Milestones in Your Counts

[Projektion]

100 - Zadra @ Energylandia
150 - Red Falcon @ Hirakata Park
200 - Kumba @ Busch Gardens Tampa
250 - Rutschebanen @ Tivoli Gardens

If you want to get into techinicalities, my 100th, 150th and 200th were actually Energus (Energylandia), Snoopys Great Race (Universal Studios Japan) and Scorpion (Busch Gardens Tampa) respectively. I went into Zadra, Red Falcon and Kumba with them being my milestones at the time, but I later found out about other creds I hadn't previously counted which threw them off but I still consider them my milestone coasters.

1500. One five zero zero.

And as I’m sure you know a lot of them are wacky worms, so it’s only appropriate that this milestone was another one. But I’m seriously not going out of my way for any more. So consider myself retired from chasing them.

Also nice to see Lizzie’s resting place from a distance. Two great eras coming to an end at Windsor.

Congratulations @Tomatron!

250 - Baaa Express (Europa Park)
Not quite as good as its clone over in Windsor but it's cute.

50 - Montu - Busch Gardens

Hit 100 October last year, was expecting a lot from my first B&M hyper but was very disappointed after my first ride

Congratulations on the milestone!

Did you… hold up a used piece of paper and photoshop the number on later? Surely I can’t be the only one that sees that.

Spot on. I knew the milestone was coming up but completely forgot to prepare a sign beforehand. Instead I hastily grabbed a park map from a previous park from my bag and held it up as a sign, then added the number later. Worked pretty well I think, although a proper sign would have been better.

What better way to celebrate your birthday than hitting a new milestone?

Milestone	Cred	Park	Year Achieved
50	Booster Bike	Toverland	2015
100	Wilde Maus XXL	Winter Wonderland	2016
150	Rioolrat	Hellendoorn	2019
200	Furio	Dennlys Parc	2020
250	Lighting Racer (Lightning)	Hersheypark	2022
300	Rutschebanen	Tivoli Gardens	2023

No longer going to mark the 50s. Next stop 400, which will probably be a couple of years away yet.

(Also, if you saw this post in the Top 10 thread...no you didn't )

Somehow stumbled across page 1 of this thread and saw this post from baby Hixee, circa 2008, looking forward to his 50th cred:

1. Dragon (Logoland)
25. Montu

50 is comming soon though...

Awww. So cute.

Other notables on page 1 are Ben, @Snoo and @Mushroom , all on 100.

Different world back then.

And @CanobieFan already dunking on everyone about to get 500.

I’ve just come to the realisation that if everything goes as planned on my upcoming Florida trip in June, and I get all the credits that I hope to get… I may find myself sitting on 99 coasters.

My current expectation (or perhaps hope?) for credit gain during the trip is:

1. +2 at Islands of Adventure (VelociCoaster and Hagrid’s added since my last trip)
2. +2 at SeaWorld Orlando (Ice Breaker and Pipeline added since my last trip)
3. +4 at Busch Gardens Tampa (Iron Gwazi and Tigris added since my last trip, Scorpion and Sand Serpent not ridden on my last trip)

Having 99 coasters in my count will be a tantalising position to be in…

I’d better hope that Brean gets a wriggle on with reopening their Pinfari looper so that I can head down there and get the +3 before we go!

Or maybe I could hope that my parents might briefly drop me off at Fun Spot Orlando so I can ride White Lightning and Freedom Flyer, what with how close it is to Universal!

I can’t quite believe that I’m within such close range of triple figures, though… with my aspirational trip plans for 2023, I think I could well hit 100 coasters at some point during the year!

Easy. And if they don't want to give you a ride, just call an Uber.

Glancing at your list of ridden coasters, you seem to be missing Super Grover at both SeaWorld and BGT as well as Space Mountain Omega, so that's an easy +3.

As a general rule, I don’t ride kiddie coasters, so I don’t factor those into my calculations.

Space Mountain Omega would be a convenient one, but we’re not going to Disney on this trip… if we were, things like Tron and Cosmic Rewind would also be on the list of new-to-me creds for this trip.
