Well, I'm ok both ways. I like the music for the CE DVD's, but you shouldn't just take the music out for RAW, rather lengthen or shorten segments so that they go in good. For example, a few segments were good with or without the music, but a few segments were too short (namely ones showing banners or random ride moments, like Elissa on the Thomas ride, a few of the Dodonpa launch shots, and the guys with the funny expressions).

^^A splitting coaster is VERY VERY new technology that begins looking like a single train but usually splits off somewhere. They usually follow "mirrored" routes, but can take on completely different layouts. They can spin like X cars and are very much like them, but they face forwards in the beginning. Here's an example from the RCT3 Wild! Expansion Pack. The coaster looks similar to the X car but it can split into twisted layouts. The seats also spin, but are shown in upright position.

^What problems? Cost maybe, but Intamin has been a saving grace for CF parks, IMO! Look at how much Knotts improved with Xcelerator, they drew HUGE crowds for the opening day in 2002, and that has been the standout of the park! CF couldn't be any more of an "Intamin park" with 4 of them, and they all really helped CP gain it's 'runaway' success status as one of the top parks in the world. Heck, if it weren't for Intamin, CP wouldn't wouldn't be nearly as big as it is with them! I'm just stating what I think, but I think that most people will agree that, even with some technical problems that are expensive, they REALLY helped CF parks gain some good status.

^Yes or no questions. I think it's so that there aren't men looking over women's shoulders doing porno videos or something like that. Would be a perfect hooker's place. Have you been to more than 10 parks?
-
^Yeah, I agree. Not too much brighter, but just enough to make it stand out a bit more. EDIT: v Yeah, I guess a little bit simpler is better. Like the dashes too!

^LOL! I'll bring my cat down to California when I visit SFFM. Yes, I own a solar calculator. I have 2 actually, one doesn't work. It did a few problems incorrectly, so I threw it out. Do you like pie? If so, what kind?

^^^^I remember I felt the EXACT same way when I went on Dragster, and I remember feeling "Wow. Just...... WOW!!! I wanna' do it again! I was scared of that? That was awesome!" I went for the 1st time in the 2nd seat and (oddly enough) 2nd time in the 1st seat. So I definitely know how you feel! ^^^I remember when I rode X for the 1st (and only) time, I was like that. Sitting in the station next to my dad, the right side of the car, the big restraints over my whole upper stomach and the techno music blaring in your ears. Then, you go up the LOUD as heck lift, reach the top, and crap your pants! Sadly, I didn't get to ride it in 2007 (literally, right before it closed to become X2) on my last trip to SFMM. Sigh, if only I hadn't ridden Tatsu right before that, I would have done it. Well, you can't do 'em all. ^^LOL! I remember I was like that when I rode my first (I think) coaster at the Puyallup Fair here in Washington. ^Hmmm...... That would be the ultimate date, a trip to Alton Towers for her 1st coaster. A lot of gentleness there!

Hey everybody! As the title says, I was wondering what your favorite coaster moment is. Many people who go to theme parks have had at least one funny, cool, close, scary, special, or otherwise notable moment on a coaster. What's yours? Mine is when I was riding Steel Eel at Sea World Texas. When I was riding with my dad in the front seat, we had taken our walkie talkies out for a photo pose (Don't worry, the park let us). If you've seen the layout of SE, you probably know that there are some small bunny hills right before the brakes at the end. As we went around the last corner, I dropped mine onto the floor. Frantically, I tried to grab it, but the airtime made it float! I managed to get it back before it blew away, and it has always been a cool moment ever since!

Yes, when I went to Cedar Point. Not "As we Pulled into the parking lot," but just as we got on Millennium Force, our first ride of our 2nd day at the park. Are you alergic to anything? If so, name it.

I love it! Nice choice Robb. Maybe a 'lil more to the background (Like one of the coaster tracks in the back) would make it better, but I'm happy with this one!

Photo TR: Six Flags Over Georgia

Yeah, I hope I can go there someday! Looks like a pretty fun park to me. -
I sent him a PM and he told me these things: By "no launched coasters," he just means no "really fast" launched coasters, like an Air Powered coaster or a Stormrunner. He said you were allowed to landscape. And, also, 1 of the major thrill rides MUST be built by S&S, like the launched tower or the Sky Swat or the Sky Sling.

My spring break doesn't start 'till April, but I *may* be able to get a park credit sometime around that.

^^When we say testing as in full circit runs, we mean "The coaster is operating, but just to see if the track is clear/safe. Nobody is onboard and the ride is just "warming up" so to speak." A lot of people just refer to it that way. I think you mean testing as in testing to see if the track is in good condition and if it is ready to be ridden on, am I right?
