  1. Forwarding this to all my friends. For some reason they all want to take a karnival cruise. They wonder why I say hell no!
  2. ^So you are saying you do the corkscrews outside of newtown, and just do them by hand.
  3. I need some newton help. I am working on a re-creation of Viper at Darien Lake and I am stuck on the corkscrews. I'm wondering if there is a good technique to make a double corkscrew where the rotation does not stop in between. Sorry if this is a n00b question.
  4. ^ I agree with you in one regard, I would like to see them eventually look into the surrounding scenery as it slightly pales in comparison to the fantastic level of detail they are putting into the rides! Other than that, I have no idea what you are talking about (all the lingo). I understand that you are knowledgeable, but you come off a tad bit condescending. Pantera is putting a substantial amount of effort into this game for a relatively small market.
  5. The trains are better executed than I thought they would be. Those lights on the side should make for some interesting long-exposure photography at night.
  6. Probably since RCT came out. I used to put HOURS, into that game. Once I became old enough to go to the parks I think that solidified it.
  7. They really hauled ass on completing the second half of that layout! Looking good! Edit: To me it gives the illusion that the track is just kind of floating over the entrance. I don't know if it is just me but I love it!
  8. I think it is more likely that Darien Lake would just Scrap Cuda Falls and build another slide complex with the rest of the water park. But only when the time comes for another waterpark expansion, which I doubt will happen for a few years.
  9. I thoroughly enjoyed Giant Dipper at Belmont in San Diego. Wasn't as rough as I thought it would be.
  10. I didn't go to Darien Lake in 2012, but the bridge was there in 2011 for sure.
  11. I think the payoff on a lawsuit after lawyers take their cut will be very little when split between everyone involved. If Carnival really cared they would give all the passengers a free voucher for a cruise on RCCL.
  12. ^Is the rear bathroom overflowing and does everyone have sharpies at the ready?
  13. http://www.wgrz.com/news/article/201001/37/Crippled-Cruise-Ship-Being-Towed-in-By-Tugboats ^There is a live feed midway down the page.
  14. I'm hoping there is a ton of video released in the next few days. I want to see how life is on the Klassiest of Carnival Cruises.
  15. My first Arrow, and still one of my favorites, Viper at Darien Lake. It's my home park, but I find Viper smooth and the layout is unique enough.
  16. I love the keyholes! To me it looks as if the track is just floating through them. Even if this turns out to be just a big piece of scenery and not that intense of a ride I still think it is a good addition for Cedar Point.
  17. Off topic, the 8 seat el loco cars look HUGE compared to the track in that picture! On topic. I don't really have a problem with boomerangs. I like the ones I have been on. Yeah, Boom's colors are pretty Butt Ugly and hopefully this will fix that. And a new train couldn't hurt (as much). Has there been any KumbaK train installations on Boomerangs yet?
  18. Yeah, not a big deal. They will get them in place soon enough. I'm sure they used the time while the cranes were down to focus on other parts of the project.
  19. Awesome that they added another camera, now we can watch the station progress. Lookin good!
  20. Great PTR Marcel! After seeing the photos on Facebook I knew they would make a great PTR! Glad you enjoyed yourself!
  21. ^Oh, I'm right with ya! It looks like they are slowly but surely making progress, and I commend them for it. Really, this is unexplored territory. Re-creating that ride experience while simultaneously keeping up with today's safety standards doesn't appear easy.
  22. ^^This year will be the year!!!! Right guys!... right? Anyone?
  23. I'm pretty sure the only people that are disappointed are enthusiasts. Most of the GP commented something like a parade or concert of some kind. ^No, Six Flags still looks bad!
  24. ^ Eh, I thought it was an interesting watch. Couldn't he just talk normally though? I doubt speaking at a normal level would have increased their risk of getting caught.
