April 2011 NoLimits Challenge Voting!

Please let me apologize for the lateness of the voting thread - the past week has been unexpectedly difficult on my time schedule. But, now I'm up at full speed again!

All right, gamers! Now that the NoLimits challenge submission period has ended, it's time to pick your favorites!

You are able to choose three tracks as your favorites.

The voting will last for seven days after this post is created. At the end of the seven days, the track with the most votes will be declared the reader's choice winner.

When the poll closes, everyone will know who everyone picked. That also means that if you make the grave mistake of voting for yourself, everyone else will know how much of a jerk you are. You'll get disqualified, too.

And now, without further adieu,

NOT IN VOTING: Phalenopsys by matteocrepaldi - the track did not meet the criteria of having a single drop of 135 feet or more. The total height change was more than 135 feet, but there was no continuous drop of 135 feet or more.

Good luck everyone!

Haven't voted yet? You still have time! I haven't been promoting this as much as I should be!

I just wanted to post the criteria for the contest again, that way those of us that are voting have an idea of what the contestants were supposed to do:

NoLimits - My Favorite Ride is Vortex!

 

What happens when your manager's favorite coaster is an Arrow?

 

 

History:

Having successfully mooched off of members of a theme park enthusiast website to make his Grand Gardens popular, the manager has hatched a new plan. He recently took a "research" trip to Kings Island in Ohio and came out of the park with a favorite roller coaster -

 

Vortex.

 

Now, he has, once again, bought a large expanse of land for a relatively inexpensive price. The problem is this - none of the land is even close to being flat. He wants a roller coaster like Vortex on that land.

 

 

The Challenge:

Build an Arrow Dynamics multi-looping coaster using the "Corkscrew Coaster" coaster type.

Because the manager wants a coaster like Vortex, it must do the following:

• Have a drop of at least 138 feet
  
• Reach a speed of at least 55mph
  
• Have at least two loops, two corkscrews, and a batwing

Wait, what? Did I seriously beat Jakizle??

Haha, I guess the people voting don't like Arrows.

 

^I did vote for you though, because while not Arrow your ride had pretty good BT!

Well it looks like that vote killed you.

Pretty well! Congratulations!

(My favourite was the "Old Faithfull". Second one: "Countach")

Haha, I guess the people voting don't like Arrows.

 

^I did vote for you though, because while not Arrow your ride had pretty good BT!

If there is one thing to learn of any contest, no matter how big or small, is that if you are able to vote for yourself, you ALWAYS VOTE FOR YOURSELF!

^Theoretically yes, but:

 

When the poll closes, everyone will know who everyone picked. That also means that if you make the grave mistake of voting for yourself, everyone else will know how much of a jerk you are. You'll get disqualified, too.

 

^ Oh...I did not see that. Personally, I don't have a problem with people voting for themselves. I'll make sure that's a change we make in our next challenge...
