Vayify owns the competition with UK seaside town
Upset victory for Cities in a Snap
Saturday's Cities in a Snap was won by a large margin by Vayify, a British mayor from the North of England.
The third April qualifier with the theme "regional fishing", was as a loose tie in with the Sunset Harbour DLC. The four contestants each came up with beautiful waterside cities, but the stand-out by far was Vayify's asset-heavy UK seaside city, Vayton-On-Sea.
The painfully British beach town was the crowd favourite by far, featuring a pebbly grey beachfront, amusement park, gorgeously detailed row houses, and a winding country road to a small satellite village in the hillside. The build almost had commentator AwesomeElves in tears with nostalgia.
A close shave
Overall Vayton-On-Sea was highest voted by audience and judges alike, which seemed to take Vayify completely by surprise.
Earlier as a "bit of friendly banter" Vay made a promise to shave his head if he beat previous champ SoEverdream. This promise was followed through on promptly after CIAS.
After the competition he commented, "I didn't think I was gonna win to be honest with you".
