^ My computer's an old piece of junk anyway. I've backed up all my important files just in case conficker is real.

My computer has the WORST antivirus protection on the face of the earth. Just yesterday 20 different viruses that attacked my computer. One time, the Symantec Anti-Virus window popped up once every ten minutes to warn me of a viral infection. Today when the supposedly dangerous Conficker virus was supposed to infect every unprotected computer on the face of the earth, my computer was running fine. I was a little laggy this morning, but now its as fast as ever.

TPR and Theme Park Artwork

^ My parents thought I spent too much time here so they blocked it. I'm using a proxy server to get by, but its really slow at times. ^^ The first and second pics rock! You should post more if you can. I really wanna see more of the Joker pic as well. -

Those trains look really cool. They look like they provide an insane amount of freedom. Hopefully we'll see more of these at other parks especially in the US. -

^ Now is a pretty bad time to sell, considering almost all major regional park chains are considering selling off their parks. -

The OE logo is so cool! And it looks better than LNM. Too bad it was torn down. -
TPR and Theme Park Artwork

Dan's Theme Park Artwork Part 5 My parents blocked TPR with a firewall and using a proxy really slows my computer down, so I'll have to post the rest of my pictures on another site.http://smouch.net/lol/ The next update may probably be the last update I'll post on TPR at least until I can find a better, faster way around the firewall. I've posted tons of other pics there that I didn't post here. Here are some random old drawings that I had lying around. It'll hopefully keep you busy until the next update. Anyway I'll try to post close-ups of these pics so everyone can see the detail in the next update as well as some Six Flags Over Northwest pictures. - Dan "wish I was a hacker" Nguyen The same town that I posted above, it is slightly unfinished. This was made a few months ago. Another retro pic, I made this in sixth grade. This is my fourth oldest drawing. The others are either framed or too big to fit in my scanner. A picture of the same town that I made in seventh grade. Nobody taught me how to draw. This is a picture of a town I drew not too long ago. -

Never Gonna give you Up - Rick Astley

Alpengeist Its fast, fun, intense, disorienting. Granted I've never been on any other invert besides Alpengeist, this is my personal number 1 coaster and the best ride at BGE. Heck its the second-best themed coaster there, behind BBW of course.

Most Overrated coaster?
netdvn replied to BlackWidow's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
That comment pretty much proves my point. Even when Orient Express was still operating, nobody really talked about it. In fact, I only learned about OE recently. And lets consider the fact that an extremely large portion of the enthusiast community LOVES the ride. In fact, I've never heard a bad review of the ride, ever! There are enthusiasts in the world that don't really like MF, Toro, and SROS surprisingly enough. I've actually seen my share of "Toro didn't really live up to its hype" and "All MF really has is the first drop", but never "LNM is boring" or "They really need to de-brake this ride". -
Most Overrated coaster?
netdvn replied to BlackWidow's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The ride is fairly rough in the slower sections like the indoor helix. Personally, I think that the ride is only popular because it's located at a Busch park. If it were located anywhere else, it wouldn't be as well-recieved. For example, nobody talks much about Lightnin Loops or Orient Express, and those coasters had interlocking loops as well, but everybody talks about LNM. -

WOW the theming is impressive for a Six Flags coaster! -
Most Overrated coaster?
netdvn replied to BlackWidow's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I posted this in another topic... Loch Ness Monster -- Why does EVERYBODY love this ride? Its slow, its boring, its rough. 1. There's no pacing. Just when you think the ride is going to speed up, it hits the brakes, slowing the ride down, starting with that trim on the second drop. I really think one the trims and one of the block brakes need to be removed. 2. The tunnel is completely pointless. Its slow, rough, and boring. 3. The theme is pretty much nonexistent. Once you pass the entrance, the theme disappears. The station has zero ventilation so it becomes unbelievably hot warm days. 4. The only reason I tend to ride it is because the ride rarely has a line. The thing is, unlike rides like MF and KK, it seems that nobody dislikes this ride, making LNM the most overrated coaster. -

Most Overrated and Most Underrated Rides

The only reason I tend to ride it is because the ride rarely has a line. Most underrated... Alpengeist 1. The ride is actually intense! I found the transition between the first drop into the Immelmann, the cobra roll, and the zero g roll to be surprisingly intense. 2. The ride is disorienting. The transition between the Immelmann and the Loop is insane. 3. The ride is well themed. Compared to Apollo and Griffon, where the theme is nonexistent. 4. This is my current number one coaster.
