SheiKra - Photo of the trains!
SharkTums replied to XLRBR's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Those do almost look pretty decent! Do we know how many of them they're getting? Elissa "they kind of look like Montu's long lost cousin!" Alvey -
Yeah...we were there on the 2nd day that they started the mandatory shuttle service for the 'summer' season. It was more crowded that we're used to, but nothing like during the summer where you can't even do a trail without it feeling like you're on the line ride! The only downside is that it's too cold to go walking in the river and then tube back down which is what we do in the summertime! Elissa "at least everything wasn't closed due to falling ice like the last time I went in the winter time!" Alvey

In the future...we probably shouldn't post pictures like these with nudity...but this is soooo funny that I'll let it stay for now! Elissa "go ahead and use it as your avatar!" Alvey

Yeah for right now, we're going to stick with just the two of us. We're hoping we won't need moderators anytime soon since we seem to have a really well behaved group of members! If in the future we grow too big we'll definitely have to get some mods! Elissa "seems like we have plenty of awesome members keeping everyone in line!" Alvey

Yes...the Japanese are very careful and an accident like that will close that ride for a very long time. They also had an incident on their kiddie coaster last summer and that was closed for sometime as well. Elissa "I wouldn't be surprised if it never reopened" Alvey

LOL! Love the pix and captions! Is that damn Shakira track complete or testing yet??? Elissa "Duckity" Alvey -
New Coaster At Six Flags?
SharkTums replied to Goliathdude's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Some of you might be In Ta Men...but if you're interested in the ride manufacturing it's Intamin! Elissa "In Ta Both!" Alvey -

If I had to guess I'd say May Sweeps. Elissa "NBC needs some ratings!" Alvey -
Strange things at IOA
SharkTums replied to CoasterEricHP's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Um, of course I don't...I do know how supports work! They go through the building, with Spiderman being a DARK ride, you wouldn't even notice! There is so much being done now with sand and filling supports and track that it wouldn't vibrate, nor make noise. Elissa "I said it's possible, not probable" Alvey -
Montu...it's the best of the neutered coasters...but it's still a shadow of its former self. Elissa "and of course all the coasters that Six Flags as screwed up the restraints on" Alvey

Time to open up that Wings place on I-Drive! Elissa "but what would I eat!!!" Alvey -
New, Different Kind of Video Contest
SharkTums replied to CoasterFanatic's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^No...but we dont really have time to do half the things that you listed so why not add one more! Elissa "maybe I'll give out my wedding footage and get some cool wedding videos for free!" Alvey -
Strange things at IOA
SharkTums replied to CoasterEricHP's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^Thank you! Think about all the big empty space on top of Spiderman...or in that area between Marvel and Toon Lagoon. Think about how wrapped around Hulk's Queue and Station/Exit and lockers are. Obviously it's easier to build where they have more room, but don't say they don't have the room to put it there. Elissa "please not another flyer!!!!" Alvey -
Port Aventura is a very nice park. I don't think that the new drop ride is taller than Blue Fall. Elissa "I can't believe no more B&M's like Dragon Khan were built!" Alvey

New, Different Kind of Video Contest
SharkTums replied to CoasterFanatic's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
That is very interesting...not this time around, but I like that idea for future contests. I just wonder how to go about doing it so it's fair to everyone. Like we send out a DVD of .avi's or some neutral format that everyone can deal with in their own way or something...It could work. Elissa "are others interested in this idea?" Alvey -

I believe that they don't have a height restriction, it's more of a "how many flashy lights do we have to put on our ride" restriction. Elissa "doesn't Doom have lights on top?" Alvey -
NEWS: Launched Like A Rocket - Powder Keg
SharkTums replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I knew it was 'soft opening', I was more confused that an empty 'testing' train hit a train full of people. I guess it was the first train out of the day or something. Elissa "fix it now!!!" Alvey -
DUDE!!! So they messed up with the voting numbers and are redoing the damn show tomorrow (yesterday's performances and some new ones) then revoting, and showing the results show Thursday. Either way this is bad...they are either stupid enough to mess up, or stupid enough to think this is a cheap way to get an extra show in! Elissa "one of the people they screwed over wask Mikalah!" Alvey

BowFlex or CrossBow by Weider? Fitness Equipment.

We have a recumbent bike in our living room. And we go to Gymnastics class once a week. Elissa "I prefer eating to working out!" Alvey -
I really hope that some of those are fake...if not, we have a lot of spiteful parents in the world! Elissa "going to be careful when naming my kids!" Alvey

They are under the launch tube. Elissa "you'll find them" Alvey
