Take special note of the CHANGED for 2009 rules:
_____________________________________________________________
The Road Rallies will be held in tight consecutive order with the next beginning as soon as the previous leg ends - it is a grueling always moving Rally. There will be one Winner and possibly two Runner-ups each of legs/destinations and all winners/runner-ups will be invited to participate in the Final Road Rally of the Year in November, with the chance become the Road Rally Champion of 2009...
The judging will be done by the Staff and by other members as needed..
Each Road Rally leg/destination will have a specific country to theme your park around. The theme will be based on what country the Road Rally is taking place that month. Sometimes this coincides with local events that can guide the theme of your park. We may not tell you about these and rely on your local knowledge to build that into your park.
The contest will be RCT2 only.
There will be a set of directions to follow, objectives to be met. The goal is to build the best themed map, meeting all the objectives, and finishing by the deadline.
You will only have a minimum of 4 weeks from time of announcement to build your park - sometimes more. Each segment of the Road Rally contest, new objectives will be assigned and the Road Rally will be in another country.
This year, the Road Rallies will be all over the world and you won't know where it will be held until its time to announce the country and Road Rally for that month.
- Checkpoints : You will be given a series of objectives that must be completed. For example...build a go karts ride and a wooden coaster.
-Workbenches:
The map size is approximately 50X50 although some benches may have a custom size. Benches CAN NOT be changed!!!! You can take the bench into the editor to move or change the entrance, but that is the only change which is allowed to the bench!!! You cannot change or add any rides or scenery to the map. You must use what is available. You can build any rides that are available and use any shops/stalls/paths that are available. You can of course landscape the workbench. If the bench is an odd size (not square) and has area lowered and blacked out - that area is not intended for use.
-Trainers: Trainers and Hacking are allowed. If however the judges cannot open your park, or need special tools or instructions - it may be disqualified.
-Submitting Entries: Send all entries to rctspacecontests@gmail.com, zipped with the applicants' Park name, Road Rally and Forum username. Example: Greece Road Rally-emergo. The Deadline will be given in the specific months rules.
-Received Entries: Entries will be acknowledged when received and names mentioned in the post. If you don't get a return message - it may not have been received.
If you send a park and your name is not added to the list, it will be for one of the following reasons:
1. I didn't receive it. (no email acknowledgment of receipt)
2. It was corrupt and wouldn't open.
3. You changed the ride or object selection.
4. One or more of the objectives were not completed.
5. You need some patience as the contest mail is not checked every day.
If any of the above happens, you will not be informed automatically. It will be up to you to figure out the problem and resubmit the park. We try to let you know of problems - but no guarantee, so don't expect it.
-Winning Parks: Only each months Winner and Runner-up's (if any) will be posted for download. Non winning parks submitted for the competition can be released at the discretion of the builder, after the completion of each months round.
