Everyone must do their best Halloween themed coaster. Any coaster will do, it must be a roller coaster. Duelers are fine. No rules, just keep it Halloween.

Bolded names are entries that have been received.

The Due Date Is:
October 23, 2004

This is going to be intresting. Top-noch idea, Iris.

I'd really like to see someone do this theme justice. Should be interesting!

IF I have time, I guarantee I will astound you.

If I don't... well, I'll hope that whatever magical power that has been making my opponents not finish their parks strikes again.

*shakes hands with Captain Kumba*

Lets roll.

That's good

Well this is definetly going to be rushed. My computer has not been working for the past week or two, and I just got a new computer on Saturday. I won't have RCT running until Thursday (the 7th) at the earliest, and then I didn't find out about this until today, the 3rd because I haven't had access to any internet. Oh well, I'll have to go into serious thinking mode.

Actually, I have a question.

To my understanding, RCT 1 bracket is separate from the RCT 2 brackets, so this round is the finals for Nate and Ablaze, right?

And then the three RCT 2 brackets will send their champs from this round to the next round, which will be a three-way battle for the RCT 2 finals, correct?

Lemme know if this is the case, or if we actually have TWO more rounds to go (excluding this one).

Well if its both ways they'd need to spilt the prize money. And I think I asked iris and he said its one overall champ, and that LL will face RCT2 at some point, im not sure tho.

Corky I must admit I am not really into this theme, but how many times will I get to go heads up with you? I am gona bring my "A" game for this round and try to pull off another "upset"

LL faces RCT2.

How does it work with user voting? I would think there could be a bias towards RCT2. It is very likely that someone who owns RCT2 will vote for the RCT2 player because they can't see the LL entry.

Well since I get to pick the judges, I'll be picking those that have both.

Another idea would be to have your hand-picked judges contribute half of the vote, and the public determins the other half. That way, the public does have a say in the final round (and only do this in the final round). You could weigh percentage of votes against each other or something.

this is goin to be insane

Nah... everyone's gonna forfeit. And my entry will be incomplete.

Wouldn't it be more appropriate for this to be due on the 31st? Since we're down to 8, I think the quality of these entries should be higher and it would help if we had more time. The earlier rounds most of us didn't have school or other stuff that we have now also.

I agree Phatage, but I think iris wanted them to be judged and released by the 31st; to make a sort of 'Halloween Bash' here at NE, but dont listen to me, I'm just guessing.

More time sounds good, but time is needed to judge, maybe make it due the 28th or 29th and that gives a few days to judge and it can be released on Halloween.

They can never judge in two days.

Pretend round 2 never happened.

The time is fine, I think it's plenty.

Shit.. this ain't coming out as I envisioned. Kumba... guess you're gonna win.
