Hmmm...I guess I'll be a judge for best theming of a park. But I really don't think you'll need three judges for each category. Maybe 5 - 10 judges total and perhaps you could cut down on a few categories? There are an awful lot and some are not necessary.

Entry! Best storyline of a park, RCT3. I'll need some time though what with school and all.


If CS is allowed, I'm in. If not, then I'll gladly be a judge for any or all RCT3 parks in any or every category.

No, there is no set date as of right now! But if you'd like a ballpark figure, i'm looking some where around the end of sep. or the middle of oct. It mainly depends of how many entries i get

So, is anyone going to enter or at least take some interest? I've seen some parks that look awesome on here (i.e. IOA Hollywood!)!

Still no set dead line! I still need some judges. I've changed it again to cut down on confusion. Anyone who is not entering can judge, you just can't enter and judge too... Sorry..

Does it matter to the judges if I have Wild!? I'm looking to get in on the best coaster categories, but I was just wanna make sure I can make it with the extended coaster that the regular and Soaked! don't have.

Milkchan: As long as it's your park, feel free.

Fastdawg07: Whatever you got is great! All Expansion parks are acceptable!

Timbersman: What do you mean?

Sorry guys, I'm gonna have to withdraw from the contest. My bad. I just don't feel like spending my college money on a ZIP download where it could be going somewhere else...like State basketball tickets. Anyway, again, I'm sorry.

OH, no, I want to upload the coaster for the contest...are you going off pictures or the actual coaster for download in the game? I guess if all you want is the pictures, then fine.

Just what ever you want to post. It can be screen shots, or you can even make a movie of it and post it up on youtube! I think i'm going to make a post on youtube myself about this contest!
