    OLE's writeup
    Kumba seems determined to go all the way in his own contest and has decided to bring his A-game in all his matches. Bring it he did with the highly creative Falls of Time. One of the neatest concepts we've seen on a micro, Kumba shows most of the history of the world on a 15x15 map.... a very tall 15x15 map that is. The big bang explosion is the first thing you'll see right at the top of the falls but life quickly evolves as you move down. You'll go from early lifeforms flopping their way to land to dinos and cavemen to early civilizations such as Egypt and Rome. Further down are pirates and then mines and finally at the bottom are more modern/futuristic buildings. Each little section has at least one ride that goes with it and there's also a large hacked coaster that works its way up and down the falls of time. Once again Kumba shows his hacking skill and unique ability to pull off crazy ideas. Wicksteed actually made a pretty neat little micro as well. En Garde uses a cleverly hacked coaster to show a fencing scene in a courtyard. Two cars start off right in eachother's face but as one breaks off the other takes up the chase all across the map. It's cool to watch once but just wasn't enough to compete against what Kumba made. The votes ended up a 4-0 sweep for Kumba and he moves on to the next round.

    Everyone must be too busy with Levis vs 5Dave to look at this one. Nice job fitting the history of the world on 15x15 Kumba :lol: . Looks interesting, can't wait to look at it a little closer.

    ouch..the overwiew for mine looks incredibly bad with that rock wall...i'd be happy if some of you download it nonetheless. what matters is whats intra muros.
    yeah...it's not surprising that Kumba won.
    great work! wonderful idea(s), very well done. a bit chaotic though :p
    mine was ok, I guess...not my best work, because in the end I lost interest, with a chance to win of about 1%...
    but I did enjoy working on it, and had some decent ideas i think.

    Wicksteed, sorry, but I didn't like it too much. It seemed overly bare, and was kinda hard to see sometimes with the huge walls. However, the architecture was very nice, and I liked the idea, but I liked your first entry better.

    Kumba, your work continues to amaze me. You have brilliant ideas, and execute them perfectly, though I'm beginning to wonder if you can make a park without some sort of ruins ;). Still, this park was perfect, one of my favorites in the contest. Now can I have my park back?

    Thanks for the feedback. It's nice to win, but im kinda kicking myself for using one of my best ideas this early. Thats my plan tho, give it 100% every round because my opponents will... well sooner or later I figured they will :p

    Wicksteed I really liked your entry. I did a more poorly executed self-dueling wild mouse in DC vs. Marvel, so I know they can be tricky. I also liked the pleasant atmosphear and above all I loved the customs sheeps! :D

    Oly mother of goodness, Darren. The farther I get in this thing, the less of a chance I'm gonna stand against the likes of you, WME, Levis, and others.

    I'm thinking this micro map formula is just the thing to give you enough limits stuff to force crazy creativity while keeping the space down, so you have to temper yourself.

    The best concept in this competition so far, without doubt.

    I loved it, it deserved it's win. I'm just glad you're using up all your ideas early on :lol:

    Some really nice stuff there, Kumba. Definitely a great idea and perfect use of the space you have to work with. The concept is really impressive to fit that many different themes onto one little space. Nice work.

    When I downloaded Kumba's entry, it says it's installing object data files. And I've already downloaded several entries which use WME's four pieces of scenery that you're not allowed to build with. Either there's a parkdat problem or the like, or Wicksteed wins by forfeit.

    I think you may not have the PT3 Bonus Bench

    That should fix it. Same thing happened when riven3d tried to open it and he did not have that bench. You only saw two things load right?

    Also Lloyd I have a long list of MM park ideas and imo a few are better then this and the rest are not to far from it :kiss:

    Kumba's entry was incredible. I loved the big bang at the start and the rest of the ides were really nice. It was a deserved winner.

    Wicksteed had such an awesome concept. I loved watching every second of it. Can't wait to see more work from you.
