The Brochure/Map Trade Topic
Team Thriller replied to Reality15's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
My dad thinks I'm nuts, my mom though thinks it is cool that I collect brochures. I have most of them in one place. 1.) A shoe box full of maybe 200 2.) A suite case with maybe 300 3.) A binder with maybe about 50 4.) Another extra binder with maybe 80 5.) Many just scattered around my floor and house = 40 That is what 8 to 9 years of hard core collecting does to your room. I cannot imagine if they where all over the place. ANYWAYS, I'll be heading up to Heide Park next week, if anyone wants a park map for free, please just ask and I'll be happy to get one for you. --James -

How many times the same ride in a day ?
Team Thriller replied to mingsai's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I rode Ge Force 16 times in a row. Silver Star 20 times in a row Collosos 10 times in a row California Screamin 15 times in a row I think that is all the ones that stand out. --James -

Dear magical, majestical, mysterious, mind blowing Title Fairy. When you have the time, I would really appreciate a new title saying, "Full Fledged Queen enthusiast" Since Queen is my favorite pass time other than roller coasters. Thanks a million. --James

Bohemian Rhapsody is also my favorite. --James "Biggest Queen geek ever" Flint

I agree with everyone else. Before adding a new park, they should add more onto what they already have. I do think when they do need a new park, I would think it would be better to have it in another location. Maybe a Disney Park downunder? Or one a in Dubai. I don't think they need another Disney World park. --James

Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said
Team Thriller replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
She was actually correct. Ring Racer opens June 13th. It hasn't even had its test run yet. And I would love a teacher coming to me talking about roller coasters. I wouldn't find it funny, I would like it. --James -
Why don't you just stop going to them then? Up there where you are from you have Hershey Park, Knoebels, Kennywood...etc. I see some of the points you are saying, but you truly cannot say you want Six Flags to fail, when no one is forcing you to go. It's your opinion, but I just think Six Flags has been trying extremely hard to improve with the customers experience and what the parks have to offer. I think most general public people love the parks. I talk to tons of people and they always say how much they love the rides and the parks. They paint new rides, add restraunts, new games, new scenery...ect. I think they are some HUGE improvements. Like I said, it's your opinion, but I think you have to see how much they have been trying to improve and give them credit for it. Have you even been to most of the Six Flags parks. Just asking, cause you cannot judge all of them by one. Some are WAY better than others... --James

Medusa at SFDK wasn't rough at all if I remember. The only part of Silver Star that is rough is the bottom of the drop. Alpengiest was rough, but not brutal and painful. Riddler's Revenge was very smooth As was Batman: The Ride. Griffon is the smoother coaster I've ever been on Apollo's Chariot was also very smooth Those are just the main ones that stand out in my mind. But no, when I think of B&M, I think of how smooth they usually are. --James

wtf.... --James

I can say that, IMO, Blue Fire beats Colossus. Heide Park does have better flat rides. But Europa Parks quality makes up for it. Seriously, go to Europa Park if you cannot decide. Heide Park is really good, but I give the nod to Europa Park. --James

James' 09 Season
Team Thriller replied to Team Thriller's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Hey all, I went to Europa Park yesterday. Since it was a last minute invite by the friends, I had no time to go back home to get my camera or TPR shirt. Luckily, one of my friends had a camera and took some pictures. Even though they are all made more facebook, I decided to add them with my TR just for an extra. The day was fun even though the park was PACKED with french people We got to the park around an hour and a half after opening. Of course we went to Blue Fire first. Only to wait about an 1 and a half for the front seat. It was very fun riding with first time riders. They all agreed it is the best coaster in the park and I think all but one said it was better than Ge Force. Blue Fire was running amazing though. The preshow hasn't changed since the first day and the photo booth was also not set up. After Blue Fire we went over to Alpen Express since the all the lines got really long. The line for Alpen Express was about ten minutes, but since the weather was very hot outside, the tunnel felt very refreshing and made it worth the wait. Time to go over to Russia for some Euro Mir. The line was about 40 minutes but moved very fast. Euro Mir was running better than ever! It ran so good that one of my friends lost their cellphone on the ride. Luckily, it was still in the train when it fell out of her pocket, so we got it back. We ate lunch at Euromir Burger. Then decided to go ride Silver Star since it was midday and the lines would be shorter. Silver Star was running awesome. The new trains look sexy and the ride seems faster. The bottom of the first drop seems a little brutal, but nothing horrible. Eurosat was next. About a 20 minutes line. The first day this season, Eurosat was very brutal. Today was no exception. Luckily, the ride is still worth it and still very fun. We skipped Poseidon since that had a TWO hour wait. So we went over to Pegasus is that was pretty much a walk on. Great coaster. Even though it is very short. It is still very smooth and a fun ride. We then went over to Swiss Bobbahn for about a 20 minutes wait. This ride was running great and still the front is pretty intense. We then roe Blue Fire one more time. Next came the rapids. The only one who got soaked was Daniel, my brother, and Marissa, our family friend. After that, with all my intelligence, decided to get soaked by the splash zone by Atlantica Super Splash. I got soaked 5 times over! If I jumped in a river, I would have drier. We would have gone to Blue Fire last, but the line was THREE hours. So we decided to go ride the log flume instead, which was our last ride. Anyways, Europa Park, IMO, does the best job at moving lines. I had a great day! Thanks Europa Park! I end this with this picture I call: "Wet boy all alone" Thanks for reading! On the swings Very disturbing picture Agents on Euro Mir Thanks all for coming to my award ceremony! SkillZ zoom zoom zoom part 2 Zoom zoom zoom In line for Silver Star. We have to stand out as the weird americans weeeeeeeeee. You can spend all day on this thing. Daniel has a mouth full of heart attack It looks like I'm giving the figure. Congrats on her photo skills. This looks like something you would see on a movie poster. We saw this guy and figured he was pretty important. So I got a picture with him. Random picture. Gangstaz In line for Blue Fire. Daniel always finds a way to peek into the pictures.
