Carnage

There was nothing illegal about that move. He didn't stop moving, it was one fluid spin move. There's nothing illegal about changing directions. Besides, I'm sure you'll see that exact move done about a dozen times during the year by various players.

I missed it. When it got to 4-1 I switched to Halo Reach. Checked my fantasy team later to see that we came back to win. Good for the Leafs, kind of good for my fantasy team as well, as I have Semyon Varlamov.

Washington might end up in a similar situation as Chicago this past off season. Too many young players with expiring contracts due for big raises. With the salary cap they will need to pick who they keep, and who goes. They might not have enough cash for all of them.

That wouldn't have even got you standing room in Toronto.

^ I always go to gamefaqs.com when I need help. I was playing New Vegas, but I kind of got bored of it. It just doesn't do as much for me as Fallout3 did. Hasn't really drawn me in, and I don't find the world nearly as interesting to explore as Fallout3. So far the game seems to be really dragging on.

Maybe he'll retire for real this time. He was "supposed" to retire a few years ago.

You can probably thank all the season ticket holders for that. Leafs tickets are hard to come by for the average fan. And even if you can get them they tend to be too expensive. I've turned down plenty of tickets from work simply because I don't feel like paying $70 a ticket for nose bleeds. It's no surprise then that we flock to Buffalo, and other nearby cities. I don't know. There's going to be alot of resistance to that. GTA would be the best location for a team, but I'd imagine some other cities might be more attractive to the league that wouldn't involve as much of a fight. Toronto and Buffalo just aren't going to let a new team walk into their territory.

The Scarecrow hallucination levels were totally messed up, and totally awesome. In particular the 1st encounter triggered in the morgue. Totally creeped me out. My favorite parts of the game was probably the stalking segments. Big open room, lots of henchmen, and you gotta pick them off one by one in stealthy take downs.

I found the one at Canada's Wonderland to be bad, but bearable. The one at Rye was a complete piece of crap. It's the rattling and face smashing in the turns that get you. Plus a completely uncomfortable restraint system.

Enjoy it while it lasts, I have a feeling they will have another craptacular season. Whether they keep it going, and whether they make the playoffs obviously will still be up in the air. But I think this team is improved enough that they should not repeat last years performance. I don't think we'll finish 2nd last again. Not having awful goal tending will help quit a bit in that regards.

^^ Still early, but I'd say Reach could be the best game in the series. It's definitely more challenging then the others. It's great to be able to fight elites again. MUCH more of a fight then the brutes.

It's been years since I've been to the CNE. It's just not the same without Doppel Looping.

I found the learning curve on mirrors edge really frustrating. It's really unforgiving. It has that look of being a really awesome experience, but gets hampered by often deaths. I've only played a few levels of it. It's sitting in my pile of "to finish" games.

Nice choice. I've got the same car. Or similar at least, I'm not 100% on the differences between Canadian and US trim models.

Super Flight @ Rye Playland. What a POS. And I thought the one at Wonderland was bad.

In fact, we filled an entire train, much to the amusement of the ops.

It must have slowed down a tad then by the time I got there on Tuesday. I thought it was just kind of average. Though it does have an interesting setting. To each his own I guess.

Typical construction. One guy working, three guys supervising.

I think Chuck might disagree after our ride.

I was there on Monday, but didn't realize Trimpers didn't open till 3. I assumed that the boomerang would still be closed. I guess I should have waited around 20 minutes after all.

How did they come up with the "Estimated 2009 incidents"? The wooden coaster & roller coaster "estimates" seem insanely high. 495 "incidents" on roller coasters? That's a pretty good stretch, unless they're counting every time someone gets off a coaster a little sore. Some "Estimates" seem too low as well. Like go-karts with 51 "incidents"? I'm sure there's got to me more accidents then that considering how many go-kart tracks are out there.

CCI became Gravity Group. They don't have any relation to GCI. That being said, I find GCI's are more about laterals and direction changes. They don't normally have strong airtime like other wooden coasters. They tend to have more of like whiplash type airtime. Kind of like the small little hopes that OzCat has at the end.

Well the resort hotels get you early entry, which can come in handy. And in my experience BE isn't that much more then other decent hotels in the area. But if you are more concerned about price then quality, you could probably find a cheaper hotel in the area. Sandusky is filled with hotels. But beware booking the cheapest room you can find, as you get what you pay for.

That hasn't stopped Marineland from advertising Dragon Mountain as the worlds largest steel roller coaster for the last 20 years.

Texas would probably be an option. Are you renting a car? The parks in Texas are much further apart compared to Florida.
