I had a ton of fun with this contest, even though I didn't win. Thanks! I'm looking forward to the next one.

Congrats to everyone who participated.  I can't wait for the next CAP contest!

To answer a few of the questions that were asked on the stream, my park was not re-purposed from an earlier time.  I made it just for this contest.  Like someone mentioned, my park was greatly inspired by the skate park portion of the Tampa level.  This is because Tampa was one of my favorite levels to play along with my brother and sister when we first got THUG 1 for PS2.  I agree that the level feels a little tight in the two buildings.  I had to reduce the space a little in order to make sure that the park meter didn't overfill and freeze the game.  I also wanted to keep the level from getting any larger because I was trying to make the background theme surrounding the park align with some of the objects used in the park.

Fantastic job from all of those who participated, and congrats to ThAEm for winning! We had a lot of submissions this time around and I hope to see even more in the next one. Thank you all for the fun parks!

That is really impressive you put together your entry with that much going on in 2 weeks! Seriously impressed. Hope to see more of your work in the future- really good stuff!

Thanks!  I might try uploading some of my other parks if I am ever able to get permission to be in that "Upload Approved" group that lets me submit creations here.

You can upload right now! There is no restriction on who can and can't upload their creations on this site. Just go here: http://thpsx.com/community-uploads/ and you're good to go!

EDIT: I may be wrong- it does seem there is a process. I'll see what I can do about getting you upload approved Chuckiepk.

[Chuckiepk]

Okay.  I tried to do that earlier today and it told me that I had to be a part of the "Upload Approved" member group.  In order to be a part of the group, it said that I needed to fill something out to get permission.  I checked again just now and it says that I can now upload so I guess my request was approved.  Thanks!

Yea, I saw your post about it and approved you then. We've had issues in the past where people have spammed gross things. Had to lock it down to prevent further abuse.

[Chuckiepk]

I understand. I wouldn't want that kind of stuff posted on here either.

Thanks for the approval.

[ThAEm]

I really enjoyed Iron Hawk's factory comp, chuckie's park, and officer's prison park. I honestly thought one of those were gonna win the contest. In all, there was some good enthusiasm for this contest. I don't think there was ever this many entries in a contest as far as I know.
And about the theme for the next contest, I'm still thinking about it.

I would like to point out a mistake with the spreadsheet for Soulstorm. Please check!

(or did SS's park simply not have any gaps/goals?)

There were no gaps or goals thus why those scores are all zeros.

congratulations ThaEm ! good tourney, fun tourney

[ThAEm]

OK, I think I have a good idea for the next contest's theme. How about "School"? I don't think we did that before.
