Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
DougMJr replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Last time I was there (2009) Millie ran great, but looked kinda bleh... I'm not too picky, paint fades. Although if I recall Millie got some new paint recently on the lift? -
The Official iPhone Discussion thread
DougMJr replied to robbalvey's topic in Random, Random, Random
For those of you, like myself, who don't want to upgrade from your iPhone 4 just to have Siri... I have news. If you are familiar with jailbreaking you should be able to port Siri to the iPhone 4, as shown in these videos. http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/15/siri-ported-to-an-iphone-4-old-phone-learns-a-new-trick/ I take care of my things and my iPhone 4 is still like new, and Siri is the only new feature I want. I will defiantly be porting this when it is released. -
No - To busy with school and work! I'll have to wait until next season. Have you ever used your smart phone to do dumb things?

^In short... 1) Get there EARLY! 2) Start at the back of the park and work your way to the front, try soak city entrance. 3) Bring snacks so you can take advantage of short lines during lunch / dinner hours. Have fun! -
Parc Asterix Discussion Thread
DougMJr replied to sebastienstuff's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'm in love! I have a feeling that this will become many people's new #1 invert. -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

In a long line I'll lean on the handrail, but I usually never sit on them. An issue I see is children (and some "adults") treating the handrail like it's a jungle gym. Seriously... if you do that you look like a fool. -
HO-Scale Ride Models
DougMJr replied to jscott1234's topic in Roller Coaster Games, Models, and Other Randomness
Great job! The power tower model seems super realistic to me. How long does it take you to each model? -
Most Exciting 2012 Coaster...
DougMJr replied to RollerCoasterSmi's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^What is the status on that... I know Knoebels posted a POV with the new prototype chassis in june. I really want this thing to open, but I,m not holding my breath for a 2012 opening. -
Hersheypark (HP) Discussion Thread
DougMJr replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I don't think the yellow will stand out any more than fehrenheit's orange track... In fact, I'm a huge fan of the Lamborghini yellow track -
I am not a moderator, but I would like to point out that there is a more appropriate forum for this. http://themeparkreview.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=3

He was looking very, very bad at the time of his resignation last month. (TMZ posted a picture last month) May he R.I.P, he is easily my favorite innovator of this century. Too young, too soon.

Actual horror flick. Pulp fiction or a clockwork orange?

Photo TR: TPR's Northeast Trip
DougMJr replied to XII's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Awesome TR! I'm giddy with excitement for next year's trips! Steeplechase, if it's anything like Motocoaster at Darien Lake, is deceptively fun. Thanks for posting. -

Thorpe Park Discussion Thread
DougMJr replied to Rooey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^apologies. I suppose I misunderstood the article. Having never been to Thorpe Park I was unaware that these seats were already in place. Sorry about any misunderstanding. -
Thorpe Park Discussion Thread
DougMJr replied to Rooey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I saw this today and thought it was interesting. Apparently Nemesis Inferno's trains will be getting "supersized" to accommodate larger guests. What does this mean, a row with three seats instead of four? Two seats? Link -
B&Ms future launch and 4d coasters
DougMJr replied to krakenmaniac's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
B&M could pull something out of that hat that we didn't even think of. Perhaps the 4-D system they put in place will not rely on a parallel rail system at all, who knows! I just keep thinking about this concept that was at IAPPA, where a parallel rail is on top of the track. With this system you could theoretically get limitless degrees of rotation. -
Canada's Wonderland Discussion Thread

^Wow, they must have been out there early. -
Legoland Florida Discussion Thread
DougMJr replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^The Lego model of the Stratosphere tower was unexpected, and cool. The park is looking great!
