Theme Park/Rollercoaster Documentaries
netdvn replied to andyuk200523's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
This video has everything. TPR-style speculation (5:45 -5:47), threatening mail, and construction/testing. A really cool video overall. -
The Target that I know of isn't a grocery store. Its more of a big box retailer like Wal-Mart and K-Mart. Rant - Never take a 5 week course. Especially if big assignments (like speeches) are involved. I have to prepare a speech, take a midterm, finish a homework assignment for my English class, and start my English final in the SAME WEEK. The only upside is that I'm trading (and recieving) a ton of theme park brochures this week.

I used to have a Bugs Bunny and Barney stuffed animal I would sleep with, but not anymore. Are you taking summer classes?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ba8vo6cVrRI WARNING: This video IS 24 minutes long, but features some great retro DL footage as well as Disney's ambitious WDW/EPCOT plans. I'll post more when I find them... -
Name That Park!!
netdvn replied to CoasterExpert13's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^ BINGO! ^ It was at a chain of parks with the same name. The ride is Yankee Clipper at CGA (which is why it looked like SFGAm's Yankee Clipper) Original Pic... Your turn Mr. Starr... -

Name That Park!!
netdvn replied to CoasterExpert13's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Its been 24 hours and nobody's guessed it correctly so I'll give you a hint. The park is still operating. ... and please keep in mind that location is key. -
Last time I checked, I had around 165 songs out of 4 gigs total. I have around 50-100 songs stored on my computer that I haven't transferred yet, so once I do that, I'll have over 200 songs... Pretty pitiful compared to everyone elses iPods though.

Here's an easy one. I'm not giving any hints. PS: You have to give the location of this park as well. The pic DID have a watermark. -
Thunder Lakes - RCT2
netdvn replied to dmaxsba2408's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
I honestly cannot find anything negative to say... You managed to build a huge, heavily themed park on only the theming included in the game and I'm very impressed. The ride designs are incredible and overall, I'm pretty much blown away by it all. I'm still speechless. -
I can't find my phone. Watching Flash videos when using a proxy really sucks. Ring Are the Rings up yet? I've never gotten stuck in a Locker before.

Dan's Theme Park Artwork Still trying to get the next update finished. In the meantime, I dug up another old map I made about two years ago. I'm actually working on multiple updates right now. Six Flags Over Northwest ... Again sorry for the awful lighting on some of them. Stuff in the righthand corner... Close up 2... The orange thing was for school. Close up 1... With better lighting.

^ I don't think paranoid soccer moms would be worried about bringing an old attraction back from the dead (no pun intended) to honor MJ. I see this as a great idea if Disney can get past all the legal stuff. They can rake in a few extra dollars and guests can re-experience an old attraction. I'm pretty sure it would make MJ fans happy as well.

^ Classic... Today my mom wanted to purchase coffee so I asked her whether she wanted caffene or not. She proceeded to ask me what caffene was. :facepalm: And to think... after all these years of warning me about how soda and coffee prevent me from sleeping she still has no idea about caffene. Also - We're going to (insert state name here that's not Virginia) to buy lottery tickets. (I swear she's addicted). - Anything made in (insert Asian country except Japan) possibly has (insert bad chemical here). We are an Asian family so I think this is funny. - You eat way too much. You're getting fatter. (I'm actually fairly thin). - Don't talk to strangers, chat with people online, take candy/money from strangers, etc. - Obama is a terrorist/Muslim/Communist. - You should listen to Rush Limbaugh and watch Fox News. Other news sources aren't as "reliable" because they support Liberals. - I still love my mom.

Busch Gardens Europe Advice
netdvn replied to Retro_Gaga's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Need some tips? Here ya go... - Be sure to hit all the big rides (coasters, DarKastle, and possibly water rides) as early as possible. This gives you time to spend the rest of the day enjoying the atmosphere and getting rerides in without having to wait in long lines. - LNM's station is designed in a way that makes it very easy to trap heat, so beware of riding it on hot days or when the lines become very long. - Crowds can seriously vary. I remember visiting on Saturdays and on holidays where the park was completely dead and on weekdays when the park was swamped. Always prepare for the worst. - Local Hampton Roads/NE North Carolina/Richmond area Subways carry discounts. Also I believe Farm Fresh supermarket bags have discounts as well. - Show schedules for the day are printed on the back of the park maps. - There is a restaraunt in San Marco before you get to the bridge that leads to Oktoberfest which serves pretty good food. You can also catch a really good show as well. - Haven't really eaten inside the Festhaus before, but the show is great fir families. ... Hope these help. -
"No more monkeys jumping on the bed!" ... Or maybe that was what the doctor said. - This is gonna hurt you way more than it hurts me. (when I got into trouble) - Don't eat too much junk food because its bad for you. - Cracking your knuckles gives you arthritis in the future. (I read in a medical magazine today that it doesn't really do anything helpful or harmful to your hands) - Stop collecting brochures!!! Its a waste of money for the people who print the things. And when we get home, you better hand them over. - You play too many video games. - You might get a stomachache if you eat Mexican. ... and today, "If you watch shows like Judge Joe Brown, it'll help you become a lawyer." I love my mom...

netdvn replied to sfmmFREAK's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Yeah I noticed that too. Turns out I was spending a little too much time here. I've tried limiting the time I spent here... Thanks... Dan's Theme Park Artwork Now back on topic. ben2008, you're extremely good at creating park maps. I've done quite a few park maps, but I sorta gave up on it because it ate up way too much of my time and I found myself messing up very often. I try to make them as detailed and perfect as possible. I swear I'll post an update sometime soon when I have the chance to finish the rest of my artwork. For now, I'll show off some of the maps I've done. They were too big to put through the scanner so I took pictures of them. Sorry for the crappy lighting on some of them. Overview Wild America... My oldest map. I made this in 7th grade. -

I HATE HATE HATE people who compare GH to playing real guitar. They're not the same! Honestly, I find it extremely rewarding when I beat a GH song because I suck. I seriously don't understand why people would compare GH to playing a regular instrument... I also hate it when people blame video games for the world's problems. Blaming GTA is not gonna end world hunger!

^ But 50 is still very young considering the fact that most people die in their 70s and 80s. Rumor has it that Michael took a bunch of pills and injections before he died and that he contemplated suicide weeks before. I also heard that he appeared weak, lethargic, and was sitting in a wheelchair whenever he made it to rehearsals. There was also another rumor going around in which Billy Mays wasn't wearing a seat belt during the landing and his head hit the luggage compartment. I heard a ton of rumors on the radio this morning. Still this is very unfortunate...
