thats a really awesome contest just one question, when the second partner gets the track, to what extent are they allowed to modify the first partner's work, or can they not do any modification at all?

I knew I was forgetting some stuff...

G's are now posted in the rules.
Terrain is allowed
Only mcbr
You may only smooth the other persons track, you cannot add or delete any vertices.

When you both work together, you guys can decide who does supports or how many cars you want (there is a required amount now posted in the rules). To keep in contact, please use AIM, PM each other, or email. Please do not use this thread or another thread.

The rules say, six cars per train. Is that a minimum, a maximum, or does it have to be exactly six cars?

And I guess the "second group" (all those who are not mentioned in the contest thread) can do nothing the first 20 days?

errrrr..........ummmm........yeah. My computer got pwned and I don't have No Limits, so can I switch with my partner and be put into the second group? Also, when do we find out our partners and did you assign partners based on skill level? i.e. Real and Matt M can't be partners, because we'd all get pwned.

Pairings are random. You will know who your partner is once round one is over with. Finally, willski, I've asked your partner, and I am waiting for a response. I will pm you with further info.

To smooth someones track, you normally have to add or subtract verticies. The way the bezier system works, sometimes what was made just wasnt made properly and would have to be re-worked, but to give the same element and feel...guess thats out of the question.

Doesnt matter, Im first group anyways.

Ok, if I was asked to go into the first round, I cannot, my videocard/motherboard decided to crap out in the middle of track tennis and the contest. I should have it fixed by the second round, which is where I was originally put.

Does an extreme banking count as an inversion?

Can you use more than one lift/launch segment?
