I wasn't eagering to review any world cup levels, but now I wanted to do it.

Event 12
It was only a few moments after I had been frustrated with the results of event 11, which I had been playing quite much with a totally wrong style. So when I first openen up this event I was devastated. But shortly after I felt more confident. Afterall, the bigger the level, the less players. One thing I felt sad about was the random grass. A plus was ofcourse the thought that you could complete this level with not even really completing it, so to say. MK started style seeking, and the more variations we got, the more I began to appreciate this level. And as someone mentioned in #wc5, this must've been a beast to make. The quality was well spreaded over the whole level, and the tricks seemed pretty do-able.

Over the whole week we have had been changing the style, fun that was, before getting to our final one. Then the less fun part began. I quickly ran out of time, and out of patience when some stuff began to annoy when it wasn't really easy to do in one run. That indeed, dz, was one irritating factor. Some tricks that are challenging to do in the first moments, become horrifying when you hoyl and have not much time left.

Playability: 7.8
Visuality: 6.5
Style-seek-funfactor: 10
Overall: 8.5

By the way, in what restaurant do they have a custom menu where it is compulsory to take an x amount of food? :roll:

i gotta admit that i was looking forward towards wcup5 pipe event.... but Sierra, I´m sorry, this pipe sucks... i don`t have the patience to play and thats not only because of me being lazy... even the first pipe is annoying to drive... sure i could get used to it a bit, but i was hoping for a much more enjoyable pipe...

The pipe actually is pretty enjoyable until like apple 26 where it gets annoying... Wanna increase pipe difficulty? OK, make hard turns, braking points, uphills but please, don't make them bumpy and as tight as your ass.
