^ Agreed. And it's very probably that we may end up going back to some of the original designs for the final card.

^ It does...and we will continue to use it with some of our materials, but probably not something that will be seen by parks who have made comments on it in the past.

I agree - what is kind of a shame is that over the years we have actually had many people (senior management at parks, actually) suggest that the reason why we have used the donkey was a subliminal nod to the democratic party! It has NOTHING TO DO with anything political! And it's because of this is why we've kind of gotten away from it over the past couple of years. That being said, it is probably likely we will do another T-Shirt with the donkey on it, but it's not something we would probably incorporate into our Club TPR logos. --Robb "It's kind of unfortunate..." Alvey

^ No, not at all.

^ I do think that had we seen more revisions from you with our feedback it really could have stood out more. But as it is an actual photo won't work for the card (it just won't print well) and some of the elements were either too busy or just wouldn't quite work. But I did like the overall design and I *LOVE* the logo! --Robb

^ I have to be honest that I am leaning towards jcrouse's final entry as well, but there are a couple of things I'd like to see. For example, a version of his card that has: - Something "theme park related" as of right now there isn't much that says "theme parks and roller coasters." - Perhaps a version of his card with jds' logo That's about it, really. My top three are Angry Gumball, n7, and jcrouse with jds as a runner up for his logo (wasn't a fan of his actual card.) And I'm kind of bummed that n7 hasn't responded to the thread in over a week. What happened? I think his card has a lot of potential. --Robb

Time to unstick this... BTW, has anyone noticed the present is still there? http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=28 --Robb

Voting is now open! http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=53872 --Robb

IT'S VOTING TIME!!! Vote for your "Top Three" Favorite designs! First off, I want to send a huge THANK YOU to everyone that submitted a design. And even if you do not win this contest, please, if you are interested in helping out with other designs for the website (Site layout, T-Shirt logos, DVD covers, etc) please drop me a PM or an email and let me know! We may have other fun opportunities for you to help out! WE NEED YOUR FEEDBACK!!! Lots of it! Now that all the cards are together and easy to look at all once, please let us know things like "I'd really like to see the logo from Card A with the layout of Card B", etc, etc... If there are elements you really like, let us know as it's very likely we will combine designs to create our final card. To give you all a little update for Club TPR - we have heard back from about 15 different parks in Europe and the USA who are interested in giving our club members park discounts. We also have been told that our club members will be invited to HoliWood Nights, CoasterMania, and able to take part in the Kings Island morning walkbacks. I expect to have final details and roll out the club registration in early March. If you did not specify "official entry" on your card entry, I went with the latest one you submitted. Please remember that the final winner will be decided by Robb & Elissa. Again, everyone please vote for your top three favorites and give us your feedback!

Two things I love seeing - lots of pics of Liseberg and photos of random unknown parks! Thanks for posting these! Also, I loved the pics of the GIANT Sulcata Tortoises! OMG those things are MASSIVE!!!! --Robb

Really enjoying these updates! I find it amazing how much SCBB is able to pack into such a small space and keep it updated! --Robb

I also very much miss this area of the park. I really thought the entire pavillion was well done and all the attractions were great! Cranium Command will still be one of my favorite "Epcot Shows" and I think I'm most bummed out about losing that one. Body Wars was my favorite simulator (not sure why), but I liked it a lot more than Star Tours. And Making of Me was...well, funny for being very serious! --Robb

Yay! New GCI interns! --Robb "Gives TPR someone new to harass!" Alvey

Seriously though, I really think one of these books hasn't been printed lately because as soon as the ink hits the paper, it's outdated and all the up-to-date information is online. It's really hard to compete with the Internet on something like a reference book that is already out of date as soon as it hits the store shelves. --Robb

^ It's back in stock now.

It's called "The Internet."

Remember that TODAY is the last day to submit a design! --Robb

^ Yes. It costs $99 and you get a 24-DVD installment self-help program!

^ I don't have a release date for those sorry.

Yes, that is correct. The coaster footage disc takes me an additional 2-3 weeks to put together, and most of that footage is duplicated on "RAW" anyway. Most people say they seem to prefer RAW to the Footage discs, so why do double the work when that time could be better spent creating something new and different? --Robb

^ Thank you!

We have posted sample segments from them on the store order form, but here are three of them so you can get an idea of what they are like. Keep in mind that the 12 Footage DVDs contains over 400 different rides and roller coasters! SheiKra Coaster Footage Segment: Hades Coaster Footage Segment: The Voyage Coaster Footage Segment:

Our final update from Robb's Fantastic 40th Birthday TPR Cruise! Tonight was the final night of Robb's Fantastic 40th Birthday TPR Cruise...so let's PARTY!!!! Elissa rented out one of the venues on the ship just for our group... ...We had as much alcohol we could drink (which turns out was a LOT!) And of course there is food...lots of meat on sticks for the theme park geeks and posh little whores de ovaries like caviar and finger foods for those who wanted to pretend that we are classy. Drink up gents! The cruise is almost over! It looks like KidTums even had a lot to drink! But she only had apple juice and caviar! Why so serious? THIS IS A PARTY!!! YEAH! That's more like it! If you want to hug Ryan, text him at (559) 940-3525 and he will come to your house and give you a hug! "88 MILES PER HOUR!!!" "Wow! It really does smell like cookies. Oh, God! She farted and it went down my throat!" Now that's a mighty handsome looking threesome! OMG! WHERE IS JOEY'S HAND?!?!? BOOBIE RAPE!!!! Big Mike hanging out with some good friends. And now Elissa's mom is looking just a little bit nervous! BOOBIE RAPE!!! Yeah, this is another sexy looking threesome! Big Mike wants a little Elissa alone time! Screw that! Give me the birthday boy! (Or both of the Birthday boys!) Here is everyone who celebrated birthdays during this cruise. Awww, now that's so sweet. Robb & Elissa want to thank you all for reading through this huge update and joining us on our first ever TPR cruise! And special thanks to Elissa for planning all this as a surprise! Time for the first ever TPR Cruise Group Photo...hmm...something seems wrong with this picture.... THAT'S MORE LIKE IT!!!! Thanks everyone for following our TPR Cruise adventures!
