3. Maverick
4. Superman: Ride of Steel (SFNE)

10. Top Thrill Dragster


11: Phantom's Revenge
12: Griffon/Sheikra
13: Tatsu
14: Talon
15: Phoenix (Knoebels)

There's only 5 coasters between them (one of which is also a B&M Hyper!), out of like, 344 coasters, a gap of 5 isn't that huge...

Again, 20 isn't that far down out of more than 300... There's a lot of coasters below that I think are AWESOME and will also rave about if they come up.

And also, you liked Darien's Superman better than New England's!?

Yeah. SFNE's was just a disappointment for not being as OMFG awesome as it was supposed to be, so left me a little anti-climatic and a bit, deflated? While Darien Lake's blew me away and was a LOT better than I thought it would be. The Darien one was a TONNE of fun with some great moments of airtime. The whole of SFNE's I just kept thinking "I don't... get... what's so awesome...?"
 
^Never go into a coaster thinking it will be 'OMFG AWESOME!'.. or you will ALWAYS be disappointed, no matter what the coaster is. ;)

Did that with X2.. in fact, I heard nothing but bad, and it is in my Top 10.
 
1. El Toro
2. Fahrenheit
3. Talon
4. Nemesis
5. Hydra : The Revenge
6. Nitro
7. Grand National
8. Kingda Ka
9. Nemesis Inferno
10. Storm Runner

I'm expecting a lot of changes this year. :--D

Anyways, here mine is:
Xcelerator - 1
Thunderhead - 2
Millennium Force - 3
Shivering Timbers - 4
SpongeBob SquarePants Rock Bottom Plunge - 5
Wicked Twister - 6
Top Thrill Dragster - 7
Silver Bullet - 8
California Screamin' - 9
Avatar Airbender - 10
 
Not much changing here.. Behemoth and Fahrenheit came along last year, and MindBender went up. I expect some changes this summer, though, for sure.

1. Millennium Force- Cedar Point
2. Voyage- Holiday World
3. Thunderhead- Dollywood
4. Top Thrill Dragster- Cedar Point
5. Montu- Busch Gardens Africa
6. Storm Runner- Hershey Park
7. Griffon- Busch Gardens Europe
8. Sheikra- Busch Gardens Africa
9. Behemoth- Canada's Wonderland
10. MindBender- Six Flags over Georgia
11. Maverick- Cedar Point

13. Dominator (Rel.)- Geauga Lake
14. Kentucky Rumbler- Beech Bend
15. Alpengeist- Busch Gardens Europe
16. Fahrenheit- Hershey Park
17. Lightning Racer- Hershey Park
18. Raptor- Cedar Point

My top 10:
1. Boulder Dash, Lake Compounce
2. Phoenix, Knoebel's
3. Lightning Racer, Hersheypark
4. Talon, Dorney Park

6. Kingda Ka, SF Great Adventure
7. Steel Force, Dorney Park
8. Nemesis, Alton Towers

10. Alpengeist, Busch Gardens Europe.

However, I'm not liking this list at all, as Kingda Ka is only based on a single front-seat ride, and Steel Force was also a front-seat nght ride which was awesome. I've also not been on Nemesis for a couple of years now, and everybody seems to say that it's getting rougher. :?

I don't have much planned this year themepark wise, just Six Flags Great America so far.
