I think many people confuse the fact that "I don't rank Voyage as #1" as "distaste." I (and a few others here) just don't simply like it as much as others do. It's not like we are ranking it in our worst woodies ever, I just personally think it's not as amazing as others make it out to be. I have it ranked as #30 out of 163 woodies. That's still pretty darn high up my list! I far prefer some of Gravity Group's other work, like Ravine Flyer II, Hades, and Fireball. It's just simply not my type of ride, but Raven is. I can't really explain it, it's just my opinion. --Robb "I don't understand how people like country music...but they do!" Alvey

^ I think they mean more in general, but probably a bit skewed to woodies since that's the poll. But if you look at some of the questions, like if you prefer inversions, obviously it can't be just woodies. --Robb

Here's my bottom list: Stampida White Canyon Jupiter Twister II The Bandit Magnus Colossus Predator Coaster-Express Sierra Tonante Colossus Anaconda GhostRider Son of Beast (SBNO) The Grizzly

^ You should really read the idiot's guide then! http://www.themeparkreview.com/mitch.htm

Wow, this hands down wins the "Nerdiest Coaster/Theme Park thing you've done."

Here's what I came up with for my top ten: 1 . T Express 1 . Balder 2 . My Favorite Steel 3 . El Toro 4 . Phoenix 5 . Boulder Dash 6 . Colossos 7 . Ravine Flyer II 8 . Raven 9 . Tonnerre de Zeus 10 . Fireball

Just finished my ballot. Took me about 10 minutes.... if that. And I had 163 woodies on my list. --Robb

BONUS CRAP FOR YOU!!!

Oh well....Lightning Bolt will once again sit to rot away. Hopefully something can be done with that ride because, for what it was, actually was pretty decent! --Robb

Everytime this thread gets bumped it makes me smile when I see it. Don't know why. It just does!

Yeah, but you WORK AT A PARK! So that means you're just simply not as cool. --Robb

^ Oddly enough The Aquabats just recently played this summer, and I think they are on par from when I saw Oingo Boingo or Wall of Voodoo at the Mountain back in the 80s. --Robb

^ Wes, that is a very rude thing to say to someone who GETS TO RIDE A B&M EVERY SINGLE DAY AND DOESN'T WORK AT A PARK! I think you're jealous. --Robb

Hmm...so this isn't an official app from the park? I think I'd be a little cautious trusting wait times based on rider input. It would be nice to see something like this that is an official app from the park that takes the wait times from the board on Main Street. And even that isn't always accurate... --Robb

^ It's a $10 flat rate for shipping to Europe. No matter how many items you buy. --Robb

^ Agreed. Unless someone wants to run the place to launder money, I seriously think this is the end. Give it up. No one wants this park. Like, NO ONE! How many times can a park fail before they will figure this out? --Robb
