Hello.

Sorry if you people feel so hard about my judging...

I gave this park a 9 because I loved it. Plain and simple. I thought it was so over the top and bulky, yet absolutely amazing in detail at the same time.

I only wish the other judged liked it as much as I did.

This one was really impressive. The colors got old real fast (color schemes should never be taken to this extreme as far as I'm concerned) and the architecture was a little on the blocky side but as I looked around the park I found a bunch of great ideas and theming details. The building with the pipeworks inside of it comes to mind. And the coaster spiral inside the glass tower. It was just a lot of fun. The main things that could be improved - - mix in some trees and blend some neutral colors (white, black, grey, tan) with all of that turquise and yellow. Dynamic color is good until it starts to hurt your eyes. Anyway, congrats. This was a very nice park.

I thought it was quite nice. Yes it could've benifited from some slight veriation in the color scheme from one part to another and the flowers were taken too far and there is no dought that some "regular" vegitation would've helped. None-the-less i'd judge it a 7/10. Pyro is just mean.

Nice coasters too may i add I really liked the Schwarzkopf and the airobatic. The water coaster was to dency-packed for me to bother to figure out the way it was layed-out.

Hehe, I wrote the little blurb for this one...I really liked it! The elephant ride was really scary, and the ring of fire was cool. Really cool park, Hevydevy. Looking forward to some more solo work from you!

A bit on the empty side, but very creative.

The hacking was great, I thought the start of the Ringmaster was very cool, but most of the park was boring and quiet.

you=crazy!

Would you have preferred it if he'd treed it all to oblivion?

Ah well, can't please everyone.

Come on people - even if you couldn't be bothered to enter (haw-haw) you should at least comment on the people who did.

Well, I would post a review but I don't have LL.

It looks amazing from the overview... I think I'm gonna have to go re-buy it.

I mean, sure, it is a clever idea.

But, you can only impress me so much with a shuttle loop and a an inverted boomerang coaster. He put individual touches on each, but I mean, how much skill does a boomerang coaster take. Or a shuttle loop. Coasterwise, the park was incredibly weak...I liked Mantis', Freak's, and Aero's better. The darkness factor was cool, the tents were cool, the custom rides were cool. The coasters sucked.

Woof. I smell genius.

This park had probably the best dark atmosphere in a park um....ever. Totally classic and a great concept.

The coasters need work. I actually liked the Ringmaster, but the Ring of Fire and Dying Trapeze need work. You tried to make them interesting, but it didn't work. Human Cannonball was actually a quite pleasing LIM bowl though.

You have wonderful ideas throughout the park..the inspiration from Ginneiagfdablahablah is obvious. The track pieces archy is really cool, you kinda have a knack for putting that together, thats obvious. The Big Top is awesome, very cool idea there. The theming is very dark, I like how you tried the atmosphere out, and it just clicked for you. I'm jealous.

HOWEVER, good parks must have downfalls. Coasters are a definite downfall here. The Fun House is very ugly. So is the Flaming Top Circus Tent or whatever by the entrance. Your regular archy is good in some places, yet not so good in others.

This is a great park, probably the best so far, besides AÃ©rÃ´ and MiCool. Congrats, Hevydevy.

Holy shit. That was awesome. 8.5/10
The structures were simply brilliant. Easily some of the best I've seen. The theming too, is top notch. My only suggestions are to work a bit on your coasters and do some landscaping. The park was a bit flat. I wouldn't be surprised to see you as a parkmaker one day.

Well, 10. I figgured I wouldn't win. I was surprised with the other judges scores and I'm REALLY happy they understood the park. I think the park is simple in places, but it has to be understood, as do some things i do, like the city of god.

Pryo...i saw that comming, I always thought you never really like my stuff, oh well...my bad luck that you're a judge.

Thanx for holding the contest iris and raven, it was great! Too bad i couldn't cash in, but there's always next time...

Pyro's larger voting scale gave him much, much more power than any judge in the contest, which really showed up here.

This is getting ridiculous. There is no way this park deserved a 2 from Pyro. This was a great park, and the earthy feel was really interesting. I want to know what Pyro's problem with this was.

@Foozy - True, but I think if you look at the standings at the end without looking at the individual judge's scores, most of the results would be agreeable, so it doesn't really matter.

I loved both. Each was brilliant. Circus of the Lost Souls was one of the best mini-parks ever. I've never seen anything like that. I've never been too good at coasters anyway so I tend to not notice them much. The theming was brilliant. @ anyone who thinks it's too bare - much of it was packed into small sections. I liked that the theming wasn't treed around, because I could see the stuff that way.

Earth looked lazy and at times, ugly at first. From the bird's eye view. But then there was the tree. At first I thought it was an actual ride, how cool would that be. And I can't describe it - but if there was ever atmosphere in a park - this was it. I was there. The mushroom house was brilliant. I could have done without the double carousel, but that was cool as well.

That tree was amazing Nate. I loved it. To bad Pyro is so damn harsh.

Nice job though, that tree is insane.

I really loved this park Nate. I wanted to rate it higher but eventually I settled on 8 because it was a little sparse compared to some of the other entries. You were going for something much different than the other parks though and while that made it a bit hard to compare, I didn't find this park lacking in any way. The tree was gorgeous. I don't know how long it took you to make it but it's probably the most impressive coaster sculpture I've ever seen. The wave swinger was wonderfully well done and the theming was incredibly natural much like DFK. Anyway, wonderful work Nate, I'm sorry you didn't place higher. In a lesser contest this would have easily taken first place but there's still a lot of impressive work to come.
