Snow, Rain, and ICE?!..and POVs?!!?
Carnage replied to PKI Jizzman's topic in Random, Random, Random
Yeah, but in Canada you all live in igloos. You're used to the cold. We live in log cabins deep in the forest, not igloos! Well in the civilized part of Canada at least. Calaway Park is in the frozen wasteland called Alberta. -
Canada's Wonderland 2007 Changes
Carnage replied to vistaway's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
$85 US. It's like $100 Canadian after taxes I think. And yes it includes Cedar Point and every other Paramount/Cedar Fair park. I'm not familiar with Belle River. Where are you located? Wether you take the QEW or the 401 depends on where you're coming from. This sounds like the restaraunt at Cedar Point by Raptor. I always liked that place, so this sounds decent. Edit: I just looked up Belle River. Are you seriously asking wether you should take the 401 or QEW to Cedar Point?? To take the QEW you'd have to drive like 3+ hours in the wrong direction. Or are you asking from PCW to Cedar Point? In that case it'd be quicker to take the QEW to Buffalo, and come down I80/I90. -
Happy Birthday TPR Forums!

I forgot TPR was launched on VD day. Now I have another excuse to drink until I don't feel feelings tonight. -
Anybody else watch hockey? (Amazing VID INSIDE!!)
Carnage replied to canada's topic in Random, Random, Random
Yes, though that's only part of it. The draft goes in opposite order of points. So the team that has the most points will draft 30th. Though the 14 teams that don't make the playoffs are drawn in a lottery to see the draft order. So the teams that missed the playoffs can draft anywhere from 1st to 14th. Now to confuse things even more teams that get draft pics via trades draft at the position that the original team would have. So say Philly trades Toronto it's 1st round draft pick. Toronto would draft wherever Philly would have. (which would end up being one of the first few pics). Clear as mud? -

Nothing serious. No concussion, and he'll be back in like a week. I only watched a couple minutes of that Kovalev montage. I got annoyed by the video showing the same play 10 times each. We saw the nice goal, don't show it us 10 or 20 times. Crosby is never coming to Toronto. To get a player of that calibre Toronto would have to fall to last in the league for a few years. And that's not happening anytime soon. -

B&M Magnetic brakes
Carnage replied to kaliboiryda510's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
To get even smoother they'd have to figure out how to prevent "square wheel" syndrome. Rides like Scream and Batman Knight Flight have had quite the vibrations to them. These rides can definetly NOT be considered smooth when they're not running well. -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
Carnage replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Quite possible. This is the boring stage of construction. Very little of what is going on right now is going to be visible on a webcam. Or really of any interest to many people. Concentrate on other things and then come back in two months. -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
Carnage replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
No, no you don't. It's February and everything is frozen. Testing probably won't start until late March. At least not full testing of the ride. Testing the power and compuer systems,etc will obviously be going on. -

Oh, I'm sorry for you. At least you don't cheer for the worst franchise. But you come pretty close. -

^ I did. Good and bad game at the same time. No defense at all in that game. Though I was glad to get a point out of it. We showed alot of improvement by coming back from that 3-0 lead. Though Crosby really didn't factor into the win at all. -

I'm not tired of the hype. He's the best player to play the game in a long time. I just wish he'd stop whining and going down like he was shot when clipped. His diving is taking attention from his skill. Him embelishing hits has to go. -
Aventure City : forbidden to adults without children !
Carnage replied to EricLovesTZTOT's topic in Ask Alvey
The one visit I had to that park I had no problems going in without kids. I highly doubt they are going to refuse your money. It's a pretty crappy park, so I can't see them enforcing such a rule. -
331 feet Giga Coaster coming to Heide-Park ?
Carnage replied to BDG's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Well, that's Ohio for you. Though I bet those people you're talking about still think TTD is the tallest in the world. If you build a 331 foot roller coaster in Germany, no locals are going to know or care that there is a taller one somewhere else in the world. They're still going to go to the park to ride the new big roller coaster. Only snobby coaster enthusiests will think lesser of a ride because it doesn't hold any records. -
331 feet Giga Coaster coming to Heide-Park ?
Carnage replied to BDG's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Besides, outside of enthusiast communities not many people know what the records are. If they built it, not many people in Germany would know or care that there was taller rides in the US. -
331 feet Giga Coaster coming to Heide-Park ?
Carnage replied to BDG's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Interesting. Hopefully that ends up getting built. I've always wondered why no giga coasters have been built since Millenium Force. -
It should be only true for TTD and MF, but it is not. Cedar Point is extremely inconsistent in their lose articles policies. It can vary during the year how strict they are. But I have been to the park when loose articles were not allowed in ANY line. I was told to get a locker for my bag before getting in line for Power Tower. They would not let me put it in the article bins provided. Not only that, but that weekend they would make you get a locker for any small stuffed animal that they sucker you into winning. I kept seeing people just throw these articles onto the ground in disgust at the entrances of lines. Now that was at the start of the season, which would explain why they were being super anal about it. But if you go to Cedar Point I would highly suggest not having any loose articles. Or if you do, make sure to have cargo pockets. Because otherwise you might end up getting very frustrated.[/i]

Goliath vs. Expedition Geforce

What if it's a trick coin with heads on each side? Because that really wouldn't be fair. Guess we'd need 10 flips with that coin. -
Goliath vs. Expedition Geforce
Carnage replied to Janster's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Does it matter what coin we use? Do I need to get an American coin? Or is Canadian currency alright? Am I aloud to re toss if I don't like the outcome? If the coin lands on it's edge can I make a write in vote for Snails?? -

Does it still give you the option to vote? You could have meant to hit view results and hit vote by mistake. -

Doesn't matter how many people you got it from, or how many POVs that you watched. You're still making a blind decision on something you have never experienced. It's not that hard to understand.
