^ Well, based off how many people on FB use these annoying applications, I don't think it will be long till you have like two friends left.
Fine by me! I'd rather have two friends that don't annoy me than 1,000 friends who do.
I've just blocked two more people from my Facebook and sent them this note:
I have blocked you for using the "Top Secret" application. It's nothing personal, I just don't want the crap on my wall anymore and there is no way that I can find to block the appllication, so I have no other choice but to block the user.--Robb
IDK, Maybe you should just close your account? ...it seems kinda dumb to have a Facebook account if you don't like Facebook 101.
To tell you the truth though, I am awfully saddened by your aforementioned attitude and actions, kinda' like a kid finding out that superman is really just a big jurk. Hay don't worry about it though, i'm gonna remove myself from your friends list prematurely! To help ya out... You know, In anticipation of you removing me (and insulting me, no doubt) for some ridiculous and 'out of my control' reason.
Coincidentally, I think ALL OF YOU need to check out that webpage posted earlier....

Thanks for the Info, I always wondered what exactly was the reason for them taking it down. I've seen pictures of this coaster quite awhile ago but never knew any info on it surrounding its "dismay."
There are more picture of the coaster on Michael Pantenburg's 'Fotoarchiv,' some will notice Michael Pantenburg as the creator of "Schwarzkopf Coaster Net." A Schwarzkopf fan's heaven!
(Also cheack out http://schwarzkopf.coaster.net/ if you haven't yet.)

T-Express looks like a kick-a$$ ride! As you said yourself, Robb, a prefab woody is still a woody.
A prefab woody is still a woody in the same way breasts w/implants are still breasts.
-
Oh that's good. I bet it will start rumors though. I already hear a rumor that someone died on it. LOL
-
After more review I guess not all boomerangs have walkways in the cobra roll.
But a lot have been recently added.
I still would hot want anyone at Silverwood to get stuck on a cobra roll... that high, just because the park did not build a platform! Especially when where was one on it at SFMM.
-
Don't Vekoma's Boomeranges have a tendency to get stuck in the Cobra Roll?
...That's why you see a lot of them with stairs. DejaVu had them!
-
Watch out for low flying roller coasters!
!!!Duck!!!
-
Okay, So now that Aftershock is all set up and everything. Dose anybody notice something missing?
Err... Uhaa ho!
Check out this video of "Dejashock," LOL. @
Notice anything odd (comparatively) at 00:29 seconds?
(Go ahead and look at a DejaVu video!)
...That just scares me. Silverwood! Have you even been paying attention?
"Let me out!"
-
Believe me, it's five full hours from where I am here in Seattle out to where Silverwood is, and there isn't much between here and there.
LOL, Ya not much at all!
-
...But I also love when a coaster lunches in to a tunnel and drops in the dark right off the station. Like on an old Woodie.
-
Well not being a stinker, I would to say I like Arrow better. The last Arrow roller coaster I rode (Viper, sfMM) was still awesome even after so many years. I think Arrow has contributed more to the 'coaster scene' anyway.
Witch one is rougher? Can't say.
-
I like Phoenix's tunnel during night ERT when everyone has glowsticks.
We can't all be that lucky!
-
The first one on Tremors is freaking awesome, although the 2nd one you enter during airtime.
-
You coaster elitists!
Go back to your cookie cutter B&Ms and, AquaTrax (Sans-Aqua) Intamin's; leave use alone to our originality and tenaciousness.
(I would have voted but you can't vote for B&M)
-
I still think the thing looks unstable.
-
What is the point of the water being sprayed on the "Trax" again? Such a Tease!
'Really? You might as well tern it off, I'm not getting wet!' (Do you at-least get a fine mist?)
This whole Maverick/Aquatrax theory makes since when you think about how the trains would have complimented the "riding a horse" theme (read: logo).
Hay, who knows, maybe some day they will use Aqua trains.

"He designed pretty much every single Schwarzkopf layout."
How do you know this?
"They even provided many lists, statistics, dates, etc. themselves."
Was that just in the last 2 years?
...lol, next you'll be telling me he also did the calculation for every RCT coaster made... Maybe he even invented hot dogs...
I'm not disputing you here, I'm simply tiring to make the argument that his designs had not been properly credited until recently. ...or... It's a big conspiracy... (You know I don't think his name is even mentioned in the coaster book I have under the Schwarzkopf section. The big blue one that every coaster buff has.)
-
A wooden coaster without roughness is like a Long Island Ice Tea without alcohol... It's Just silly!
-
Oh, Batman was a walk on. They told use to go though the exit, we just walked up and they asked our names and put us in the front seat. 5-Min... At the time I remember thinking Cyclone was WAY smoother than Batman.
-
^This was pre-Superman (The Ride) so... It was the closest coaster we could find.
1998 i think.
-
My worst coaster experience was probably Psyclone at SFMM. Good thing it's gone now, because I hated that ride. That was probably my first full SFMM experience too. Me and my friend nicknamed it "Dieclone."
(Hey, I was a little kid!)
How could you say that... mutinay!
Anyway...
Lets see. First time at SFMM, First ride of the day (prime roller coaster riding time,) Ninja, Got stuck on the last brake run for about an hour. It was cool though because they let use choose any ride at the park and walk on... chose Batman the Ride, I was so glad I did B/C it would not have been worth the wait.
offtopic... @ zeke11793... Justice Rocks!

What one of my friends said to me earlier:
"Hey Nick, did you hear about the kid that got decapitated at Darien Lake? He was climbing a fence. How do you get decapitated climbing a fence?"
-Nick
I could show you a picture... you might puke though.

He's always been credited as the main designer of Son of Beast which was built in 2000. The first time I really heard his name was 1999 or 2000 - right around when Intamin started designing their own rides, but I know he's obviously been around much longer than that.
While he designs rides, I don't think he actually comes up with the layouts. Intamin and B&M layouts are very different (as most people can see). I believe his company does more of the force calculations than the actual design or layouts.
He was responsible for the plug and play wooden coasters. After SOB opened he realized that no matter what they tried, large wooden coasters weren't going to work unless they changed construction methods.
Another interesting thing is I saw another interview with him years ago that said the design for Revolution originally started out for Kings Island. Kings Island wanted the first looping coaster.
Oh okay. I was thinking layout wise. I was gonna say, that pretty much puts him at god status in my book... as far as steel gos. I can understand one person doing the math side of thing, but for simple layout that's quite a lot.
...I like coasters to interact with the terrain personaly, that's why I hate dislike B&M designs. No soul, cookie cutter layouts and elements.
...coasterguy618... it was the tone in your... type. LOL Sorry dude.

Rain is not fun on a day at the park. At least they will run one train. I don't know maybe it would improve some rides?
