Okay, I have 42 pictures to upload. I will upload them 7 at a time. Expedition Expedition's pre-lift madness, and Super Wheelchuck's second hill. Expedition Expedition. It pwns The Voyage. Launched Coaster, Other Launched Coaster, and The Smallest Dive Machine. Mt. Terrain Looper. A junior floorless. Vekomaland. Seven Vekomas in one area. Werewolf's station. It is lit inside.

Pizza. What is Boot Rear?

Do you know about the "xyzzy" cheat?

The names are supposed to be ridiculous. That's the point. In fact, Expedition Expedition (a GG woodie that pwns the Voyage) took longer to name than to ride. I have to come up with silly names, because the park is intended to be a parody of amusement parks. I created an out-and-back Intamin wooden coaster called Intamin Woodie. The World's Smallest Coaster is 3 feet high and includes an in-line twist. And my launched coasters: Launched Coaster and Other Launched Coaster. I chose the names to produce laughs. Flight of the Vekoma. Super Wheelchuck (a Morgan hyper). Mt. Terrain (an area of the park). Suspended Nonlooping Coaster. Waluigi's Mansion (a dark ride). Hyakugojyuuichi Jr. (A 90-foot B&M 7-looper.) The Smallest Dive Machine. I get bored themeing, so I create silly names. You can hate the parks if you want, but I will simply keep churning them out. That's tenacity for you.

Eejanika -same park -same manufacturer -90 degree drop -second of its type -both built 5 years after another coaster in the same park -both look screwed up -both bigger models of the first prototype -both look awesome

Still don't have pictures, but I added a Gravity Group woodie called The Trip. The name looked better than Expedition Expedition on the huge signs. Actually, I think Expedition Expedition is funnier, so I will go change it. Two other rides: a dark-ride (gasp) called Waluigi's Mansion and a stand-up 11-looper called Hyakugojyuuichi Forever!!! (Yes, there is a triple bang there.)

Well, I'm glad to see that you have your priorities straight. Just for that, I'm going to add more unthemed coasters to the third take. Seriously, I do have a dark-ride called Waluigi's Mansion. (I like Waluigi.)

Unfortunately, due to a mix-up, TSF was overwritten.

Agreed.

I prefer "Gryphon", but to each his or her own. Python", "Scorpion", and "Apollo's Chariot" are the worst names in the Busch chain. Speaking of Busch Gardens, is there a reason why the kiddie lands do not have rides?

By "not good" I mean "the park will look better without themeing".

What about Dodonpa? You may not ride if... You have recently swallowed a bowling ball... You fall asleep at school.. You are about to hit yourself in the head with a hammer... You are part of a robot army... You are old.

My theory is that they are locked by a huge clamp or something.

Correct. Now it is your turn to come up with a list. (By the way, it is a complete list, as far as I know, of adult coasters with multiple lifts.)

Right. Let's see you design a well-themed park in RCT2 with reasonable restrictions... 1) You may only work for one hour a day. 2) You must finish in a month. Seriously, it does take skill to build coasters the way I do. Try stuffing 7 full-size coasters (four of them more than a mile long) into a 50x50 area. Try creating a synchronized 580-foot dueling hyper. Try creating a mile-long spaghetti bowl. Try doing all of the above on one hour a day. I work hard at this. I post my sweat and tears up, hoping someone... anyone... will notice my design techniques. I wait for replies. And what do I get? I sometimes wonder if the entire world wants me to die. It makes me just want to stop playing RCT2 altogether. Imagine if you struggle at something, try to perfect it, timidly show your day's output, and then are treated like the stuff on the bottom of one's shoe. I'm good at coasters. I'm bad at themeing. I am not coasterdude5. Nobody seems to realize this. You make blanket judgements just because you disapprove of the way I build my creations. If that is the case, you theme my parks. You do the work you so love to do. I can criticize the way you do things. No, you wouldn't want that, would you? Too much work. It's easier to tear someone else's pride and joy apart. Admittedly, my rudimentary themeing is an easy target, but I feel as if you are tearing me apart. I'm very sensitive, and I don't like people saying that my creative output is crap. It's not Geboldi. It's not Disney. It's not Alton Towers. But it's not just something reamed out in a minute, or even ten minutes. Nobody notices the good things about my parks. Nobody compliments me. Nobody even cares about the fact that I spend time every day trying to improve my skills. All you care about is your little vendetta against me. RollerCoaster Tycoon is supposed to be a game. It's supposed to be fun. You act like it's a personal insult when someone submits something imperfect. Is it a personal insult? Do you feel that everyone should be perfect on their first try, their second try, or even their fiftieth? I am not perfect. I am not stellar at the game. I am simply a struggling artist, seeking approval of his works. Do you feel that everyone should create Geboldi Parks? Or are you simply a no-talent hack, content to shred the egos of anyone who does not live up to your ideals? Do you hate me? Do you hate my work? Do hate the way my mind works? No? Good. I try to do something good, and I am treated like I am worthless. I am not worthless. I simply am trying to have fun at the game. I enjoy building coasters. I enjoy seeing my park rating stuck at 999. I enjoy seeing $30,000+ monthly profits. I don't think I will ever design theme parks for a living. I just want to enjoy myself. Everyone does. I cannot enjoy myself if people like you dismiss my ideas as "just stupid". I have owned RCT since it came out. I'm still trying to become good. Perhaps it is a lost cause, and I should just delete the game off my PC. Perhaps I should give up being a coaster enthusiast. Perhaps I should forget about ever aspiring to be anything, just because I cannot theme my parks. Of course, that would be silly. I should not let a game take over my life. You seem to think that I should let it take over my life. If I do that, I will become a homeless bum, unable to afford food, but who can theme RCT2 parks. I choose to further my education at the expense of moving little animated walls around. Do you do this? Do you prioritize? Or do you not even own any RollerCoaster Tycoon games, yet still ruin the lives of people audacious enough to actually spend time on something they need to improve? I like my parks. I don't care if they are well-themed or not. I know that I will never be as good as coasterdude5, kennywood!007, or even Timothy Allan Fort. But I do have the courage to attempt to show my parks, pitiful though they may be, to people. In that respect, I am superior to you. You don't have the courage to show material that you have not worked for months on. So comparing my humble creations to Geboldi parks is like comparing apples to sidewalks. There is nothing in common. All I ask is that someone will appreciate my limited talent.

