This should be AWESOME as I will(hopefully) get to meet a few new TPR people. I will(probably like quite a few others) be wearing my WCB Windseeker shirt! Very cool to finally get to ride after all the time and hype! YAY! Now that I think about it I can FINALLY get the kiddie credit... I think it will be #49 and then green lantern can be 50! Woot!

I'm in such a GREAT mood right now. I've had a bit of a stressful week with school starting and everything... but tomorrow I am getting my Disneyland pass renewed... and I am VERY happy about that. Disneyland is... as weird as it sounds... pretty much my second home... I go pretty much weekly or at least every other week. In other words I'm Brer Rabbit and Disneyland is my laughing place.

^It's like @ WCB last year at SFMM where during Q&A someone asks "which group do you like better, TPR or ACE?" I'm terrible with names, but one of the two guys pretty blatantly said "Theme Park Review" and got massive cheers. Of course, he could just be saying that... but I imagine a HUGE enthusiastic group of people are more fun to hang out with than a large group of ACERs. Honestly I feel like I wouldn't be NEARLY as much into parks, and I ABSOLUTELY wouldn't know all the awesome people I've met from this site. The TPR>ACE Ghost

Heres my take on the issue. CS is a GREAT tool if you know how to use it well. For example, I am new to the RCT3 realm... I still like playing 2 quite a bit, but I see myself playing 3 more and more often, and as said with 2 I will wait til I get better before I go insane. In 2 I hardly hack, and I believe I would be considered more of a NCSO player rather than a CS player. THAT BEING SAID IF YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH BY ALL MEANS USE CS! Look at Liams work if you haven't already! themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=59053 This is CS usage at it's best and simply couldn't be achieved with CS. The only way to get truly great at these games is to build and build and build... thats it. I remember a year or two ago thinking I was using "advanced concepts" and it makes me laugh at myself even when I look at how much I have improved over the last year. You need to build and practice with different sets, CS or NCS, but experiment until you find something you like and develop a style. For example, Socal is a good NCSO designer and he tends to build relatively realistic parks... that is his style. At the same time someone who builds a crazy elaborate dark ride has a different style... he's just using whatever he can to make the most impressive things. At the end of the day CS and NCSO are just pieces of scenery... and IMO it's not the individual pieces of scenery that is important... what is important is what they become when put together.

This is sorta sad... but I could see myself getting REALLY into Vinylmation soon. The new sets are AWESOME! Frankenstein and Bride of Frankenstein Mickey and Minnie! Disney Afterneen series featuring the Rescue Rangers and Darkwing Duck?!?! I'm in LOVE! AWESOME! Also Haunted Mansions coming soon... now I just need some money!

I watched Trainspotting last night. Very very strange but brilliant film about heroin addiction that is very effective. It is a dramedy in every right because some of the dialogue is quite sharp and there are a few funny scenes, but some of the movie was also VERY disturbing and even kind of scary... I don't want to give anything away, but I'd HIGHLY suggest a watch... it's on netflix instant!

It hasn't been officially announced yet, but currently pretty much ALL SIGNS point to a La Lorena house which is AWESOME considering it will be an original house. The facade(Shrek que) is a church which is mexican in style. Also he has "opened the window" and we have actually done quite well so far. No guaranties, but expect La Lorena in Shrek que. Now for the "real news." The Eyegore films are up for voting on the site! www.halloweenhorrornights.com/hollywood/2011/film_contest.php

Canada's Wonderland Discussion Thread
the ghost replied to BDG's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I am trying to decide if I like this or not... kinda similar to Behemoth... but maybe different enough... I just really don't see the point. Also, off topic the mods here RULE! I was about to give that dude a piece of my mind in this thread but his posts were deleted... not that it's hard to find stupid spammers/haters, but thanks for finding them so quickly!
