted November 20, 2008 Author Posted November 20, 2008 It's a free design your own template contest, but I'm thinking of adding prizes to the mix. So is making your own template worth a prize? We'll find out!! If prizes do come to light, prizes winners will be contacted by PM for contact details and Prizes will be decided 2 weeks before the deadline.
Reality15 Posted November 22, 2008 Posted November 22, 2008 I'll give it a try. Sounds like an enormous amount of fun.
Chris Benvenuto Posted November 29, 2008 Author Posted November 29, 2008 Bumping. Just a recent reminder, that there are still 2 spots open. The contest can go with the amount people involved now. But don't miss your chance in winning and getting a gift card to a chosen resturant for the New year! Join now while you still can, 2 spots left!
Chris Benvenuto Posted December 1, 2008 Author Posted December 1, 2008 Ok, you can begin building tomorrow, or if you are already you're ok. The official start date is tomorrow, good luck!
Chris Benvenuto Posted December 11, 2008 Author Posted December 11, 2008 Reminder: the deadline is approaching, everyone has 10 days to get in as much work as they can! The reason for the deadline back pushed back is due to I can review parks, and have them judged in a more lax manner. I have break for 2 weeks so I should be able to open everything by the 27th latest. Keep it up everyone, you only have 10 days left!!
Pufferfish Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 I just noticed the note about no WW or TT scenery. Will we get ejected from the competition for using it? I made my template before seeing the note.
Six Flags Enthuseast Posted December 11, 2008 Posted December 11, 2008 ^^Yes, me too. Can I use only custom path scenery and some water features? I can survive without CS, but if I can, I'd like to use those.
Chris Benvenuto Posted December 11, 2008 Author Posted December 11, 2008 SFE and Puffer, if you made it before the note you're safe to continue with what you're doing! the ghost, I'm sorry to hear that but maybe next time? I have another contest planned for Easter so stay tuned! remember, use things you'd think would work with the theme. If you don't think it would work, don't use it! and if you think it does? do it! go all out!
Six Flags Enthuseast Posted December 12, 2008 Posted December 12, 2008 Would a fountain in the middle of a city-ish atmosphere work? If so, full throttle away!
Cyber.Fiber Posted December 12, 2008 Posted December 12, 2008 Can we use the new york scenery pack that came with wacky worlds? I am new to this sort of thing and was just wandering if we could use it? Thanks!
Chris Benvenuto Posted December 14, 2008 Author Posted December 14, 2008 Yes, you can CF, yes you can!
Chris Benvenuto Posted December 15, 2008 Author Posted December 15, 2008 Sfkk, I'd really advise you to wait until my easter contest. Unless you have something that you can build in 5 days, otherwise I'd really think waiting for the next contest would be better. But if you want to, it's not my decision. I'm leaving it up to you, to do or decide about whatever you want.
