Not too much to say now so I'll let the pictures do the talking. Basically I was bored and started tinkering around and my tinkering became a park. I know it's busier or clutterier than some parks... I just like that look. SCR187.BMP This is Cherokee... it's probably my favorite GCI layout I have ever done. SCR194.BMP Foliage getting better! SCR197.BMP Atmosphere. Also my Grandpa loves gazebos! SCR192.BMP Entry buildings. SCR193.BMP Entry building 2 SCR198.BMP Big Bad Wolf. Coming Soon.

I got occasionally(playfully) teased by my closer friends about my coaster(and Disney) obsessions. Honestly I feel like forums like these make things way better for enthusiasts cause I do like reading about and discussing rides and attractions or even the industry, although I am now a bit more of a Disney enthusiast than a coaster enthusiast, but that's not to say that I can't speak/don't love roller coasters! Honestly most people like roller coasters... just there are certain people(people like us) that like many aspects about roller coasters, or theme parks, or coaster history or things like that... no nerdier than computers or anything like that when you break it down, just a cool hobby.

[RCT 2] DELOS
the ghost replied to QueerRudie's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Good to see you back rude dude! Hope to see you back in chat at some point! Anyway this looks awesome... love your style! Especially your world famous Schwarzkopf's... seriously, amazing layouts. I love your out of the box style, simple but elegant. Excited to see where you go with this. -
If you're not listening to Frank Turner you have an unfulfilled life! Tape Deck Heart is awesome!

Admittedly I was a fastpass abuser for years, and while I have had to change the way I do certain things at certain times I am happy they are now enforcing it. People(admittedly like me) realized there was absolutely no consequence to fastpass time abuse, so we just showed up whenever we pleased and used the fastpass, but this is a good change that we have to get used to. The thing is there are "trends" there are specific times large groups will go to specific attractions and when that happens the CM's have to juggle a grumpy standby line and a huge fastpass line at the same time. As for being in the wrong area of the park it's not that big and there is a train system that will take you virtually anywhere in the park if you are for whatever reason(and all I can imagine are parades which are entirely avoidable) if you can't get around anything. If you are hanging out in the other park(and in all honesty getting from Screamin to Pirates takes about 15 minutes unless front gate lines are long) then that's on you. The point is we'll all get used to it. I'm very excited for Friday. Will it be a complete crowded mess? Yes. Was it on leap day? Of course. Did I have a GREAT time on leapday? Of course! Friday is about hanging out with friends and meeting Disney facebook groups and taking dumb pictures, or about waiting in a stupid line for food that you can't usually get and for that I'm excited!

Ugh... FRIENDZONED! The thing is I have just misinterpreted things... I mean, it was our second time meeting and our first time ever meeting "alone" so we'll see if I can move past the friendzone. The good news is she's PERFECT... but that's also the bad news in a way, lol because even though we met recently I REALLY want things to work out. But we're going to hang out this summer, she wants to go to Warped Tour(this is where we share a love of punk rock/ska) D23(this is where we share a love of Disney) and WEST COAST BASH(cause she ALREADY KNEW WHAT IT WAS AND HAS A SIGNED COPY OF KNOTT'S PRESERVED) add to that that she's VERY pretty and... but I'm an optimist. This is going to end in one of two ways, the end of the summer is either going to see me in the best mood I have ever been in cause if she wants to go out it would honestly probably been the best thing that's happened to me for the above mentioned reasons. OR I'll end up VERY DRUNK and kinda sad, but we'll see. Ugh, awesome people suck... lol,

A LOCAL FAVORITE- SUBURBAN LEGENDS- RUMP SHAKER Here's some awesome punk and ska... if I had to choose three I would kill myself, so here's a bunch of songs to get your skank/mosh on.

