Why can't you just submit your parks 24/7? Also I think here this too many rules... but that's that.

Having people submit parks 24/7 will get very complicated for us to keep control of. Having just one week, which is plenty time, will keep it easier to watch.

Also, if you feel any rules are 'unjust' or don't even need to fit, PM me, and I will discuss it with other staff, and we will make a decision on it.

Yes, any RCT Park that fits in with the Rules

As long as it is mostly yours and you havent entered it into a previous contest, then it should be fine.

I agree with most rules, but I have a few questions.

1. Why cant a park be submitted more than once?
2. How often will the contests be? Every month? Weekly? Every two weeks?

The 90% rule is a bit vague too. What if someone builds a dueling coaster for me? Or does some theming and stuff? And how're you gonna enforce the rule anyways?

1. You can't submit a 'winning' park more than once. Sorry, I will make that more clearer now.

2. They will be monthly as of now, as soon as more people participate it will be bi-weekly, and then maybe weekly. (Of course by then, submissions would be 24/7)

Birderboy--
We can't really 'enforce' this rule, we just ask you to be honest. Kinda like the honor rule. Also, the 90% and 1 coaster rule is just an example. Just try to be honest with how much of the park is yours. You can give or take a couple of percent on that number too.

can we enter two parks to increase odds. because it says you can only post once in the submissions thread but i think that would be ok. it would be just like the regular coaster contests.

For the first contest, or first few, it will stay so that you can only enter one. If more complaints come in we may feel like changing it. Also, would you want someone like Natelox, Elrocko, or Kraken, or even Buster if he comes to enter 2 parks at once to increase their odds?

You guys, enough with the how would you know questions ok? He just wants you to be honest, and follow by the rules of the contest. He is not making you submit a park, and if think that a rule is unfair, but they can't change it for whatever reason, then so be it. Just be honest people.

If I enter a park on Sunday, can I enter the same park on Monday at a different site? I mean will the park still have the words 'Previously Un-realised' tagged on it?

ok here is a walk through by rebel2000:

Do you have winzip? If you do, go like this:

1. open Winzip classic interface

2. Click on the "New" symbol to create a new archive

3. Name the archive and save it into a briefcase

4. Now just go through C:\Program Files\Hasbro Interactive\Roller Coaster Tycoon\Saved Games and find your park

5. Click "OK" to add it to the archive

6. Once that you have everything you need in the archive, go to the submission thread and reply

7. In "Attach File" browse for the archive (it should be in one of your briefcases) and attach it.

8. Submit!

aslo if it says wasnt able to open it because it had some kind of problem then follow these bak up instructionswhat u have to do is:

1.clik on new archive
2.find your park
3.right clik on your park and select add to zip
4.browse computer under attach file
5.look where your park was originally saved under and u will see a duplicate of it but it will have the winzip icon next to it
6.clik on that and send reply or thread

And if you don't have WinZip (like me), here's what you do:

1. Put the park file some folder
2. Right-click the icon
3. Click "Send to Compressed Folder"
4. Add anything you need to to the file in the compressed (zipped) folder.
5. When posting it, click on the .zip folder when you browse for attachment.
6. It's here!

Is there a minimum or maximum number of coasters your park can have.

Nope, this contest is all about your style and your way of working. It is entirely up to you.