Here is how this works. You list a series of coasters (or parks) that have something in common and then everyone tries to guess what it is they have in common. For example: Cedar Point Six Flags Great Adventure Thorpe Park Liseberg could be answered in two ways: 1) They all have an Intamin Rocket Coaster 2) They all have more than one Intamin So: What do these have in common? Ultimate @ Lightwater Valley Daidarasaurus @ Expoland The Beast @ PKI Big Bad Wolf @ BGE Ninja @ SFMM Iron Dragon @ Cedar Point The TOGO Looping Mouse @ Tobu Zoo Dragon @ Ocean View Park XLR-8 @ SFAW Vampire @ Chessington Cop Car Chase @ MPG

Why do people assume that the "Superman" or "Batman" coaster nearest them is the only one in the world? Whenever someone asks me, "Have you ridden (insert name of coaster that is in more than one location)?" I answer, "Which one?" (This usually is answered by, "The one at Six Flags," to which I answer, "Which Six Flags?" They answer, "Six Flags (wherever)." "Aaah... (yes or no, depending on if I have ridden the coaster in question).")

I sense that people just don't like me.

This project has been cancelled due to people complaining about themeing. I might just never post another park again. However, I do have some complaints about people complaining about my parks. About the high loop: You try making a 150' loop without an inordinately long ramp. Windows: Adding windows to tunnels is a bad idea. The purpose of a tunnel is to provide darkness. Imagine if the tunnels of Hades or the Voyage were given glass roofs. It would ruin the effect, wouldn't it? I can't design Geboldi parks. I can't spend hours on one building. I can't theme coasters well. I can't terrain well. I can design bad-ass coasters. So attempting to force me to do these things is like asking coasterdude5 to create a custom ride that duplicates the Cantilevered Roller Coaster, or asking Pinfari to design a smooth 7-looper, or asking Bolliger and Mabillard to build a launched gigacoaster. It's not going to happen. So tell me, why do you insist on squezing blood out of a turnip?

How come this never happens to me?

Meteos. I once spent all night playing it.

383rd post!

One day at SFNE... We get there before the park opens, so of course we stand around waiting for them to move the rope. Then they did this annoying show with the characters. Finally, they let us in. I started dragging my friend to Superman. As luck would have it, my sister got on the first train and managed to point this out at least 5 times. Anyhoo, SROS was my friend's first hyper... and his first coaster above 100 feet... and his first steel coaster... yeah. That was some really good on-ride entertainment. When we got off, we hiked over to pop Steven's SLC cherry. We rode in the front of the first train of the day. Funny... it was rougher last year. After that, we rode Batman (which Steven compared favorably to the SLC (no surprise there)), and then went to the Tivoli. Now, for those of you who have not seen the Tivoli trains, they are way too long. Like 20 rows. Sitting in the front, you decelerate down hills and accelerate up hills. As we got off, a kid sitting 5 rows behind us whined about the line. I looked at the line and thought, "WTF? That's about half a train!" So we went over to the Boomerang, which was closed. It opened later, but first we gotta get to the rapids ride. As before, a kid said that I was going to go under the waterfall, and this time he was right. He went under too, though. Freshly soaked, we headed to Pandemonium, where Steven had a lot of fun. Then we went to ride Cyclone. Here is one of the big "WTF" moments. We rode in the back car, middle seat. The ride seems to be pissed at something, because it was emitting a really high-pitched noise, and the fifth drop was a doozy. Ejector air, and then it felt like being strapped to a jackhammer. On the way back to Superman, an insect flew up my nose. After utterly failing to force Steven to go on the kiddy coaster, we headed to lunch. Lunch was boring, and Steven was slow. So I rode the George Foreman Grill ride. And I spent like 10 minutes waiting for it to go. After that, we rode Superman again, Batman again, and then I heard a "kerchunk". I dragged Steven to Flashback. Steven refused to go on it. So I went on. After a minor altercation over claim of the front seat (which I won), I got in and waited for the coaster to go. And waited. And waited. Soon, the ride op walked towards the back of the train. I managed to turn far enough to look behind me (not an easy feat on a Boomerang) and heard something about (get this) someone refusing to use the restraints. So I waited for like forever in the uncomfortable train, and finally we started. The Flashback hurt like hell. On the way back, a visor flew off Pandemonium and landed in the middle of the ride. Steven and I then rode the Shoot-the-Chutes, Batman (again), and then I went on Superman alone. And as I was waiting for the ride, I saw my calculus teacher on the coaster. After the ride, I had to go home.
