^See that's what's cool and weird about all of us in the coaster community...seeing those pictures made me confident in my decision not to bother with PKI this year! To each their own! Elissa "cute idea for the cars...but they still look kind of cheap to me" Alvey

BTW...I woud only eat the Croutons from your salad! Elissa "and that's only if they had okay dressing on them!" Alvey

Yo newbies! Hope you like it here, make sure to PM us or post any suggestions or problems you're having. We're pretty hassle free here, and we seem to have a lot of knowledgeable members from all over the world here that can help you out! Elissa "and don't leave the toilet seat up!" Alvey

I think I would vote for Scorcher...simply because the woodies don't seem to be consistent. I mean, they're very good, but they seem to have on and off days/seasons. Elissa "Mindbender is also pretty awesome" Alvey

Yeah, that first night you could still do stuff! Even if it's not at the parks you could hit Old Town (300' Sky Coaster and Dragster Ride), get a good meal, do DisneyQuest, and maybe there are some parks open late, but I doubt it. Elissa "do you plan on doing Sea World at all?" Alvey

You'll need to call Six Flags over Georgia then and order the season pass over the phone. At Six Flags Magic Mountain they will ship internationally for an extra $14, not sure how they do it at Georgia. Worst case scenario, find out what price the season pass will be when you are there in April and just buy it at that park and you can use it everywhere. They never run out, or stop selling them. Also, you will have to get your picture taken at Georgia no matter if you order it in advance or when you visit. Elissa "have fun!" Alvey

From what I had seen and looked at I though that Dolly's Splash Country actually wasn't a really good waterpark. I mean it looked nice enough, but did it have a decent number of slides? Elissa "not just about quantity, but you gotta have some stuff!" Alvey

I really don't think there's a good way to explain just how it feels. You hear people say "Giant Truck, blasting, jello, etc.", but it just feels wrong! It's one of those things that you take for granted that the earth under your feet is solid...feeling it move all of a sudden is a really creepy thing. They also all feel different, depending on where they are, how deep they were centered, etc. Elissa "don't like them!" Alvey

Good! I'm glad they're getting a spinning mouse! This means I can put off going back even longer! Elissa "doesn't like spinning mice!!!" Alvey

Mummy is seriously in my top 20!!!! I don't know what it is, I just LOVE it! It's not an amazingly xtreme ride...it's just really well done and I appreciate it! Elissa "the hollywood one is a disgrace!" Alvey

Which park do you live closest to? Which park are you going to visit first? Let me know some more details and I'll tell you the best way to get your pass. Elissa "season pass expert" Alvey

^No, DaveTh is in Florida riding good rides! :? Elissa "wishes I was in Florida!" Alvey

Awww...I love that Hamster! It's almost as cute as RatTums! Elissa "still sick" Alvey

Got our plane tickets, hotels, and rental car today! Elissa "yay! That almost made me forget how sick I am!" Alvey

Dania Beach Hurricane. It's a top 10 woody! Elissa "maybe if it wasn't in BFE more people would ride it!" Alvey

^Glad to see you made it home safe! You were the talk of the weekend! Elissa "it's not often we actually get to meet coaster people from other countries!" Alvey

^Isn't that place finally closing down? Elissa "sick of people asking me 'did you ride that wooden coaster on the strip?'" Alvey

Oooo, I like the idea of blaming foreigners, but alas, I was already sick on Friday... Elissa "Hmm, who else can I blame!?" Alvey

They do look nice, though I agree with Kevin on most of his points...mainly: - Capacity - Capacity - Capacity The blasters had really bad lines at Schlitterbahn and while I realize there are 3 of them here, it's still not going to be pretty come summertime. They also do seem pretty short in length, but if they're fun that will make up for it. Typhoon Lagoon already has the shortest family raft ride, so why not some short master blasters! Elissa "looking forward to riding them memorial day weekend...note I said ride, and not 'waiting in line'" Alvey

I'm still holding out hope for a Captain America Hyper Coaster in Marvel Superhero Island! Derek and a bunch of his friends even drew up plans and handed them to their wait staff at Confiscos! Just think how cool that would be!!!! Elissa "Boo to flyers!" Alvey

Thanks everyone! You guys rule! Elissa "almost done with work so I can go sleep for my bday!" Alvey

I'm awesome, I have like 4 birthday threads!!! Elissa "and to think I'm not even celebrating it!" Alvey

DIE!!!! Although I didn't even feel this one which is odd since I've felt the other two "3's" we've had that have been centered in Valencia. I hope RatTums' is okay!!!! Elissa "needs to leave work and go check on my rodent!" Alvey

Where are you staying and eating!??! These are my two most important decisions when going to Vegas...the coasters are all pretty much a bust so it's all about the atmosphere! Elissa "highly reccomends staying at Monte Carlo" Alvey

Thank you everyone for your kind words! I think I'm feeling a bit better but that could also be the double dose of Advil and Dayquil Sinus talking!!! Eh, all in all, I'd rather be sick today and this past weekend with not much going on than on some cool trip somewhere, so hopefully this will get it out of my system for a bit! Elissa "I also blame Knotts!" Alvey
