I didn't enter a park, but Santa probably hasn't arrived yet because obviously there's still 21 days until christmas Eve!! :lol: And hey, a park isn't just for christmas... :P

This fourth one also seemed pretty crowded. A good coaster layout but just too much stuff inside. I think this park could have done without the mini golf course.

i like the effect of the bobsled coaster going around the ice castle on this fourth one. the mini golf going inside is cool too, but it just got too crowded. :wacko: probably could have been planned out a little better. overall, pretty good. santa would've been nice, but i dont think hes a necessity. :P

The good news is that all four are currently in my favorites list. The bad news is that 3 of them will likely be replaced sooner than later.

I really liked the idea of a bobsled. I tried hard to fit one in but they just take too much space. No matter what I tried I ended up with a big ugly lift hill on one side of the park and little space to put anything else in. It made me very sad because I really wanted to put one in.

Thanks "nr. 4" for a very nice mini, liked it very very much. Nice bobsleds! :D

Yes, one ride less would also have done for me, but as I see from the various reactions (to all 4 parks so far) that is rather personal: some seem to like as much rides as possible to give it an "amusement-park feeling", for others less rides are needed.

Well, with 24 parks (Woopie!, still 20 surprises to come :D ) there will something for everyone's taste.

I'm curious to see a 'park' in this competition that does not seem crowded given that the bench is 17x17.

There you have a point (actually the map was even smaller than 17x17!!)

Well if the park is only one ride I'm sure it's possible. Look at entry three. ;)

Although park THREE has been done very well, for me it is missing a 'park' like feel that the other ones have. To me, Park THREE feels like a portion of a bigger park. I guess the trick will be to get a 'park' like feel without the over crowding. :ermm:

Based on the list of entrants I would guess that there will be quite a few more uncrowded parks like #3.
