    Mantis- Perfect duels and cool unorthidox layouts but it just seems sloppy. You were fast becoming my favorite LL parkmaker, but like posix, you seem to be slipping into a 'build for me' mode and the public and more importantly the parks suffer. I'm handing my vote to Mort this time, sorry but it happens when the best are resting on their skills.

    Mort- I don't care for the coaster much but the surrounding are absolutely beautiful. Sadly Twisted did not answer the call to take you on so congrats for pulling off a worthy entry for an opponent that didn't show.

    Alec- Sad; pathetic even. I know you have skill way beyond this unforgivable pile of puke. I know you could do much, much better. Even your entry from the last round proved that.

    Mort takes the cake while Mantis and Alec pull off nearly unequaled discrases to their own abilities.

    ride6 = arrogant?

    I kind of assumed that mantis didn't finish...I kind of agree that it was below what I expected, but I attributed that to rushiness. Maybe I'm the arrogant one? Oh well.

    Mort got my vote...the only finished one, and I really liked the layout. Especially the inline twist at the valley of a hill.

    Mort's was good, but it looked like everything else that he makes...

    Wow. Can we say harsh?

    Now that I have seen them I have only on thing to say. Wow. Mantis' and Alec's looked half-assed. Mort's is the only one that actually looked finished. I expected Mantis to kick ass but it barely got through. He had really do better next time or Mort is going to win. I'd have to say this round was worse than the last one. 8@

    Mort by a mile. I loved that coasters layout.

    Accully I'm not arrogant since I never said that I could do better nor did I say that I did better. I just think that all three of them could've done better but Mort was the only one where the margin was small.

    Lets put it this way, after opening Alec's and watching my expectations sag to new lows I expected Mantis's entry to blow it away, but it didn't. If anything Mantis's entry barely edged it out and that was purely to do with the layouts. I think they both could've done much better.

    My vote went for Mort's entry. I've always loved his style and creativity, this in particular. I really like the invert's design and the color scheme was nice, also. The lanscaping was cool and the architecture was awsome. Good job.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Mantis' duelers were awsome.

    Mort's was brilliant.

    Alec's was.....ummmm, i dunno.

    Whatever.

    Mantis, you took the easy road out on every point and turn in that entry. Don't get offended but every duel in that coaster is "against" each other, instead of with. I know against each other duels work great, but it's also nice to try and have "with" duels, or harder duels like the vertical loops against each other where the timing has to be perfect and not mediocre (which in your case i thought they were a couple of times, especially the ending.. And well, the thing wasn't themed.

    Mort, I loved it. It was crisp, a little different, definitely your best yet. Coz i'm always an idiot when d/ling parks i thought this must've been mantis' work. The theming is top notch, the coaster just isn't.

    Alec, maybe it would have been great themed, maybe it wouldn't have. I don't see any of your perception in it either, actually, sorry. Maybe again it's because it's just not themed.. and the ride is nothing special if it isn't themed.

    Obviously Morts entry runs away with the vote this round. Not only is he the only person to actualy finish his ride from this side of the bracket but he does it in style too. A good example of what is required when you enter a contest like this. Good luck against Mantis, although judging from his recent entry you shouldn't need it.

    The duelers were good in Stryker's Base, but that's about all. The ice and rock surfaces clash horribly and the result is a map that is very uninviting to look at. It's plainly obvious you didn't have much time to get this done as it is only a shadow of what you are capable of Mantis. I hope you can give us a proper match up against Mort.

    Alec, I can see that this would probably have been a very good entry if you had finished it and I actualy rate it higher then Mantis'. The adventure ride is very well layed out and you have obviously started to develop the seperate areas (captain americas and red skulls) and it just seems more effort probably went into this then Mantis'. I also liked the statue of Red Skull.

    It's a shame you couldn't get anything in Twisted. I'll forgive you for producing such a cool flyer in Pixel Juice last round.

    Captain America vs. Red Skull - Pretty nice concept I guess, and the parts that were finished was somewhat nice, like the city and the Red Skull sculpture, but it was really unfinished:/ Still good that you entered something, instead of forfeiting.

    Stryker's Base - Nice duelers, though I suppose they weren't finished, like the rest of the entry. Still, I can imagine it looking really cool if it would be finished. THings like the barbed wire and the flowing adamantium was nice details.

    Sixgun - Most complete entry, but still not very interesting IMO, and the landscaping wasn't very good. Nothing was really wrong with it though, and the coaster was pretty good, so I'm voting for it.
