I think Rizzo is right above Miss Piggy
Yep, that's him.

I believe he is also in the Muppet Detective Agency on the Dream and Fantasy as well...

I know Pepe is (he has his own stateroom on board!)

This may not be a great idea, but I was thinking...Does anyone think it would be cool to have a 3rd place match? Maybe not this year because its already planned out, but I think it might be neat to kind of have a gold, silver, and bronze placement.
But not that I think it will really improve it. I kind of think the tournement is good enough o its own, but just a thought:)

I think that is a great idea!

If for no other reason then it gives us more submissions to read! And I love reading submissions!

I don't think so this year, because I think the matches should have separate challenges (which I am not prepared for), but for next year that's a great plan!

FINAL ROUND
@englanddg vs. @MonorailRed

Let me congratulate you both for being amazing. You've each made it through two rounds now. Theoretically, there should only be 33% of the competition left. But you're not even close to done (this next one, if I may say so, is a doozy).

IT ALL COMES DOWN TO THIS.

THE CHALLENGE
Ladies and gentlemen, the final Imagineering challenge of 2014!

WorldShowcase1(1024x768).jpg


World Showcase in Epcot is an excellent glimpse into the cultures, landscapes, and traditions of many countries. With each pavilion bordering the lagoon, there is excellent thematic contrast seeing a Norwegian stave church across the water from a British pub, or a pyramid in Mexico acrossfrom a Parisian café.

The Imagineers set aside a lot of land for future expansion when designing World Showcase:

All in all, there are 8 expansion pads just waiting to be used. Your assignment is to fill each of these expansion pads with a pavilion, each one representing a unique region of the world. You may get rid of any existing structures currently occupying the space of the expansion pads.

There are no limitations on content. Go crazy with your imaginations!

Due date is December 28th, 2014 at midnight E.T. (at the end of the day)

Your guest judge for this round is @marni1971


With Expansion pad #7… Can we make the International Gateway fit the theming of whatever we choose?

Since it's not technically an "expansion pad" I though I'd Ask. :D

I think I already know the answer is no, I'll ask anyway...

Are we allowed to poach on unused back portions of existing pads for say, ride building space?

Examples would be the back of the UK pavilion or the unused lot (well, it's logistical storage now) behind Germany?

Great challenge Z! I am excited thoroughly to see what Eng and Red come up with! :joyfull:
Personally I have always liked having the trees there as a transition between the countries, but I also think that the WS is getting a bit stale and needs more attractions (with ice cartoons not being the answer). Let's go, Imagineers!:D

Placement of countries is a challenge as well...as cultures for some are too similar to place next to others, and in other cases too vastly different to place next to each other.

The one transition that's sticking me right now is the fact that the wonderful "jump across the channel" that exists between the UK and France is going to be broken up...

Picking countries...easy. Placing them...hard!
