Virtual Magic Kingdom - Beta Testing
SharkTums replied to Sir Clinksalot's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
LOL! That fireworks game is pretty crazy! I did pretty well my first time, I'm interested in playing some of those other games and exploring more. Elissa "my only complaint is that it seems to run a bit slow..but I still like it!" Alvey -
Nice Report! I'm surprised SF hasn't sued them yet to take down that sign! Although I did buy my "World's Only Flying Coaster" shirt at PGA after Batwing, X-Flight, and Air were all installed and running! Elissa "glad you had a good time despite the crazy Sandusky Weather!" Alvey

^That's a great point! We learn from all of the videos too! I won't say too much about some of my favorites, but I have to comment that I loved the use of Classical Music in the Florida video this week. I've been playing that song on the drum game for the last few months, and I miss getting to play classical music on my violin. I'm really looking into using a classical song for a segment this year! Elissa "we can all learn a lot from each other! (god that sounded sappy!)" Alvey

As a former Florida Resident, I feel for my fellow floridians. I know how it feels to go up just for a day trip and have it ruined because everyone else has fastpasses from an early entry or now from staying at a hotel. That's one of the reasons I really liked the way Universal handled fastpass for awhile when they did the "7-9am" entry for passholders and multiday ticket holders. That was incredible! You'd be done by 10am with both parks!!!! Or, when Universal allowed 1day ticket holders to get one express pass at a time, multiday to get 2, and passholders to get 3 at a time. At least those systems helped out the locals. Disney has never been kind to Florida Locals, heck, I never even had a disney pass when I lived there for 10 years! All that being said...I'm so excited that they may make these changes. I LOVE the disney deluxe hotels, but won't usually stay at them because I don't feel that it's worth it...now that it will be worth it I'm excited! Elissa "Mmm Boardwalk Room Service Breakfast" Alvey

Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
SharkTums replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think because it just really isn't that 'amazing' of a park. They have a lot of issues with bad capacity, poor rides, and no queue lines! I think that as far as Paramount Parks go, it's in the bottom half. Elissa "but that's just my opinion" Alvey -
Memorable or annoying songs
SharkTums replied to Coasters 4 ever's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The music to Toyland Tours!!!! Once you get it in your head it won't leave!! Elissa "dammit, now it's in my head!!!" Alvey -
I would love to see video of that "running of the bulls" to Kingda Ka...I'm guessing it could be even more amusing than the one to X! Elissa "glad you got on!" Alvey

Have a great time! Elissa "and be safe!" Alvey -
There were a couple of shows I was on. If you're talking about the one where they followed me around to a couple of different parks it's called: Ultimate Guide: Roller Coasters, and I do not believe it's on DVD. There are some other random shows that I appear in that I think are on DVD. Elissa "there's a lot of crazy coaster shows!" Alvey

If you must know, I was walking and accidently kicked a magazine which fought back by slicing my toe open! Elissa "now try to guess which magazine!" Alvey -

Sorry...just had to share..I'm an admin so I'm allowed to complain in my own thread! Ooo, that gives me an idea...we should have 'Elissa's Pissy Moment of the Day' thread...that would be sweet. Elissa "MY TOE HURTS!" Alvey -

Okay...here's the deal: We're taking my Family to USF/IOA next week and I really think that my mom would like Mummy...if I can convince her to get on the damn ride! - She likes 'smaller' roller coasters - But they have to be smooth - She loves: Test Track, Dinosaur, Indy at DL, Space Mountain (although she thinks it's a bit dark) - She doesn't like 'big' drops - She doesn't like pitch black rides where she can't see where she's going Based on this, I do really think she'd like Mummy. If we sit in the front she'll be able to see the track and where we're going, there are no large drops, the first 'dark ride' part is great, it's not too fast, and it's glass smooth. So everyone please post and tell her to ride!!!! Elissa "whatever, I'll be riding it a crapload of times!" Alvey

As soon as we get them we'll be sporting them! Elissa "they come in next week!" Alvey

Yeah...I had to turn my head and cough while they did their thing. Elissa "all done now!" Alvey
