  1. Why are people so damn fat it america? It is disgusting.
  2. looks really good, although i dont like the supports on the cobra roll for the launched coaster...
  3. yes it would i think. youd pass through a time zone every hour and youd stay in the exact same time yes, but being in a different time zone doesnt mean you dont age... and just for the record, i read some of Stephen Hawking's book, and he says gravity does affect time. And if you managed to be on the singularity of a black hole, you wouldnt age or something, so it is kind of a way to forwards in time, although it is impossible...
  4. i voted all natural. big breats are pretty ugly IMO.
  5. Sea World Side Trip Well, this isnt really much of a side trip. We had 2 hours to spare heading back to the airport, so we decided to stop off at sea world and ride Kraken... Kraken was a great ride, the floorless trains made it a really cool experience. The drop is great, and it keeps a good pace going throughout the whole ride. The whole ride was also amazingly smooth.. I really have no complaints about Kraken, and i will give it a 10/10
  6. Well, this is my first trip report, so ill try my best to make it interesting. unfortunately i dont have a digital camera, so no pictures Anyhoo, we arrived at BG on Tuesday at 11 am (we planned on getting there at about 9, but the alarm clock broke ). So i thought that we wouldnt really have time to do everything, but i thought wrong... There were hardly any people at the park. From the parking lot, i saw Montu running practically empty trains. Speaking of Montu, that was the 1st coaster of the day... Montu: Montu was a front row walk-on the whole day, so I managed 3 rides. 2 front row, and 1 back row. Montu was great. The 1st drop was great, and so was the whole ride. The wingover was my favorite part of the coaster: it was smooth at pulled some good G's at the bottom. The only park of the coaster that i didnt really like was the corkscrew, but i dont like any corkscews anyway... Mantu was a good length too, and it kept up a pretty fast pace the whole ride. Overall, i would give it an 9.5/10 After riding Montu twice, we headed down towards the back of the park to Kumba, which i was really looking forward to riding. Kumba: Kumba looked pretty sexy with its new paint job. Once again, Kumba was a front row walk-on practically the whole day, so i got in 3 rides (2 front, 1 back). From the front, Kumba was a pretty good ride. The loop was pretty forceless though... apart from that, the whole ride is great, especially the zero-g roll. Riding from the back was a different story. Kumba was showing signs of aging... The ride was much rougher after the loop, and i think i blacked out sometime after the zero-g roll, because i dont remember anything after that until the corkscrews. There was quite a lot of headbanging the whole ride, but Kumba is getting pretty old now... Overall, i would give Kumba: 8/10 After a quick lunch, we headed to Python... Python: Pyhton's station was emptier than any other ride in the park, and there was only 1 other guy on the ride apart from us. The ride was short, and boring, but less rough then i thought it would be. a good ride for beginners, but really nothing special... 5/10 Finally, it was time to ride Skeikra. The ride looks great, and it towers over everything else in the park, and that drop looks amazing... Skeikra: It turns out everyone in the park was waiting for Sheikra, so we had to deal with a terrible 5 minute wait! OMG! i was thinking about not riding because the line was so long... Anyhoo, i thought i knew what to expect from Sheikra because i have already been on Oblivion, but this coaster was completly different. Our first ride was right in the middle of the front row. At the top of the lift-hill, there are some good views of the park, and you can see downtown Tampa off in the distance. But you really dont have time to admire the views, because after about 5 seconds, this is what you are looking at: http://www.rcdb.com/ig2662.htm?picture=71 Hanging over that drop is crazy, and you dont know when you are gnna go... When you drop, it is a great feeling, there is some sexy airtime, followed by some good G's at the bottom, and then you head right into the 145' tall immelmann. There is some amazing floater airtime at the top of it, which is one of the best experiences i have had on a coaster. The second drop is pretty fun, and makes the ride more than just 2 elements. The whole ride was great, and overall, i would give Skeikra a 10/10 After Sheikra, we decided to cool down on cheetah chase... Cheetah Chase: Meh, a typical wild mouse, kinda uncomfortable, a bit painful, meh... 5/10 After 3 more rides on Skeikra, we headed towards Scorpion which was CLOSED! no Schwarzkopf goodness today . So instead of scorpion, we headed towards Gwazi. Now everyone is saying how it is so rough and whatnot, but i decided to ride it anyway, just for the credit. Unfortunately, Tiger was closed so we had to ride Lion. Gwaizi (Lion): Another pretty much empty station, so we decided to ride the back row. I was expecting the worst, but i was somewhat pleasantly surprised with Gwazi. The first drop was meh, as was most of the ride, but there was nothing painfull about it. yeah i guess it bounches you around a bit, but thats why i like wooden coasters; and there were a few moments of a bit of floater airtime... I would give Gwazi a 6.7/10 Gwazi was out last ride of the day, and in 5 hours at the park we managed: 3 rides on Montu, lunch, 3 rides on Kumba, 1 ride on Python, walking around the bird exibit, 4 rides on Skeikra, stopping for a drink, walking through the gorrila exibit, 1 ride on Cheeta Chase, 1 ride on Gwazi... So overall i thought it was a pretty successful day...

  11. i <3 huckabees "Grizzly Adams did have a beard."
  12. am i the only one who doesnt get the peanutbutterjellytime video?
  13. i proably wont see it in theatres, because i find horror movies arent really scary that way. mainly because theyre alot of people around you and you kinda feel safer, instead of being in your house in the dark or whatever...
  14. you can make a website for free, but youll probably have some ads on it. otherwise you have to pay like $2 a month....
  15. that inverted coaster looks like it would be going way too fast through the inversions....

    BGT tips?

    okay, well, i am going to BGT in 2 days, and i was wondering if any of you guys could give me some tips that will make my visit better. one thing I am wondering is if the park will be very crowded...
  17. that looks great, can you take a vid of it?
  18. well, i dont really read gaming magazines, i just use the IGN website for reviews etc. I think it is a great website which seems ot have all the latest info for all types of games, and their reviews are pretty IMO.
  19. i dont wanna watch crappy CFL highlights, that whole league is a joke...
  20. why dont you just make it an RCT QnA thread, so RCT3 questions can be asked here too?
