Contests / The Next Contest

I think the scenario idea would be fun, but it seems like a smaller scale contest than most people are expecting. But I think I'd do it, if it wasn't too time intensive. I'd say about 10 years in game would be good.

I know on the incredibly old school contests (circa 2000-2001 @ the Station), the scenario competitions were always based on who completed the scenario, and then those were judged to see who had the best.

Wouldnt it be impossible to prove that people werent cheating?For example if it was a time based conest i.e 3/4 rct years then i could build what i wanted and move time back

I realized this... I didn't figured I'd mention it. I'd probably build my coasters in the coaster builder and import them to save time so, I suppose, fair enough. I don't know...

Im on the H2H bandwagon, but if not that I really want to see a team contest, or at least something were you work with others after the last two contests were solo.

I really want h2h5 more than any other contest.

Ride6

^I remember a couple years ago one of my friends was saying he could edit a save game file to edit key functions, such as disallowing the alt-tab function to prevent trainer use. Don't know what happened to that guy...but I guess its possible, if he wasn't bullshitting me.

But still I would prefer a H2H5, always wanted to work with a team again since SS2 at RCPro was a lot of fun, even though it had its share of problems. Wish I could be a team captain too...need some leadership experience to put on college apps. Virtual architecture creation team leader would sound pretty good on an application.

You do realize this is a game where you create roller coasters, rides, shops, etc., not just architecture...

But I'm with the rest of the group. As cool as some of these concepts seem, h2h5 is the way to go.

God, any contest is fine with me...

The only one that happened since I joined has been PT3, I think, and I was too late for prelims. I would love to be part of a contest here, and I think H2H would be really fun, for me, at least.

Me wants H2H5.

yeah Cam, all the colleges will be looking for a team leader for a video game...

i personally don't care what contest is next, i'd like any of them.

I think someone said weekly micros as an idea, but I cant find the quote at the moment. This actually seems like a pretty good idea, maybe not weekly though. Since the problem with MM was people lost interest, as did I to a point building 5 of them. But if there was a weekly/monthly one, maybe each with a specific theme, there would be a good amount of new parks that are relatively quick to make and don't require long term dedication. But I still hope for a major contest such as H2H5.

And Gwazi, my comment was 90% bad joke and 10% srs bsns. I went to Berkeley and they gave an admissions speech and the woman talking actually said someone put video game team leader as a valid leadership qualification. But Im still not about to put that on a college app, as it looks like an unproductive use of time no matter what it is.

Since I've never been involved in any contests here to date...

I'm just going to say that I'm game for ANYTHING.

And, that if it involves being on a team....

Team 'leaders' would be foolish to not consider me as a
viable contributor.

True...I rarely post here but, some people know what I'm
capable of.

Just throwing my name out to anyone interested.

as was mine

If you're looking to get any kind of quality work, this multi round type of contest isn't your answer.

I find this reply funny now.
edit: So is this reply, crap! I though MA said 'a multi round type of contest' instead of 'this multi round type of contest'... But actually I was referring to some other replies too.

As for the next contest: I'd say, no contests till 2010. Then Micro Madness 2, a few months rest, and then a big contest again like Pro Tour IV or H2H6.

Micro Madness was great fun last time, and it's a great opportunity for inactive parkmakers to once again show their qualities!

Suprise suprise, the day the contest ends, this topic is bumped.

A nice refreshing break from contests would be nice, although Micro Madness II towards the end of the year would be lovely.

I wanna FIESTA!

"MFG"

OMG YES.

We haven't had one for sooooooooooooooooooooo long <3 <3 <3

Yeah, Fiesta sounds nice!
Then a break, so people can finish up some solo's *coughepwscough*, then the thing posix & co are cooking up and then PT4/H2H6 setting up/High Rollers/Micro Madness..

Maybe a PT4 with duo parks, or group parks (5 parkmakers or something) would be neat!!
