the ghost Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 I'll give it a try, I doubt I'll win, but I've never built an invert before.

Vekoma Fan Boy Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 I'll give it a shot. Also, as a judge, shouldn't you NOT participate in the competition?
thrillrideseeker Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Also, as a judge, shouldn't you NOT participate in the competition? Thats what I was thinking.~Matthew
ArrowHater Posted December 31, 2008 Author Posted December 31, 2008 i DONT have to be judged. I just want to do it for fun
ArrowHater Posted January 1, 2009 Author Posted January 1, 2009 Here is an example. It isnt very smooth. but you will get the idea! Its called [The Republic] "inspired by my rock & republic jeans" The Republic.nltrack
Vekoma Fan Boy Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 Just saying, don't forget to add me to the list. (You replied to my post earlier and never added me.)
jamesissoocool Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 hell im in.And are we allowed to move trees because you did on yours.
ArrowHater Posted January 1, 2009 Author Posted January 1, 2009 ^ Your in! And yes your allow to move them. But just slightly [about ten feet] Haha. Thats all I did. You cant just move them all in one area, that defeats the purpose :]. Try to make this an environmentally friendly coaster.
ArrowHater Posted January 3, 2009 Author Posted January 3, 2009 ok your in. NOTE: remember everyone post teaser shots for people. One add on - After the contestants are judged the top 5 will be added onto a poll to be voted for the best coaster overall by members of TPR
thrillseaker92 Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Here you go. Just a small amount of the tangled mess.
dr.gumbo Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 I think I'll join as a latecomer. EDIT: On second thoughts, I'll think I'll pass. I could help with the judging if you want.
