Hi, I was wondering something. Which park model of swinging ships do you like the best? Which do you think are the best overall? Are there any specific ones that are run better by the park that you could mention? Any very well themed ones?
I tend to skip them, to be honest. Something about the motion of them tends to get me.
Sorry if the mods find this topic pointless.

I'm not too upset. The past two times I got it the employee was rude and the actual product was all melted and refrozen together.
And the first time, when I payed for it, she said "Go to the *coffee shop name* next to me and get change there if you want change, I'm all out of change."
You shouldn't train your employees to say that if they don't have the proper change. You should train them to take a loss. Expecting the customer to take a loss or go to a different vendor just to get change is kind of ridiculous.

Why does Aisa get all the record-breaking coasters while Cedar Point gets Dinosaurs Alive

I wonder if they even designed it themselves. Whose to say they didn't download it somewhere on the internet?
Oh well, its not like its an answerable question. Even if they did, there isn't a way to prove it.

Great TR. This is a place that I need to visit eventually. Every TR I have seen of it, it looks even better!

Hi! I'm considering going to Screeemfest at Canobie Lake this year... But I have a question. What do you do if someone is panicked or crying? Do you let them out through a special exit or something? I'm curious. I've never been to a scare event before, and I'm worried that I will freak out and start crying or have an anxiety attack.
Thank you!

Queston to everyone living in the states. Is the drink Pibb called Pibb or Mr. Pibb? I went to a restaurant and asked for a mr. Pibb and they looked at me as if i asked for a Mr. Coke. I cant get enough of that drink whenever i go down to the states.
It used to be called Mr Pibb, but its called Pibb Xtra now. Most people just call it Pibb, though.

Cranmore's was fun and only had a 10 minute wait.
Attatash's had an hour wait, same with their alpine slide. I didn't end up going on it.

I'm pretty sure I felt an aftershock the night before last night. Either that or a truck went by.

An earthquake hit the East Coast Tuesday afternoon, rattling nerves up and down the coast. The U.S. Geological Survey said the earthquake hit near the town of Mineral, Va. with a 5.9 magnitude , possibly the strongest quake to ever hit Virginia.
People reported feeling the ground move as far north as Portland, Maine, and as far south as Anderson, S.C. A Columbus, Ohio, government worker reported the building shook there, as well. The earthquake’s epicenter is located near the North Anna nuclear power plant. No damage has been reported at the plant, but two nuclear reactors have been shut down.
In Washington, people spilled out onto the streets. Three pinnacles from the central tower of the National Cathedral fell off, there are reports that two floors of the Pentagon have flooded, and a possible fire broke out in one of the Senate buildings.
I could feel it in Massachusetts. It was more of a rumbling noise for about 5 seconds, then a bit of a shimmy. Kind of like if a train went by.

Not knowing much about this park other than it has "the b&m sitdown with the big blimp building" and "that one car ride with the weird ferris wheel lift", would a re-theme of the park do it any justice? Is its placement good, where the crowds come from etc? I thought it had potential when I heard about the concept but clearly I was wrong.
The issues with the park are numerous. First, Myrtle Beach already has 2 amusement parks, Family Kingdom and NASCAR Speed Park. Second, from what I've heard, HRP/FMP were off of the main tourist areas, so lots of people didn't want to go out of their way, or went to Family Kingdom or NASCAR Speed Park instead. Another issue is that a third amusement park, Myrtle Beach Pavilion, had closed a few years before HRP opened. Myrtle Beach Pavilion was a smaller park with a lesser overhead than HRP/FMP too. Because of the sheer size of HRP/FMP, it requires lots of staff, electricity, Etc. And the local crowd generally goes to Family Kingdom, where it is pay per ride, so they can spend just a few hours there in the evening after work/school and relax, unlike HRP/FMP, where the park was admission only, and more expensive if you only are there for a few hours.
I'm sure there are other issues too, but these are the ones that I have heard about.

Recently I've been beginning to stock up on emergency supplies. Some water, some food, a first aid kid, the basics. I'm hoping to expand soon, so I can have at least enough food and water to last 2 people 2 weeks with no outside supplies. I was wondering if TPR had a thread for it.. didn't find one, so.. Here it is. Discuss preparing for, and dealing with, natural disasters, disease, chemical spills, warfare, etc. (Zombies? )
Some helpful links:

Well, if they REALLY want to give it one last start.. go ahead I guess
Its not like it will succeed. Just sell off the rides to other parks so they will actually operate.

This is early, but my money is on poor maintenance. I've never heard of an Eyerly Spider collapsing by itself before.

That's what you get from too much pills and liquor, Amy.

I have the gold edition. The original installs fine, but when I install the 2-in-1 disk, it gives me an error trapper. Help? I cant seem to find the patch that I read about on the Atari forums.
OS is Vista.
Here is the official Loopy Landscapes patch.
It should work. If not, I suggest re-installing.
EDIT - the Gold Edition is considerably older than the Deluxe pack, so it might not work period. But, I'm not sure.
Nope, that didn't work. It said I had an incompatable game or a different version. Thank you for trying to help, though!

That makes no sense. Whatsoever. This is a RCT2 thread, not a RCT1/RCT2 thread.
Edit- Besides that, the game is called Roller Coaster Tycoon, not Roller Coaster Tycoon 1.

I was talking about RCT1. Not 2. Whoever merged this, unmerge it.

This is amazing.. and.. honestly.. this has inspired me to loose weight. I actually ended up crying I was so happy for you. Even though Im nowhere near as obese as you (39.3 BMI), I still want to be healthy. Thank you for this. Thank you very, very much. And congratulations.

I went to Canobie Lake yesterday with my friend. First, let me explain. The advertising phrase for Untamed (great ride By the way..) is "Ride the Wild". Back to my story, while walking over to Untamed, I overheard a girl complaining to her friends...
Girl 1 - " Ugh, where IS that Wild ride? I cant find it anywhere."
Girl 2- " Im telling you *girl 1, forgot her name*, that was just a slogan!"
Girl 1- " No, im SURE they added TWO rides this year! Untamed and Wild!"
Girl 3- " I think *girl 1* is right..."
The hell is the world coming to. At least one of them had sense.

I haven't ridden many coasters, but, for me..
Steel - Arrow Corkscrews
Wood- ... Probably Wildcat at Lake Compounce. Its a lovely looking ride, but it doesn't have much for forces, and it is rough as hell.

Isn't the Erieview Frightzone for sale as well? I know some of the cars from Le Cachot were saved.