^ It really depends on how good of friends you are I think. Just ask her what she "wants to be" or thinks of you. Maybe she doesn't know that you like her that way... but there is also the chance that she just wants to be friends and you scare her off. Maybe I also shouldn't be giving advice at 3am... lol. Not in a relationship(yet) but I have a date on Wednesday at Disneyland! She is a Disney nerd and we have similar music taste(which is fairly rare in a girl considering I primarily listen to punk and ska) and I REALLY like her, probably a lot more than I should this early on, so I am REALLY hoping this leads somewhere. We have SO MUCH in common. Wish me luck, guys.

Ghost Gardens (RCT2)
the ghost replied to the ghost's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
So... this happened... Glad to say this is back. SCR167.BMP Bobcat, a terrain based Schwarzkopf charges through the woods. SCR176.BMP A closer look at Bobcat SCR173.BMP Serpentine is the newest coaster from Intamin AG... it is a bit more family oriented, sort of like Cheetah hunt, but it packs a punch. SCR174.BMP Some massive airtime here. SCR162.BMP Of course it wouldn't be am modern Intamin coaster without these highly banked turns... I find them to be quite fun. SCR166.BMP A Benihana's has been added to the park... a pretty cool addition as well as the parks priciest restaurant. SCR168.BMP And here's a bit of an updated shot of Laketown... including the parks new restaurant... The Lakeside Flyer(formerly the timber tornado) has been running amazingly lately. -
I have a date on Wednesday! Awesome!

I met someone last night at Disneyland! A bit odd considering it's not who I was talking to in my last post on this thread, but she's awesome and loves Disney and loves punk and ska and I got her number and we are planning a Disney date soon!

www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/jeff-foxworthy-blue-collar-comics-449084 I highlighted the parts I found particularly amusing, but yeah, this park is going to be KLASSY! Especially as it is literally themed around being a redneck, so I am assuming that some of the clientele are going to be rather terrifying. What do you guys think? I personally feel like this is going to be the carnival cruising equivalent of theme parks.

Very very early(too early to post in the relationships thread) but I've been talking to someone and she seems very cool. We both LOVE Disney, she likes/dresses rockabilly(which is a music I like and a look I LOVE) which is pretty bad ass(and compliments my punk rock preference) and we both really like standup/comedy in general, which is cool cause a lot of people like standup, but we both have favorite comedians that are not particularly mainstream. So far so good, hopefully this continues cause it's an online thing for now(she lives an hour or two away but she comes and visits down and visits often cause she has a Disneyland pass) so hopefully we're meeting at the 24 hour day!

Everything looks great! The song Man Overboard confused me though, lol. I think it's cause I've never heard of it and there is a band that is somewhat similar to Blink called Man Overboard so I wasn't sure who was going to sing it... lol. I like this though, not overly blocky which can be hard when building such large buildings. The only thing I'm not a huge fan of is the lime green roof for the picnic area, but that is admittedly me being very nitpicky.

[RCT3] Eurpa World
the ghost replied to nineflagsinc's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
It looks nice, but there's really not much to comment on. The triangle things are a bit odd... they're just sort of random and grey... not the prettiest entrance. Everything else is "pretty" though, but I'd recommend taking a break until you have more to add to the park. -
Supposedly they are limiting ticket sales, and I am not sure, but some pass restrictions would not surprise me. Rumor on a lot of Disney boards is that they have improved, but as they say... take with a grain of salt. Now... anyone want to meet up? I know there are a lot of TPR members that are passholders and a lot of sites have official(or in this case unofficial) meets... could be fun to hang out with some TPR members, especially as an Orlando crew seems pretty well established for Disneyworld, so I call TPR Best Coast Crew! ASSEMBLE! But seriously, if anyone wants to meet up for the 24 hour day post here.

Ejector air if it's comfortable. I live in California without much airtime so I don't know if I have experienced hardcore ejector airtime... I've never been on Maverick or Torro... but I LOVE the airtime on Tower of Terror... and I would classify part of that ride(second drop sequence, first "powered launch" on the California version) as pretty extreme ejector airtime. AND I LOVE IT!
