  1. ^You have 666 posts, ma'am. I'll contribute: Not sure if it's been mentioned or not, but it tops the list!
  2. The picture isn't working correctly....try again? EDIT: Wow! Is all folds on a single piece of paper or are there cuts? Either way, awesome!
  3. "Does Elissa Alvey think that Prowler is a top 10 coaster? Check back later to find out." It looks like you've been having a blast so far. Are you going to be at WoF today?
  4. ^fair assumption. Are all 30 pieces of paper folded identically? How long did it take you? How many folds? Sorry if it's nigh impossible to know or not.
  5. ^^How many squares was that made of? How many faces? I personally can't get origami right. I always get it just far off enough to totally mess up the whole thing.
  6. Where would it go if the least it went was to the top of the tower?
  7. I'm partial to green But I like this too
  8. ^I did something like that. I open the envelope, pour it out and it bounced on the bed, and I thought it was a damn roach! Scared the ever lovin' crap out of me. Thank you! I am terrified of loud, sudden noises. Nuff sed.
  9. I got mine a few days ago. It's really more like first five people to read the thread because I don't think they last very long at all. Stay up to date with a TPR tab on all the time
  10. I does look purple now that I'm awake! It looked bluer last night. I swear. About the loop supports, did you add bracing to the taller one? It's a definite improvement to the first version! And I see pavement!
  11. Strawberries Wild Raspberries European Raspberries Grapes Apples Bananas Oranges Peaches Mango Lemon
  12. Robb & Elissa-Haven't you been to KCI?? It totally SUCKS and has next to nothing and is the most plain and nondescript airport evar!
  13. I guess that does count! And here I was being a skeptic. I cannot believe this wasn't mentioned earlier!
  14. ^The color settings are flawed. Never go by them...unless of course you got the patch. Go by the numbers....your coaster pulled a few too many lats for a kiddie/family. For your coaster being so small, it would be just as easy to heartline it by hand. Another useful tip, when hand building, divide the coaster's "track" segments in to 2-4 foot long segments. You can actually feel the control points. Newton2, AHG, etc. all divide up the segments anyway to get the best control over the heartline. When I use Newton2, I divide the coaster up into elements and any section where the ride uses it's momentum and gravity, I always use 1 meter segments and use 2 meter segments for lifts, MCBRs, station, brakes, or really anything that control of the heartline is totally unnecessary because it doesn't really change in a straight segment or an unbanked turn between straight segments. But, if the segment is straight, you must delete the control points between the end of the segment, but not curves.
  15. ^Oh, I'm very sorry! I thought you meant the other way around! I get confused quite easily, really. If I sound a little slow, I probably am.
  16. ^^Not so much launched, but kind of 'pushed.' The top speed is 45 mph, but that is when the train is facing forward. It felt kink of weak to me. All it has to do is push it down a small hill and off she goes, hardly at breakneck speed. I don't think a major roller coaster exists that really launches you. Mummy is kinda kicked, and Everest is just kinda dropped but has some boosters immediately after. Does anybody know of some crazy Japanese ride that launches you backward? Some kind of shuttle, maybe?
  17. ^Excuse Me? What is that supposed to mean?
  18. I think that this topic is a bit too touchy to be totally safe. I don't want to dive in.
  19. I *think* that a Batman was about 6.7 million USD in the early 2000s, so inflate that to today's economy (or lack of it, thereof) and it is in the 8.5 to 9 range. Or so my estemation says. EDIT: I think my math was way off. I shall excuse myself for my own stupidity.
  20. ^But a Boomerang was manufactured in 1982 for some Mexican park. It was actually the second to open, after the one at Bellewaerde opened in 1984. So...in the park's timeline 36 Boomerangs would be operating (Depending on the current time of year in this park). Why, I do not know
  21. Beautiful Title Fairy, will you please give me the most random title you can possibly think of?
  22. This is OT, but if you have it could you PM it to me?
  23. ^That'd be sad. 3 days and rumor has it that it's closed already. Shaky bet, kingsislandfreak.
  24. Why'd you release it here later than Nolimits-Exchange? Anyways, the ride is fantastic and I loved the way the launch started level and then the angle rose for the rest! Very fun ride! EDIT: What's Thunderhead Falls? It's not on Nolimits-Exchange. Where can I get it?
