Walt Disney World in Early November
alpengeist04 replied to coastermaniac's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The week before the week of Thanksgiving is a good time to go. This year it would be the week of Nov. 10th. The best time to go though would be after Thanksgiving weekend from Nov. 26th through the first two weeks of December. Also, the last couple of weeks of October is pretty good too with crowds. Minus the week of Thanksgiving, the middle of October through to the middle of December is my favorite time of the year to visit the parks. -
Golden Ticket Awards 2012 Results

Interesting that my top 6 wooden coaster is the same, just not in that order. This is more like it: 1. El Toro 2. Phoenix 3. Boulder Dash 4. The Voyage 5. Ravine Flyer II 6. Thunderhead How is any B&M hyper in the top ten, but i305 is nowhere to be found? ...Fixed. -

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

Well yea, I was replying to a reply about the article after all. As for the parks... I enjoy going to both, so there's really no reason for me to pick a favorite. -
Favorite Disney Park
alpengeist04 replied to America Sings Freak's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I have to admit that I have grown to appreciate all the Disney parks over the last 5 years or so. ...even EPCOT. Of the six US Disney parks I've been to, this would be my order of preference... 1. Disneyland- The better Space Mnt. and POTC, not to mention Indy too. ...need I say more. 2. Magic Kingdom- While slightly below Disneyland as my favorite, it's still in my top 5 favorite parks overall. 3. DCA- Cars land now puts this slightly ahead of DHS, even if Florida does have the better TOT. 4. DHS- Still needs another E-ticket. 5. DAK- The new Avatar land will be a much needed addition. 6. EPCOT- While last on this list, I still like the park a lot. -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
alpengeist04 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^Yea, it was a little odd. But overall, I really only disagreed with two of his picks. ...Raptor/Batman and MF/X2. The way I see it, from top to bottom SFMM has the better collection, while CP's top 3 (MF, TTD, Maverick) beats anything the Mountain has to offer. -

ROTM @ USF this morning. ...7 walk-on rides is always a good thing. -
Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread

Darn! Here I thought the question would finally be answered. ...What would rides be like on the moon? -
Would definitely like to see more details about this particular perk, ie how early and how often it will be available. They've kind of been testing it on Sunday's over the summer. I'd guess you get in at 10:00am vs. 10:30. Yep, I used my season pass from SFFT to get in at 10:00am last Sunday. I was able to get a couple rides in on Tatsu and also get a head start to X2 before the general public was let in.

Overall, I like the look of the new coaster. ...Though I could do without the backward launch to be perfectly honest. I know it's crazy, but I would prefer just the 2 forward launches. Like others have said, I may get my wish soon enough with that. As for anticipated coasters for 2013, I would probably put this at #5.

SFOT - You're Fired!!
alpengeist04 replied to caruss866's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
That pretty much sums it up for me too. I was there in June and really enjoyed my visit. To date, SFOG and SFOT are my two favorite parks in the chain. -

Favorite roller coaster?
alpengeist04 replied to Christopoll's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Without a doubt, it would be El Toro. Reasons: The Rolling Thunder hill, need I say more. Oh, and the first drop ain't too shabby either.
