My name is Ramen Schneider.
I am 16 years old and I am a 2-year veteran of the No Limits Coaster Simulation software. I say veteran but I still have a really long way to go... I only mean that I have gotten a lot better at it since I got it for Christmas in 2007. Keep an eye out for my custom rides!
I live in Cincinnati, OH, which means my home park is the great King's Island in Mason, OH. I have only rarely been there, however. I did go on opening day this year to ride Diamondback-- and OH what a rush!
My favorite park is Holiday World in Santa Claus, IN, if for no other reason than it is the home of my favorite roller coaster in the world: THE VOYAGE!!! I have lost count of how many times I have ridden it, around 80 times, and my record for one day is 11. I tied that record very next day. That was last year. This year, next month, to be exact, is my next trip. I hope to break that record. First I will get my annual credits on Raven and Legend, then I will head to the Waterpark, because my parents are forcing me to, and then I will spend the rest of the day on the Voyage! Keep an eye out for a topic, I will also have a live update on Twitter!
Also, next week (tentatively Monday thru Wednesday, only one day, however) I will be heading out to Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom. As soon as I get inside I will be making a beeline straight towards Chang, which will end up being my first ever stand-up coaster! Keep an eye out for these reports! Again, I will have live updates on Twitter!
I am a work-in-progress amateur musician, a one-man band.
I use Apple GarageBand to create, record, perform, and produce all my music (I don't actually play my own instrument, I'm trying to learn guitar).
I wrote the theme song for CoasterWarriors.com, at the request of Jeff Guilkey, the webmaster, with which he will make a music video in July. Look forward to that, too.
I got so many enthusiastic responses I almost fainted! Jeff told me that his friend, the webmaster of CoasterFusion.com, wanted a theme song after hearing the one I made for CoasterWarriors. I was shocked, but I joined CoasterFusion immediately so I could start learning about the site, maybe figuring out possible lyrics, and the overall mood of the site.
Which brings me to this: TPR, if you would like a theme song, I'm open.
Thank you for your time. I know, it's a lengthy post, but hey, I'm going for that first impression thing!
