Nothin planned except 13 so far. I'm probably not going outside Britain, so unless I get to southend or FI, there's not going to be much in the way of new coasters. SO jealous of you Americans with all your fancy-pantsy parks all over the place with all those massive rides and no water to...

^ All about the subconscious imagery that the name conjures up, instead of the name itself. Just like those big B+M coasters like 'Kumba'. What the hell's a Kumba? And yet, the name is designed to make you link of something looming, slightly tropical. I think of a big gorilla playing the...

Well, I don't know why I got this in my inbox because I haven't signed up to anything and I don't remember giving alton my email, but It made me laugh inside.

Eh? I can't see the poll... what's it say? Ultimate Megafobia Oblivion Nemesis Saw

^ I guess it might go a little faster in warm weather as well. I'm so waiting for the back seat :P

I just re-read this post, and I think I might fall into this category, so I'll just defend my position here. It's not that I have the 'cred' but I might say it like that - I've ridden the ride, I would have been upset if Roller coaster had been demolished before I rode it, because I'd never...

Wow, that looks pretty awesome! I Had a nice cycle on saturday, no snow down south anymore :( I did however learn about where Tolkien based his books - went for a uni interview at Birmingham, they said the tower in the middle was one of the towers that the 'two towers' are based on. The other...

# Is it just me, or does that drop look like a hugepotential for trains to valley in? I know NL isn't real life, but there's probably a reason why not many coasters have huge drops to below ground level, from a start position not much higher than ground level.

^Or do I? :wink: Discuss. <28>

Well 13's crap then. If it's not what's inside that counts, it just crests a small hill and possibly does a drop in its track.

I would totally buy these! :D It'd be great learning all the stats of coasters as well as playing with them. Maybe if you put a 'fun fact' at the bottom of each card as well!

Ok, maybe when I was at the park with my friends then. Or something. I distinctly remember bringing it up, and them being impressed, and possibly me having more debating power or something. You know, before I read this topic, I could've given a pretty good argument for keeping a count, but...

You got it all sussed out :P

I agree with most of your post, except this part. I count credits not because of bragging to other enthusiasts, I do it because I'm interested myself, and also because whereas if you posted your count on the forum, other people would just call you an idiot, instead, IRL, it gives you bragging...

Haha the lack of enthusiasm in the topic is funny. I watched it with my mum, neither of us watch Eastenders frequently, but we watched it cos we heard there'd be a death, and mainly, because it was live. It was hilarious. The amount of awkward pauses was great, but better than that, was...

Yep, although this is cutting it a bit - http://www.jumpsforjoy.net/waterslides.html 2nd waterslide down. Plus a load of waterparks that advertise as being vertical when they're only max about 70* [/off topic]

I might've made that statement too, before reading UC's posts. But what's been already said a couple times is that basically most (not all) but most of the GP are pretty damn thick. If Alton says it's intense and it's themed to something any more sinister than caterpillars, it's blow-your-mind...

I think almost everyone still wishes that it was a mega lite.

Sounds like a great idea for CF-ers to employ whilst bored in the queuelines :D Though they need stats. Or an attack. Megafobia Height: 60ft Top speed: 200mph Inversions: 0 Special power: Rain in your face! "Aww, crap, I got XNWO again..."

^^^^Hey, that mine train looks like it gives air! http://www.rcdb.com/1457.htm?p=4260 I like the look of the drop... I look forward to a fountain every morning :wink: just after i've looked at some 'business' on the internetz. Am I right in saying that the reason the train goes faster...
