the ghost Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 There's a large difference between criticism and blatant yawn-worthy elitism. I gave you advice, so did xpress. You are right, I am not the best builder in the world, but I have ridden plenty of coasters from Jarmor, Dr.Gumbo, and Dbru, and Xpress. Xpress won the wooden coaster building championship of the site by the way. Anyway, I have ridden many awesome coasters, so I know what to look for, even though I may not be able to build it. If you wanna fight with pretty much everyone who hasn't praised your layout, then be my guest. The This is probably the most controversial NL thread ever, lol Ghost
DBru Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Cool? I'll make sure to tread more lightly in your sacred holy land of pristine recreations next track I make. There are other ways to argue criticism without acting like a complete a$$. (Great way to introduce yourself to the forums, here. )
dr.gumbo Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Nice to meet you, I'm Tiger. 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.
Tiger of PTS Posted June 16, 2009 Author Posted June 16, 2009 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). That's pretty much the majority of what I was going for. I mean, other than making a badass video with a sweet song, and I ended up making TWO of those. So I'm gonna have to go ahead label this track a 150% success.
mcjaco Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 Hey, guess what? THIS IS LOCKED. Xpress, welcome to the bantron. Derogatory terms are not allowed. You've earned a time out. Tiger, your attitude sucks. You get a time out too. The rest of you, this looks like a friggin' flame war. CUT IT OUT.
