SLC'S?
zburns999 replied to coaster_type_of_person's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'm with coaster_type_of_person, I've never been on one either. Really, I've only been to one park that has one (Darien Lake), and it was closed when I went. According to my friend, "The Mindy Racer was closed because it got stuck upside down too many times." He also said that Predator's chain snapped and everyones necks broke, and on opening day, a guy died on Boomerang. -
Anyone played "The Bible Game" video game?
zburns999 replied to BarryH's topic in Random, Random, Random
Seems like something Rodd and Todd Flanders would play. -
I havn't bothered to ask Steve about it because I would imagine with him being away, it would be Brandon or Dan getting the site back up. By the way ncf, has it really been 2 weeks? I don't remember it being that long, but it does feel like forever.

Goal: Save Libertyland
zburns999 replied to coasterdude5's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Wow, where have I been. I thought that LibertyLand had already been condemned and destroyed. However, if its still up, what can I say? Save the place! Its always sad to see a park's life end, so anyway to stop it (or at least try) is a good thing. -
Well, its about time I finally saw this... I guess I can see the sequel now, or at least see the DVD.

Roller Coaster Game
zburns999 replied to RCT3Freak's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
^I've found that games like this are ok every once in a while, but there is always that one (or sometimes a few) posters who take total advantage, and somehow boost their counts up like 400 posts in a matter of a week. So far, I don't see anyone like that in this thread, so I see no harm in it. -

^I can't see myself losing interest in coasters. It's like what defines me. Running, and COASTERS. -
Same here! :shock: Same here. I'ts not like I'm going to get it the first day its released anyway. I think I can last one more year with my PS2.

There must be at least four Burns's that teach in my school district, and that's NOT including my mom.

The Revolution--back in the day
zburns999 replied to coasterboy76's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^Maybe they can pull a Sooperdooperlooper and just repaint the track and not the supports, resulting in nice bright blue for the supports under the track, and some old green paint on the supports. -
Dragon Flies-I HATE dragon flies. They scare the crap out of me. They are loud and some are HUGE. Over the summer when we were camping in Canada, we had the window open, and one flew right into the back seat, where I was sitting. I really hate those things so I freaked out and unbuckled my seatbelt and stood up. WE couldn't find the thing for a while, but we finally found it under the seat, and then it flew out. It was huge and nasty. BatsHonestly, I have never hated bats before, but just a few weeks ago one flew past my friends face and clipped my shirt. It was really odd. SpidersI can't stand spiders, because of one incident. There was a Wolf Spider on the wall in my sisters room that was really the size of a fist. My mom was terrified so she called my neighbor, who came with a fly swatter. He saw the spider and exclaimed "I should have brought a pistol!" He then went home and got some spray and sprayed the crap outta that spider and then crushed it.

^Hmmm, I'm really stupid. I always wondered who Bethany and Dallas were.

Hersheypark (HP) Discussion Thread
zburns999 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^Yeah, but I heard something like its a big anniversary for Hershey (50 years maybe, not quite sure) and they were going to do something big. However, I guess a water park is big, so the rumor was correct. As I said, I've never been a water park fan, but this could help lower crowds! By the way, does anyone else think that Hershey is going in the wrong direction with this waterpark? I'm still unsure about R:XCC, but the addition of a waterpark makes me wonder what future plans they have for the park. -
Yes. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! Starting tonight, I'm not going to eat anything untill Thanksgiving dinner. I want to consume twice my body weight in turkey

S&S Sansei Discussion Thread
zburns999 replied to Coaster Joe's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Is the compressed air system just as reliable as magnetic systems? Honestly, I don't know if I would ride it. It just doesn't look safe. The worst part is that you have to press a button to make it drop. Could you imagine if this was at a park? Someone could have a panic attack at the top. How would they get down and not hold up the line? I understand that this wasn't built to sell, but its just an observation. -
The Jaws one wins by far!

Hersheypark (HP) Discussion Thread
zburns999 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Waterpark!?!? I thought the new for 07' thing was going to be a big coaster. Oh well, with any luck, this will lessen lines and crowds in the rest of the park. -
Statistics Are Back!!!
zburns999 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ I agree. I don't remember where I saw this, but on RCPro I only averaged 3-5 posts per day. I mean, literally, that is 10-15 minutes of time before I go to sleep, while on other days, I might hang around the forums for hours. It just depends on whats going on. Like right now, I've got a lot of free time -
Honestly, I can't stand reading things that are assigned to me. I just can't be forced to read. That is where spark notes comes in handy. Got me an A on my summer reading test 8)

Well, while RCPro is down, I'll be posting here a LOT more. I need to find a way to keep busy. -
Can you give us a hint. Wood or Steel would be good, because it seems as though we still havn't figured that out.

The "Disney-Magic" that TPR built!
zburns999 replied to Mr.Six's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Man, too bad I'm in the middle of a big RCT2 project myself. I'll see if I can take some time off from that and take a turn. I really enjoyed watching the progress of the last "park that TPR built," although, I feel that as it went on, its quality lowered, because everyone was building coasters wherever there was a tiny bit of space. Remember, Disney is not usually big on the coasters. Anyway, I can't wait for a turn! -
Coaster Enthusiast Experiment
zburns999 replied to zburns999's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^Yea, but you have to know something about coasters to be good at RCT2. I mean, my friends have it and their coasters have un-banked turns, 200 foot drops followed by corkscrews, and footpaths that rise up 50 feet in the air for no reason whatsoever. -

zburns999 replied to zburns999's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^You should see my note books for school. There must be about an average of three designs for coaster layouts on each page. If I like the design, I sometimes design a whole park around it. My friends and other kids laugh and think I'm insane. -
Montezooma's Revenge Video
zburns999 replied to Twister II's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Haha. Isn't it odd. RCPro being hacked in late july-early August is what made me join the forums here (I'm glad I did!). I see the same happened to you euphoric Anyway, back on topic.
