Twister II

Here are mine form Knott's and Islands of Adventure. I have my Cedar Point ones somewhere... Im on the right side, I look like a rabbit! =P Winter 2005 Waiting to launch....Im on the right. Winter 2005 Im the younger looking one. =] Taken in 2004 Millennium Force, I was scared outta my mind. Remember, I was like 13. Top Thrill. Seriously, look at my dad's face! Taken in 2003. God, I look like a dork...

But Zierer has had no history of building a launch coaster, wouldn't you expect to see at least a little info on a new coaster prototype on their website? Plus, Zierer has only had one coaster over 100ft. I just hope its not Zierer.

That. Looks. So. Good. mode>

"YES! Finally got a Guy credit!"

Well both the flume and slide are done! I'll post pictures later. Also, I'd like any advice you guys have on how to make my park better in anyway! Thanks!

I really think its fine. I personally like longer descriptions. I just think that you should put a link to the 2005 videos on the 2006 contest page.

Whoh! The new coaster is open! The name given is Anaconda. The splash boats and slide ride are still undergoing construction. Here are some pic's from media day. CrAzY aIrTiMe! Taken from the MCBR Here is the second. One of the two turn around bowls. The drop is HUGE! The lift is HUGE! The first aid station is to help the riders deal with the amazement of the ride! The queue goes threw this double level restaurant. Offering pizza, cocktails, and hamburgers! Station/Queue/Restaurant area Station threw the trees

Hey everybody! This thread is simple! Rather than having a million little threads about everything that goes on at Lagoon, this thread is designed to consolidate it all into one user-friendly thread. Feel free to use it to post updates, trip reports, questions, comments, and of course, general discussion. For pictures and videos of the park as well as past updates, see TPR's Park Index Page.

And finally it seems to be true! http://rcdb.com/id3534.htm I've heard about an X-Car type coaster, or a Half pipe. To me, a Half pipe seems very unlikely since there is one only 7 hours away. I'll be traveling to Lagoon the weekend of June 9th, and I'll definitely be on the looking for anything! Lagoon seems to be getting a lot better! New paint job for Jet Star II, new fountains, 4 new kiddie rides in 2 years, Spider, Lagoona Beech, etc.

Its been done before on Mr. Twister at the old Elitch Gardens. Height and angle changes.

So does this mean we can start calling it Kingda Krap again?

I usually spit. In the Mind Eraser queue!

Oh well, at least it didn't throw metal shards everywhere and stop on the launch track.

http://www.knotts.com/jobs/job_details.asp?deptID=6&cat=1 Probably around $6.50 hourly.

Probably be pushed back because of rain and mud. If I remember right, before a ride can open, it has to run 200 cycles with out any errors/breakdowns before open to the public. Chances are this would be more since it's a brand new ride.

I think I know what to get Denis (DenDen) for Christmas.

UPDATE! Do you know of what?

Im really surprised no one has thought of a Spinning Wild Mouse! For me, I said, "Hey! Cedar Point doesn't have a wild mouse, or anything like it!" The closest thing to it would be Wildcat. I wouldn't be surprised if that went bye-bye in a few years. Im thinking of something like Winja's from Phantasialand.

Porn.....or Prom...... Please read the posting rules! It REALLY bothers me when people use 2 instead of too/to!!!

I'd love a SFMW one! In fact I'd like if anyone has anything other than: SFEG SFMM SFGAdv those are the ones I already have! Remember, SFEG posters are, I guess, my specialty. Since I am, I think, the only one from Colorado doing this!

This is me.

Im not sure if your Windows 98 will be able to hold all 3 RCT3 games. Here are system requirements: Operating System: Windows® 98/Me/2000/XP (Windows® XP recommended) Processor: Pentium® III 733 MHz or compatible (Pentium® 4 1.2 GHz or compatible recommended) Memory: 128 MB RAM; 256 MB for XP (256 MB; 384 MB for XP recommended) Hard Disk Space: 600 MB free CD-ROM Drive: 4X CD-ROM or faster (8X or faster recommended) Video:Any ATI Radeon™ or GeForce™ 2 with 32MB or higher; or other video card with 32MB and hardware T&L (ATI Radeon™ 64 MB SDR or GeForce™ 2 Pro or other video card with 64 MB or more memory and hardware T&L recommended)* Sound: Windows® 98/Me/2000/XP-compatible 16-bit sound card* DirectX®: DirectX® version 9 (included) or higher For the free video editing software, www.google.com

Here is another update! Construction is slow, but slow and steady wins the race! Also, new slide parts are on site. The new coaster/area from Legend of the Phoenix. Oh yea, to keep the public's attention, Legend of the Phoenix was build in a hurry! It includes a complete queue theming and temple. Towards the lift area. New construction pic. These purple slide sections are on site. WTF?

1. When RCT3 and expansions are all installed, it doesn't have to run off of a CD at all! But I suggest after installing a package, do a "Check for Updates". 2. You have to use a video editing program. If you're using a windows computer, you have Windows Movie Maker for free.

I really liked the Silverwood video. But for me, Connar's (Magic Springs) took the cake, and ate it faster than a semi-hungry ACEr.
