It's Friday, Friday. Gotta Sky-Line on Friday. Everybody's lookin' forward to the guessing guessing.
There you are, you are most welcome for that piece of lyrical genius. Anyway, on with the task in hand and some answers;
City 1 - Paris. The parks in question being, Parc Asterix, Mer de Sable & Jardin d'Acclimatation
City 2 - LA. The parks quite obviously being Disneyland, Universal Hollywood & Adventure City
City 3 - Brisbane. Made up of Dreamworld, Sea World & Aussie World.
City 4 - Leicester. Complete with coaster icons such as, Drayton Manor, Twinlakes & Wicksteed Park.
City 5 - Dunkirk. With parks in three different countries. Dreamland Margate, Plopsaland & Dennlys Parc.
Now, first of all I will state that we will also accept Birmingham for City 4 and Calais for City 5... We thought we had measured them, however clearly there were other options and we are sorry. We are only human after all.
On the topic of being only human... We must also apologise for causing one member what would appear to be a minor nervous breakdown, or possibly he's just having a midlife? We aren't really sure. However yes, we did get the measurements of Disneyland slightly wrong and no Big Thunder Mountain isn't 107ft tall... The mountain maybe, the track however, not so much.
Anyway, the scores are as follows;
@John - 35
@Rob - 22
@Brad97 - 19
@Poisson - 18
@MattyH - 6
Proof that being slow and steady can still serve well, as even by being last to submit and losing 8 points, dear old Rob still came 2nd by taking time and guessing them all correctly! So with that, we are pleased to say we are keeping the 'Time Stress' points element in for another week. -2 points for every player that answers before you! Think wisely.
So after our slight mishaps this week, we thought we would take it slightly back to basics... But not too much. Just bog standard skylines of parks, no tricks, no gimmicks. Welcome to week 11, welcome to...
Week 11 - IN THE WORLD!
Skyline No. 1
Skyline No. 2
Skyline No. 3
Skyline No. 4
Skyline No. 5
So there you have it, four skylines that could be anywhere in the world. Have another lovely form and give us some more lovely answers. Rants about how evil we are, are of course still most welcome! See you next Friday xoxo

I was wondering where you'd got the height of BTMR from, but the colours meant it could only be Disneyland. I wasn't sure if Birmingham was a deliberate attempt at a trap with the parks being closer to Leicester, but as you were thinking of Dunkirk rather than (my answer of) Calais I guess I'm lucky you're accepting other valid answers.
Still annoyed that I missed out on the random skyline by about 90s. With more reliable wifi in the break room on site I'd have made it

ER! We're trying our best here, Christ!Sounds like I may not have been the last to sumbit answers this week, excellent! That was somewhat easier this week, not least because the heights were indeed the heights of the coasters and not the heights of associated theming!
Absolutely certain.
