The Official "TPR Japan Trip 2007" Thread
Sunfire replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Tokyo Disneyland looks like such a great park. But why are the fastpass lines so long? Hopefully we can see some more bizarre flavors of popcorn. -
What's your favorite Flat ride?
Sunfire replied to FlyingScooter's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^In the US, Afterburners are called "Fireball." A couple of days ago I got a new favorite flat ride: Chaos. I rode it at Adventuredome in Las Vegas, and immediately fell in love with it! I enjoyed the flipping on this ride more than Zipper. On Zipper, it just flipped too much. On Chaos, I had a great time just spinning it myself. I wish I could go back. -
Shane's Amusement Attic

^Marriott's Great Adventure?????? You mean Great America, right? -
Merry Christmas TPR! I got: 3 DS Games: Brain Age, Mario Party DS, and Theme Park. Also, a 50 dollar gift certificate to Gamestop. And my little cousin got me a Jamba card. God, I love Jamba Juice. My DS games will be entertaining because I am flying to Vegas today! Expect a photo TR in a couple weeks.

Shane's Amusement Attic
Sunfire replied to montezooma's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Ahh, Marriott's Great America. The good days that I never got to see. How I wish I was alive in that era. Is there a nostalgic smiley somewhere ? -
Green all the way!

Wow, Joe. The steak looks really good, had it not been marinated in beer. Oh well. If I learned one thing from the movie Ratatouille, it's that great chefs take risks to see what is good. Keep up the fun cooking TR's!

Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said
Sunfire replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yup. If you live on the west coast, the only theme parks the GP know of are DLR, Knotts, SFMM, and maybe Great America and SFDK. But they don't even know a thing about the parks anyway. If I had a dime for every time I hear, "They're going to tear down Top Gun because it's sinking on the lake," I would be richer than Bill Gates. -

I just downloaded 1.7 now. Yay mine train and X-car! Now I can recreate TPR breaking Abismo in Spain! -
100 reasons you love TPR
Sunfire replied to Coasterlicious's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
103. TPR ASSistants being able to delete spam posts quickly. 104. Understanding inside jokes that none of my family understands. 105. The ability to turn trashcans into theming. 106. Any of Wes's posts. 107. Being able to be myself around other TPR members. 108. Coasters, porn, and coaster porn! -
Wes, you are one of the most insane, yet fun, people to walk this earth. Beyond all that sarcasm, there is a layer of humor. P.S.- Unicorns f**king rock! Lol.

Photo Report: It's Beggining to look allot like Christmas
Sunfire replied to spaceace12's topic in Random, Random, Random
Ooh, I love the snow. Unfortunately I live in the Bay Area where it never snows. So today, my dad and I drove up to the Sierra Nevada. We heard on the news that there had recently been a snow storm. So when we got to the Sierras, everything was shrouded in snow. The trees were flocked with fresh powder, not like the fake ones in department stores! It was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. I did have my camera phone and took tons of pics, but I don't know how to upload them. Hopefully when I learn how to make Photo TR's I can share some of the pics. -

Green. Defenitely. Why is Beverly so nasty? -
The GP really are stupid. Whenever I go to my homepark, California's Great America, I always ride the Intamin Drop tower, even after the accident. But many GP will say stuff like, "I don't want to ride Drop Zone, a girl got her feet cut off on it!" Uhh, do these people pay attention to WHERE it happened? It happened on the other side of the country on the prototype version of the ride (please correct me if it's not the prototype.) Also, about 8 years ago, a boy fell to his death on CGA's Drop Zone, and Intamin adjusted the harnesses to increase saftey, yet people still refrain, scared the same will happen to them. Now, what are the chances that this will happen again? Not that likely. Drop towers operate hundreds of cycles each day. Two accidents have happened in the last ten years of hundreds of cycles a day. People really don't have anything to worry about. The way I see it, the chances of another horrific accident, are very slim. Sorry if I'm not making sense, I'm writing this half asleep.

Post your milestone coasters
Sunfire replied to bgwfreak's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'm currently at 25 (counting defunct coasters). 1. Green Slime Mine Car Coaster (now Rugrats Runaway Reptar) at CGA. 5. Boomerang at SFDK (back when it was Marine World) 10. Top Gun at CGA. 15. Giant Dipper at SCBB 20. California Screamin' at DCA 25. Taxi Jam at CGA (first credit after discovering TPR and credit whoring). -
I'm not really angry about this, but: Algebra 2 is so hard. First of all, I've never had a knack for algebra. I find everything confusing. Especially factoring. And my teacher seems to thrive on giving us the most confusing problems on factoring possible. No matter how much I try, I can never get it. Hopefully I'll eventually be able to understand it.

I guess the men who created that are compensating for something.

Worst Coaster Experience
Sunfire replied to airforcekid's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'll have to put my vote in for Manhattan Express. When I rode it last year, it was fun at the beginning, but after the first drop, my neck kept banging into the evil OTSR's. I was in pain for an hour after that. That was the worst coaster experience for me. Still, if the coaster didn't have the OTSR's, it would be great! But of course, it's still a Togo death machine. -

Photo TR: Christmastime at Disneyland!
Sunfire replied to arrowfanman's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
^LOL! Great Photo TR, Jahan. I've never seen such an indepth look at Disneyland during the Christmas season. I want to go to DLR, but my family can't afford it. -
This is great! You're still on schedule! Keep it up, and you'll acheive your goal. You've inspired me to eat healthier. I can't eat nothing but junk food all day, or I'll become more of a morbosity, and I won't fit inside Chance Revolutions!
