Iamb a little bummed I didn't get a chance to eat at Mythos until earlier this year when it was already on its down hill slide. The inside was nice and the food was ok. I think there may be something to lack of upkeep and a future Potter expansion. Why spend the money when you're going to tear it out anyway.

Missed Credits: Coasters you COULD have...
gisco replied to RIP Psyclone's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ I waited that 3 hour line for eejanaika. I was lucky because I had already been to the park before and all the credits but one. I'm not sure I would have waited if that had not been the case. -

All these German Fairs and carnivals look so cool. -

Yes to the hot cinnamon bread. I think I better start a diet now before going to the park next year! -
What is black and white and black and white and black and white and black and blue? A penguin rolling down the stairs!

Matt has been to Magic Mountain several times and Ninja has been down and I believe he had all the other credits at the time. On the brite side, there is 3 more credits for him now! -
Thats actually quite impressive going on Speed 20 times in one day. I don't think I could do that on most rides let alone Speed. Glad you enjoyed your time at the park, did you manage to get on the bunny rabbit rave train ride? On the 2006 TPR trip, my daughter rode like 15 or 16 times in a row during ERT. That was way more then I rode.

Am I the only one who finds it awkward that they play the games in middle-school gyms? The Elementary School was booked!

How did I miss a famous Chuck report! I wasn't all that impressed with the Air & Space Museum on the Mall. I think I would like this one better. I love looking at all the planes.

PortAventura Discussion Thread

The footers are to close together to be a Giga coaster. -
^ So what your saying is that if they had been going 100mph the accident would have been just as bad Because the speed wasn't much of a factor? I'm talking about the number of cars involved and the damage done. The death was tragic and could have happened when the cars were only going 180mph. Granted, speed isn't the only issue here but it is a major reason when 15 out of the 34 cars were involved. Other issues being to many cars on a short track and a track that can handle the extreme speeds of the cars. Dial down the speed of the cars a little to give the drivers a split second more time to react. Flatten out the turns so the drivers can't go balls out all the time and make the number of cars dependant on the size of the track.

Photo TR: Najaarskermis Hoensbroek(NL) 2011

I hope you can solve this problem in the future. I love seeing your pictures here. -
Photo TR of Asia (1/22 - a favor to ask!)
gisco replied to JDo217's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I checked your photos and none of them seem to be that large, at least not the ones coming from Flickr. All you have to do is resize them to around 800x600, the prefered size, and that should shrink them enough in size. When you deleted some of your photos, it caused the white box to appear. This is why we do not feature reports in the park index or the front page if they are not on the TPR server. -
Hersheypark (HP) Discussion Thread

Nice update on the construction. Can't wait until next year when I will hopefully get a chance to see this park! -
^ & ^^ You guys are clueless about business. Cars 2 would have been made with or without Disney because Cars was a huge success. The goal of the company is to make money because the company is owned by stockholders and they want a return on their investment. If the company doesn't make money, the value of the company goes down and the Board of Directors would probably be replaced. So If the choice is to spend millions on something that is proven or go with something that is totally new, which has a better chance at returning their investment and making the company more valuable?

Guess that leaves us out, huh?
